Ann Coulter Shocks Cable TV Show, Declaring 'Jews Need to Be Perfected by Becoming Christians'
FOX ^ | 10/11/07 | Unknown

Posted on 10/11/2007 10:36:00 AM PDT by Froufrou

Slash-and-burn columnist Ann Coulter shocked a cable TV talk-show audience Monday when she declared that Jews need to be "perfected" by becoming Christians, and that America would be better off if everyone were Christian.

Coulter made the remarkable statements during an often heated appearance to promote her new book on advertising guru Danny Deutsch's CNBC show "The Big Idea."

In response to a question from Deutsch asking Coulter if "it would be better if we were all Christian," the controversial columnist responded: "Yes."

"We should all be Christian?" Deutsch repeated.

"Yes," Coulter responded, asking Deutsch, who is Jewish, if he would like to "come to church with me."

Deutsch, pressing Coulter further, asked, "We should just throw Judaism away and we should all be Christians?" She responded: "Yeah."

Coulter deflected Deutsch's assertion that her comments were anti-Semitic, matter-of-factly telling the show's obviously upset host, "That is what Christians consider themselves: perfected Jews."

“Is she dating Andrew Stein to save him?”

You reckon a glimps of heaven will convince him?

Amen, there is no other way. Even though they are God’s chosen and have a covenant with him he will judge them last at the end times at which time they had better be on the right page.

Media Matters is the instigator for this story.

Great. Just fine.

Another hit job. They are clearly targeting every single mouthpiece of the conservative movement. We aren't even sure what was said in the article was accurate now. No matter what Ann Coulter says now, this hit piece will be brought up. This marginalizes her. They can't shut her up, so they go for the dirty tricks. This is Hillary Clinton's deal all the way.

Folks, this is just the TIP of the iceberg. Major crap is coming all of our way. The democRATs are out for blood. Yours.

Hello! The billions of people professing faith in Jesus Christ believe that, too.

By definition, a Christian is someone who believe that the Mosaic era ended and that Jesus Christ came into the world, established his church, and through Jesus all must be saved.

I don’t believe Muslims, Buddhists, nor Jews (I.e those who follow Judaism) will go to heaven. I believe Christ is the way -

Act 4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

Act 4:9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

Act 4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, [even] by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

Act 4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

I am amazed how easily self described non-Christians can be offended by essential Christian doctrine.

Whats it to them since they've chosen not to believe? And why do many become infuriated because there are those that choose to believe?

It's the ongoing attempt in recent decades to elect legislators and appoint judges who would write such beliefs into law that is worrisome to non-Christians - and no less so than with Muslims trying to do the same thing with Sharia law.

The issue of "forced conversions" comes up mostly in discussions of the Reconquista, and its completion. That's when Hispanic politicians in Spain gave Jews and Moslems the choice of adhering to Christian standards, or get out.

Most of them decided to convert and stay.

The correct word is "coerced" not "forced", and unfortunately "forced" is frequently replaced with "foist" by speakers who want to soft-peddle their criticism.

Using "foist", BTW, means you consider Christianity an illegitimate religion ~ maybe some kind of mumbojumbo magic or whatever ~ so don't use "foist" (not ever), and replace that "force" with "coerce" ~

Remember, the original point of the Inquisition was to assure the correctness of the beliefs and behavior of the newly converted Jews, Moslems and anybody else who got in the way of the Hispanics.

Amazingly, when you look at the religious affiliation of members of the House of Representatives and the Senate, you find the Jewish cohort leading the way to admit even more Hispanics to this country, particularly from Mexico which has actually burned Jews at the stake since the founding of the United states.

Unless that little problem is dealt with (the apparant infatuation with the Hispanics) I really don't think it's time to suggest the rest of us have been sinning when we go out and "force" Jews to convert (which I don't believe has ever been done in this country).

Might come up with the name of someone "forced" to convert in the USA ~ I did some serious searches and couldn't find a single person.

She reminds me of a political version of Brittany Spears. A train wreck happening whenever she opens her mouth.

Well, we woundn't want anyone to be upset. How un-PC of Ms. Coulter! She dares to counter the sedating of the populace via political correctness. Shame on her - for the umpteenth time!

Actually, WAY TO GO ANN!!! You've ruffled the dingy, dull feathers of another PC DoDo bird.

Reporter: Who are you?

Jesus: I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)

Reporter: But I am a follower of Zeus! Are you saying I have to follow you!

Jesus: Oh sorry...I didn't mean to offend you. Uh...all religions have their own unique way to find God. Just follow your heart, learn to love yourself, and you will find the you that is really you.

Note: the above is an absurd parody to illustrate the absurd.

Jews have always accepted converts from the Gentile nations. Uriah the Hittite, Rahab, Ruth, and a few others I cannot remember off hand. The early Christians had a great discussion over whether a person should first become a Jew and then a Christian. Paul essentially said “come as you are, don’t change a thing”...............

She could have added that a person can still be a Jew and a Christian..........

Do you really believe that? In my experience when a Jew embraces Christianity the only people who continue to respect their Jewishness are Christians and other Jews who embraced Christianity.

I maintain for all practical purposes there is NOTHING she could have said to keep from provoking Talmudic Jews without actually denying her faith.

“This idiotic remark by her, even if it is a joke...”

Why would you think it’s a joke? She’s spot on. The only thing idiotic is that so few people have the guts to speak the truth anymore, and even fewer can bear to hear it.

I stated on another thread that few of us warned freepers that Anne Coulter is an “attention *****” and she really does go over the top on many issues. This idiotic remark by her, even if it is a joke, is stupid beyond belief, and smart conservatives should not come to her defense. Let her be marginalized, the Republicans and Conservatives do not need her stupid over the top rhetoric during the next 12 months of the Presidential elections campaign.

Christ did not mince words why should a follower of Christ? Is it not Written that it is the Will of God that all be saved... and that it is only through Christ salvation is offered. What part of that did God through Christ water down?

I guess you are offended that christians should participate in the democratic process. Tough sh*t.

The bottom line is that the blood of Moses will NOT save the Jews eternally, and their keeping of every Commandment will NOT gain them entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven.

ALL have sinned and have fallen short of the Glory of God.

Only the Blood of Jesus Christ, and believing in Him as the only Son of God, the one True Messiah, can save a human soul from being lost eternally.

Jesus said ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one cometh unto the Father except by Me’.

God Bless Ann Coulter, she dared to speak the Truth.

Deutsch, pressing Coulter further, asked, "We should just throw Judaism away and we should all be Christians?" She responded: "Yeah."

Would it have been better for her to say "Jesus said, 'No one comes to the Father except through me.' Since I don't want any Jews in heaven, I don't want them to convert to Christianity."?

I didn't see anything in there about Ann threatening to chop Deutsch's head off if he didn't convert.

Slash-and-burn columnist

So when are we going to start calling reporters "slash-and-burn reporters"? I'd say whoever wrote this fits the bill.
