Bill Maher vs. the Eucharist
BILL MAHER WANTS A BRAWL
On the January 4 edition of the NBC show “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” Bill Maher commented on a remark about religion that was allegedly made by presidential contender Mitt Romney. In the course of his comments, Maher said the following:
“You can’t be a rational person six days of the week and put on a suit and make rational decisions and go to work and, on one day of the week, go to a building and think you’re drinking the blood of a 2,000-year-old space god. That doesn’t make you a person of faith…That makes you a schizophrenic.”

I'm glad to hear that Bill Donohue is commenting on this. Anyone who talks about the Eucharist like this should be very careful -- he's just asking for it. Our God is a awesome God, but He is also a God of justice. It reminds me of a song I used to sing, "Humble thyself in the sight of the Lord" or He might just do it for you. Yes, I think humility and reverence are very needed virtues to ask the Lord to bestow on Mr. Maher, although I'm sure He's way ahead of us in dealing with this character.
