This is fantastic, Patricia. Thanks for taking the time to place the words of the Bible up next to the words of Coulter so people can see the blatant disparities. Top notch work.

What a great post!

Even my husband, who I'm sad to report is a Republican, despises Ann Coulter. This is saying a lot. ;-)

The very sad fact is that the loud-mouth Christians are the ones who get all the attention and press, and the ones who also have (or had, anyway) enough strength to band together and sway government policy through elections. The real Christians, people like AmyH and Shush Now here on Vox, aren't busy ramming their ideologies down people's throats or even posting about how they heart being Christians. They're just good, kind people living good lives. And the fundamentalist Christians are also the ones who can't see just how closely they resemble the militant fundamentalist Muslims they want to exterminate/defeat/stamp out.

And I wonder, why can't humans just strive to be good people without adding a religious label?

First - I am sooooo flattered to have a starring role in one of your amazingly written blogs Patricia. I admire your point of view on so many things, and always learn something when I come here to read. Thank you my friend.

Second - you are so right about A.C.... she is just the type that makes me angry on so many levels as a christian. Christian is not synonomous with "perfect" or "the voice of God"... it's being faithful and obediant and tolerant. It can be as simple and complicated as that.

Thanks again for such kind words. :o)

Very good point and very good post!
Brilliant, BRILLIANT post!

I second what everyone else who has already commented said.
Ann Coulter is just making money and lots of it. It's Hitler's words which are the scariest. When I researched this, I had no idea he'd said half of that. The similarities to the Bush Administration etc.and some stuff we've been hearing on VOX lately, gave me goosepimples.
Thank you very much, Tamzen. I'm complimented and very honoured that you liked it so much.
Hey, nice to see you here- thank you for stopping by. Are you off your break now, or still on a hiatus? If so, I'll stop by the other blogspots you mentioned....
Thank you. I hope you're enjoying your new home. My closest friend in Greece just moved this week into a new home, too. It's exciting, but a lot of work. I bet your sick of seeing cardboard boxes!

"And I wonder, why can't humans just strive to be good people without adding a religious label? "

That's a million dollar question, isn't it? I've known some people who say they are atheists, but have more religious values than some who go to worship every week.

Thank you. I'm really glad you liked it and I appreciate you stopping by.
I have to admit, I worried whether you would be pleased or not. I thought of warning you before I posted.But after your "Top Ten List" and the post you wrote about LOL- "Asshat's" - child support payments being in arrears, I thought, I have to let this woman know how much I appreciate her courage. Plus I'm sick to death of people- not just Coulter Christians, mind, but all the denominations who think they're are better people just because they chose a religion and for no other reason..
Oh, I just came back - and posted a contest, of all things!
thank you for asking -- !!
If you're intersted in the other sites, they're in my links-- a couple of them are just silly stuff
I'll go over and look at the contest and the other links! : )
is it bad that i think that ann coulter is only so famous and popular because she is striking looking? i mean, honestly. if it were some hideous woman, i doubt she would get the attention she does.

she is so ignorant.

great post again, as usual. :)
It's something to think about, I agree; it's what came to mind while reading your post. I don't know why being a good person has to be labeled with anything, religious or otherwise. I think that people should strive to be good (realizing that this is a VERY subjective term), regardless of how they choose to believe/worship/whatever. I just don't think it needs to be intertwined with anything else.

You are not Ann Coulter because you clearly use reason and logic.

I wasn't fooled for a moment!

Amen! One of my favorite authors was being interviewed by a radio host who said something disparaging about Christianity. The author responded by saying he refused to defend something that means so many different things. You can say I'm a Christian' to 10 different people, and have 10 different ideas of what that means. The author went on to say. I'm not going to defend Christianity, I'm going to tell you that I love Jesus, and am doing my best to live like him in my world. I find I end up with that same sentiment. When people like Ann Coulter can claim the same faith I do, I end up almost apologizing for my faith...going out of my way to say 'I hope that's not what I'm about' so I've just come down to the place of saying...I love Jesus, and I'm going to do my best to live like him in my world.
I'm thankful you and Ann are not the same person. I'd have to stop respecting you if you were Ann, and that would make me sad.

No, I don't think it's "bad," I think it's smart. I am not really sure if she actually belives any of what she's saying, but she knows it'll make a buck. She gets more making appaearances than she does writing columns. She also dated one of the sleaziest politcians I've ever had the displeasure to interview. I found it ironic ebcause she talks about Judaism the same way she talks about everything else that's non "Christian" and he was Jewish. They were cut from the same cloth. Anyway, this post is really not totally about her per say, but about the idea of certain people hiding behind "Christianity" to make other people with different opinions than theirs feel bad.

Wow! Who was the author? Great quote. I'm glad I'm not Ann, too. (But, I do like her blouse)
So true, Patricia. You are the same. You're both female, after all. As to right wing Christians, well there's a nice oxymoron if ever I heard one.
Thank you for stopping by. We haven't met yet. I went over to your blog just now and loved the book description you posted. It ties in well with this subject, coincidentally. I'm on a work deadline this month, but as soon as I'm done, I'm ordering that book on your recommendation. Thanks! : D
Still up to sword fights with the 'Coulter Christians,' my friend? I'm glad the short 'Crusades' you were subjected to on your blog last week didn't put a cramp in your style. Must be whatever's in that home brew of yours. Good stuff it be. ; D

Hee hee. It's irreverent, I know, but you just reminded me of Mae West's old line, "When I'm good, I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better."

Uh- oh. I must be getting hungry. Time to log off and eat dinner. : )
