What is not well known about her is that she attends a Reformed-Outlook Presb. Church, if IIRC. Such teaching in itself is greatly at odds with the, overwhelmingly, mainstream Christian free will theology - the ardent Pro-Zion John Hagee type of theology. Reformed theology is seen as terribly ‘anti-semitic’ from an end times point of view from the start, largely because it is Zionism neutral, at best, and even more so, due to the Covenant Replacement/Supersession offense.

The arguement is basically that Ann’s type of Christianity fuels the kind of anti-semitism that leads to hatred (the hatred that that is of the the ‘indifference’ variety) of Jews, which leads to the deaths of Jews.

That said, her comments are largely consistent with the end times outlook of reformed theology. If Christ is indeed the Jewish agent of Law fulfilment and more importantly, the new conventant, then Jew, Greek, Slave, Free, we all are to first Obey the law all the way to perfection.

The specific verse states: Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. MATT 5:48. And this is in the context of Jesus telling the listener it doesn’t do any good to overlook the fact the the common grace, for example, of rain falls among the most just as well as the others.

It would be anti-biblical, in other words, to say that ‘perfection’ is attainable’ in any other fashion. More specifically, it would be akin to denying the Trinity, especially the Father part of the God Head. (It is quite interesting that the total number of times that God is directly labeled as “Father” is just once: in the Old Testament, in Isiah).

In short, the issue, as Ann honestly put it, is about the content of the New Testament itself. If it is not true, then her anti-semitism is of the exact same Rank as the Islamists points of view - but if it is true, her anti-semitism is a slander from the outside only, and what she is actually doing is preaching the gospel.

So, the bottom line is quite simple: it’s not about Ann, or, whether or not she is educated. It is simply whether or not the New Testament is Black or White, true or false. And in this world, the greatest sin is denying the only statement this is allowed to be black and white: “Black and White thinking is evil”. The world loves the grey.

The “left” in this country is completely disdainful of religion. What Ann Coulter did was not RACIAL or ETHNIC, but she made a religious comment.

What the dems are doing is mischaracterizing her Religious comment as a racial slur.
