"Take a right-leaning comedian as funny as Maher – perhaps P.J. O’Rourke or Ann Coulter – and set them loose interviewing high-profile leftists in a humorous manner. It could accomplish the same feat as “Religulous”: challenge people to critically examine their dogmas and provide a few laughs doing it."

That's a great idea. Like Ben Stein's film on Darwinists.

Gads, would I like to drop Maher in the middle of Iran and watch them “take care” of him.

I realize the left is intellectually bankrupt, but surely there must be one leftist somewhere, more worthy of our attention than BM?

"..whenever people organize their lives around what could be described as groundlessness, bad things happen"

The converse is also true; when people organize their lives around grounded truth, good things happen. Like Christianity/Western Culture.

They can laugh, mock and denigrate Christianity all they want but I believe Christ is coming soon and those laughs, snickers and mocking will turn to wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Has anyone ever noticed how many anti-Christian stories or stories about the decline of Christianity come out during Holy Week every year?

What will happen to perverted comedians with Tourette’s when jihadists take over? No more stand-up in Paris and Brussels?

The title alone speaks volumes.

They'd swarm all over him like maggots to fresh cow dung.

I seem to recall there used to be a guy on the Catholic cable network (EWTN)who would walk around in shopping malls with a microphone asking people basic questions about Christianity. It was amusing.

The media campaign against Christianity is orchestrated. The ridicule coming, whether from MSNBC, The NY Times, or Newsweek, reflects a social engineering strategy. It has picked up since embryonic stem cells research and same-sex marriage became hot-button issues. They want this secular socialist society, cradle to grave, without Christian moral or spiritual influence of any kind in the public realm.

Is Maher Jewish?

I don’t see the relevance, but I believe he’s nominally a Catholic, nominally since he’s not a fan of religion.

It was a curio. Nothing more. Thanks.

White Horse Inn has their producer go to Christian venues (pastor's conventions, the Den of Thieves Retail Show, stuff like that) and do the same thing. The results are usually appalling.

Notice that Christianity is the only religion under attack?

That’s because it’s the only threat to the father of lies, because it’s the only truth.

Yes! Let them loose among the Hollywood set as well as typical Upper West Siders and they will hear some absolutely shocking stuff!

Ann would never be granted an interview but O'Rourke might slip under the radar.

Amen. Except in Christianity’s case I would capitalize Truth.

I would love to see him and the whole entertainment/media industry (except for a lonely few) plunged into full-blown islam! It would make the best reality show ever.
