He Says Christians are All Insane!

 
Bill Maher, host of HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher, says that all Christians are crazy and are unenlightened because of their faith. Maher made the comments on MSNBC’s Scarborough Country. (He looks real bright and enlightened in the picture below, wouldn’t you say?)

Maher said: “We are a nation that is unenlightened because of religion…I think that religion stops people from thinking. I think it justifies crazies. I think that flying planes in a building was a faith-based initiative. I think religion is a neurological disorder. If you look at it logically, it’s something that was drilled into your head when you were a small child.”

“When you look at belief in such things–as do you go to heaven, is there a devil–we have more in common with (Muslin countries) Turkey and Iran and Syria than we do with European nations and Canada and nations that, yes, I would consider more enlightened that us.”

Maher said he wasn’t speaking only of evangelicals, but included all religious people. He said he agreed with Jesse Ventura “who had that quote about religion is a crutch for weak-minded people who need strength in numbers.”

Because of their neurological disorder, he said Christians “do not believe in science and rationality.” He went on to say the future does not belong to religion. One recalls the famous quote from the Beatles in the 60’s that they “were more popular than Jesus.”

According to Maher, the Bible is a book of fairy tales, calling the account of Jonah a fairy tale the same as Jack in the Beanstalk.

Had Maher said such things about homosexuals, he would have been immediately fired. But because he was speaking of Christians, his bigotry was acceptable to HBO, owned by Time Warner Inc. It is still OK to be a bigot when it comes to Christians. Catholics are still fair game for intolerant idiots though they would never have the guts — or the freedoem – to say such things about any other group.

It’s amazing that he doesn’t realize that the 20th century had non-religious leaders by the score rise up to suppress Christians and to lead “enlightened societies“, yet the atheistic rationalism of the 20th century ushered in more bloodshed, murder and genocide than all previous “religious“ centuries combined.

I could go on and on, but if you want to Maher that HE is the one that is crazy — and a fool — you can simply click here.
