Some are, some aren't, just like conservatives.
It always amuses me when folks are clueless enough to claim that "liberals are atheists" at the same time that they rant loudly and often about liberal churches who oppose the war and so forth. Who do you think *goes* to those churches, son? Liberal Christians!
And so far not a single one has stepped forward to counter the arguments in Ann Coulter's book.
You're kidding, right? You've been spending too much time in the echo-chamber -- get out of FR for a little while and go have a look at some of the liberal blogs. Whether you agree with them or not, it takes a remarkable amount of ignorance to say that none of them have "stepped forward to coutner the arguments in Ann Coulter's book". They most certainly have.
Their silence is tantamount to an admission she's made her case.
Your deafness is tantamount to an admission you're wearing earmuffs.
Liberals focused on a few words about the Jersey Girls because they can't honestly refute the argument about who they are with facts. And like with atheists in foxholes, there are few atheists in America.
NICE OF YOU TO CONTRADICT YOURSELF.
If there are "few athiests in America", then how can the 40% or so of Americans who are liberals all be "atheists"? That would be more than just "a few".
So if liberals believe in heaven, they haven't shown it. In that sense, Godless is this century's intellectual tour de force.
She's just reinforcing your prejudices by parroting many transparent falsehoods, and you're lapping it up. That doesn't make her an intellectual.
Which ones are you referring to?
Do you mean such things as the adult stem cell research that has led to remarkable results in the medical field?
Or perhaps the embryonic stem cell research which has led to ummm...nothing so far?
Presumably by now you have actually read the book.
Why then would you mischaracterize it and omit the portions where she actually makes claims about that are so far are unrefuted?
Please acknowledge that you have not read the book in order that I can ignore you with a certain peace of mind!
