Bill Maher On Charlie Hebdo: All Religions Are 'Stupid and Dangerous' [Video]
Inquisitr ^ | 1/8/2015 | Staff

Bill Maher stunned his liberal-friendly audience on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday night with his most recent comments on the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack, demonizing religious extremists and religion in general, true to form for the outspoken and controversial comedian and host of Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO.

Maher was on Jimmy Kimmel Live the night of the attacks in Paris that killed 12, and he had plenty to say about liberalism, freedom of speech, and religion, particularly the Muslim religion, which he has come out against in the past, drawing the ire of his fellow liberals and accusations of intolerance. ...

I would disagree with Maher by saying that, with the exception of late 20th century abortion clinic bombings, Christians today don't do what some Muslims are doing, as some engaging in acts like this ended with the Spanish Inquisition.

And no acts like this have done or have been carried out by Jewish people since they entered into the Promised Land.

The point is, violence from Christians and Jews/Christianity o and Judaism (or in their name of these faiths) is all in the past.

Really?

We’re Eastern Orthodox.... I don’t know a single Orthodox priest who’d last 5 seconds after saying or doing what the Imams routinely do.

No Bill, NOT stupid or dangerous !

The most dangerous religion is Atheism. The atheists of Communism and Nazism have slaughtered hundreds of millions in the last Century alone!

Maher is having a hard time understanding why his fellow libs aren’t outraged by Islam. It’s quite simple. Islam is mostly practiced by people who are brown. Criticizing Islam is, therefore, racist. If Islam were a bunch of white Euros, the Left would be trying to nuke entire countries.

The abortion clinic bombings were universally condemned by Christians 30 years ago.

I sometimes wonder what would be happen if all Christians stopped monetary charity toward unbelievers for 1 week?

Oops.

I meant to say “Christians and Jews and/or Christianity and Judaism"

Liberals are only opposed to Christianity. They’re fine with all the other, non-Christian ones, because they’re to greater or lesser degrees, false.

I would disagree. Atheists in Western Europe tend to be a totally different breed than their American counterparts.

RE: All Religions Are ‘Stupid and Dangerous’

Yeah right. And Atheist governments are not dangerous...

Does this man know his history?

Atheistic Communist regimes killed 60 million in the 20th century through genocide, according to Le Monde, more than 100 million people according to The Black Book of Communism (Panné, J.L., Paczkowski A. et al, 1999) and according to Cleon Skousen in his best-selling book The Naked Communist.

It is estimated that in the past 100 years, governments under the banner of atheistic communism have caused the death of somewhere between 40,472,000 to 259,432,000 human lives.

Dr. R. J. Rummel, professor emeritus of political science at the University of Hawaii, is the scholar who first coined the term democide (death by government). Dr. R. J. Rummel’s mid estimate regarding the loss of life due to communism is that communism caused the death of approximately 110,286,000 people between 1917 and 1987.

Your statement would presuppose that atheists believe that Christianity is true.

...especially Secular Humanism, which is Bill Maher’s chosen faith.

Atheists almost universally back abortion which is the MURDER of millions. It dwarfs the holocaust

The term used in your last paragraph is very important. Christianity is not a religion, it is a faith. These are two very different things. Most people think they are interchangeable just as they think democracy and republic are the same.

Most people are ignorant.
