and yet the mllions of muslims in america haven't started jihad enmasse...hmmm
guess their waiting for Allah to give them the signal huh..
Just because 75% of the country are Christians doesn't make it a Christian country...hell,even the racist ass founding father didn't believe the church should be running the country...
All it means its that the population of the United States is 75% Christian..that's it...nothing more..nothing less...what's so fucking hard about that....

Yep..just that christian values justified slavery...christian values are used to write laws like jim crow...hell every presidential politician has to express christian beliefs...(I personally think Obama is agnostic at best but he knows what needs to be done to get elected)
so you can THINK this isn't a christian country..

America? There are 70% of 2 billion Muslims elsewhere ready to and committing Jihad. Muslims are not your friend. The Nation of Islam is fooling you niggas. Just becausewe adopted that shit here in the 50s don't align us with them savages. Their style of Islam is not the same.

75% of the people who consider themselves as Christian in the United States does not equal its a Christian nation ...again what part you don't understand...
This is basic shit we're talking about...
tell that to dave chappelle and muhammad ali..and 2 billion muslims elsewhere are NOT committing jihad and you lost any credibility with that dumbass statement... and NO ONE was even referring to NOI
we all know the difference
You're wrong.
It helps these cats defend Islam(speaking of which, are these cats bowing to Mecca....they intense with the propaganda).
A good number of Muslims support Sharia Law(not Jihad) -- which is batshit. You don't even have to bring up Jihad. It's the uppercut after you pepper them with the Ali-like Sharia jab.
So Muslims can be against terrorism and Jihad actions, but will want to cane someone for adultery.
To attack these apologists, it's easy to use Sharia law, THEN Jihadist, and THEN the people who support Jihadist but don't 'suit up' for the fight(think Christian rednecks in America who want to bomb all Muslims).
This shit is pure fucking comedy.

Learn to read, I said ready to commit jihad and 20% of world muslims are in an act of jihad somewhere now. 20% of 2 billion. Do the fucking math. 70% ready for jihad worldwide if Mohammed is insulte by the west, yet they can shit on Jesus all day and the idiot Christians are like eh. LOL at your examples, Dave Chapelle and Ali. Foh.
You know what makes Bill Maher argument invalid,he will co-sign Isreali soldiers kill innocent men,women and children and then turnaround and make a generalization about Muslims.....
Another thing that pissed me off about Bill is when he said "equality for minorities, including homosexuals." And then said it again a few minutes later.
Re: Ben Affleck goes at Bill Maher for "racist" and "ugly" views on Islamic principle
Imagine if Black folk were radicalized in the name of Blackness and destroying global white supremacy. The reality is that most of us are the irrelevant colonized scared to death negro majority.

Affleck praises wife, talks Maher spat before gala
NEW YORK (AP) — Ben Affleck feels more comfortable speaking his mind than pretending to say what people want to hear. So before receiving his award at Wednesday's Save the Children Illumination Gala, he praised wife Jennifer Garner on her dedication to their family, and then shared insight into his recent spat with "Real Time" host Bill Maher over generalized remarks about Islam.
As for Garner, the 42-year-old actor says he's grateful that his wife takes on the "lion's share" of responsibilities, dedicating her time to raising their three young children, while maintaining her career and charity work.
"She's been really smart about choosing her projects, doing 'Dallas Buyers Club' or 'Alexander and the Terrible Day,' smart, good movies that luckily have been successful. And then, they're not so time-consuming that she can't do this work and be there for our kids, which is the most important thing to her," Affleck said.
Garner spoke of how the couple divides their time for philanthropy.
"He works on Eastern Congo Initiative, and I work on the U.S. programs for Save the Children, and within that, I really work on getting kids started on the right foot from birth to 5, helping families get their kids up and ready for school and healthy," she said, adding: "We don't scatter our energy around."
Affleck co-founded the Eastern Congo Initiative in 2010 with Whitney Williams. The organization advocates the economic and social growth of the country through various programs. And while some of their missions focus on the well-being of children, Affleck says he doesn't make "value judgments" of where the problems are more dire.
"There are children in the United States, my wife has traveled, been in their homes in Kentucky, West Virginia, in the central valley of California who can't speak and they're 4 years old, who can't read until five years later than they should, who get no stimuli, who are really suffering, and we recognize it. In this country, with our wealth, with our, I think, decency and empathy, we should be taking care — at the very least educating all of our citizenry."
He added: "I also think it's important to take care of people who are suffering on a different level, which is in Eastern Congo suffering from war and famine and preventable disease. And where maternal health is non-existent, so 1 in 5 children dies before the age of 5."
Affleck was honored with the Global Child Advocate Award for his support in providing children around the world a stronger start in life. Among the evening's other recipients were former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who received the Global Legacy Award, and Austin Hearst of the Hearst Corp., who was honored with the Humanitarian Award.
NEW YORK (AP) — Ben Affleck feels more comfortable speaking his mind than pretending to say what people want to hear. So before receiving his award at Wednesday's Save the Children Illumination Gala, he praised wife Jennifer Garner on her dedication to their family, and then shared insight into his recent spat with "Real Time" host Bill Maher over generalized remarks about Islam.
On an episode last month, Affleck took issue with Maher saying that Islam is "the only religion that acts like the Mafia."
"I was ultimately making a 'Sesame Street' argument. You don't judge a whole group of people based on the actions of a few," Affleck said of their heated debate.
The "Gone Girl" actor makes no bones about speaking his mind when it comes to hot-button issues.
"That's the environment around my dinner table when we talk politics," he said. "I think I'd rather tell the truth and say what I believe in and make people unhappy than sort of pretend to think something else to accommodate them and try to be liked. That's just the way it goes and I don't think I'm any great champion of anything, but if they're going to put me on a show, I'm going to say what I think."

the actions of a FEW, is always the argument with Islam and the current state. I still think the question is do the majority cosign the actions of the radical minority in secret?
if there are BILLIONS of Muslims, then ill behavior could easily be wiped off the global scale if they had no support or safe havens.

Finally, Some Joy: Someone Found Ben Affleck’s Secret Instagram

First they came for Ben Affleck’s back tattoo and I said nothing, because I did not have a back tattoo. Then they came for Ben Affleck’s Raya, and I said nothing, because maybe it was a catfish. But now they’ve come for Ben Affleck’s finsta, and there is no one left to shitpost for me. In The Know reporter Kelsey Weekman discovered Ben Affleck’s finsta on Thursday and shared it with the world. The finsta — which, olds, is a private Instagram account used to share photos and jokes with a select number of people — is called “positiveattitudehunting” which is another way of saying good will hunting. Like that one movie he co-wrote.
The account definitely seems like it belongs to the erstwhile Batman: The profile photo is a picture of a couple kissing (guess who does a lot of kissing, all the time and in public), the bio says “just a dad who sometimes makes movies” (guess who is a dad who sometimes makes movies, good and bad); linked in the bio is asterncongo.org (guess who founded that charity).

What secret pics is Ben Affleck hiding from us on this account? How many iced coffee pics, how many tattoos?! The world feels impossible right now; everything is hard. Ar-go relish in this little crumb of comic relief.

Marc Maron Tells Bill Maher: ‘You’re a B—-‘ for Agreeing With ‘Some of the Stuff Trump Is Doing’

Marc Maron called out Bill Maher on the latest episode of the “WTF” podcast, which featured CNN host W. Kamau Bell as a guest (via The Daily Beast). Maron took issue with the “Real Time” host for being partial to “some of the things” Donald Trump is doing in his second administration as U.S. president.
“Are you going to be like Bill Maher, you know, ‘I’m going to agree with some of the things that Trump is doing,’” Maron said. “It’s like, dude, you’re a bitch.”
Per The Daily Beast: “[Maron] host continued to make fun of Maher for finding points of connection with members of the MAGA coalition, imitating him as he added, “”I like Kid Rock.” And now you’re gonna blow him with a slightly disdainful look on your face? That’s who you are?”
Maron has been critical of podcasters supporting Trump in the past. Before last year’s election, Trump appeared on Joe Rogan’s popular Spotify podcast. Shortly after, Maron posted a blog post in which he called out “comedians with podcasts” who “joke around” with “shameless, self-proclaimed white supremacists and fascists on their show,” saying, “all it does is humanize and normalize fascism.”
“Even though I do not do a political show I have been very clear in my specials and on the podcast that I believe, and have believed for years, what is brewing in this country is an American fascist movement rooted half in grievance and half in Jesus and enabled by tech oligarchs and an inundation of propaganda from many sources,” Maron wrote at the time. “Well, it’s fully percolated and pouring into the minds of all of us. It is shameless and proud. Culturally, the combination of blatant racist fear mongering and the anti-woke movement has delivered their message for the future. A future that marginalizes almost all voices.”
He continued that the “anti-woke flank of the new fascism” is being “driven almost exclusively by comics, my peers. Whether or not they are self-serving or true believers in the new fascism is unimportant. They are of the movement. Whether they see themselves as acolytes or just comics doesn’t matter. Whether they are driven by the idea that what they are fighting for is a free speech issue or whether they are truly morally bankrupt racists doesn’t matter. They are part of the public face of a fascist political movement that seeks to destroy the democratic idea.”
