CREDOS : Coulter on God — I

Ann Coulter, a conservative pundit, makes her living saying outrageous things about what she deems the outrages of the left. She is the author of five best-selling liberal-bashing books, including her latest, “Godless: The Church of Liberalism,” in which she argues that liberalism

is a form of atheistic religion. Beliefnet editor Charlotte Allen recently interviewed Coulter.

You call your book “Godless.” Are all liberals atheists? No, but it raises odds.

What portion of liberals would you say are religious in the more conventional sense of the word: Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, even Wiccans? Hmmm, so you consider Wiccans “religious in the conventional sense”? That would definitely get liberals’ numbers up! I’d have no way of knowing, but make no mistake: Liberals are everywhere, in every religion, denomination and spiritual practice.

A surprising number of Democrats say they are religious. Some 61 per cent say they pray daily and 72 per cent attend worship services once a month or more.

How would you explain that? Just curious: What percentage of them knows which Testament the Book of Job is in?

When you say that most liberals don’t believe in God, what is your evidence? According to a poll last year, 92 per cent of Americans believe in God. Doesn’t that suggest that most liberals believe in God? I don’t say, “most liberals don’t believe in God”; I say liberalism is a godless religion. — Beliefnet.com
