Last week, U.S. Representative Keith Ellison, a devout Muslim, blew a gasket on HBO’s “Real Time” when host Bill Maher stated that the Koran demanded that Muslims despise non-believers. Maher backed up his statement by quoting from Sam Harris’s book “The End of Faith” which itself endlessly quotes the Koran’s passages which demand intolerance, death and damnation for all non-believers.
Ellison’s response was to sputter that Muslim fanatics are not inspired by the Koran to commit acts of violence but instead by “political teachings”.
Well, on hearing Ellison’s argument, Sam Harris begs to strongly differ with the Muslim Representative that the Koran doesn’t preach intolerance. Below is the link from Harris’s blog wherein he confronts head on the Koran’s “religious hatred (which) has become a problem for the entire world“.

In the aftermath of the House hearing on American Muslims, Representative Keith Ellison appeared on HBO’s Real Time to further testify to the benign nature of Islam. Attempting to bring some glint of reality to the conversation, Bill Maher posed the following question:
Have you read Sam Harris’s book, The End of Faith?… [Harris] says, “On almost every page, the Qur’an instructs observant Muslims to despise non-believers.”

I almost never agree with Bill Maher, but in this instance I must agree, I spent many hours reading the Koran and the history of Mohammad . This real and very disturbing at the same time. A Muslim is to lie to any and all to get on their good side, they the Muslims are to subdue, enslave, or kill any who will not become a Muslim. There is no middle of the road Muslim, you are Muslim or you will die at the hands of one. If you wish to disagree please read the history of Mohammad and his life. He was a butcher of anyone who opposed him. If you read the Koran carefully you will see that Muslims are to follow the Torah and Bible and believe in them. My something must have changed!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless America
Agree with your post. My question is why have muslims infiltrated the government of America? To me Ellison should never have been allowed on a ballot. Have read that there are many muslims working in our government. WHY????? I assume it is because we have a muslim in the WH!
What's wrong with Ellison? He's a good honest American citizen. He is the only Muslim in the Congress.There are at least 30 jews in the US Senate and 13 in the House. The Supreme Court has at least 3 jews out of 9! The fedral judgeships are loaded with jews. The jews control every word pretzeldink Obumer reads off his teleprompters. If you research it, you'll find about 78% of the US jews voted for Obumer.
Also his White House staff and advisers are mostly jews. Biden is an avowed zionist. Remember too, Obumer isn't even a US citizen, just a mouthpiece the jews control.
Russ, if you think the Koran is bad, you must check out the Talmud which is the jews holy book and what they go by. It's many volumes. They want to kill the Gentiles and Christians and steal from the rest. It's quite evident too, with what they are doing all over the world today

Russ, this is long after you posted a comment re: Bill Maher on the Koran. If you really think about Islam, it isn’t a religion (although there are those who consider it one of the 3 great religions of the world). Why, 600 years after Christ’s death, why would God, who NOBODY has ever seen, and in the Bible, spoke only 3 X, come to earth to babble to Mohammad about a religion totally antithetical to Judaism or Christianity and ‘write’ the Koran’ which speaks of nothing but evil, harm and has NOTHING to do with loving thy neighbor etc.? He would not!! Any more than God spoke to Joseph Smith in the 1800s about another new religion (Mormon) which started out in sin and polygamy etc. ..
The Koran is the plagiarized fabrication of the Bible – which he changed and corrupted to suit his needs/goal. (He, by the way, was poisoned by his wife, so sad, too bad). In 622, when the Islamists/Muslims came out of what was then the known world, they did so, swords in hand – raping, plundering, murdering everything and anything in sight. Taking great, glorious Christian Churches in Europe and converting them to mosques (St. Sohpia in Spain e.g.). They have one thing in mind and that is to Islamicize the West – and have overturned people’s lives in Europe. England, France, Holland, Finland are no longer what we read about in history. They are here in greater numbers than we realize, all friends of Obama’s and at his invitation. He sent 20 million dollars to the Palestinians (made up name, place) two years ago (long story) inviting them to American where ‘the US will help you financaily, with homes and jobs’. These, our sworn enemies.
Please know the Talmud is not the Jews’ holy book. Their ‘bible’ so-to-speak’ is the Torah.
The article you referenced was published/written in Russia in 1862. Millions and millions of Jews emigrated to Russia in the 1800s. These Russian jews are those behind socialism, Marxism……check out the names….all Zionist Jews…the evil segment.
And it was they who lived by the Talmud. It’s all very confusing as Zionist live today but could not use the Talmud, an evil book, today. Kind of like the Koran.
Russ, you have done your homework and you tell it like I know it is. Now we need to awaken the sleeping giant! God Bless The United States Of America.
More later, but for now, Birth Certificate!, COLB, Barry!
Even a Marxist like Maher gets it right once in a while. Maybe he doesn't like the Muslims because of their Fascist ties, and he much prefers the Communist philosophy. Either way, he did get it correct in spite of his ignorance of the real world, and a Constitutional, Moral America.
And remember Barack Hussein obama is a closet Muslim !!
Bill Maher only touched the tip of the iceberg. If you study the proof for God's Biblical authorship to that of the Koran, it is evident that an anti-God (Satan) wrote the Koran. Everything God loves and establishes is mocked or set for destruction by and in the Koran.
This is just another episode of "Multiculturalism" being shoved down our throats. Europe is about three years ahead of us in this stinky mess and England, France and Germany have admitted that it is not working. Nicholas Sarkozy, the French president, said of multiculturalism and its failure in Europe: "It's a failure. The truth is that, in all our democracies, we've been too concerned about the identity of the new arrivals and not enough about the identity of the country receiving them." So why do we keep bending over for illegal immigrants and Muslims who have no respect for American beliefs and traditions and want us to adapt to them? We need to know the truth about the Koran (Quran) and thank God that there are people who will stand up to the Muslims. Kudos to Bill Maher!
As a Christian man, I never thought I would see the day that I would agree with anything that Bill Maher said. He said the truth about Muslims and their Koran. The best part of Bill Maher and his non-believer status is that he doesn't want to kill us.
Is there no longer a price to pay for stumbling onto truth?
We don't want Muslims in our Government…….So throw Ellison and Obama OUT !!!!
Who is "we"? You want religious tests for your public officials? Maybe only Baptists, or only Quakers can serve?
ANYONE WHO FALLS FOR THE RHETORIC OF SATAN, THE AUTHOR OF ISLAM, IS A "USEFUL IDIOT" TO THEIR CAUSE! WITHOUT QUESTION MUSLIMS ARE ENCOURAGED TO LIE, (TO NON-MUSLIMS) IF THEIR LIES ARE TO FURTHER THE CAUSE OF ISLAM! THAT IN AND OF ITSELF SHOULD CLEARLY SHOW WHO THE "FATHER" OF ISLAM IS!
FATHER OF LIES! SATAN.
FATHER OF TRUTH THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND JACOB!
IT IS JUST THAT SIMPLE, AND CLEAR!
Bill Maher The Atheist Liberal Obamacare Goon Who Is The Next In Line For "The Lie Detector" Yikeess, Remember ACLU Is The Taliban Of American Liberal Secularism, Yikeess, I Think That Would Be The Same As Being A Commie, Maher. God Bless America And Sarah Palin.
While you're at it, check out the Talmud. Some interesting passages about Jesus and .
non – jews.
I live in Minnesota and I'm sick and tired of the Liberal Democrats and now, Muslim reprsentative Keith Ellison. His fake crying about a muslim killed in 911 was an affront to all Americans. He definately needs to be impeached along with Obammy boy and Holder. But all this illustrates how Minnesota is way over the top with it's liberal democrats that run and control everything in the state. I am leaving as soon as possible when I get all my things in order. I hate Minnesota!!! Also, anyone with a first grade education that reads the Koran will walk away feeling guilty because they have just read a master plan for genocide by and for muslims. Baby muslims are taught from birth to hate and plan to kill Christians and Jews. Send everyone of them back to afghan, pakistan, solmali, kenya etc etc. Leaves us Patrioctic Americans to worship the one and only true GOD.
