CREDOS : Coulter on God — II

You write: “Liberalism is a comprehensive belief system denying the Christian belief in man’s immortal soul.” Yet our polls show that 58.7 per cent of Democrats believe in life after death. Doesn’t that disprove your statement?

No, I think it proves it — 58.7pc of all Democrats?

That’s pathetic. Also, you forgot to ask them the follow-up question: Is that because you hope to come back as a snail darter? Will most liberals go to hell or heaven?

I really can’t improve on Jesus’ words: “Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.”

You cite opposition to the death penalty as a key tenet of the Church of Liberalism. Yet Pope John Paul II stated that the death penalty should be rarely, if ever, applied. How do you square this with your assertion that “adoration of violent criminals” is the main factor behind opposition to the death penalty?

I agree with the pope. I believe it is an “absolute necessity” to execute cold-blooded murderers, rapists, and child molesters. And opposition to the death penalty is not a “key tenet” of Catholicism. That would be a difficult position to maintain inasmuch as God himself commanded the Israelites to go to certain cities and kill every living thing. If memory serves, the pope was also opposed to abortion. Liberals are not. How would you explain opposition to the death penalty for murderers, but not for children? — Beliefnet.com
