The Parable Of Ann Coulter And The Tax Collector

Whatever you think about Ann Coulter (if you're a conservative, you probably love her. If you're a liberal, you probably hate her) - she certainly speaks her mind.

Coulter was interviewed recently on TBN - yes, that TBN - doubtlessly for promotion of her new book called Godless. In this interview it was very clear that although Coulter says she's a Christian, she's not well-versed, if you get my drift. During one part of the interview, Coulter made it clear that she wasn't fond of liberals. In fact, she said, with all sincerity, that part of her time spent in prayer were for liberals as well as thanking God that she wasn’t one.

If Ann Coulter was well-versed, she would know that she actually prayed a prayer from the Bible (and no, it wasn't the Prayer Of Jabez):

"To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and prayed about[a] himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.'

Have mercy on us, Lord.
