The reason people like her make these kind of comments is to get her face in the news. Her, and all of her right wing kind are on the way out and they know it. I believe that the Democratic take over of the Senate was as much about the majority of us getting tired of a Christian minority trying to tell us how to lead our lives as anything.

"God gave us the earth. We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees. God said, 'Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It's yours.'" "I think [women] should be armed but should not [be allowed to] vote." “Don't pray. Learn to use guns." "I have to say I'm all for public flogging.” "My libertarian friends are probably getting a little upset now but I think that's because they never appreciate the benefits of local fascism." I actually like Ann Coulter because she says what Bush most republicans wish they could say and not cause public outcry. You want to know what it really means to be a republican. Look to Ann Coulter. Like other republicans, her views are messed up, but at least she says them out loud. Actual Ann Coulter quotes:

The Greek scriptures were written in, duh, koine Greek. The English word 'offend' does not appear therein. The word "offend" may be used with the definition given above in the particular translation Lynn Gregory consulted, but there are countless translations of the Bible in just about every possible language including Klingon, many in English alone. In the various English translations, 'offend' may be used in any of its senses, or it may not appear at all. I suspect that Lynn Gregory was citing the King James ("If thine eye offend thee...") which is a monument of English literature, but which it is pointless to subject to close reading for doctrinal purposes. If you want to know what the biblical texts really say, you must learn the biblical languages (Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek) and consider the various issues pertaining to textual transmission. Nit-picking over this word or that in the King James is beyond ridiculous. The language of the King James is magnificent (thanks mostly to William Tyndale), but it is 400 years old and much of it is archaic/obsolete. Nor is the KJV all that accurate as a translation. For beauty the King James can't be beat; for influence on later Anglophone literature, it's number one; as an English study Bible, it has been surpassed by other translations.
