Godless

I never completely agree with any commentator on today's society, but today's explanation by the author herself of the premise of her book, "Godless" by Ann Coulter made me think, and isn't that the best thing that any commentator can do? Unfortunately, if we do think and then attempt to express those thoughts we may be chastised for being unfeeling or insensitive. Somehow, being a thinking person is supposed to preclude the practice of Christianity. While at the same time we are told that we have free speech in America and freedom of religion, we are persecuted for expressing even the simplest of our Christian tenets. For example, if I say that I believe homosexual behavior is sinful, I am branded as intolerant. Worse, in this Commonwealth of Massachusetts, I am expected to accept homosexual marriage! I'm not going to preach in this forum. I don't aspire to that profession in any capacity. But just for giggles, read Ann Coulter's column at http://www.anncoulter.com/welcome.html and let me know what you think.

    How right you are sojourner! That old saying about catching more flies with honey than with vinegar comes to mind (although in retrospect, isn't it ants that are attracted to sweetness and flies go for all things rotten? but I digress). The point is well taken. The danger of having knowledge is not having the wisdom to properly disseminate it and running the real risk of not being heard at all. We should all remember that just because we speak the truth does not mean it will be received unless it is spoken in a way that will be heard. Thanks for your thoughts!
