Well, it's not that. It's just that most of us know not to take Ann seriously. Then again, most of us are not angry youth who swallow up everything she says (I served with plenty of people who, if she was on the air at the time, would be lapping up her spew and live by it). Unfortunately, the Republican party is bogarted by peeps like them.

I rather see her point about looking at Christians as evolved, though she says "perfected," Jews. Either direction, though, New Testament or Old, it's all God, and all One, be the visualization of God the triangular trinitarian one or a more-singular Perfect Circle. What were Christians in the beginning? The first generation of Christians were a variety of Jew, were they not? -- setting aside the conversions of sundry Romans and Greeks that soon came.
I understand that too, but, as you know, Ann is incapable of relating that point eloquently. If she did, she'd be out of a job...
