Barn (and Koran) Burning Ann Barnhardt is Back

I'm on part three. My, but she is good. I never get tired of reading her words and listening to her say them. She should conduct a seminar on effective epithet hurling that sticks. She'd be good at it. Her older videos on the evils of NICE are quite savory. I really love how she calls out the infiltrators in the church "Filthy, Marxist Scum"...which she is ending RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW! Sigh. Most satisfying, isn't it, Gerard.

Ann Barnhardt is the definition of gutsy.

She definitely has the Marists pegged. Too many Saturnalias over at Vassar to stay on the straight 'n narrow.

After listening to all three, I'm sitting quietly, considering how the glorious company of the saints loves Ann Barnhardt.

Rotating quote of the moment under your banner:

"The trouble with Communism is the Communists, just as the trouble with Christianity is the Christians." - H.L.Mencken

Mencken is off on this one. The trouble with Communism is that it is Communism, and the trouble with commies is that they are filthy Marxist scum....oh how I love saying that.

Barnhardt is a genius; she has a very fine mind for analogies and abstract thinking. She also has an unusually firm grasp of Christian theology.

A couple of times I was a little put off by her way of expressing herself and her accent, but her argument made total sense.

If I were a Jew, I might disagree with her on the point of Christ being the Messiah, but that would not undermine the totality of the truth of her argument. In addition, Barnhardt can be transcendent like no one else I have ever seen: Part 1 brought tears to my eyes and Part 3 made me cry.

If any Christian today exemplifies what it is to be a saint, it has to be Ann Barnhardt. As a Christian under the pervasive influence of secularism, I was horrified to see part of myself sitting in judgement on her, looking for anything that might be regarded as foolish according to the conventional 'wisdom' of contemporary prejudice.

Surely, elements are there, but it is impossible to think of anyone regarded as a saint by the church doing anything other than what Barnhardt is doing. Having seen these, I must repent, and re-double my efforts to act in imitation of Christ. If you want to see a Christian saint in action, look no further.

Hey, not a one of you mentioned that she's rather fetching. I even like watching her with the sound off.

I LIKE this woman! Christianity with balls. Kinda like the dudes who said to the Romans, 'Bring on the lions -- we don't fear death. Do you?" That attitude changed the world.

Thanks for bringing her to our attention

Dr. Bob, this used to be called Muscular Christianity. Before the West became embarrassed about Manly Virtue.

I like her too, and I'm an agnostic. I like how she addressed atheists in addition to Christians and Jews.

I actually watched the videos around 2:00 am EDT this morning, but couldn't think of a comment to leave.

Don Rodrigo: You are right. She is fetching, has great legs and a body to die for. All her assets combined with a brain and intelligence makes her one hell of a woman.

She needs to do something to her hair. It's way too Pentecostal for my tastes.

Posted by Jewel at May 16, 2011 8:44 PM

She's a Roman Catholic. Beside, Angelina Jolie has long hair, and it doesn't look Pentecostal, does it?

Take the entire top-of-the-line of the liberal elite, imprison them in an auditorium, manacled to the chairs and heads restrained, with their eyes taped open and their mouths taped shut.

Now play a continuous reel on a giant screen of Barnhardt, Coulter, Palin, Bachman and any other gorgeous rightosphere babes expounding in top form. How long before heads start to explode?

5... 4... 3... 2...

She's really something! Wouldn't you love to be in a big theater full of folks and listen to her dazzling riffs? There would surely be lots of Amens! and arm waving (at least from me). I love the adamant surety and passion she shares and the encouragement to do 'what's right'. Thanks for sharing her with a larger audience....I'm glad to know that she has a growing audience. And I suppose we're all hateful, now, too. Oh, well.....

I admire a strong woman like this.
