yes, Bill is a moron because he is basically sounding like a religious right win nut, only he does it from the opposite end of the spectrum and claims to be sane and knowledgeable, please. And idiots like you who blindly follow these kinds of guys are whats wrong with America. Celebrities are supposed to tell us how to believe and act, fuck that. Maher is just as nutty as the right wing religious morons are. Hypocrisy, this country is so fucking full of it.
Bill has some good and some bad ideas in general, but this "pro-Eastern medicine" fad is one of the dumbest crazes, and it's sad to see someone so smart swept up with it. You know why all those medicines have that laundry list of potential side effects?, because if ONE patient in a study shows that symptom, it goes on the list for insurance purposes. But hey, Bill needs to placate his college-hipster demographic, and this is certainly something people who think they know everything fall for.

This spineless human arthropod attempts to sting and bite his victims with blase' elitist banter, gives one pause to chuckle. Poor wittle Bill... sad wittle man...
@Iamghostwriter1 "Wittle"--funny! Bill Maher is a comic with a particular gift for effective sarcasm & a particular contempt for our national silliness & superstition--& there certainly is plenty of that in our society, yes? "Spineless"--come on. Maher is one of the few media people who take on religious silliness in a meaningful & pointed way. So many people are afraid to. "Sting and bite"--Please. Religious people feel hurt when their beliefs are not cherished by other people.
@Ghanjamon I'm sure you learn a ton of shit when you GET the presidency. All of the candidates break promises when they get into office, I'm sure its a shitton of information they receive that offsets their campaign promises.
@Ghanjamon I mostly agree. However, there are two things about which he is unequivocably wrong: He has very odd beliefs concerning medicine and vaccination in particular. He also is very dismissive of the right of victims' families to have a -real- investigation into the events of 9/11 in response to the evidence not fitting the official story. He won't even give them a chance to speak and is terribly and wrongly closed minded on the issue, and lumps them in with conspiracy theorists.
@SinceretheGhost I think he is afraid of being marginalized by supporting the inquiries of the families and workers of 9/11 who see clearly that the official story is bunk. Either that or he doesn't understand that wanting a new investigation, quite rightly, does not mean you think Jews did it, or Bush did it, or any of the various theories out there. These people simply want to know WHAT happened. They almost never put forward their own theories, they simply ask questions.
Bill made some great points about the poison the pharmaceutical companies are peddling----Lots of americans are being poisoned by LEGAL Pharmaceutical drugs,drugs with side effects that SHOULD make them illegal---If we had an FDA that wasnt completely owned by the very co's (Both Big Agra and Big Pharma) that they're supposed to be regulating!.
Maher will never be elected in this country because the majority of the fear mongering religious right will never vote for him because he promotes true separation of church and state and what most Christians in this country really want is a limited democracy.
Zionist. LOL I laugh at that. He is a huge supporter of Israel but he supports them for all the right reason, unlike the Conservatives and the Tea Party.
@Ghanjamon I am all for Bill Maher, but he is not smart enough for the US precidency. If you like him, you would vote for him, but he would have a hard time reaching the republican base, the christian base, the traditionalists, the working class, military personel etc. . Bush won, like Bill Maher coined it, "because he is a type, everybody would feel comfortable, having a beer with", Obama because he has been very careful not to alienate any of the above.
@Ghanjamon I would love Bill to be President but it would be tough for him because the Tea Party would demand his Birth Certificate because they dont know New Jersey is a state.
@Ghanjamon The real problem is that no sane human being would WANT that job...lol. I guarantee Bill wouldn't. It seems like about 98% of it is just taking shit, nonstop, from all sides, whether you deserve it or have absolutely nothing to do with it. Obama just got OBL, the boogey who haunted our country for a decade, and he got a modest bump that everybody says will evaporate because gas prices are high. You can't win.
@zephranna01 Maher? Smart? This guy once said communism was a religion. He neither smart nor funny. But I agree on Letterman being lovable and stupid.
No, Bill, Mucinex is just guafenesin which thins mucus so it can flow out of your body better and not clog up and stagnate in your lungs or sinuses. And nasonex just is an anti inflammatory to shrink nasal tissue that swells from allergies. 2 bad examples to prove your point
Well, I got huge respect for Bill Maher's view, and knowledge of religion but he's anti-medicine and anti-vaccine. That is a lot of crazy right there.

@slask25 I really don't understand his anti-vaccine stance considering that Maher is a proponent of science and we basically have every scientist behind vaccination.

And ultimately, when Bill doesn't cite facts and scientific studies, it just paints him as delusional. Besides, there's nothing wrong with the flu shots. It's ineffective probably, because the strain changes from time to time, but it's not dangerous.
@Einz2 No they are not. I know because I'm a scientist and have read the research. Most of the anti-vaccine studies are poorly done, and even the most infamous paper of them all (the vaccine=autism) paper was retracted because it falsified data. Before you start on the ingredients, you need to pay attention to the AMOUNT of those ingredients. The minuscule amounts used in vaccines are physiologically irrelevant, and your body produces more toxic substances naturally than any of these vaccines.
@ender003@ender003 They're not there on purpose. Vaccines are obviously very well purified, but traces are always going to be found. If you avoided everything just because of trace amounts of contaminants, then you'd be screwed (i.e. potato chips have carcinogens in them). But my point was the trace amounts of contaminants are too low to cause anything bad to the human body.
@fintanio actually it is controled doses of poison and some things only supress symptoms and cause of illness is hapily continuing to ruin your body and also if you take pills for something that can be fixed by good night sleep then you are damaging yourself
@praetorian2150 You left out a few things! Don't go to a public school, don't use hospitals, don't use the interstate system, and make sure you dont consume anything approved by the FDA. Cuz you know, all those "socialist" programs are destroying America!
And dont get me wrong, Im not saying evolution isnt a reality, its clear life adapts and evolves, because it is designed to, its meant to evolve on its own! Things dont just happen by total random chance, my arent we lucky then that we made it this far! I mean totally by accident, 21st century human civilization exists in the universe...when it easily couldve went the other way and have no life at all. Thats a crock. Life is MEANT to exist, the universe is DESIGNED to produce life that evolves.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Gotta love the atheist Bill talk about the body like it was intelligent "the body is creating a river to get rid of the toxins" well why does that happen, Bill? Could it be its made to do that? Just like your body is made to shiver when your cold to generate heat, or sweat to cool your body off when youre too hot? This is all some random purposeless product of chance, right Bill? No its not a design, it evolved that way, on its own...somehow, some way, it did lol I mean CLEARLY its a design!
@FightingForFreedom23 ...CLEARLY it seems like a design, but we're smarter than that Bronze-Age myth now. There is enough evidence that other memburs of the genus homo did not have many of the bodily defenses we have thousands of years later. Please research a bit closer...
@Bagelbutcher Saying "i swear to god" is a figure of speech it doesn't mean you are religious. I say "jesus fucking christ" when something goes wrong, does this mean that i think jesus is my lord and saviour? of course not, im not a fucking idiot
@Bagelbutcher "Swear to God" is more of a common phrase that just means "Honestly". Has nothing to do with the man in the sky. Just like non-christians celebrate christmas.
@schadenfreudelolz22 actually it all began as a winter solstace event in a pagan religion.. the "christ" people kind of butted their way in during their crusade for world domination. :)
@jennamarisco lol, yes, I'm aware christ people hijacked everybody else's religion and claimed it all as their own. All I've been (trying) to say is that today, to most people in North America, Christmas is seen as a christian day that atheists still enjoy. I'm having trouble getting that through to LiBlub1 though :(
The point is that western medicine isn't concerned about cures, it's concerned about treating the symptoms. And that's because of the 'wonderful' profit motive. It's more profitable to continuously treat symptoms than it is to try your best to cure the illness. Profit is a higher concern than people's health in this system. Everything is run like a business. And if you don't know by now, business is ruthless and has no regard for who it might affect.
In Canada, they cannot tell you in advertisements what prescription drugs are for. The Cialis and birth control commercials are rather entertaining. But yeah... it's insane how they advertise drugs in the States though.
i like bill maher in general, but he is very, very very wrong about ethanol and western medicine.
true, if you make it from corn, it doesn't work, but making fuel from food is long gone, we have way better stuff for that now, like alge and every kind of organical waste. and yes, western medicine is relatively slow in developing new things that we actually use compared to other fields of science. and it's way to commercialized in the us. but it works damn fine here in the civilized world.
It's too space intensive and there are way better alternatives.
Secondly, western medicine is quick to try and reduce symptoms but not the CAUSE of the disease. I'm not saying this is always the case but it often is.
it's not space intensive, because you wouldn't have to grow anything for it. and even if it would be, there is loads more agricultural space on this planet if we work together and forget about the opec for a second.
what way better alternatives do you have in mind? i dare you to say hydrogen or electricity:P and keep in mind that the tech for ethanol is already available and inplementable on todays cars and infrastructure.
@rasmAn2 What about butanol? Its better for the environment, easier to produce, has a better energy density, and wouldnt be that hard to manufacture to run in cars.
Im not saying that western medicine is bad, and I dont think Bill Maher was either. But there are definitely pitfalls, just as there are in "homeopathic" and eastern medicines. Lets not pretend that western medicine is perfect.
butanol is also made from biomass, so the agrocultural impact would be the same. however ethanol can also be made from cellulose, butanol can't, so in that way it's worse. it also has a way lower octane, so ethanol can run at higher compression ratios, making the engine more efficient.
yes, it's emisions are better when mixed with petrol, but ethanol can run very well when it's less refined, ea: with a lot of water still in it, making it's octane even higher.
@AsSomedayItMayHappen however, i'm glad to see your'e not blindly following the new-californian-let's-go-electric-hippie-crowd and instead come up with a reasonable alternative, but keep on doing research and be sceptical!
on medice: no it's not perfect, but it's a damn side better than faith-healing and other "cures"that have no evidence whatsoever backing them up. and i know what bill maher actually means is that if you are 40 kg overweight and never walk your not healthy, but still
@rasmAn2 I'll get back to you on butanol, and maybe I'll leave you a pm, because its too complicated to get into here.
As for medicine, I agree with you completely. Faith-healing, and a lot of these b.s. self-cures are so bogus and dont work. But yeah, prevention at the source I think is something often ignored, and doctors are way too quick to prescribe medications.
@rasmAn2 Okay. My friend is an expert on this and we spent some time discussing it in depth.
Firstly, butanol doesnt need to be refined since it is immiscible in water. And thats one obvious advantage.
Secondly, the octane rating is lower than ethanol, but its still fairly on par with gasoline. And the energy density is about 50% higher so, and neither of us is sure how you can argue against that in terms of agricultural impact.
i myself happen to work as a researcher on these matters, and have spend the last 1,5 years on developing new ethanol blends (sadly my grand was only for ethanol, since it was in a larger study together with other uni's to make a true well to wheel plan of producing said fuel). the results should be publised in a year or so, and i'm not really alowed to go into details here.
point is, why search for something on par with petrol? why not for something better?
@rasmAn2 Furthermore, genetic engineering HAS made it possible for butanol to be made from cellulose and that makes it a very good alternative candidate.
Bill I like your show, but your views in health are almost equally stupid as creationism. To think that a medicine shouldn`t have side-effect to some people is just fucking crazy. Every body is different, so to make a drug that is not harmful for anybody is just impossible.

Most of the anti-vaccine studies are poorly done, and even the most infamous paper of them all (the vaccine=autism) paper was retracted because it falsified data. Before you start on the ingredients, you need to pay attention to the AMOUNT of those ingredients. The minuscule amounts used in vaccines are physiologically irrelevant, and your body produces more toxic substances naturally than any of these vaccines.

@Kuriku24 If they're physiologically irrelevant, then why are they there?
ender003 11 months ago
@ender003 @ender003 They're not there on purpose. Vaccines are obviously very well purified, but traces are always going to be found. If you avoided everything just because of trace amounts of contaminants, then you'd be screwed (i.e. potato chips have carcinogens in them). But my point was the trace amounts of contaminants are too low to cause anything bad to the human body.

And dont get me wrong, Im not saying evolution isnt a reality, its clear life adapts and evolves, because it is designed to, its meant to evolve on its own! Things dont just happen by total random chance, my arent we lucky then that we made it this far! I mean totally by accident, 21st century human civilization exists in the universe...when it easily couldve went the other way and have no life at all. Thats a crock. Life is MEANT to exist, the universe is DESIGNED to produce life that evolves.

Gotta love the atheist Bill talk about the body like it was intelligent "the body is creating a river to get rid of the toxins" well why does that happen, Bill? Could it be its made to do that? Just like your body is made to shiver when your cold to generate heat, or sweat to cool your body off when youre too hot? This is all some random purposeless product of chance, right Bill? No its not a design, it evolved that way, on its own...somehow, some way, it did lol I mean CLEARLY its a design!

@FightingForFreedom23 ...CLEARLY it seems like a design, but we're smarter than that Bronze-Age myth now. There is enough evidence that other memburs of the genus homo did not have many of the bodily defenses we have thousands of years later. Please research a bit closer...

@Bagelbutcher Saying "i swear to god" is a figure of speech it doesn't mean you are religious. I say "jesus fucking christ" when something goes wrong, does this mean that i think jesus is my lord and saviour? of course not, im not a fucking idiot

@Bagelbutcher "Swear to God" is more of a common phrase that just means "Honestly". Has nothing to do with the man in the sky. Just like non-christians celebrate christmas.

@jennamarisco lol, yes, I'm aware christ people hijacked everybody else's religion and claimed it all as their own.

I'm having trouble getting that through to LiBlub1 though :(
schadenfreudelolz22 1 year ago
The point is that western medicine isn't concerned about cures, it's concerned about treating the symptoms. And that's because of the 'wonderful' profit motive. It's more profitable to continuously treat symptoms than it is to try your best to cure the illness. Profit is a higher concern than people's health in this system. Everything is run like a business. And if you don't know by now, business is ruthless and has no regard for who it might affect.

i like bill maher in general, but he is very, very very wrong about ethanol and western medicine.
true, if you make it from corn, it doesn't work, but making fuel from food is long gone, we have way better stuff for that now, like alge and every kind of organical waste. and yes, western medicine is relatively slow in developing new things that we actually use compared to other fields of science. and it's way to commercialized in the us. but it works damn fine here in the civilized world.

@rasmAn2 He's right about ethanol, and hes right about some of the things he said about western medicine.
AsSomedayItMayHappen 1 year ago
@AsSomedayItMayHappen
and your reasoning behind that statement is?
rasmAn2 1 year ago
@rasmAn2
It's too space intensive and there are way better alternatives.
Secondly, western medicine is quick to try and reduce symptoms but not the CAUSE of the disease. I'm not saying this is always the case but it often is.
AsSomedayItMayHappen 1 year ago
@AsSomedayItMayHappen
it's not space intensive, because you wouldn't have to grow anything for it. and even if it would be, there is loads more agricultural space on this planet if we work together and forget about the opec for a second.
what way better alternatives do you have in mind? i dare you to say hydrogen or electricity:P and keep in mind that the tech for ethanol is already available and inplementable on todays cars and infrastructure.
and on medicine, sort of right.
rasmAn2 1 year ago
@rasmAn2 What about butanol? Its better for the environment, easier to produce, has a better energy density, and wouldnt be that hard to manufacture to run in cars.
Im not saying that western medicine is bad, and I dont think Bill Maher was either. But there are definitely pitfalls, just as there are in "homeopathic" and eastern medicines. Lets not pretend that western medicine is perfect.
AsSomedayItMayHappen 1 year ago
@AsSomedayItMayHappen
butanol is also made from biomass, so the agrocultural impact would be the same. however ethanol can also be made from cellulose, butanol can't, so in that way it's worse. it also has a way lower octane, so ethanol can run at higher compression ratios, making the engine more efficient.
yes, it's emisions are better when mixed with petrol, but ethanol can run very well when it's less refined, ea: with a lot of water still in it, making it's octane even higher.
rasmAn2 1 year ago
@AsSomedayItMayHappen however, i'm glad to see your'e not blindly following the new-californian-let's-go-electric-hippie-crowd and instead come up with a reasonable alternative, but keep on doing research and be sceptical!
on medice: no it's not perfect, but it's a damn side better than faith-healing and other "cures"that have no evidence whatsoever backing them up. and i know what bill maher actually means is that if you are 40 kg overweight and never walk your not healthy, but still
rasmAn2 1 year ago
@rasmAn2 I'll get back to you on butanol, and maybe I'll leave you a pm, because its too complicated to get into here.
As for medicine, I agree with you completely. Faith-healing, and a lot of these b.s. self-cures are so bogus and dont work. But yeah, prevention at the source I think is something often ignored, and doctors are way too quick to prescribe medications.
AsSomedayItMayHappen 1 year ago
@rasmAn2 Okay. My friend is an expert on this and we spent some time discussing it in depth.
Firstly, butanol doesnt need to be refined since it is immiscible in water. And thats one obvious advantage.
Secondly, the octane rating is lower than ethanol, but its still fairly on par with gasoline. And the energy density is about 50% higher so, and neither of us is sure how you can argue against that in terms of agricultural impact.
AsSomedayItMayHappen 1 year ago
@AsSomedayItMayHappen
i myself happen to work as a researcher on these matters, and have spend the last 1,5 years on developing new ethanol blends (sadly my grand was only for ethanol, since it was in a larger study together with other uni's to make a true well to wheel plan of producing said fuel). the results should be publised in a year or so, and i'm not really alowed to go into details here.
point is, why search for something on par with petrol? why not for something better?
rasmAn2 1 year ago
@rasmAn2 On par in terms of octane rating, far superior in every other way.
AsSomedayItMayHappen 1 year ago
@rasmAn2 Furthermore, genetic engineering HAS made it possible for butanol to be made from cellulose and that makes it a very good alternative candidate.
