Not preaching, just pointing out the religious hatred and bigotry that defines organized religions.
You have no right to tell them what to preach and what not to. We have free speech in this country - if you don't like what they say, don't listen. Everybody is not going to embrace gays, get over it. The best you can expect, is tolerance. You have that.
Liberals are leaches sucking off the host, by finding evermore "victims" to champion their cause, so they can stick it to the traditional American culture.
Take the spotted owl. Now the owl has another owl competing for the same territory, so their solution is to put a bounty on the new bird of prey to rescue their perceived victim, the spotted owl. My point is don't mess with nature, it takes care of its own. The gays can do their thing, the churches will do theirs, and nature always prevails.

Yes there are hypocritical Christians. The only problem I have with most of what Maher said is that he only seems to notice when it is Christians or conservatives displaying hypocrisy. He blatantly ignores it from the left an of course his own.

But then again, this is the guy who boldly asserted that Brazil has been off oil for 30 years, so he is obviously an intellectual midget that simply parades as a thinker to the brain dead left the same way Glenn Beck does to the right.

What are you talking about? He name-checked Obama.

Default BM a non entity not worth quoting

To dote on BM's words is to give credence to the mooing of a sacred cow as interpreted by a high priest for the unwashed minions. Moo means moo.

Mahr thinks you are all ignorant dolts who need the government to take care of you. Embrace him as a beaten dog wags his tail to the master who beat him.

Maher is not the only one with such opinions. His statements in the video have nothing to do with the government taking care of people.

If pressed, though, it is highly likely that the things he would say about government, and his faith in its ability to resurrect people, careers, economies, and the environment, and its ability to offer meaning to otherwise empty lives, would rival the views of the most fervent monotheist.

That's theft, not charity.
How do you think health insurance companies work?
