bill o'reilly had our friend david silverman on his program the other day
in the content of the context was
let's talk about whether christmas day being a federal holiday is essentially
an establishment of religion by the government
and as such of violation of the constitution now this is really weird
i'm gonna play this for you
and i want to tell you david silverman will be on with us the day after
tomorrow on the wednesday show to talk about this and i have a lot of questions
for david silverman
bill o'reilly took the argument
christianity is not a religion now there's a lot of ways bill o'reilly
could've argued this point that i don't know if he got tripped up or if this was
his plan going and i think david silverman did very well david soul and
of course president of american atheists
but bill o'reilly ends up arguing that it's okay to have christmas day is a
federal holiday
because christmas is a full lots of christianity is a philosophy
rather than a religion of very weird arguments make here's the video that's
going by role right now
this is a good religion this is a battle is not the government can say this is an
issue so that he has a fact
that christianity is not
a religion it is a full-on cific if he did not realize you were saying that the
methodist religion hacker alright deserves a special place in the public
square i would be on your side so you're gonna actually tell me on live
television and christiane and he is not a religious correct beautiful i live in
a fundamentally disagree on that or wrong about fine you can comment on
rolling their illnesses in the is a religion a little use of the size of the
energy they are sets of christianity and you know what
it's really not call for you to try and do not allow the it's not fulfill cloud
this issue decided there's there's the clip it will talk to david silverman
about this on wednesday this is just so funny because when you look at the
reaction
from theology professors and pastors and so on and so forth
nobody would even think that this idea of questioning whether christianity is a
religion is even valid addy every priests
every pastor every sunday school teacher choir member deacon archer
p_o_ sitter
will say
christianity is a religion and you may be baptist really need that methodist a
catholic but those are those are parts of christianity
yeah i don't know what bills trying to do here really doubt he actually
believes this if he does some of the does look like it a step further shocked
since when do we give federal holidays for full lots of things
right it's not only that it makes no sense
angelina and you know on that same
you know a lot of thinking that he did not mention was initially the forum
yep are a concept
paper maybe even just uh... place lasagna
uh... the day that that uh... they patrick who is not a program
that's exactly right this is merely a a uh... it's it's uh... it's an idea and
that's really all it is that right it's not a television shows loosen asian
you're having if christianity is in a religion though then we should be taxing
churches right because for loss of these aren't exempt
from paying taxes
i think uh... that would be a good argument for
missus silverman to make okay sir david silverman will be on the show wednesday
to talk about this now the last one of the previous time david silverman was on
he said you know what
bill o'reilly plays this character
where he's this at the christian guy even though it's not a religion
and uh... blah blah blah he pretends this atheism stuff is nonsense but once
the camera stock is a different guy he's calm he's nuanced he knows about all
this all of these atheist teachings and so on and so forth uh... but if if the
character i'd wonder what david silverman will tell us happened as soon
as the cameras were cut i'm very curious right back till like a lot of people a
lot of uh... television and radio personalities
adopt that i mean i i i think went back to their will be one of those people
regionally ho chi minh who he's playing with his own your own personal right
yeah next i'll be having carl robot to play with excrement
bd
can you guys and that is that the next step on going back there for phil
species around him
unbelievable anyway
david so it was really good every time he's on the show some looking forward to
it
me too
well with uh... trying to recover from without laughing
