"If a martian landed in America and set out to determine the
nation's official state religion, he would have to conclude it is
liberalism, while Christianity and Judaism are prohibited by law.
Many Americans are outraged by liberal hostility to traditional
religion. But as Ann Coulter reveals in this, her most explosive
book yet, to focus solely on the Left's attacks on our
Judeo-Christian tradition is to miss a larger point: liberalism
"is" a religion--a godless one.
And it is now entrenched as the state religion of this county.
Though liberalism rejects the idea of God and reviles people of
faith, it bears all the attributes of a religion. In "Godless,"
Coulter throws open the doors of the Church of Liberalism, showing
us its sacraments (abortion), its holy writ ("Roe v. Wade"), its
martyrs (from Soviet spy Alger Hiss to cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal),
its clergy (public school teachers), its churches (government
schools, where prayer is prohibited but condoms are free), its
doctrine of infallibility (as manifest in the "absolute moral
authority" of spokesmen from Cindy Sheehan to Max Cleland), and its
cosmology (in which mankind is an inconsequential accident).
Then, of course, there's the liberal creation myth: Charles
Darwin's theory of evolution.
For liberals, evolution is the touchstone that separates the
enlightened from the benighted. But Coulter neatly reverses the
pretense that liberals are rationalists guided by the ideals of
free inquiry and the scientific method. She exposes the essential
truth about Darwinian evolution that liberals refuse to confront:
"it is bogus science."
Writing with a keen appreciation for genuine science, Coulter
reveals that the so-called gaps in the theory of evolution are all
there is--Darwinism is nothing but a gap. After 150 years of
dedicated searching into the fossil record, evolution's proponents
have failed utterly to substantiate its claims. And a long line of
supposed evidence, from the infamous Piltdown Man to the "evolving"
peppered moths of England, has been exposed as hoaxes. Still,
liberals treat those who question evolution as religious heretics
and prohibit students from hearing about real science when it
contradicts Darwinism. And these are the people who say they want
to keep faith out of the classroom?
Liberals' absolute devotion to Darwinism, Coulter shows, has
nothing to do with evolution's scientific validity and everything
to do with its refusal to admit the possibility of God as a guiding
force. They will brook no challenges to the official religion.
Fearlessly confronting the high priests of the Church of Liberalism
and ringing with Coulter's razor-sharp wit, "Godless" is the most
important and riveting book yet from one of today's most lively and
impassioned conservative voices.
"Liberals love to boast that they are not 'religious, ' which is
what one would expect to hear from the state-sanctioned religion.
Of course liberalism is a religion. It has its own cosmology, its
own miracles, its own beliefs in the supernatural, its own
churches, its own high priests, its own saints, its own total
worldview, and its own explanation of the existence of the
universe. In other words, liberalism contains all the attributes of
what is generally known as 'religion.'" --From Godless
