He's occasionally entertaining as long as you remember to not take him seriously. He's basically a comedian who mistakenly elevates himself to the role of "deep-thinker" from time to time.

Bill Maher is an atheist. And yes' date=' we have the freedom to worship whatever......[/quote']

 

So those men and women are fighting FOR people like Maher then.

Calling him a comedian is being mighty kind.

Absolutely they are. He's allowed to believe what he wants, but he promotes dissension and hate within our country. It's sad that these guys even get the forum to spew forth their inflammatory rhetoric.

He promotes hate because he doesn't agree with your beliefs? What has he said that falls in the catagory of promoting hate? I don't like the guy but you are reaching big time here.

Hate is a strong word that I shouldn't have used to describe Bill, but one that stirs up dissension, well, that he is.

Stirring up dissension is bad? Getting people to really consider their beliefs is bad? I think that's good and needed more. I can't stand Beck/Palin(obviously) but I do listen to what they say just to make sure I'm clear on their belief and how it matches up with mine. I don't disagree with everything they say and they do occasionally have access to facts I'm not aware of.

 

We should be thrilled to have someone challenge standard beliefs.

I find Maher to be a bit of a fool and wrong on most of what he says, so I'm not thrilled about anything he does really. I feel sorry for him to be that mixed up. That is just my opinion of him.
