Publisher's summary

If a Martian landed in America and set out to determine the nation's official state religion, he would have to conclude it is liberalism, while Christianity and Judaism are prohibited by law. Many Americans are outraged by liberal hostility to traditional religion. But as Ann Coulter reveals in this, her most explosive audiobook yet, to focus solely on the left's attacks on our Judeo-Christian tradition is to miss a larger point: Liberalism is a religion - a godless one. And it is now entrenched as the state religion of this county.

Though liberalism rejects the idea of God and reviles people of faith, it bears all the attributes of a religion. In Godless, Coulter throws open the doors of the church of liberalism, showing us its sacraments (abortion), its holy writ (Roe v. Wade), its martyrs (from Soviet spy Alger Hiss to cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal), its clergy (public school teachers), its churches (government schools, where prayer is prohibited but condoms are free), its doctrine of infallibility (as manifest in the "absolute moral authority" of spokesmen from Cindy Sheehan to Max Cleland), and its cosmology (in which mankind is an inconsequential accident).

Then, of course, there's the liberal creation myth: Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. For liberals, evolution is the touchstone that separates the enlightened from the benighted. But Coulter neatly reverses the pretense that liberals are rationalists guided by the ideals of free inquiry and the scientific method. She exposes the essential truth about Darwinian evolution that liberals refuse to confront: It is bogus science.

Writing with a keen appreciation for genuine science, Coulter reveals that the so-called gaps in the theory of evolution are all there is - Darwinism is nothing but a gap. After 150 years of dedicated searching into the fossil record, evolution's proponents have failed utterly to substantiate its claims. And a long line of supposed evidence, from the infamous Piltdown Man to the "evolving" peppered moths of England, has been exposed as hoaxes. Still, liberals treat those who question evolution as religious heretics and prohibit students from hearing about real science when it contradicts Darwinism. And these are the people who say they want to keep faith out of the classroom?

Liberals' absolute devotion to Darwinism, Coulter shows, has nothing to do with evolution's scientific validity and everything to do with its refusal to admit the possibility of God as a guiding force. They will brook no challenges to the official religion.

Fearlessly confronting the high priests of the church of liberalism and ringing with Coulter's razor-sharp wit, Godless is the most important and riveting book yet from one of today's most lively and impassioned conservative voices.

Excellent!

Ann gets her point across in a very "stick in the liberal's eye" way. Some have compained that she is harsher than necessary, and I agree a little bit (But really enjoy it as well). She treats the cry baby libs in the way they are used to treating other, only instead of making up information to try to prove her point, she has to goods! This is a great book; entertaining as well as educational!

Another good dose of Ann

In this book, Ann contrasts the Christian belief system at she was raised under with the Liberal belief system. I found it not quite as engrossing as my other Ann Coulter books from Audible, but part of that may be the narrator. Don't get me wrong, Elizabeth White does a good job. However, she doesn't match the strident touch that Ann's own reading of the just slightly shorter "abridged" version. I've found Ann's words read by Ann herself best.

This contrasts strongly with Maureen Dowd's "Are Men Necessary?". I loved Ann reading her books so much that I tried Maureen. What a mistake! Maureen wasn't familiar with the text and stumbled over it terribly. It make me wonder who REALLY wrote it.

She proves her point

Apart from all the hype and political brouhaha, she has a point and she has backed it up with a tremendous amount of fact and detail that is hard to pass off as just right-wing propaganda.

This is a very informative book that takes a hard look at post-modern/liberal theory -- that on the surface is so easy to accept, but in actuality is like poison in the system!

enjoyed it

Lots of interesting facts. Very thought provoking and entertaining.

All out frankness

Ann Coulter has no gloves on and is all out brutally honest and frank in her non politically correct approach. The audible edition further sharpens the intellectual onslaught on liberalism. This is for people who have nerves of steel because if your offended by the truth or intellectual acumen then prepare yourself, Ann Coulter's Godless is merciless in pointing out the hypocrisy and illogical stances of liberalism.

Favorite Ann Coulter Book!

Would you listen to Godless again? Why?

Absolutely! I've listened to it a couple of times already. I love it! I learned so much from it! Ann Coulter has really good incites and she doesn't have any sympathy for liberals. It's great!

Somebodies ears are burning

Wow! I got this to keep me awake as I drove through the night. I chose a controversial book for that purpose. And it worked

I didn't think I would laugh so hard. She makes very good arguments for her positions with scalding little jabs that fit so well even liberals have to swallow a smile. Both Clintons had to put aloe vera on their ears.

This is ultra conservative in nature and a good read from that point of view. Political correctness is not one of her virtues - I found that refreshing.

Ann's best book yet

This is Ann's best book yet. Highly recommended. Coulter once again uses the left's own words and deeds to illustrate their agenda. The narration is great. The reader handles Ann's sharp wit very well.

Repent!

This was an excellent book both in its content and in the reading of the text. The narrator did an excellent job of capturing the sarcasm of Ann Coulter. All I've got to say to liberals is read it and repent!

Funny book

If you're a bleeding heart liberal this is probably not the book for you, but for the rest of us with a sense of humor it's a great read. I give it five stars!
