Today Featuring: Bill Maher
"Noah’s tale is an “immoral” one because it’s about a “psychotic mass murderer who gets away with it and his name is God.” The Earth’s creator became so irate that he had created mankind so flawed, as Maher related, that he sent a flood to kill everyone, including babies." Bill Maher
Via Mediaite:
On Friday evening, Bill Maher‘s “New Rules” segment concluded with a lengthy tirade against the arbitrary rules and customs set forth in the Bible, as well as some of the more unbelievable details religious folks still believe to be literally true.
Maher began the monologue by declaring that America is “stupid” because 60 percent of the country reportedly believes the tale of Noah’s ark is literally true. He went on to slam the film Noahas “floating giraffe crap,” but said it “must be doing something right” since it’s been condemned by both Muslims and Christians. And the fact that it might lose a lot of studio money, he joked, “may put it in hot water with the Jews too.”
That gave way to a rant on how the world is now four centuries removed from the scientific revolution, and yet we still find the Noah’s ark story to be entirely true, despite some of the more… unbelievable… details. Christians are mad about the blockbuster film, he noted, because it doesn’t take the Bible literally enough. “They’re mad that this made-up story doesn’t stay true to their made-up story,” he quipped.
But, really, Maher said, Noah’s tale is an “immoral” one because it’s about a “psychotic mass murderer who gets away with it and his name is God.” The Earth’s creator became so irate that he had created mankind so flawed, as Maher related, that he sent a flood to kill everyone, including babies.

For your information Bill, God makes the rules, not man. Man thinks he or she has a handle on it, but the more we stray from the original, moral rules that have self-governed (not man-governed) mankind from the beginning of time, the more our society is endangered and set to become extinct. America, Bill, is the only state ever created based upon the independence of the individual. Every previous governmental rule was proven to be wrong, given the fact that they were less successful and less compassionate to their society. Our problem is that our elected officials have abused their positions and have denied their obligations to ensure their own wealth and power. I would advise you Bill, to re-read the Constitution as an adult and see what our Founding Fathers created. You will find that the politicians of today have rejected those principles the Constitution and our Founding Fathers developed.
