+Mona Bale Of course the most of atheists (not just the "some" that you know) would agree with Bill Maher! ROFL ...but, coherently, they would agree with him on each and every religion, since Bill uses the same set of reasonings for all of them. I was just remarking that a person agreeing with him only when he talks about other religions is quite hypocitical and shows that he doesn't understand the true reasoning behind Bill's statements about religion. What's your point?

There is no "moderate" or "radical" classification of Islam. There is only Islam..as taught in Koran & Hadith. The variations in behavior depend on how closely one chooses to follow instructions.

3434arc1 You realize the same could be said for Chritians about the Bible. The difference between what Maher describes and most modern Christians is simply Christans pretending all that same awful crap is in their holy book too. In the Old Testament God commands genocide (including killing of women and children), as well as horrible inequality for women and death punishments for all sorts of ridiculous things. Christians nowaways just typically choose not to follow them closely as you sya.

Matthew Langley I'm a presbyterian and you hit the nail on the head! All the examples Maher mentioned, with which apparently Dr. Bowrn agrees, can be found in the law of Moses (and much more!). The only difference is that Dr.Brown and his dispensational theologians have constructed a system where they can just dismiss the civil punishments as "non moral and non binding" (oh and the Bible teaches male supremacy, not gender equality and that's in both testaments). They've just conveniently made whichever laws they don't like to be "for Israel only" or "ceremonial"; but don't be surprised because they do that for the new testament as well, 1st Corinthians 14 and 1 Timothy 2 teach that women are to remain silent in the churches, 1Corinthians 11 teaches that women are to cover their heads in public worship..well all that's out the window cause they don't like it. Funny how their religion resembles more post french revolution secular humanism than anything the bible teaches...compare that to Scottish reformers like John Knox or Samuel Rutherford or the second reformation puritans...oh but the dispensationalists like Dr. Brown are the "real christians".

Joseph Gramcko There is a fundamental difference though. There are Christians in the middle east just as poor and backwards as the Muslims, but they are not chopping off heads or stoning people to death. This is the difference between following Christs love and a false religion. You point out gender differences as if they were bad? Men and woman have their rolls to play in the home, this is just basic genetics, how we were wired. That is not to say there are not strong woman, or effeminate men. But by in large men are the hunters, even minded, and can put emotions aside to make even headed choices. Woman are naturally empathetic and loving, best at child raising and taking care of the home. How many books have been written about the differences between a man and woman, dear abby talks about "how to keep you man", men are from mars and woman are from Venus. In short, men and woman are indeed not equal, and thank god for that!

chad b Where wad Christ's love when Christians used their God to justify slavery across the nation and Christian world. What about his love when Hitler justified fighting the jews in the name of christ. Also men and women being different is not the same thing as being equal. Many Christian groups still oppress and demean their women, I grew up in one. There are countless scriptures used to justify both it and violence.

Matthew Langley There is a big difference between the old and new testament. Jesus came with a new contract with man, hell, there wasn't any Christians until 30 years after Jesus death on the day of Pentecost when his followers received the holy spirit. The old testament is fire and wrath, the new testament is love and light. "Jesus did not come to destroy the laws of Moses, but to fulfil them." In other words, you need faith my friend to completely understand the message of the lord. Most of us never completely understand, but the holy spirit guides us. I will pray for you.

Dear Hassan Mubasher , who are you trying to decieve , youreself or youreself . 1 Muhmmad said allah hates those who dont accept islam (quran30:4 22 : 380. Jesus said God loves everyone .John 3:16. 2 Muhammad said "i have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but allah , and that muhammad is the messenger of allah (muslim 1:33) . Jesus said "he who lives by the sword will die by the sword "(Matthew 26:52). 3 Muhammad stoned women for adultery ,(sahih muslim 4206) . Jesus said " let he who is without sin cast the first stone ."(8:7). 4 Muhammad permitted stealing from unbelievers (bukhan 44:668, ibn ishaq 764.)Jesus said "thou shall not steal "(Matthew 19:18.) 5 Muhammad permitted lying (sahih muslim 6303)(bukhari49:857). Jesus said "thou shalt not bear false witness"( matthew19:18). 6 Muhammad owned and traded slaves (sahih muslim 3901). Jesus neither owned nor traded slaves . 7 Muhammad murdered those who insulted him (bukhari56:369, 4:241) . Jesus preached forgiveness . 8 Muhammad said "if then anyone trangress the prohibition against you , trangress ye likewise against him "( quran 2:194 ).Jesus said "if anyone strikes you on the right cheek , turn to him the other also "(matthew 5:39) . 9 Muhammad said "jihad in the way of allah elevates one position in paradise by a hundred fold"(muslim4645). Jesus said "blessed are the peacemakers , for they will be called sons of god " ( matthew 5:9 ). 10 Muhammed married 13 wives and kept sex slaves (bukhari 5:268, quran33:50) . Jesus was celibate . 11 Muhammad had sex with a 9 year old girl (sahih muslim 3309 , bukhari 58:236) . Jesus did not have sex with childern . 12 Muhammad ordered the murder of women (ibn ishaq 819 , 995) . Jesus never harmed a women . 13 Muhammad said "o you who believe ! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness "(quran 3:110) Jesus said "blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth " ( matthew 5:5 ) . 14 Muhammad ordered 65 military campaigns and raids in his 10 years (ibn ishaq) . Jesus never ordered any military campaigns , nor offered any apporval of violence . 15 Muhammad killed captives in battle (ibn ishaq 451) . Jesus never took captives , nor killed anyone . 16 Muhammad encourage his men to rape and enslave women (abu dawud 2150 , quran 4:24) . Jesus never raped nor enslaved women . 17 Muhammad was never tortured , but tortured others (muslim 4131 , ibn ishaq 436, 595, 734, 764) . Jesus was tortured , but never tortured anyone . 18 Muhammad said "and fight them until there is no more persecution and the religion is only for allah"(quran 8:39) . Jesus said "love youre enemies and pray for those who persecute you " (matthew 5:44) . 19 Muhammad ordered a slave to build the very puplit from which he preach islam (bukhuri 47:743) . Jesus washed his disciples feet ( john : 5 ) . 20 Muhammad demanded the protection of armed bodyguards , even in a house of worship (quran 4:102) . Jesus chastised anyone attempting to defend him wth force ( john 18 : 10-12 ) . 21 Muhammad adocated crucifying others (quran 5:33) (muslim 16:4131) . Jesus was crucified himself . 22 Muhammad had others give their lives for him (sahih muslim 4413) . Jesus gave his life for you . In short muhammad was a violent evil man , who raped women , murdered the innocent , and killed those who refused to convert to his satanic cult , who had sex with childern . Nearly all the actions of muhammad were satanic in nature , as if satan was there guiding him to violate gods laws in ever possible way . Therefore one has to ask , was he a prophet of God or satan . Since mohammad violated God laws of 1 thy shalt not kill , 2 thy shalt not commit adultery , 3 thy shalt not steal , i would have to say that he was a diciple of satan . Becase his actions were evil immoral and corrupt , and where dose evil come from . Evil comes from those who reject God and Gods 10 commandant . Since mohammad violated Gods commandents , he therefore cannot come from God , but rather can only come from satan , because satan wants mankind to violate and rebel against Gods and his laws , so that we will be comdem like him . Therefore he was not a prophet of God but rather a diciple of satan . Peace be with you .

MICHAELBANEBLADE Lol,Thou art Quoting out of Context,better would have been to Study these within context, Jesus is a Prophet of Islam,hence you won't find Muslim's Ridiculing like you Trinitarians do. Besides,Islam is faith of Converts who have preached and propagated it.they too were misquoting like you people do. Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) married young Girl....The fact is you should see as per the norms and Socio-Cultural ethos at that time of that land and Europe and far east. Lastly,Don't Compare one Prophet with other. Jesus is a one of the prophet of Islam as Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) is.We never compare Ibrahim or Moses or Uzair or Jacob etc.As History can teach you Principle but not Fact....So you have no Right,above all Gosphel is written as book of faith which makes it beyond factual evidences. For you Trinitarians Jesus is God or Son of God. Try to rationalize that.

However I do think Christianity is a ncie religion if you read the NEW TESTAMENT its all about loving each other respecting merci and etc.. and u should never judge people even if they are gays or they sinned or what ever..however in Islam its totally opposite all the teachings even bill said it in how to treat infidels and ETC.. are really written in Koran And I myself read it

Hassan Mubasher The problem with Islam is they wanna kill everything and everyone who oppose it. Think about it , the main way in having a modern successful society is by promoting free thinking and free way of living. HomoSexual it is their choice to be gays and it's non of anyone business if you wanna believe that the Koran is right you cannot force it on others. And if you believe in god isn't it god who's suppose to do the punishing not us humans ? punishing others? besides do you think any of us haven't sinned ? don't u deserve to be punished to the same way homosexuals are being punished? I'm not religious myself but i would like to give u an example of the way Jesus reacted when some men caught a lady committing an adultery. 4they said to Him, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in adultery, in the very act. 5"Now in the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women; what then do You say?"… But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote on the ground. 7But when they persisted in asking Him, He straightened up, and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."… What Im trying to say is the problem isn't within those homosexuals its within the way we fix this problem. Do u think by killing them there's no more homosexuals gonna come? and do you think if someone is homosexual but didn't show it and kept it inside him and stil lgot married to a woman and had kids isn't that sinning to ? cuz he's not convinced that he's straight? so he technically done it because he was afraid to die not because he was convinced.

+RememberToday4ever Jesus was mocking the Jewish Pharisees by indicating they are hypocritical sinners as well, so none of them qualified to cast the first stone. They all backed away and Jesus let the woman go. Mohammed however instructs all Muslims, even with sin, to rape and stone woman as a form of punishment. That is why Islam is not the religion of peace.

Islam and Muslims operate on eye for an eye, old Testament and corrupted man made teaching and religion. Christians operate in a New Covenant put forth by Jesus Christ in The New Testament. Here you will find mercy. In Islam, there is no mercy. Those that show no mercy, will get no mercy, from Almighty God, and hell fire rests on them, from The Hand of Almighty God.

But whereas the Bible ends with the teachings of a young Jewish Rabbi who says to 'love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you' and 'all who take the sword will perish by the sword', the qur'an 600 years later says 'kill the infidels wherever you find them, cutting off their hands, heads' etc. One set of values works for the benefit of everyone, the other, clearly doesn't.

This is where People are not seeing the way things are. There is no Radical Islam, there is just Islam. Sure the vast majority of Muslims don't go out and behead People, but they support an ideology that calls for death to anyone who will not submit to Islam. Islam means submission. As you heard, Bill Maher talked about Muslim statistics, that show that most Muslims do agree with the Fundamentalist Muslims. Now the Moderate Muslims actually believe a Quran, which they can reinterpret, so they can live with it. However the most egregious passages in the Quran, cannot be reinterpreted. The bottom line is this, they either give up on Islam, and put up with the ramifications of that decision, or they sort of suffer in silence, go through the motions, being afraid to speak up

Ok, your training wheel analogy is completely backwards. First of all, entrusting your destiny and soul to some benevolent being that you can't even prove exists is riding with training wheels, because you don't want to actually consider exploring the truth of human existence. You completely disregard anyone who disagrees with you and you ignore any opinion that challenges your beliefs, which at the end of the day, are only opinions, just as my beliefs are. However, I've actually done a ton of research on the theory of divine providence and creative design and I'm sorry, but I can't take those ideas seriously when there is no evidence to back them up. On the other hand, there's a lot of evidence to support the Big Bang theory, that the earth is 4.6 billion years old, that evolution is what brought about humans. THAT version of human history is much easier to believe from a rational point of view, whereas nothing about the bible can be backed up, nor the torah, nor the Koran. Everything in them has to be taken on faith, which means ignoring logic and believing in something despite how little sense it makes. That's not reasonable and certainly isn't something you should be proud of. It's detrimental and frankly, it's logically equivalent to believing in Santa Clause or the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Don't call yourself reasonable for having faith, because faith is believing in something without reason to, and that, my friend, is riding with training wheels.

Joe O'Donnell ...You forgot to mention that in the Bible it says, "Thou shalt not kill" ...It's not the same thing at all. Nowhere in the Bible are we told to kill others for God. In parts of the Bible, God commanded things like you mentioned but nowhere is it a command to keep on killing OR killing those who don't believe in God. I am not saying that atrocities did not happen by so-called Christians. The Qur'an is filled with ongoing commands to kill, slaughter, terrorize. Don't come out with this bleeding heart stuff when it comes to Muslims ...they will use it against you. And it doesn't matter how much you hug the extremist Muslim, he will stab you in the back while you are hugging him ...he's doing it for Allah. And almost always he is the judge and jury. It doesn't matter what we did 200 years ago. What matters is that we are not doing it now.

qbulb No I understand what you mean, and I am a Christian, I believe in the teachings of Jesus and I speak to God at all times. I am just saying that I personally feel that it is not strictly a religion thing. Most of these extremists are from countries where there is Pre-Islamic struggles and conflicts dating back millennia. There is violence and love in each religion and all the books have versus of war, violence, and love. When people say a whole religion is evil It annoys me, because that would be like saying all of Christianity is evil, because KKK members terrorize and beat down or murder Jews and non-white Christian's. I know my opinion isn't going to change anyone and I didn't really expect it to, but I thought I might as well throw my 2 cents out there. However, in the Qur'an the whole second chapter al-baqarah (the cow) talks about the Israelites and how they are misguided as well as the Christians are (but every religion says that about the others I may add) but it also says in that chapter that you must respect the Jews and Christians because they are people of the book, and the Qur'an acknowledges the fact that Jesus was given the Gospel by Allah, and that the Moses was given the commandments and so on and so forth. Allah also says in the Qur'an that all religions have been given the truth and that there is good in all religions, but that Muslims just embrace Allah's full truth. Every religion believes they have the full truth from God though so I do not get offended by that. I feel like people overlook the peaceful parts of Islam because of all the conflict and controversy of today, and the extremist who much like those so-called-Christians use Islam as a recruiting technique to get the poor and down trodden on there side for their own selfish or psychotic causes. As for Muhammad's Hadith and his biography He was a man who simply was preaching the message that he said he got from Archangel Gabriel and the polytheist Arab tribes went on a hunt to murder him for spreading what they thought were lies and causing trouble in their society. Muhammad fled to Medina and when they came for him he defended his beliefs and life with by sword with his small army of followers. After his victory they say he went to the kabaa in Mecca and destroy all the god's and goddess shrines and scratched all the false gods out of the stone but left one god on there. Allah, who is Arab mythology was "the king of all god's" essentially. How Zeus was to the greeks. They kept the name Allah and gave it to the one and only God. Now because Saudi Arabia has always been a violent and war filled place I could possibly believe that Muhammad after being attacked by non-believers that he decided they could not be trusted and out of anger and survival reasons said we have to kill all those who oppose us to survive physically and religiously and that's why he waged these wars against the other tribes and conquered them, but that is pure humanistic survival. Now maybe that never happened, maybe over the years things were lost in translation and I feel that goes for all religions through the constant translating and adaptation from one culture's views to another and so on and so forth, but I don't hold it against the religion. I hold the people accountable.

Joe O'Donnell a whole religion is not evil. It has good and bad parts. However we have to learn how to interpret things. THe old testament then the new testament. Which is newer? Now is the newer improved or not? Is the newer more peaceful? Well I tell you that the newer is where Jesus appears and revolutionizes the whole Juedeo-Christian world. Now with islam there is a period of meccan verses(when islam was a minority) and medinian verses(when islam is become majority). Now does islam become more peaceful or does it become more dangerous? Now KKK and Nation of Islam. Two groups that interpret their religion through race. Now Christianity and Islam is all inclusive. There are quotes supporting this and it allows for it to spread wherever. Now no one associates Nation of Islam with Islam, due to them believing in a prophet who is not mentioned in the quran and a setup not in coincide with it. There was no such thing as an Elijah Muhammad, the same goes for the KKK, Christianity was not a white-inclusive group. These groups don't belong in discussion. I would say catholic crimes is more appropriate in inquisition and ISIS today as well as Ottoman Empire since its converted all the classic churches of asia minor into mosques. Read Jesus and about violence. Read the quran. Even in self defense, even in liberation of state, and even a political system. Jesus never came to do that. He didn't try to take over Rome or Jerusalem. He didn't come in a sword despite "his house" being occupied. You look at Prophet Muhammad he went to Medina gather troops and came back to Mecca to reclaim his kabaa and holy land, then they spread more through Caliphate and turned 1/3 of the Christian world through war and peaceful measures into islam. If you look at fundamentally CHristians follow Jesus, Muslims follow Muhammad. One is more peaceful than the other, one dies for us, while the other has people die for him. Im talking the core of the religion, not muslims, but im talking islam here. However way you want to define it, the prophet whether he used a sword or not, his followers did while he was alive and they were justified. Apostles of CHrist? They were told how to spread their message. What makes you Christian? believing in CHrist. What makes you a muslim? Beleving in muammad as the final messenger and no god but one god(Allah). Look into these two guys and there is a obvious difference. Now lets forget KKK, ISIS, or inquisition or whoever. It all stems from the core.

(Qur’an 8:59) “The infidels should not think that they can get away from us. Prepare against them whatever arms and weaponry you can muster so that you may terrorize them.” (Qur'an 9:71) "O Prophet, strive hard [fighting] against the unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be harsh with them. Their abode is Hell, an evil refuge indeed." (Qur'an 4:168) "Those who reject [Islamic] Faith, Allah will not forgive them nor guide them to any path except the way to Hell, to dwell therein forever. And this to Allah is easy." (Qur'an 4:114) "He who disobeys the Apostle after guidance has been revealed will burn in Hell." (Ishaq:344) "We smote them and they scattered. The impious met death. They became fuel for Hell. All who aren't Muslims must go there. It will consume them while the Stoker [Allah] increases the heat. They had called Allah's Apostle a liar. They claimed, 'You are nothing but a sorcerer.' So Allah destroyed them." (Qur'an 33:60) "Truly, if the Hypocrites stir up sedition, if the agitators in the City do not desist, We shall urge you to go against them and set you over them. They shall have a curse on them. Whenever they are found, they shall be seized and slain without mercy - a fierce slaughter - murdered, a horrible murdering." (Qur'an 33:64) "Verily Allah has cursed the Unbelievers [whom he defines as Christians in the 5th surah] and has prepared for them a Blazing Fire to dwell in forever. No protector will they find, nor savior. That Day their faces will be turned upside down in the Fire. They will say: 'Woe to us! We should have obeyed Allah and obeyed the Messenger!' 'Our Lord! Give them double torment and curse them with a very great Curse!'" (Qur'an 5:10) "Those who reject, disbelieve and deny Our signs, proofs and verses will be companions of Hell-Fire." (Qur'an 88:1) "Has the narration reached you of the overwhelming (calamity)? Some faces (all disbelievers, Jews and Christians) that Day, will be humiliated, downcast, scorched by the burning fire, while they are made to drink from a boiling hot spring." (Bukhari:V1B11N617) "I would order someone to collect firewood and another to lead prayer. Then I would burn the houses of men who did not present themselves at the compulsory prayer and prostration." (Bukhari:V1B11N626) "The Prophet said, 'No prayer is harder for the hypocrites than the Fajr. If they knew the reward they would come to (the mosque) even if they had to crawl. Certainly I decided to order a man to lead the prayer and then take a flame to burn all those who had not left their houses for the prayer, burning them alive inside their homes.'" (Bukhari:V4B52N260) "The Prophet said, 'If a Muslim discards his religion, kill him.'" (Qur'an 5:51) "Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends." (Surah 9:29) "Fight Those Who Do Not Believe…" (Surah 2:190-) “Slay them wherever you find them...Idolatry is worse than carnage...Fight against them until idolatry is no more and God's religion reigns supreme." (Surah 2:216) "Fighting is obligatory for you, much as you dislike it." (Surah 3:19) "The only true faith in God's sight is Islam." (Surah 3:118-119) "Believers, do not make friends with any but your own people...They desire nothing but your ruin....You believe in the entire Book...When they meet you they say: 'We, too, are believers.' But when alone, they bite their finger-tips with rage." (Surah 4:103-) "Seek out your enemies relentlessly." (Surah 5:18) "The Jews and Christians say: 'We are the children of God and His loved ones.' Say: 'Why then does He punish you for your sins?" (Surah 5:51) "Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends." "Believers, when you encounter the infidels on the march, do not turn your backs to them in flight. If anyone on that day turns his back to them, except it be for tactical reasons...he shall incur the wrath of God and Hell shall be his home..." (Surah 8:36-) "Make war on them until idolatry shall cease and God's religion shall reign supreme." (Muslims 001,0031, The Hadith) “I have been ordered to wage war against mankind until they accept that there is no God but Allah, and that they believe that I am his prophet, and accept all revelations spoken throught me.” (Bukhari, 4,52,196) “I have been directed to fight the Kafirs until everyone of them admits, There is only on God and that is Allah” (Surah 2:190-) "Slay them wherever you find them...Idolatry is worse than carnage...Fight against them until idolatry is no more and God's religion reigns supreme." (Surah 2:216) "Fighting is obligatory for you, much as you dislike it." (Surah 4:103-) "Seek out your enemies relentlessly." (Surah 9:12-) "...make war on the leaders of unbelief...Make war on them: God will chastise them at your hands and humble them. He will grant you victory over them..." (Surah 9:27-) "Fight against such as those to whom the Scriptures were given [Jews and Christians]...until they pay tribute out of hand and are utterly subdued." (Surah 9:121-) "Believers, make war on the infidels who dwell around you. Deal firmly with them." (Bukhari 4.52.220) The Prophet said: “I have been made victorious with terror.” (Sahih Muslim 30) Muhammad said: ‘I have been commanded to fight against people so long as they do not declare that there is no God but Allah” (Sahih Al-Bukhari 6922) Allah Messenger said “If anyone changed his Islamic religion, kill him” They are not your friends: (Qur'an 3:28) “Believers should not take Kafirs as friends in preference to other believers. (Surah 5:51) “Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends."

It's so sad how they treat women. I once saw a little girl covered from head to toe in thick clothing. She was only about 6 years old. Her brother was wearing shorts and a T-shirt. She was wearing a hijab, a thick dress, and thick socks and boots. She asked her father if she could take just one layer of clothing off, and he rebuked her so firmly, he almost yelled. In public. What rational reason is there to treat a small child like that? For goodness' sake. What was so wrong with her wearing 4 layers of clothes instead of 5? She just wanted to be a child, but she couldn't on account of her gender. Because as a 6 year old, she had to "cover up". What's sad is that she is probably going to grow up looking down her nose at Christian women who dress normally, and she's probably going to appreciate the oppressive thing her father did to her that day.

+Dorothyellen w yes, but the eastern orthodox christian church (numbering around 300+ mill), which is as old as the catholic church (but has no pope), never persecuted anyone, and in fact was under the brute rule of the islamist ottoman empire for a long period of time. it did not go through any 'reformation' like the west in its theology and has always been peaceful till this day. so this notion that western christianity 'settled' down or got its act together because of the reformation and despite it or due to other factors is not solid. if this was the case the eastern orthodox church should be still beheading and conducting witch hunts to this day.

There is no misconception. Almost every Muslim country supports these punishments. Some are more strict than others but they do. Even some of the secular countries will.

They are trying to get away for their safety. You know deep down this is true. It is delusional not to.

Also, in Syria if u meet a religious Muslim , his ideologies r closer to isis ideology than a normal Muslim. Which proves the isis is Islam. And, as u might know, Saudi Arabia didn’t declare isis as its enemy and in fact it funds them. That is bcz isis is the real Islam. Moderate Muslims r really cool tho

Its not easy leaving islamic culture in many parts of the world and in europe and america as well(that boggles my mind too, if you come here to raise your kids here why have a problem of them leaving the faith when coming to a non-muslim nation).

But I do like how Islamists like you automatically denounce as a "bigot" anybody who speaks out against the most bigoted religious ideology on the planet. How dare he? Off with his head! Isn't that what the Koran (8:12) says? ;)

ΜΑΚΕΔΑΝΟΣ Bill Maher has a long track record of Islamophobia. It's one thing to speak out against Islamic extremists, which Muslims do all the time. But his problem (and it sounds like you think alike) is that he condemns the entire religion as intrinsically evil. If you want to make that claim and be believed by intelligent people, then you have to have an Islamic scholar on air to discuss the issues at question to see if they have a convincing response. If you don't want to even hear the other side, then your ideas will go unchallenged, and in that case they aren't that valuable because they very well could be false. Who would ever judge a debate where only one side speaks?

amuslimguy "Islamophobia" is simply Islamist code for any criticism of Islam. No intelligent person is buying it any more. Don't pretend that you're genuinely interested in any sort of debate, when hurling accusations of Islamophobia is your preferred method of shutting it down. And yes, Islam is an intrinsically evil religion. One only has to read the Koran and hadiths to establish that. No amount of whitewashing from Islamic "scholars" can alter the verses which explicitly and unambiguously call for the murder and subjugation of infidels, women, homosexuals etc. Especially not when the vast majority of Muslims agree with them even today. Bill Maher has got it exactly right.

ΜΑΚΕΔΑΝΟΣ And "criticism of Islam" is your code for hate speech and bigotry. I'm not buying it. I've had numerous debates and dialogues online with intelligent people who were critical of Islam, and that's something that I have thoroughly enjoyed doing. Everything can be discussed, as there are two sides to everything. If you think I want to silence all criticism with phony labels, then perhaps you're someone who wants to silence all objections to unfair criticisms by expecting us to swallow it. I invite you, if you're up to the challenge, to bring your evidence and put together a rational and dispassionate attack on Islamic teachings and values and allow me the chance to explain them in a way you may not have appreciated before. I am nearly certain that your position is uninformed, but rather it is inspired by the disinformation and outright lies that are spread about Islam by haters. Islamophobia is a very real phenomenon, no less real than anti-Semitism was or racism, and there is an entire industry of hatred against Muslims. There are people who make a living going around speaking ill of Islam, and not surprisingly, none of them has any formal Islamic academic training. It's like someone who has never been to medical school railing on physicians and modern medical practice, saying "they're all evil, trying to make money off sick people by making them more sick. Just read their textbooks where they talk about cutting up people alive with scalpels. They need to be stopped."

amuslimguy Predictably, you accuse me of hate speech and bigotry, but subscribe to a religious ideology that is demonstrably the most hateful and bigoted the world has ever known. The evidence for my claim lies in the Islamic texts themselves, as well as the way in which they are interpreted by the vast majority of Muslims. By constantly accusing critical non-Muslims of "Islamophobia", you resort to the same tactic used by Islamic extremists the world over to stifle any criticism of Islam. This is a very real phenomenon, as demonstrated by the hysterical reaction to any perceived attack on Islam. Allow me then not to take your allegations too seriously. For the record, I would never expect a Muslim to buy or swallow anything an "infidel" says about Islam, since that is expressly forbidden by your religious texts. And spare me the "invitation to dialogue" dawah bullshit; I've dealt with enough online jihadists to know how you operate. One need only take note of your use of the past tense in regards to the existence of anti-Semitism. When your very identity is based on a visceral hatred of the Jews, of the West, and of anyone else who dares to oppose Islam, you are really in no position to lecture others on tolerance. If there is indeed an entire industry of hatred against Muslims, you have only your belief system and yourselves to blame.

Just my personal view with this interview but Bill Maher is correct, although I think he is an atheist. But all religions are not the same or produce the same out come. I think there is an intellectual laziness on the part of the media, since most running it have no strong religious beliefs and therefore discard religions under the same umbrella and fall over themselves to try to equate them all into the same ideas. But they aren't. Examples, India subscribes to reincarnation and views all creatures as the same, the rat, the cow etc. So when the Red Cross or others help people born without limbs by prosthetics the shamans actually have attacked them believing they are hindering that person from working out the sins of their former life. India is still a third world country because of those beliefs. Therefore progress can't happen. Japanese belief in Shintoism etc. and during WWII believed the Chinese were inferior due to their beliefs of Buddhism and butchered those people. All religions produce very different world systems, economic and social and very distinct from one another. I have yet to see a system that has no idea of the here-after create anything great in history or present. I still believe the Judeo-Christian belief system got most people out of the dark ages and those who move to other areas of belief as a governmental system go deeper into collapse. AKA the Americas and Europe. Sure Bill would disagree but I don't think it is happen chance the greatest of societies to this day stemmed from those ideologies. Not meaning human beings didn't misread or abuse certain ideas. Sure the blogs will be ugly but give me great examples of great atheist systems or other religious ones that have worked better.

There was a time when all Christians were Catholics for over 1500 years before protestantism began,you pals are completely naive about Church-history

islam dont respect women? but christian respects women? hmmm read this... 1-A wife is a man’s property: You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor. Exodus 20:17 2-Daughters can be bought and sold: If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as male servants do. Exodus 21:7 3-A raped daughter can be sold to her rapist: 28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, 29 he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives. Deuteronomy 22:28-29 4-Collecting wives and sex slaves is a sign of status: He [Solomon] had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray. 1 Kings 11:3 5-Used brides deserve death: If, however the charge is true and no proof of the girl’s virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. Deuteronomy 22:20-21. 6-Women, but only virgins, are to be taken as spoils of war: Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man. Numbers 31:17-18 7-Women should be seen not heard: Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. 1 Corinthians 14:34 8-Wives should submit to their husband’s instructions and desires: Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Colossians 3:18 9-In case you missed that submission thing . . . : Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Ephesians 5:22-24.

There are three religions that refer to Abraham as Father: The three religions are: (1) Judaism, (2) Christianity, and (3) Islam. Each of these three religions has its own “official holy book”. For Judaism, the Official Holy Book is the Old Testament. Without the Old Testament, there is on Judaism. For Christianity, the Official Holy Book is the New Testament. Without the New Testament, there is no Christianity. For Islam, the official holy book is the Quran. Without the Quran, there is no Islam. Each religion stands or dies by its own official holy book. In a true and honest discussion, you cannot point to any verse in the Official Holy Book of Christianity (New Testament) that supports violence of any kind against another human being. In fact, in Christianity, the “Word of God” is in twofold: (1) The “Word of God” inspired (Bible), and (2) The “Word of God” Begotten (Jesus Christ). Christianity is not founded on the “Word of God” (The Bible), but rather on the “Word of God” (Begotten). It is upon Jesus Christ (His Life, His Death, and His Resurrection) that Christianity stands and operates. In John 8:46, Jesus asked the question: “Can you prove me guilty of any sin?” This has prompted the self-examining question in the heart of every Christian: “What would Jesus do?” Mankind, as a whole, is predisposed to violence, which in self-defense, is a necessary evil. The assumption that Western radical organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan, the White Supremacy, and White Nationalism get their directives (instructions) from the verses of the New Testament, which is the Official Holy Book of Christianity, is a delusion (mistake).

White Nationalist National Socialist Yes they are moron. The 'Jesus myth theory' doesnt exist outside of internet athiest circles. If you were to take that argument to an official debate you would be laughed off stage. That is NOT a scholarly argument, and NO actuall athiest apologist attempts to use it. The historical figure of Jesus of Nazareth is literally the most verifiable man in history. There is a reason nearly the entire Earth counts down time based upon. "Jesus of Nazareth death and crucifixion at the hands of Ponchus Pilut is the most easily verifiable event in all of human history" Leading Athiest historian and scholar Bart D Ehrman. The actual athiest argument in debates and apologetic circles is that the biblical Jesus is just an embellished mythinization of the historical figure of Jesus of Nazareth. Lmfao, you are aware what a 'Miracle' is, right? Do you understand the definition of that word? Your assumption that no miracles ever occured is you simply assuming athiesm and non materialism to be correct. Sorry buddy, but when trying to discredit an opposing ideology in an actual discussion or debate, we need more then just the empty assumption of yours being correct. Oh and, Jesus was God, so no, I dont really believe a 'man' walked on water, rather that a God in perfect union with humanity walked on water.
