Bill Maher: Pope ‘Used to be a Nazi’; Compares Church to Cult,
Bear Stearns

NewsBusters

Bill Maher, true to form on his "Real Time" program on HBO on Friday, went on
a tirade against Pope Benedict XVI and the Catholic Church, only days before
the Pope’s visit to the U.S.. He stated that the Pope "used to be a Nazi" and
compared him to a cult leader. He then went on to call the Church a
"child-abusing religious cult" and "the Bear Stearns of organized pedophilia."
"And that’s the Church’s attitude: 'We’re here, we’re queer, get used to it,'
which is fine, far be it from me to criticize religion."

Following a profanity-tinged one-liner concerning the raid on the Texas
compound of Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Maher
quipped, "In fact, whenever a cult leader sets himself up as God’s infallible
wingman here on Earth, lock away the kids. Which is why I’d like to tip off
law enforcement to an even larger child-abusing religious cult. Its leader
also has a compound, and this guy not only operates outside the bounds of the
law, but he used to be a Nazi and he wears funny hats. That’s right, the Pope
is coming to America this week and ladies, he’s single!" At the "funny hat"
line, Maher displayed a picture of Pope Benedict wearing a wide-brimmed hat
called a saturno.

Bill Maher is a few cards short of a "FULL DECK"!

Maher is merely a tinkling cymbal, signifying nothing. The airwaves
(cablewaves?) are awash with these nattering nabobs.

Very true. Otherwise there would be no explaination for such an idiotic
tirade.

I could care less whether he likes the Pope, or believes anything the Pope
says or does. I doubt that very many of the few who watch his show do either.
