Monique Davis against Rob Sherman this week may have tied Coulter's, though, DW, or at least come close. What was it Davis said, again? Something like, "it is dangerous to our children to know you even exist," or words to that effect. How some Christian extremists come up with this stuff is beyond me. DW quoted:

Thanks. Jonathan ********************* Hi JT, you're welcome. :-) As one of the "evil unbelievers" myself, I have been threatened with either hell or the lake of fire in the "afterlife" more times than I can count. It actually gets rather tedious after a while, so I like to create zinger comebacks just for fun. One comeback response I haven't used in a while is that when that happens, I'll be hanging out at Satan's Bar and Grill, on the corner of Fire and Brimstone, and having a lot more fun than they (fundamentalists) will. The last time I used that line, it was quite effective...for a little while, anyway. Susan:

Very important point, indeed. Thanks.

The bigotry against "unbelievers" isn't restricted to the Islamic faith.
