RE: [asa] Coulter, and science

The term "liberal" is equivocal. Of course, the present, constant use
of the term "progressive" instead of the conventional "liberal" by many
must indicate that the word "liberal" is presently not very much
coveted. Jesus was God and His stand on social issue can be emulated
but not labeled by any humanly conceived term. For instance, we refer to
Him as Perfect Man, not just man. Why?

When I read this, I immediately thought of the late Henry Morris.

Henry espoused bad science and unthinking theology -- but he was a
gentleman and his Christianity showed itself both in his writings and in
private conversations. While I opposed him, and Duane Gish, I respected
both and considered Gish (whom I know better) a friend.

Ann Coulter's science is not as bad as that of Morris -- but what I have
read of her she does not appear to be a gentlewoman and, if she be a
Christian, it does not show through in her writings. I oppose her
tactics
much more than her political opinions.

I can think of no more reason to put a book of hers in a library than
that of Rush Limbaugh. There are those on the left I would make the same
assessment about -- IMHO she does real damage to the conservative cause.

Moorad al;so said: "There are more than sufficient established programs
and intent to institute new programs that tell us what the liberal
agenda
is. It is a religion, as Coulter indicates, since it is essentially
anti-Christian."

That is simply a silly statement, my friend. Jesus was a liberal, you
know.
