It’s Good Friday. Would Jesus agree with this?

That avatar of Christian charity, Ann Coulter:
“Where are the Christians? And where are the Republicans? I’m glad this Mike Pence isn’t running for president. They are falling like toy soldiers. The one thing every Christian should have is courage. The most important thing in your life, eternity, is already taken care of. Go out and fight. You’re afraid of being sneered at by the New York Times? That’s the one thing every Christian should have and most of them don’t.”
I don’t remember the “get out there and fight, dammit” Biblical homilies but then I’m no expert. It doesn’t sound like Jesus though. I thought he was big on forgiveness and turning the other cheek. Assuming that you’re all set for eternity so it’s time to start cracking some heads just doesn’t strike me as particularly Christian. But hey, maybe it’s one of those lost books in the Bible — the Book of Luca … Luca Brazzi.
