[Vision2020] Coulter's Dream - from CNN

Joe,
   
  She was reiterating the Dogma of Christianity. There is no salvation without the acceptance of Christ as your savior.  If you don't understand that fundamental fact, or don't believe it, you obviously are not a Christian. It is core dogma of the religion. 
   
  A mean vindictive person would wish for Jews to die, or parish. She said she wished the opposite, that they would accept Christ so that they can be saved. That sounds like more of a loving statement than a hateful one to me. 
   
  She was not singling out Jews, the commentator was because he was Jewish, she believes that all religions outside of Christianity are in error, as do all Christians. I think you will also find that followers of the Jewish and Muslim faiths likewise believe that followers of any religion other than their own faith is also in error. Christians want all people be saved, even if it is considered politically incorrect to do so. 
   
  Best,
   
  Donovan

She said that Christianity was Judaism "perfected." How does that not entail 
that Judaism is inferior to Christianity?

Sorry but I'm catching up on e-mail!

Ann Coulter should say, "Religious conflict and war is good, and that some people should not be saved."?

I think this is rather absurd that people are making a big deal of this. Ann Coulter did not say Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Atheists, all other non-Christians were worthless, or inferior for their beliefs. She didn't say other shouldn't be allowed to practice their religion. What she said was that the world would be better off if the entire world was Christian. Which from an empirical point of view, the world would be better off if it was all one religion. Secondly, of course Christians want all others to be Christians, that is a fundamental belief of Christians that only Christians can be saved. It is also the belief of many religions that their religion is the better, and/or only true religion. I am Catholic, the largest and most diverse church in the world, and our creed specifically states that the Holy Roman Catholic Church is the "One and Only True Church". 

If she said all Jews and non-Christians should die, and only Christians are deserving of rights, that would be outrageous. But to expect Ann Coulter's statements to say the opposite is true; the world is better off if it has religious conflict and we should want others to suffer eternal damnation, is suppose to be a more of an acceptable statement?

I think she was kind of set up with that question. It didn't matter which way she answered. 

Best,

Donovan

All-

Ann Coulter's books sell big time... She's laughing all the way to the bank. Carl Westberg is right on the money (no pun intended) about Coulter being "pure show business." The more outrageous her comments, the more publicity. It's so obvious she's deliberately aiming to upset people with extreme political incorrectness. 

What is disturbing is that many people really believe what she advocates. Millions do believe that the US would be better off if we were all Christians. Correct? What is more shocking than Coulter's comments, is that she is supported by a sizable fan base. She definitely speaks to a large percentage of the US public that admires her frank expression of views that they sympathize with. 

She is merely a symptom of a much broader problem in US society.
