If ANYONE has read Islamic history in the Middle East and Africa (and I believe Anne Coulter to be one of those REALLY smart women who took avid interest in history that affects us), they would understand that the modus operandi of the Muslims, when they entered a country, was to utilize a jihad as a means of gaining 'converts' to their religion. It was turned into a choice between life and death: convert and live, or denounce and die.

This was how Africa was conquered, this was how Islam was ultimately spread. This is history Muslims want you to gloss over.

What Anne said was no different than what Jonah said. The only difference was that she was in a subordinate position to Jonah. And oh yeah, Anne is female, Jonah male. Sorry, folks...I am not going feminazi on FR here, but I happen to have the suspicion that when it comes to making bold statements, sexism DOES come into play.

STICK TO YOUR GUNS, ANNE.

[let freedom sing]

Yeah, Anne, that's what I said. Stick to your guns. Don't apologize.

What Anne said was no different than what Jonah said.

"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity," --Ann Coulter

Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying, "Arise, go to Nineveh the great city and proclaim to it the proclamation which I am going to tell you." So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, a three days' walk. Then Jonah began to go through the city one day's walk; and he cried out and said, "Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown." Then the people of Nineveh believed in God; and they called a fast and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least of them. When the word reached the king of Nineveh, he arose from his throne, laid aside his robe from him, covered himself with sackcloth and sat on the ashes. He issued a proclamation and it said, "In Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let man, beast, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat or drink water. But both man and beast must be covered with sackcloth; and let men call on God earnestly that each may turn from his wicked way and from the violence which is in his hands. Who knows, God may turn and relent and withdraw His burning anger so that we will not perish." When God saw their deeds, that they turned from their wicked way, then God relented concerning the calamity which He had declared He would bring upon them. And He did not do it. -- Book of the Prophet Jonah, Chapter 3, NASB

Question #1: Do you contend that there is no ethical distinction whatsoever between Jonah warning Nineveh of God's impending judgment (leaving their response thereunto in their own hands), and Ann Coulter's advocacy of forced conversion?

Question #2: Do you contend that God specifically told Ann Coulter what to say, as He told Jonah?

Conversion by the Sword:
1.) Is unBiblical; and
2.) Doesn't work.

"It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life... And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father." -- John 6: 63, 65 KJV
