"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity," You've got to admit, that's a bit on the extreme side. The first two comments are OK, but I'm sure a lot of people would have a problem with the last remark. Many people believe in God, but not all of them are Christians.

You make a good point, but consider: in Taliban territory, you're either a Muslim or you suffer dearly. When I read Ann's column, I got the impression she was saying (at least in part), let's do to them what they want to do to us.

" Many people believe in God, but not all of them are Christians." But then they don't really believe in God, do they???

Doesn't anyone else but me see the "tongue in cheek" satirical nature of that comment?

I'm wondering exactly how one would use force to convert someone to Christianity. She doesn't seem to have a grasp on Christianity, or clear thinking in general.

Being a Christian, I would no more want those people in my religion as I would hyenas.

Let's see. The enemy declares "kill all Americans where you find them ", then follows by killing thousands and targeting leadership as a failed bonus. They are indeed invading and killing with a long term mission of converting the world to Islam.
Our response, per Coulter, would be truly "proportional", to use a phrase in vogue with the unswarthy.
Coulter is the rarest of all birds. She is a terrific writer with a brilliant mind and a clear viewfinder, unblemished with pc crap.

Many people believe in God, but not all of them are Christians. Quite true. I was an offensive thing to say. Anyway, why would anyone want to force a rteligious persuasion on someone else.

Many people believe in God, but not all of them are Christians. Last I checked, Christians believe God is a "trinity" and that one member of that unified trinity is a Man named Jesus Christ. Christians, therefore, believe Jesus was a Man, is now a resurrected Man, and is God.
Also, last I checked, Muslims reject that any man, including Jesus, could ever be God. They would wholeheartedly and resoundingly reject the statement: "Allah is Jesus."
Ergo, despite all this "Muslims and Christian worship the same God" talk, that simply is not the case.
In fact, it takes someone totally ignorant of both faiths to even say such a thing. Muslims and Christians do NOT worship the same God.
My God's name is Jesus, the Man of Nazareth. That a man should be considered God is a scandal.

# 10: The Fundamentalist Muslim zealots are out to kill everyone on the planet who refuse to convert to their insane religion. Seems to me Ann Coulter is merely in favor of self defence.
Christians in Muslim enslaved countries are not protected under local endangered species laws as Muslims are here.

You know, that's the strategy that Islamists used, and use, to extend the grip of their twisted interpretation of the Koran.

Quit responding on a basis of emotions and read the full text of her comments. I am providing a link so you can read the column yourself and refrain from ignorance any longer than necessary ........... http://www.uclick.com/client/ven/ac/
