Who wrote this?

I found this paragraph in the final chapter of "How to Talk to a Liberal..." I love this paragraph. I am reading "Godless: the Church of Liberalism" now.
"People don’t commit acts of great evil or great courage out of thin air. Character is developed out of a lifetime of choices. Almost every decision you make, however small, will be a step closer to God or a step Font sizecloser to the devil. When you are unkind to a clumsy shop clerk, you are taking a step closer to the devil. When you snap at your mother, you are taking a step closer to the devil. When you gossip enviously about a friend, you are taking a step closer to the devil. When you go along with the in crowd and don’t speak out against liars, against promiscuity, against abortion, you are taking a step closer to the devil. But it’s never too late to stop and start taking steps toward God. It’s a lot easier to make that journey with companions who know the way."
Coulter, Ann, How to Talk to a Liberal (if you must) (Crown Forum 2004) p. 343.

That's real nice that you are trying to find ways to not even talk to people you do not agree with. Yes, indeed, that is the way for us to all get along and find solutions to some of our very real problems. Gee, thanks.

I just love your black and white thinking. Either/or. My that's wonderful.

So, if you don't talk to people you disagree with is that a step closer to the devil. What about you evangelicals? I'm confused.

I don't think all liberals are godless. Obviously, many of them are as are some conservatives.
