The “Truth” about Ann Coulter

Looking at the uproar caused by Ann Coulter’s book Godless: The Church of Liberalism, I couldn’t help but opine. It’s true that she appears to have sensationalized her writing to deliver the biggest impact; quite successfully I might add. I am not amazed at all at the reaction to her claims. The fact of being ungodly (as a liberal or conservative) is America’s little secret. As I’ve stated in other opinion pieces, the underlying distain for the present administration is that its leader, our President, openly admitted to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

The ungodly, American or foreigner cringes and reacts negatively to such declarations. Ann Coulter’s book hits too close to home, this is why we have the uproar. Most dissenters, or those who don’t like Ann Coulter or her book, were pushed over the edge when she revealed their true allegiance.

If one is not, on a daily basis, desiring to live for God by considering His purposes, principles and plans, he/she is ungodly. The mere fact of acknowledging there is a God or going to church on Sunday dose not make one godly. Applying God’s truths, as revealed in scripture (the Bible), is where being godly begins. Once again, this beginning is sparked by turning to God from idols by trusting Jesus Christ as one’s personal Lord and Savior; anything other than, or apart from this is ungodly.

Therefore, Ann Coulter stuck a nerve in those who want to live as they choose and not be called on it. Living like the devil and hiding in the shadows never works as God is omnipresent and ensures that all discretions eventually come to the light; no sin goes unpunished. The principle that there are consequences for sinful behavior is one we should pay attention to:

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7

The “truth” about Ann Coulter is that her writings are a little to close to The Truth for our ungodly comfort.
