Morning,

No I did not. What did I miss.

Personal Story Segment
Bill Maher and the CBS Evening News
Guest: Bill Maher

The CBS Evening News includes a segment called "freeSpeech," in which people are invited to voice their opinions. TV host Bill Maher claims he was approached, but CBS reneged when he wanted to comment on religion. "I would have said that organized religion is dangerous and a mass psychosis," Maher explained. "Why is Iraq falling apart? Because there are two religious sects at each other's throats. And here, most people who call themselves Christians don't act Christ-like. Evangelicals are usually behind everything that represents intolerance and bigotry." The Factor leaped to the defense of Christians. "So are you saying Mother Teresa was a psychotic? Catholic Charities are in every country in the world healing the sick and working with the poor. They do it because Christianity says love your brother, help the poor. You're coming across as an anti-Christian bigot, and I don't think you are a bigot."
