It seems to me that Coulter only restated the traditional Christian position: everyone comes to God only through Christ. So, as the little brothers of the Jews (wild vines grafted onto the Jewish olive tree roots), we naturally hope for the eventual conversion of the Jews. No one is proposing forced conversion, but it is silly to pretend that we are indifferent to the fate of the Jews or anyone. Colter was obviously kidding and even offered to take Deutch to church. She also said that Deutch ought to be an observant Jew, when he said he was not. Her point, which she said, was that evangelical churches are tolerant, welcoming places, and would welcome him. Why is that offensive? I smell a whiff of political correctness here — the idea that we have the have respect even for religions with which we disagree. For example, that Columbus should not have Christianized Caribbean Indian tribes because they had a right to be pagans — it was part of their culture, after all.
