Are Ann Coulter's comments simply a rather blunt way to put official Christian doctrine?

In case you haven't heard, Ann Coulter recently said in an interview that everyone should be a Christian and that Jews were imperfect Christians. (Who had not fully accepted the entire Covenant laid out by God and refused to understand they didn't need the law if they only had Jesus.

Now the comments were deeply controversial, partly because of the undiplomatic wording, but also because of their content.

But I would like to play Devil's advocate.

Didn't Ann Coulter, in fact, simply state Christian doctrine? Jesus said one could only enter the Kingdom of Heaven through Him and that there was no other way. The value of tolerance for other faiths is not to be found in the Old or New Testament. In fact, the Old Testament condemns idolaters to death while the New Testament clearly states only Christians will be saved.

So is there a fundamental clash between Christianity and secular values?

Yes, there is much anti-Semitism in the NT. She definitely tells it like it is!

i did and she only says those things so people pay attention and buy her book i think shes not a true christian

Basically. We believe that Christ is the messiah, and the Jews do not. That, and the New Testament, is the only difference between Judaism and Christianity...

Maybe, instead of saying imperfect Christians, she should've said incomplete...not imperfect.

Of course there is a clash between christianity and any values that are coherent. All religions in the West have had to bow to secular authority and they do not like it. If they had their way we would be a theocracy.

Ann Coulter is, among other things, an anti semite. She has offended Jewish people.

Are Ann Coulter's comments simply a rather blunt way to put official Christian doctrine?

Do you really see the New Testament as anti-semitism? I was raised Jewish, but have converted to LDS. I don't see anything anti-semitic about the LDS church or the new testament.

For the record, I define anti-semitism, in it's purest form, is hatred of Jews simply because they are jewish. You're not saying that is the case are you?

Are Ann Coulter's comments simply a rather blunt way to put official Christian doctrine?

She didn't preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ.I heard her on "The Big Idea" say she believes Jews go to heaven without Christ.Just that they do it the hard way.Nonsense!Without Jesus there is no salvation!

I think it's just a brilliant way for her to sell more of her ultra-conservative Nazi propaganda. There's no press like bad press, and she'll surely be getting a lot of bad press before she is kindly shown the door.

She's finished. Look what happened to Carter for what he said about Israel in his book (which by the way was 100% facts)

Ann Coulter should be the last person one should seek for guidance of any sort. She is just a bi*** with issues and likes to throw hateful comments for attention because there's a lot of hateful people out there like herself who will happily buy her books. In a way she's smart, but in the end she's a bi***.

So if the Jews were God's chosen people but because they haven't accepted Jesus fully, God has basically just disowned them. So if God can disown people, is it possible that He will disown Christians for what they've done or not done?

Are Ann Coulter's comments simply a rather blunt way to put official Christian doctrine?

No it is all about the Father God Almighty! Yahweh! The old Testament is but a picture of His will! The new Testament is the perfection of His will! Shown in the life of Jesus Christ our Savior. The Jews simply did not accept Christ as that prophesied Savior, that was so that we the "Gentiles" who believe in Jesus as the Son of God might be saved as the "adopted" children of Abraham through the shed blood of Jesus Christ whom we accepted as our Lord the rest will play out in Gods perfect time.

Sure...and clearly even more of a clash between Christianity and proper etiquette. At least in people like her.

She's the kind of person who could stick her foot in her mouth and not even notice...

Are Ann Coulter's comments simply a rather blunt way to put official Christian doctrine?

To the person who said "she's not a true Christians."

You Christians love the phrase don't you?

You pull it out of you asses anytime someone embarrasses you.

Everything is fine and dandy, but if a proclaimed Christians sins, 'they were never really Christian'.

I think you hit the nail on the head--there IS a clash between Judeo-Christian-Islamic values and secular values.

This is why, in their (near) infinite wisdom, the Founders sought a complete separation between Church and State. Franklin made it clear that he could accept no dogma, Jefferson cut all the miracles and religious talk out of his New Testament, and Washington flatly refused to tolerate any involvement by priests and ministers in the new government.

Secular values say to tolerate all who do not harm you, that each blade of grass, nevermind other human beings, has a right to its life unmolested. This is in diametric opposition to those Abrahamic religious values that arbitrarily declare people (of color, or homosexual inclination, or lefthandedness, or different ethnic group, or different religious persuasion) as condemned to some lesser existence or to death at the whim of the religionist.

Only 10% of the population of the 13 colonies were adherents of any religion at all at the time of the American Revolution. This is a secular republic based on democratic principles. It's about time we began acting like it.

Ann Coulter is far too judgmental to be taken seriously as a spokesperson for Christianity. Does this sound familiar?

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone".

Coulter, like most leaders of the self professed "Christian right", ignores all Christian doctrine that doesn't support the root of their movement which is nothing short of greed. If He were to return today, my faith tells me that Jesus would cast Coulter and her greedy cohorts out of His Father's temple...!

Peace,

Of course there is a clash. Let me define secular values according to the statue of Daniel chapter 2. The statue of government represents occult philosophy,unrighteous laws,hedonism,intellectual arrogance,tyranny. Basically secularism is deception leading to idolatry and rebellion. Christianity is above tolerance. Christians are encouraged to love our enemies. However, part of God's love is protection,first from deceptive practices by unbelievers and secondly to save unbelievers from their own error. If unbelievers think christians are intolerant they should listen to the words of Jesus who said,'The gates of hell shall not prevail against the kingdom of God'.

She actually watered down the Gospel and still is slammed for it.Anyone that truly tells it like it is would never be as popular as she is,regardless of political bent.

Ann Coulter is bats.

Are Ann Coulter's comments simply a rather blunt way to put official Christian doctrine?

No this is not official christian doctrine. In fact, most of my christian friends were appalled by what she said. Most of us teach to agree to disagree on the small stuff. Its petty and stupid. I have never been a fan of her books and now will never pick one up. I think she just stuck a fork in her writing career. Oh well, maybe her parents should have taught her to think before she speaks.

RrN91- Would you like me to explain why people have said this about her? Right off the top of my head I can think of three reasons. First, Let he without sin cast the first stone. She is not without sin. Secondly,the term she used "imperfect christians" is a ridiculous statement because all christians are imperfect. Even if they did as she suggested it would still not make them perfect. Three, Jesus gave us one thing to do and yet some people have the hardest time doing it, Love one another as you have loved me. Simple enough right. It doesn't mean we have to agree with their religious views it simply means love them. We are allowed to tell other christians when they do not speak the true word and this is why people are saying she isn't a true christian because she is not speaking the true word she is spreading hate in the name of our Lord and trust me it sickens me more than it does any person of Jewish faith.
