Let me first say I have not read this book, and since I'm now in blood pressure medication it's probably a good idea that I don't, but I found this piece about author Ann Coulter and her latest eplistle of hatred, "Godless, The Church of Liberalism."
Keep in mind, this is the person who suggest after the 9/11 attacks that "We (the United States) should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."
Despite this painfully obvious non-christian idea, she claims to be a Christian and an April, 2005 profile in Time magazine said she attended a Presbyterian Church in Manhattan. Too bad the communications and media director for the church can't recall seeing her. Hard to imagine someone with as big a mouth as Ann Coulter being a quiet pew warmer, isn't it?
In an interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network's 700 Club, she accused the Democratic Party of faking belief in God to win votes. Sure, and Republicans like Ralph Reed, who is implicated in the Jack Abramhoff bribery scandal along with former Congressional leader Tom DeLay--those guys are a portrait of sincere Christian faith.
Coulter also claims that "Christianity fuels everything I write."
People like Ann Coulter make me physically ill and are a hinderance to Christians who actually practice a sincere faith and try to lead others into a relationship with Christ without invading another nation.
Robert Parham of the Baptist Center for Ethics has a great quote in this piece. ""Authentic Christianity is not a weapon with which to bash political opponents," he said. "It's not the sole ownership of a political party. It's not gimmick to sell books."
Parham also said "history is littered with those who misused Christianity for all kinds of selfish and harmful reasons."
Come to think of it, litter would be an appropriate description of Ms. Coulter's books.

Even many (or most???) branches of the KKK claim to be a form of Christianity. False prophets and the false church have taken many forms (and they continue to do so).
ReplyDeleteperhaps she, ann coulter's ideas have merit as any one knowing the history of muslim brand of evangelism and treatment of muslim converts to christianity would justify saving the religion out of existence before they save us to death, you IDIOT, use your head.
