In his office at CBS-TV studios in Hollywood, Bill Maher is busy being Bill Maher. “You’ll never get rid of Christianity in this country because it will reinvent itself, as it always has. Every generation does a Superman movie, every generation does Hamlet, and they do it in a new and different way. Because that’s what a myth is: a living, breathing, mutating thing. So that central bit of, ‘There was a God, he had a son and he died for your sins’? I mean that’s just an entitlement programme that no one wants to give up! Why would you? ‘Oh, he died for my sins? That’s fantastic - why, of course I love him! So I can keep sinning now, because he died for me!’”Somewhere along the way, this half-Catholic, half-Jewish, wholly non-observant stand-up comedian has turned into one of the most visible, vocal atheists in America. He is a ruder, less intellectual, far more foul-mouthed and much funnier teammate of Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins.

Why does Maher and other atheists feel the need to convince people not to believe in God. If you don’t believe then don’t worry about it? Why do these atheists feel it is their mission in life to convince everyone that there is no God? If that is how you feel just go enjoy life.What do you think?Copyright © 2009 Confessions of a Recovering Pharisee. This Feed is for personal non-commercial use only.
