Bachmann: Jesus is coming soon, so we should convert all of the Jews

[DC Al Fine]

She says that she wants to share the Bible and bring people in... It's not like she's talking about forced conversions.  I know Bachmann has many other problems, but wanting to share your beliefs with other people, especially when they're about something like salvation, is not a bad thing.  The bigger deal is the tendency of evangelicals to say that we're living in end times. 

Bleeping dispensationalism. But yes, there's not really anything that controversial here.

[DC Al Fine]

I am Reformed and our end times theology is quite different, but this sort of thing is extremely common among "broad" Evangelicals. I've encountered it plenty of times up here in Canada, so I assume it's fairly common in the USA. Perhaps this is another example of how we are getting more atomized, but I'm a bit surprised that some folks are surprised that some people think this.
