Bill Maher Rips Islam To Shreds

Yeah, don’t believe the statistics, just make up your own.

Do you have any idea how insanely racist you sound?

At least I'm glad I'm not the only one who hears it.

@Metal-Brain said
What is your source of information?

And why don't you want to talk about how Jews deny Jesus was the son of god? Why do Christians think they have more in common with Jews than Muslims? Denying the son of god should be heresy to Christians and if it isn't then they should be fine with Atheists too.

Wrong end of the stick.

Actually, it's the wrong stick entirely.

Plus Islam is a bloodthirsty upfcked religion that treats women like cattle, not gonna find that in common with Western Judeo-Christian culture.

Then why is this administration so in love with the idea of stripping rights from women?

Cattle would be a step up.

WTF are you referring to?
If you mean the abortion decision by SCOTUS, that didn't ban anything, it just gave the states back the right to decide.
Is there something else we don't know about?

There's a good reason for Islamophobia:

I usually try to avoid anything involving that smug jackass, but he does make some very good points.

One he might have missed is that as such an unfortunate blend of Irish and Jewish, he's not white, either. 😉

And who is he to tell anyone which causes they should support?

He might have included something about our vaunted "Judaeo-Christian morality" involving a history of other-hatred, genocide, and land-grabbing -- but that might have interfered with his attempt at misdirection.

Can we care about and do anything about all the bad things that people get up to around the planet? Probably not, or at least not without completely eliminating all of us just to be sure.

Because we have someone who is far beyond just a misogynist as POTUS?

Sorry, but only registered American voters are allowed to comment on that topic.

What a fool. Kim Iversen is an idiot as well.

Where is your evidence that Jesus was Jewish?
Does it say so in the bible? If so, where?

Jesus of Nazareth, born in Bethlehem.

You're kidding, right?

And if you had the bad taste to live in a red state, it was a ban.

Don't run from it.

So what? I was born in North America. Does that make me native American?
What else do you have?

1 in 5 Christian women in the US are beaten in the home.

Various groups of Jews in Israel spit on women in the bus who aren’t properly dressed.

There are a-holes in every culture.

But when the culture mandates your being an a-hole, and punishes you for not being an a-hole, that's a problem with the culture.

I would never discriminate against or judge any individual without knowing them or what they do/did, but you're plain nuts if you don't fear/loathe the rules consistently instituted in Islamic cultures across a broad array of countries.

On Islamophobia:

- Discriminating against or judging individuals without knowing them: wrong

- Detesting Muslim law and doctrine: practically mandated by rationality

Oh, don't get me wrong. There are plenty of extremist subcultures within Christianity and Judaism too; but they're fringe movements practiced by a tiny fraction. In the Muslim world, the insane rules and doctrine are mainstream.

It doesn’t state in the Koran that men are supposed to beat their wives.

It does in the bible though.

I know you are ignorant of the contents of the Quran and the Bible, so let me help you out.

Here is the Quran - Surah 4:34
So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them.

So first - Tell them what to do
Second - No sex. ie have sex with your other 4 wives
Third - A beating will solve the problem

Nothing remotely resembling that nonsense in the bible.
