I had to clap when Bill said how he never understood how Black people could adopt the God of the slave master.
I never understood why Native Americans & Black people could love a religion that was brought to the Americas by European Empires.
Columbus even forcibly converted the Natives to Catholicism.
+Ron R exactly
+Ron R For Survival
Because he was the god of the winners, so he's a winner.
+Ron R I think it's because the bible has a quote for both sides of everything. The slave masters and the abolitionsits not only used the same bible to support their arguments but often the exact same passages. That plus the fact that when your life is nothing but pain and heartache the thought of a "better life" after you die can be very alluring.
+Ron R
Following religion is all about following *the right one*. So what if you stick to your guns and follow the faith of your ancestors, if their faith is wrong? The afterlife/eternity matters much more than the few decades you get to spend on Earth.
I'm Lithuanian and while 80% of the country is Catholic, most of us are also somehow proud of our history of sucessfully resisting the Crusaders and remaining the last pagans in Europe. If the crusaders were right all along, though, our ancestors were stupid for resisting them all those years. You have to be an idiot to reject the right religion only because it was brought to you by force.
Of course, there's no reason to believe that Christianity is the right religion but those brought up with it like to assume it.
him quoting the bible doesn't make him right just like me quoting and Dr sues book does not make it real.
Not in this context he's just using the quote to justify why the oppressed gravitate to Christianity. It'd be like quoting green eggs and ham to say the story's about trying new things
+kefkapalazzo1 yeah but eggs are high in cholesterol and ham is salty, processed meat. So too is the bible filled with contradictions and archaic, primitive thinking which are killers just like green eggs and ham...
+kefkapalazzo1 speaking of Ham... Slave owners used the curse of Ham that Noah imposed on his son (Ham) to justify slavery...
+Brandon Powell I'll quote something that is real "hey ey Aah eeey! Smoke weed everyday!"
The question was whether the Bible caused slave masters to enslave Africans. Whether the Bible is true I'd another conversation.
Ralph Reed=Hitchslap victim.
Anybody who loves Christopher Hitchens has my respect.
+Krizzly You shouldn't support Bernie Sanders then.
+zenanarchist Hitchens was a socialist.
Hitchens has been dead for how long now he got bitch slapped by cancer andor God.
Yvan also one of the biggest supporters for Bush's foreign policy, while Sanders has called the Iraq War "one of the worst foreign policy blunders in the history of the US".
It is so depressing how many Christians know absolutely nothing about their super special book that is the center of their worldview.
so do muslims
+Mateusz Czyz All religious people are stupid im bigotet against all of them!
+Abnormal Wrench The truth is inconvenient to their narrative. Similar to how very few Christian know how derivative Christianity is. Virgin birth etc. were all stolen from previous mythology. Not to mention all the stolen pagan rituals. When you look at those sort of facts it's hard not to conclude it was all made up by humans. Not even very original ones at that.
+Matt Pratt I disagree. If the same myths keep showing up everywhere, different ages, different geographical locations, different cultures altogether, unknown to each other, does not prove they are made up. On the contrary, it would tend to prove there is a common thread, a basic truth somewhere that has been deformed by time and religions.
listen at the end of the day each religion has its flaws...but look, christians, jews, athiests, buddhists. hindus, confusionists, etc, are not the ones threatening the world and blowing themselves up.
Best part is Cornel "He's a fellow Christian, he's just wrong about a lot of things that's all." If congress worked like this panel (various opinions but still respectful and kind) we'd be in a better place.
Cornell west is not right about anything he cares more about using the Bible for his agenda then following it.
bulldogsbob who's right or wrong wasn't the point
Imani Leach
What fantasy world do you live in incapable worldviews can't co exist
+Imani Leach
well said
+Imani Leach I think west was the civilizing force of this debate... he always is...
Sean Hannity his literal polar opposite once said after a heated debate with him. "I dont know why I like you... I just do" Basically saying I disagree with you on *everything* but i still want to be your friend. Corny shit but if only we could all be as inspiring as West.
West is just a like able guy. He will tell you why you are wrong, then ask if you would come over to his place for dinner afterwords.
Agree or disagree with his politics... he strives for truth (what he has concluded to be true) and brotherhood.
He doesnt call everyone brothers and sisters because its cool or hip or 'black'. He actually loves 'thy neighbor'.
I am anti-religious... but West makes me think man. I once said i would never vote for a pious individual. I must caveat that. Unless its Cornel West.
West was hilarious in this episode and really enjoyed watching Nicolle Wallace with him. Great lady, even if I don't agree with her political views.
+Megan C Yes. Love her laugh too. Very infectious. Even when her side is being laughed at.
+Megan C Exactly what I was thinking. She was really funny and likable in this one
+Megan C Nicolle was a breath of fresh air when she took over for Hasselbeck on The View. She has very good moderate Republican views and if there were more like her in Congress (some Dems also) this country would be much better off.
+Megan C
Yeah, this was a nice show seeing people getting along and having a good time.
Why are right-wingers so closed minded on some things?
Jesusy. I'm stealin' That one Bill!
cliche as hell and substandard by his own standard
+Marq Mac Good, he won't miss it when I put in the lexicon.
+MegaRomeg "I'm stealin' That one", yes, celebrate your black culture. ;-)
+k3nny111 celebrate these nuts bigot.
+MegaRomeg :-P
The best episode of Real Time I've seen in a long, long time. Zero cringes, great laughs, awesome guests (Al Gore!!!) and interviews and spirited yet polite discussion of some touchy topics. Kudos Bill and happy 60th (fan since the early P.I. days when I was still in grade school).
Or maybe I'm just high. lol....nah, it was a damn good show, good enough to motivate me to write a post about it.
This episode felt really good to me.
It had a special vibe.
It really did.
Maybe it was the birthday.
That lady in red was very giddy tonight...she laughed at almost everything lol
She is always giddy
+Bastiano Rossi
bill got her stoned
+Ryan Alex giggity
Great show this week, so much laughter!
What a great panel ...The whole show and the Overtime ! They were very in synch with each other.
As much as I disagree with a lot about Ralph Reed, he does have a sense of humor!!!
One of the best overtimes! !
And I think one of Bill's best shows of all time.
"I never understood how black people wanted to adopt the god of the slave master". You won't hear Steven Colbert say that. Impecable panel, top quality TV.
Bill's satire's so smoothly honed he's a master of the charming put-down
"He's a fellow Christian, he's just wrong about a lot of things"
Rekt
We love you Bill Maher!
Cornel West is my favorite celebrity homeless person
cornell west, as always, was hilarious and enjoyable to watch. a nice change of pace at times. good show.
Already signed the petition. :)
Asking "what's up with diversity" and assuming it's a "liberal thing" to bend over backwards to nominate undeserving but diverse groups is THE biggest problem that liberals face. I don't know what the problem is in understanding the difference between equality of opportunity and equality of outcome. One of those ways is CLEARLY and UNEQUIVOCALLY the wrong approach. Take the test and see if you're a reasonable person or a narrative driven and reality averse ideologue. Forced diversity is just another form of discrimination. A "tyranny of the minority".
One of his BEST & Funny as usual. But my favorite was what he said after new rules & not just about President Obama's visit. Big Kudos out to you Bill, you may not think it, but you are an inspiration!!!
And...happy birthday bill. Thank you for all the years of laughs that you've given us, and all the serious topics that you made us think about. May you live as long as you're happy.
god west is so lovable. his energy is infectious. even the gop cant help liking him
Great opener for the new year. Plus I signed the petition also.
Cornel West is an absolute joy to have on this show, he at once brings so much humorous energy and so much incisive intellect to the discussion, and has such an entertaining and grandiose style of presentation to top it all off. Probably my favorite recurring Maher guest besides Sam Harris and Neil DeGrasse Tyson
When John walked in i was like wtf?! what Jim from the office is doing here? ;) Didn't expect that one,great episode.
Dr. Cornel West should have his own show , he is really funny
THANK GOD this guy is still on air.
I've missed this show!! So happy you are back...Love you Bill Maher!
That went from 0 to 100 with that line
Glad you're on again Bill Maher, the petition is signed also. TOTAL SIGNATURES ON THIS PETITION 10,038 was the last signature, only 89,962 left.
This will be filled well before Feb.14
DarkReflections86 I agree, you see a lot of petitions that don't get attention. That is a good idea on why he hasn't been on his show but he also has spoken with(let's be honest) less important and influential people, even like Zach Galifinakis and The girl with green lips so Bill Maher is right when he says that. I think it is because Bill throws a lot of controversial curve balls when he talks to politicians and maybe that had them on edge about coming on the show, but i don't think he will turn this down..
+DarkReflections86 We can only hope that he accepts it and goes on the show. not much we can do about the end choice.
are you serious? 115, 000 signatures?
L7692 BLACK
People REALLY want to see Obama on the show i guess..
Religious person getting owned. Lol
West got Krasinski to stand up and applaud the gospel in front Bill Maher. Amen!
This is one of the best bill maher moments haha the panel is sweet
Holy fuck, its Jim from the office
Cornell West lost so many cool points with that ridiculous bible quote.
He should look into invisalign.
+j.denino57 At 70 do you really think he gives a shit what his teeth look like?
+Daniel hall Not in this context he's just using the quote to justify why the oppressed gravitate to Christianity
+Logic Time but he is failing to recognize the actual point. The oppressed no longer gravitate towards christianity people who are force fed that bs gravitate towards it. Slaves were converted violently to the christian faith and any black american celebrating that religion need to do some serious soul searching. This is coming from an american who is half black and half white ironically lol.
Thanks for posting this!
John Krasinski is like me in group projects
Ralph Reed, yuck, every time I hear or see this guy, I feel like washing my hands, eyes and ears. He is an absolute slime ball!
Jesusy panel today...
This had to be one of the best shows. I admit i have not seen R.T in a while, but this panel was great I enjoyed it very much.
I just love Nicole Wallace and Cornel West lol. Such nice people.
He's back and immediaetly goes into fighting the bible. Good to be back Bill.
I'm disappointed on how brainwashed John is.
+Bernie Leiva How is John brainwashed?
+Jonathan White Bernie Sanders 2016 bruh.
+TM56 with all the religious stuff man...
+Bernie Leiva
It was fun to watch the panel form alliances with each other over religion, while Bill was just in disbelief, literally, about every panel member around him deluding themselves with biblical stories.
But it was at the same time sad to see how devoted they are in believing their bullshit, i did not specifically expect it from John, that standing ovation.. ah well whatever.
+Bernie Leiva Agreed.
This was a great show!
HBD Bill
Go Bill, GO!! Cornel - you are a SWEETHEART!
I didn't knew Don King was still alive.
Love this panel! And Bill
This episode just skyrocketed to the top of my list.
They all hate each other lol. i have never heard so much fake laughter in such a short period of time.
"Bill Clinton is such a gifted politician..." The sick part is, he didn't even mean that as a backhanded compliment.
Guests had great chemistry.
Great Overtime episode!
when there and it says " Petition Closed
This petition can no longer be signed."
WTHF
8:45 possibly greatest moment of real time lol
The best panel type program today! No matter the delivery platform bar none......
So glad Bill is back.
best overtime in a while
I like that it took Cornel West five minutes to get that handshake, but he never gave up on it.
Also that girl sucked the fun outta the room when she told Bill not to divide the panel. Relax lady.
Ralph looks like the T-1000 from Terminator 2.
+Cinestar Productions Or old Marty McFly in Back to the Future 2
That was a really interesting Overtime
No one but Bill would have so bluntly called out Reed like this. I love it.
Great panel. Even Ralph
I love this panel and Bill Maher =)
Cornell West sure can memorize a bunch, I just wish he could THINK
Go Bill, go Bill!
Thank you Bill. From one Black man 62 years old who's never had use for either a God or a Jesus. Ever.
haha this was a good episode.
Bill Maher not understanding the basic definition of "contemporary" is pretty hilarious
excellent
this was a gooood panel...for some reason, it worked
this is how America should be..So free that you can talk about anything without anyone gettting his feelings hurts.
great show this week
I love cornel west, this is such quality TV and discussion right here. SO entertaining and interesting
Cornell is such a humorous guy. Great guy.
Excellent explanation John - about the Oscars!
5600 views? Did the mariachi band make everyone forget about overtime?
Easily one of the better Overtimes!
It's great to see people gleefully disagreeing.
I am not religious but still a BIG fan of Doc. WEST.
This comment section is just like Maher's audience a bunch of trained clapping seals.
+bulldogsbob kind of like everything on tv?
Sure but Liberals pretend they are open minded when they are the biggest trained seals they are
bulldogsbob
yeah that's everywhere. give someone power and they'll use it.. If it can keep people inline without hurting anything.. it should be fine. It's just.. religion takes it too far is all. I'm sure others do as well.. kind of like oh say.. higher ups do it as well.
Bobby Rare
not all religions are the same Islam and Christianity are very different faiths.
bulldogsbob
I'm not talking about completely the same. I'm talking about the main belief is always the same.
This has been the best panel ever
It's great to here preachers other than myself. And it ain't imaginary, ye of little faith. Preach on!
Maybe it's me but saying "Cornell, if you may, stay in your seat." would have been quite appropriate.
Either way Bill Maher and Dr.West are epic.
Also, if you're reading this sign the petition. :)
To Bill Maher,
I have enjoyed your show to no end and could not describe what it has meant to me to hear your views. I have disagreed with you on numerous cautions but have always felt that you are a genuine person (whether that's down to great acting or you're just being yourself I could not say). You are a great, nay the greatest advocate for drawing a line on were you view society should stand on religion, politics, drugs and matters of civil liberties. I should be, on most counts against your views due my upbringing. But have grown to understand that not all things are black and white, through you i have experienced what it would mean to a living as you see fit and wish for more than nothing else that everyone gets to see the same. I wish I could have been at your show when you came to my country but could not afford it at the time. Anyway, excuse me for rambling (it could not be helped). I just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday and many more breath taking years. I wish I could give to you what you given me but I hope this heart felt Birthday wish will suffice. I hope this reaches you, but it doesn't I will bring it with me to the next show you do here.
Your Sincerely,
Marlin
just signed it but your way past 200k at this point lol happy birthday bill.
the attacks on New Years Eve in Germany were committed by recent refugees however you were mistaken of their origin. The vast majority of the offenders were from North Africa not Syria as this was stated by the Cologne police.
+Kevin McIntosh "the attacks on New Years Eve in Germany were committed by recent refugees..."
How do you know that?
Cornell West is the height of "cool". He just awesomes his way across life!
Great panel.
Bill Maher for president 3:)
Good job by you
My favorite line of Bill's in this episode was: "I never understood why black people wanted to adopt the 'God' of the slave master."
I love that because, as a black person, I've wondered about that too.
I know that during slavery and other historical times where we were discriminated against and treated horribly, we clung to religion to cope.
The black church like the ethopia branch existed long before the colonial period that part of the reason.
+bulldogsbob But wasn't it the Europeans who brought Christianity to the Africans and imposed it on their slaves and other Africans?
pppmanly
YOu painting everything with too broad a brush my friend most Africans accepted Christianity because of the missionary work in improving their lives like bringin modern Medicine.
In Ameica the Bible was the biggest force against slavery so many master didn't let slaves read the bible
"isn't dr ben the most jesusy of all of them?"
lol
Ralph Reed looks like he has a plan to destroy the Avenges
Happy Birthday, Brother Bill!
jesusy that's good!!
John Krasinksi is absolutely on-point with the fact that there's not enough opportunity in Hollywood for filmmakers of color both in front of and behind the camera. Bill is also right in that the nominees may have just been better than the candidates of color. But more performances in important movies by people of color will make this less of an issue in terms of who gets nominated.
