LTTE (not mine) to the Orange County (CA) Register: When 'mammon' is god
When 'mammon' is god

According to Ann Coulter, liberals are "godless." I'm really wondering what kind of god she must worship herself, to hurl such cruel insults at innocent, suffering 9/11 widows and their families. Offhand, I'd guess it's mammon – hoping for lots of sales of her book no matter who gets hurt.

The God I know, the God revealed in the Bible, has much different family values. He doesn't call widows and orphans "witches." He cares for them tenderly. Remember James 1:27? "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction." But maybe Coulter's translation adds a clause, "But only if they are rich, Republican and anti-American as I am."
