[Vision2020] Coulter's Dream - from CNN

[Donovan Arnold]

Ralph,
   
  Jesus did not have many opinions about how to gain eternal life. He has one truth. He is the way. Nothing He has ever said has contradicted this stated truth. Yes, you can achieve eternal life by never breaking a Hebrew law, but there is only one Man that has ever done this, and his name is Jesus. If you can point out to me one other person that is without sin, please do, I would like to meet Him.
   
  Best,
   
  Donovan

  Don't get too cracked up, Donovan. Jesus had various opinions about 
how to gain eternal life. In order to get to heaven you have to keep 
the commandments of the Hebrew religion - wasn't Jesus a Jew? (Do you 
know how many there are?) And then, if you are rich, you must sell 
all your possessions and give the money to the poor (Matthew 
19:16-24). You will not be judged by what you believe but by what you 
have done. "... all who are in their graves will hear his [Jesus'] 
voice and will come out - those who have done good, to the 
resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the 
resurrection of condemnation" (John 5:28-29). Read also Revelation 
20:11-12. "See, I am coming soon; my reward is with me, to repay 
according to everyone's work" (Revelation 22:12). So again I say, 
Donovan, don't get too cracked up.

Joe,

What cracks me up Joe, is that Christ said He is the only way, yet 
you claim you can believe He is wrong and still be a follower of His. 
It is contradictory to logic.

You are arguing the impossible position, which is self 
contradictory. You are arguing that He is wrong but you believe in 
what He says, at the same time. You are arguing blue can be any other 
color of the rainbow and still be blue. It cannot.

"My objection is to Coulter's dogmatic, arrogant
attitude about the superiority of her beliefs over those of others."

Seems you are not disagreeing with her delivery, so you reject the 
validity of the message. What kind of logical error is this Mr. 
Professor? Seems you are right, this professor does have a lot of 
work to do in separating his emotions from the validity of the stated 
premise.

Best,

Donovan
