Bill Maher on 'Religulous'

[@dcamron46]

Oh if only Bill knew how cynical it was gonna get…Bush was closer to Jefferson than Trump is to Bush

[@-RockOn-]

He truly has guts. I watched the documentary and it was excellent. He pointed so many things that people belive in blindly without actually questioning.

[@hollymadelyn1116]

Yes but most of his claims about Christianity and the Egyptian gods hold no merit. Though they existed the stories of them from what he ascribed are not found by Egyptian artifacts, scholars or Egyptians themselves. They are stories only touted by Mysticism and not by the actual Egyptian theology. It’s quite bizarre because they can not be proven but they can not be entirely disproven either which is why he was able to show them. The absence of evidence which is the atheist way is shattered with his argument.

I have a question… What religion does NOT ask for money ???

@@hollymadelyn1116 You sound like you got that from a religious site. I've been on those sites. They want you to believe so hard that the story of Horus, which is a real story told well before Jesus isn't similar when it is.

Religion is all about money and power. It is not about what anyone says what God says. When a person says to you “Worship my god, do what my god says,” They are really saying to you “Do what I say, WORSHIP ME!" “Give me power over your life and give me your money."

What if we went back in time to when the bible was supposedly written and find out it was merely a fictional best seller in the Mediterranean 🤣🤣

But talking about the symbolic meaning of the ridiculous fables, that's not funny enough?

[@JulianWaugh-u2o]

While religion had its uses for perhaps morality but that is small part of the money grab. If people become educated acknowledge science and logic they will throw off the superstitions that bind them

[@charlesnwarren]

"Religulous" serves Bill Maher's comedic purpose and his audience well, but it fails to give credit where credit is due to Christianity in every imaginable way. In total, it amounts to a biased and simplistic account of religion, historically, it's based on hyped-up agnostic views on modern politics. Rather than consulting lwith eading authorities on matters of faith and religion, Maher selected interviewees who could have easily been found in awkward situations. And then he saw fit to run with it in terms of some kind of arbiter for how modern, socio-political reckonings on religion should somehow be considered "ridiculous." Disgraceful behavior from a stand-up comic, would-be commentator on politics and especially religion.

[@kellywilliamson2187]

@@charlesnwarren Bla bla bla - all religions are but infantile superstitious myths -early mans' attempt to explain reality. It is so remarkable to see where these myths morphed into the nuanced intricate bullshit we see today. SO many people have been murdered over the argument over what happens when we die . . .
