Maher To Defender Of Islam: Equating Christianity And Islam "Liberal "********" (video)
realclearpolitics.com ^ | 4/20/2013

Posted on 04/21/2013 10:33:35 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

HBO host Bill Maher debates guest Brian Levy, the director of the Center for the Study of Hate & Extremism at California State University in San Bernardino, about the Boston Marathon Bombers' Muslim faith playing a role in their terrorism

"It's not like people who are Muslim who do wacky things have a monopoly on it," Levy claimed. "We have hypocrites across faiths, Jewish, Christian who say they're out for God and end up doing not so nice things."

Maher, true to form, called his guest out and said his premise was "liberal bullshit."

I thought about changing the title to read "BS" or "bullsh!t"...but I know we should use the exact title.

Please advise.

This video is pretty good. It appears that the Boston attack may be triggering a tectonic shift in American attitudes re: Islam.

Listen to the audience response carefully. It is interesting.

Bill Maher leaving the plantation? This is the second time in a month he called out the libs.

I see the loss of a tV show in Mahers future.

Gosh, for once I’m agreeing with Maher. It’s eerie.

To his credit, and despite how loathsome he is on other issues, Maher has always said things like this. He has never bought the argument that Christianity and other religions are as violent as Islam.

And another thing....

The Crusades were NOT just Christians attacking Muslims for no reasons, it was IN RESPONSE to things happening just like now. They were trying to take over the world, but back then the Christians has the courage to do something about it.

MAHER: [Christians are] not as dangerous. I mean, there's only one faith, for example, that kills you or wants to kill you if you draw a bad cartoon of the prophet. There’s only one faith that kills you or wants to kill you if you renounce the faith. An ex-Muslim is a very dangerous thing. Talk to Salman Rushdie after the show about Christian versus Islam. So, you know, I’m just saying, let's keep it real...

Holy crap! I'm agreeing with Maher!? What happened?

Maher ought to feel a little tingle of unease as he is called “Islamaphobe” and “hater” for simply describing what he (and the stones in the street) understand about Islam.

Christians are going to voluntary allow Christianity to be suppressed, in exchange for “punishing Islam.” Completely sad and pathetic.

Maher must be getting scared of the reality of the situation. sadly for some, even rapes, tortures and, massive attacks by jihadists on the streets of america, wouldn’t change their minds.

Some who identify as Christian do evil things IN SPITE of the teachings of the Christian faith.

On the other hand... some who identify as Muslim live normal, peaceful, law-abiding lives IN SPITE of the teachings of Islam

That's just one part of doing the right thing, the other part is, denouncing angrily what the jihad fanatics do in the name of their religion, and as far as I can tell, most Muslims remain silent on that aspect of behaving nicely. Because of that silence by the "majority" the dangerous element feel free to act in violent ways in the name of Muhammad and their religion.

Notice how the guy makes sure to point out that his kids' dentist is Muslim, so as to insulate himself from "Islamophobia"? Did he search specifically for a Muslim dentist? Considering that the man is Jewish, he really seems like a self-hating crocodile-feeder, hoping to be eaten last.

Self-hatred, fear and cowardice make a dispicable combination...and a more dangerous society.

Bill Maher is simply stating the obvious about Islam. Because Maher is a very vocal atheist, his calling out of the liberal lie that 'all religions are dangerous' is telling. Apparently even atheist lefties are beginning to realize that Islam is as much a threat to them as it is to anyone else.
