Bill Maher: I Wish Liberals Would Have Same Intolerance For Muslims That They Do For Christians
RealClearPolitics ^ | January 30, 2016 | unattributed

Posted on 01/31/2016 11:11:50 AM PST by SunkenCiv

On the Friday broadcast of his HBO show Real Time, Bill Maher told liberals see the world the way they want it rather than the way it is when it comes to the threat of Islam and Islamic terror. Maher, a religious critic, told his fellow liberals he wishes they would have the same "intolerance" for Muslim-related terror around the world that they do for Christians and Christian fundamentalists at home.

Maher brought up the decision by the Italians to cover up nude statues during a state visit by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.

"This is the horribleness of what's going on in Rome. Oh my God, naked titties and tiny penises!" Maher joked.

"I think people are mixing up two things: tolerance and capitulation," the HBO host observed. "It's one thing to be tolerant of another culture, but this is out culture, you know? Christianity had a problem with titties, in like 1300. We got over it. So we shouldn't change our culture to a more backward culture, should we."

Let’s see the ratio of Christian-bashing Maher had done over Muslim-bashing over the years.

Not just him, but many others who happen to be liberal Jews or Christians. Some are now gradually waking up, but I’m sorry to say, but it may be too late.

Like I have stated in the past, the United States will not be a safe haven for neither Jew nor Christians. Unless the population wakes up before our nation turns into Europe.

AS much as he is distasteful, he does nail the Islamic issue right between the eyes. He knows it is a real problem, while the Christian “problem” is bogus and trumped up by liberals.

You are absolutely right. But will America wake up in time?
I sure hope so for this current generation and the next ones.

In the mean time, those “cool” European vacation spots libs like Maher are used to getting away to....well they’re kinda disappearing. Their places in the world to party are shrinking. Maybe this will cause them to once again kinda try to like American and it’s people.

No. He is like Christopher Hitchens, who hated all religions, but at least didn't spare Islam from their wrath.

He’s a hateful liberal puke but... He’s an honest hateful liberal puke who hates PC culture. I’m surprised they let him on the air.

I sense you are causing a disturbance in the force.

And now your neighbors all know!

Same here. Over the last year or so he has called out the absurdity of rat/liberalness in this country. But yes, still a scumbag.

They never will for one reason-Muslims hurt people. If Christians were as evil as liberals paint them to be, liberals would be afraid of Christians too.

“I sense a fear coming over Maher. Too late for him to be enlightened, he played his part in creating the nightmare.”

Yes, because he’s “Jewish,” and despite the fact that he’s not relgious, he knows he’s on the top of the Muzzies list for a “head removal!”

I hate to break it to Maher but Christians (Catholics, actually) are the ones who created those nude works of art that he claims we had a problem with in 1300. Why doesn’t he bother reading an art history book?

Maher was raised Catholic, and it does seem that most of his venom towards Christians is more towards Protestants and Evangelicals.
