Clever rant - reminds me I need to watch him more often. He nails ideas so beautifully. With this piece he is off a bit in terms of accuracy. My understanding is that Jesus was rather profeminist and treated women better than was the custom in those days. His New Testament teachings were more about love and kindness to all. It is the Old Testament (God) that has all the commandments and many rules as per orthodox Judaism, not Jesus. > > http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/17/bill-maher-michele-bachmann-sarah-palin_n_900994.html > > >
