Good on Bill Maher for doing the right thing and apologising.

FTA, Bill Donahue says
"After all, there are plenty of factually accurate things Maher could say about other groups that would insult its members, but he chooses not to go there. Perhaps he can add Catholics and the Catholic Church to that protected list as well,"

What groups are on Maher's "protected list"?

It would be nice if he's apologize to the faithful for calling the faithful that believe in Jeus' presence in the Eucharist 'schizophrenic' but whatever.Not going to push it. Glad the guy decided to apologize for whatever reason.

What on earth is wrong with ppl? Honestly... how can you not love the pope?

You don't have to be Catholic to see this man is a good man.

These ppl who take such issue with him.. they are anti-Christs.
I don't know what's wrong. I really like the Dali Lami. Even if I don't believe whatever, a good man/woman is exactly that. Good and I can at least respect that.

-Peace-

Are you kidding? Lots of people can't stand the Pope because he stands for moral absolutes (and idea that isn't too popular in today's society), and they will do whatever they feel they need to do to discredit him and tear him down.

Bill Maher to Apologize for Calling Pope a Nazi


HBO comedian Bill Maher is planning to apologize Friday night for accusing Pope Benedict XVI of being a Nazi, an HBO representative confirmed for FOXNews.com.
Maher reportedly will not apologize for calling Catholicism a “child-abusing religious cult," but HBO could not confirm this for FOXNews.com.

In a letter to HBO President Sue Naegle, a group of politicians complained that Maher "crossed the line of decency."

Maher, host of "Real Time With Bill Maher," has come under attack from Catholics since going on a rant April 11 about Pope Benedict XVI's visit.

Maher's an idiot. Who cares what he says or apologizes for?
"After all, there are plenty of factually accurate things Maher could say about other groups that would insult its members, but he chooses not to go there.

I have listened to him making his anti-Catholic remarks for years so it would be ridicules to believe he means his apology, period. He always uses the disclaimer of the fact he was raised Catholic before launching into his insults.

As for the other groups, I think it would be a breath of fresh air if someone shed some light on the anti-Christian sentiment, vandalism, and violence that occurs daily by Muslims and Jews in the Middle East.

Bill Maher and George Carlin were raised Catholic before they became fundamentalist atheists.
One thing is to wake up in the moning and decide that you no longer believe in God. And that are many things wrong with religion.
The other thing is to insult religion and religious people every single minute of your days even crossing the barrier into slander. That is what Mr Maher and Carlin are doing. Carlin is no longer funny because of that and Maher never was. It take sad little men to laugth at unfunny jokes by sad little comendias.

I agree concerning Carlin. He is no longer funny. He just comes across as extremely bitter.
