Now I never said anything about her authoring any doctrine, so I have no clue as to what the heck you are even talking about. Again, here is the transcript, what part of this is not clear to you?



Yes, she did back track when she "thought" about it because the Deutsch, who is Jewish was offended, as I too would be if someone told me that I needed to be perfected. This is an issue I take with religion in a more broad scope is that here we can clearly see that Ann Coulter takes the position that they, Jewish people, need perfecting in order to be like her, perfected. It assumes the position of superiority based upon religious belief, and if you can't see that, I don't know what to tell you.
FYI: All religions believe that others and their adherents are not perfect. I agree that we should all keep it to ourselves.

if there is one thing the post-moderns know...it's that nobody but them is right.

I don't presume to have a clue, but do not begrudge you the right to be equally clueless.

You were throwing around your opinion about everyone being wrong....except you, of course, who stated everyone else was wrong.

If you said, for example, that "Catholics are not very different from Baptists", you would be closer to the mark, even though they are still very different theologically, because their core belief is the same.
You win!

More people should feel threatened by those with a religious agenda...
I'm a Catholic but I have many evangelical friends and I can tell you that they are the Jews and Israel's biggest ally. You shouldn't believe all the liberal crap they feed you.

When was the last time you saw a Christian do anything remotely close to that?

--Hitler, 1 Feb 1933


Now, before you start quibbling, I realize that the above does not necessarily prove Hitler believed in the Christian doctrine--only in its usefulness. Unfortunately, you then have to ask, and answer, "usefulness for what?" Which leaves Christianity about as tarnished as it was to begin with.

Right. They are such allies that they want us to go back to Israel, right? Get everything in place for rapture. If these are my friends, I'd hate to see my enemies.
