Hussein Ibish and Bill O'Reilly debate the ADL

[armelix73]

From "Jesus the Saviour" to "Jesus the Philosopher"!? Did I hear right!? Is Jesus considered as a mere philosopher by O'Reilly!? What´s the buzz then!?

[TheBiotchify]

"We are founded on Judeo-Christian traditions"? I do not recall any of our founding fathers being Jewish or any mention of Judaism. "Judeo-Christian" religion is an oxymoron.

[CoQ10z]

I heard they want to call Easter eggs, Spring spheres.

Ridiculous.

[FendLOTRO]

why blow up the twin towers when they could have blown up the ADL offices... *Bad taste... yea prolley, but still true*

[zrah1092]

This is ridiculous people have the right to practice their religion and religious people should be given recognition. Don't you FOX NEWS watching sheep know: That the New World Order wants to get rid of religion and thats why they don't want other religious symbols because they want to bombard your psyche with their New Age Religion symbolism?

[PeterHebert123]

The idiots at the ADL and ACLU will work to pull the commandments out of the schools along with all vestiges of religious symbols, yet will force the gay agenda onto impressionable children in the public schools.

[kyuss4me]

Arguments like this just show how the whole world is going crazy. This kind of crap shown on what is supposed to be news just keeps the sheeples minds occupied so they don't question what the real problems are that are going on in the world today.

[NewYorkCityUSA7]

Just leave religion out of schools.  If you want your kids to be taught religion then teach them yourselves. You don't have to drag other kids into it.

[daywalker48603]

Wow! Did I just hear O'Reilly describe Jesus as a philosopher?! TWICE?!!! Christians are ok with this? Even the ADL rep found it offensive to denegrate a religious symbol to secular status.

[Straylight100]

@daywalker48603 No, the ADL guy found it offensive to make any mention of Jesus, because Jews hate and despise Christianity.

Watch how Jesus is portrayed on Israeli TV /watch?v=JA6vRC1xW_c

Listen to Jews in Israel say how "We killed Jesus and we're proud of it" /watch?v=DvnrBU4vaGY

Jews have no respect for Christianity, they only want to manipulate people into supporting their criminal apartheid regime in Israel.

[LiarsNightmare]

There is NO SUCH THING as "Judeo-Christian". The two are NOT COMPATIBLE. Jews have expressed their desire to destroy Christianity repeatedly. It is the AGENDA! Enter the Talmud: "Jews must destroy the books of the Christians, especially the New Testament." (Shabbath 116a).

[constructivereconcil]

@LiarsNightmare

"There is NO SUCH THING as "Judeo-Christian". The two are NOT COMPATIBLE. Jews"

Idiot, all of if the Christian prophets are Hebrew. Christ was Jewish. The only incompatible Christians are the heretics influenced by Paganism (Roman Catholic Church, particularly before the printing press empowered the masses).

[constructivereconcil]

@LiarsNightmare "Jews have expressed their desire to destroy Christianity repeatedly."

Which "Jews are speaking for the whole of them now? Fucking crazy Nazi bastard. I wonder if the gutless editor will publish my comments. Pussy.

[LiarsNightmare]

Herzl wrote that Zionism offered the world a welcome “final solution of the Jewish question.” In his “Diaries”, page 19, Herzl stated “Anti-Semites will become our surest friends, anti-Semitic countries our allies.”

GO. FUCK. YOUR. SELF.

[BornToDie90]

@LiarsNightmare thank you for your comments on the evil Herzl... the father of Zionism clearly stated that zionists must promote anti-semitism to achieve their goals opening a serious question on the zionist role in the Holocaust.... yet so few know this fact/strategy...

[Keinlicht]

"A jewish advocacy group" that is one hell of a euphamism!

[constructivereconcil]

@Keinlicht Great progress on the spelling (kudos to Microsoft I guess), now add some reasoning classes and you'll be ready to start your politics 800 class surely within the next few years.

[knowwaie]

This is so annoying. I'm even annoyed by Bill. The constitution says "congress" (not the church) shall make no "law" (not promotion) respecting or prohibiting. There has been no 'law' passed by congress saying these symbols 'must' be presented. In reality the president could put a 12 story statue of Jesus on the white house lawn and it is not unconstitutional.

[knowwaie]

But there is no law that says these symbols should be show, thus it was never unconstitutional. It's actually the people who are trying to make laws against it that are in opposition to the constitutional law.

[shiloh4378]

Those of you who are defining tens of millions of people by one person's opinion... are spiteful and deluded .

Stop finding hateful excuses. There are over 6.5 billion in this world. We all would be better off if we simply practiced good will and defended the right to live a free life.

[superhamzah85]

If Bill O Reilly woke up one day - became an atheist.

Boy would he kick ass, his Jesusisms though retard him.

[superhamzah85]

John Adams "this nation is not in any way, founded upon the Christian religion"

[bashie34]

adl claims to fight racist , bigotry towards Jews and others around the globe . it says it on its website.So why do they support the apartheid and racist war mongers known as Israhell? You fight for the freedoms of others around the globe but yet you want us to fund an apartheid racist regime that is using Nazi tactics to control its neighbors to the point of killing at will. Sorry israhell I don't buy what you are selling and adl you are just another Jew made up company too bankrupt America .

[forestskog]

@bashie34 The ADL is fighting racism like Burger King is fighting obesity.

[D0CKTORDEATH]

ADL = EVIL

[alexsheene]

the philosopher jesus, if he is one he's the fucking shittest philosopher yet.

[ammarios]

HAHAHHA... wow that was funny.. Bill O'Reilly actually said "this is a no-spin zone".. is he kidding?? he must be.. he's the king of story-spinning..actually, no , the 'queen'..since he stamps his feet and shouts over his opponents and threatens to cut their mikes when he doesn't get his way... ugh. he should thank his lucky stars for ratings, without which he would not be on tv

[1THETRUTH10]

The ADL are a fucking joke!!! This guy cant even verbalise his thoughts,because he KNOWS he's wrong, He KNOWS he's a Zionist bully!! Well fuck the bullys cutting peoples foreskins off.......what did your GOD not make them perfect or are you just a bit sick!

[biggiddy12]

is jesus the son of god or a "philosopher"? way to spin it billo

[nickorization]

The philosopher Jesus? are you kidding me O'reilly? The mere existence of Jesus is questionable to religious debate.

So to celebrate his birthday would be a religious act, calling him a philosopher just averts the truth, just like you always do billy.

[mrnoobxd]

@nickorization Jesus' existence is hardly debated. Even atheists such as Charles Darwin acknowledge his existence and his status as a moral philosopher. Whether you like it or not, Jesus was one of many who set the standard for modern day ethics. Many of his rules of ethical conduct are sensible and logical. Why would you get rid of Christmas? That's absurd. Why not get rid of Thanksgiving as well then? If you know any history then you should know Thanksgiving comes from Christian origin.

[mrnoobxd]

@nickorization Furthermore, using your own logic, why not get rid of Halloween? Christians hate Halloween because of its Celtic origin, but Halloween is politically correct despite its religious background. Showing the Nativity scene is a matter of keeping true to historical facts, and if historical facts point to Christianity, then by all means we must disregard this "political correctness." If you want to be "politically correct," then don't insult Christians by perverting Christmas.

[iodon]

@mrnoobxd

Some points you made are valid, as holidays should not be forbidden whatsoever,

however the life of Jezus is in fact debated alot these days, and now is what we should focus on. We have found many ways to seperate true and false history from eachother long after Darwin. Besides, it would have been suicide to claim Jezus hasn't existed in those days.

Besides that one more thing, Thanksgiving was indeed founded by christians, this does however not make it a christion holiday. Thanks.

[ATMleb]

If you go to israel during Hannuka they will greet you: happy Hannuka

If you go to Saudi Arabia during Ramadan they will greet you: Happy Ramadan

In the US during christimas you hear: Happy Holidays!!!!!!!

[mayabelldotcom]

After 18 years of brainwashing kids with atheism & socialism in public schools, what you will have is an atheist ignorant person who is not capable of making his mind up at all because he knows little about religions of the world. Ancient religions are religions too & are being taught in public schools, & most of them are evil pagan religions of Babylon, Egypt & Rome; that believed in human & child sacrifice & statues of those religions are all over government's buildings; that's disgusting.

[TheVoid]

maya...education about religion is not a bad thing at all i agree but it should be taught in the RE class not science and not preached. But, your brainwashing arguement is pretty hypocritical after the thousands of years of indoctrination that religion has done. You don;t get brainwashed atheists flying planes into buildings or blowing themselves up on tubes...Now in terms of paganism...well christianity has many similarities..take the christmas tree for example....

[mayabelldotcom]

wow how far they are going. amazing. and people just allow to be stamped over.

[GasconyKid]

I don't understand why some people have a problem with the public display of religion, especially Christmas and other holy days. Even more disturbing, however, are the restraints being placed on the discussion of religion in public, especially the Catholic Faith, which alone is true. If this offends certain people, have them plug their ears; no one is compelling them, but to silence the Church, the Immaculate Spouse of Christ, outside of which there is no salvation, is completely unacceptable.

[valleart]

christmas = christ mass... a catholic invention and most catholic and christian ideas are based on myths and fables such as the birth of Christ being on dec 25... and you still don't understand? It is called perpetuating a lie. If truth must be protected by a lie, than it is not truth.

[mayabelldotcom]

@GasconyKid it is all or nothing and who said corporate logos are not religion. go watch videos about the religious symbolisms of corporate logos.

[placidruckus]

the defamation of christmas began when the pine tree was adapted from german pagans into christian traditions and with december 25, essentially the winter solstice, becoming important.

[Far7anR]

christmas isnt a holiday praising the "philosopher jesus," but just a pagan holiday that was manipulated by those in power...so idk y o'reilly is so smug about christmas being a federal holiday...

[Blu3Lead3r]

@Far7anR so you rather not have a free holidays just because is may not be true?

go walk around a giant rock and yell allah akbar u bigot

[potshi]

O'Reilly is a racist idiot

[BeAnEarthNut]

lol figers i went to post a comment and it was filtered, i wonder if this will post

[BeAnEarthNut]

the topic is over holiday display's in schools, to me i would think that if one cant be displayed then i dont think Any should be displayed, no discrimination one over the other if there is among the local people of the area, then display nothing at all, let the local people who go to the school decide, in any choice, its all or nothing! :-)

[rross27]

I wonder if its possible that some Muslims decided to head west because they realized that they already had a western Banker/Corporate Puppet for a leader, and a McDonalds popping up on every other street corner? I like the fact that Muslims do not allow any usury because I think it should be outlawed worldwide. I can respect that they practice their religion daily. And most of all, they have a very warm and inviting hospitality. I dont want to be a Muslim but I certainly do not fear them.

[Belle19700]

Eustice Mullins said that the immigration of muslims, all over the world, is planned. The Jews are letting this happen. Then, wars start over religion, territory, culture. Everyone knows this is going to happen. We all kill each other, they blow away the Middle East, and wah lah, the Jews are left standing. It's genius.

[Prototalos]

shalom jesus was just a magician!

[iwillspyonyou]

ADL is the most racists organization in America.

[Ospree67]

What do we know about the Talmud???

[solpapisolmook]

The ADL killed a God-man???  What are you smoking??

[spentonmediocrity]

Lol,listen to the sophistry of Mr ADL.

That Jewish supremacists such as the ADL are granted reputable status by the media must scare the hell out of clear thinking and tolerant Jews.

If I were Jewish I'd wage war on these racial arsonists.

[solpapisolmook]

Since you're a Gentile, who do you wage war on? Or is the ADL the main poison of society...?

[kopitetommy]

I agree with O'Reilly, must say he comes across as articulate and intellectual here, his debating skills are shown to be at a high quality. The ADL strike me as a group who just blow up racism and anti-semitism in order to look like they actually have a purpose in their jobs but sadly that means all they are doing is looking for targets in order to justify their cause.

[TuWylde]

One of the first times i agree with Bill O ... he didnt just have stupid attacks he actually talked logically gj if only he did this more often :D ahah

[Reqrezentin]

I would just knock the Jew thing out. But again that would be a problem since New York is Tel Aviv in disguise.

[Yaalah]

O'reilly has no understanding of subtleties, any argument is foolish to employ them against him.

Christmas more to do with paganism than Christianity or its founder. Google "origin of christmas".

[pod4124158]

god this guy is very slow and i cant believe this but for the first time i agree with orielly!

[mikeyramone33]

jewish hate for christian religion and holidays sould be remembered when your tax dollars are sent to hate state of isreal.why are jews so offended by other peoples religion?

[coolmarc21]

We spend alot more money on the Arab countires around Israel

[Ameralsna3ys]

you didn't spend you got oil frome us so quit wineing

[oldjoe5]

Nope.

Israel get 1/3rd of all US foreign aid and Egypt gets 1/6th as part of a deal to play nice with Israel. Nobody else even close

[mikeyramone33]

jews and muslims sould live in their respectve countries of choice if they cant live in a chritian nation.go arligton nation cemetary or anyone like they are seas of crosses.judeism+intolerance+ha­te

[Reqrezentin]

Again, The US is not a Christian state...What a dumbass you are.

[Tylonous]

The only problem with Bill's argument is that this isn't a Christian nation, nor was it founded on it's principles. He also downplays the effect of just showing Christian idols too much. You either show one religion, or all of them, and there isn't room for all of them so you should show none of them.

[ejlister]

Your whole post is entirely incorrect. You don't know your history. Go back to school.

[tamriel462]

well technically it's secular but in reality america's one of the most rabidly christian countries on the face of the planet.

[SketchyBack]

haha the manger is the symbol of the "philosopher" jesus.

ya, let's have plato and socrates and kant birth scenes.

[aafaking]

LOL bill is so dumb

[Jmriccitelli]

I love Michael Salberg, what a tool!

[applePIRATEtoad]

heeyy now, I'm white and jewish. shuttup.

[FreeSpeechIsDead]

The ADL just hates Christians and especially white christians... doesn't the Israeli flag have a religious symbol on it (the star of david)? But that's ok, right! Jewish symbols = good, Christian symbols = bad! Celebrating jewishness = good, celebrating whiteness = really bad. Here's the motto for the new world order: Israel for jews... Africa for blacks... Asia for asians, but North america and Europe... well hell, that's for everyone. What hypocrisy!

[VvendettAa]

I didnt know I could actually agree with o'rielly... also Ibish is a family friend.

[AHMEDN]

Bill - good perfomance fair and just. mhell make a top judge on this one.

[AHMEDN]

good performance by o'reilly bless thjis guy on this one..he was fabulous and fair. Fair and educated response caught the dogger salberg who is talking real crap. a narrow minded fool

[Apocalypse487]

He finally made some sense. Bill you are a bitch but you were ok this time, only ok. My best friends are jewish and christians and im' muslim lol. people get surprise when they here that. They are like, aren't you all supposed to be killing each other?

[ProwlerOfShit]

That ADL representative got owned.

[Gutcheckcoming]

lol bill stuck it that adl idiot

[ibysid004]

Religion is freely excersible? ha ha ha don't make me laugh.

No it's not offensive am a muslim and i loved to see the manger scene in my school. i love christmas i celebrate it, so don't even say it's offensive to other faiths. This goes to all faiths i am happy to see all faiths celebrate thier holidays as a community.

[csacta]

O'Reilly - This is the first and only time I think you're absolutely right!!! KUDOS! It's true that anything is possible!!!

[1THETRUTH10]

@csacta I agree O'Rilly is a prat....but he's bang on here!

[OoReachingJannahoO]

this is a hard topic

cuz usa is a country where u can have the right 2 practice wat religion u choose but...

its hard 2 say when religion goes 2 far

like in this case decorations

[Hatchet666gitmo]

Mhm, dont know.

Maybe a little separation is good.

But not to much.

[Anticommunist22]

The ADL is a malignant, phony cult of calumniating spys and traitors.

[notthatbadtoday]

hussein ibish and your antics

silly husein ibish

silly

[MeltemiX]

You filthy idiot, I am a Christian and I have read the Qu'ran and nowhere is this supposed violence, you mental midget. Start reading for yourself, if in fact you can read, and make informed and educated decisions. But first you must learn the alphabet.

[ruffridah06]

Thank you MeltemiX

Good to finally see some one take the educated side and see that like all other religions.. Islam is not evil.

[NathanZackery]

Salberg doesn't come off at all well in this interview. Oddly enough, O'Reilly ends up agreeing with the Arab guy; who would have thought it could happen!

[antichristawakens]

if they want to take christian stuff down then take muslim stuff down too, but they dont take muslim stuff down then down take christian stuff down either. thats justice. america belongs to many christians they pay taxes, why are they not being given freedom to do what they want to. its not harming anyone. when they see this they feel happy, its something positive

Muslim Here!

[sostav]

did you notice the amount of evil in salberg's lieful pig-eyes? or did you notice that some certain group of people has started a full-frontal ideological war on Christianity and Christian religion?

[AbuMuawwiyah]

Hussein Ibish has struck me as a very good public speaker....I don't know how they get around this.....there is a fine line between 'promoting' a religion to discussing one in an educational context. I think Mr Salberg would like to run the US schools like the French model which is a real concern. What's wrong with a manora, nativity scence or crescent in a public school as long as it has an educational context?

[Anakrino]

It's not about the teaching of religious history in public school, but rather the right to teach religious history in public school. After all, I don't know too many Christians who want pro-choice, pro-homosexual agenda, amoral public school teachers to tell their kids about who Jesus is. It would be interesting if they knew what to say at all.

[Anakrino]

While it is apparent that those who tout the 1st Amendment and its related Establishment clause as it relates to promotion of the separation of Church and State, it is also apparent that the Free Exercise Clause of the same Amendment is commonly overlooked. What is ironic, though, is that the Christian community who fight for their rights as guaranteed under the constitution would obviously agree with secular progressives in that neither really want a public school teacher to teach religion.

[owchywawa]

PWNED!

[samir1475]

shut the hell up, it's been a 100 fucking years! There have been hundred of genocides over the years and you don't hear the genocide victimes great, great grand children crying about it so shut up!!

[TruthSeeker24]

Religion should be taugh in school as an elective like when I was in high school. It can also be taugh in history class like I was taugh. I believe in free expression. So, I have no problem with Christian, Jewish, or Muslim symbols in public schools. I'm not a hypocrite wanting certain religious expression restricted from the public square.

[chairde]

taught, not taugh

[masudrules]

Salberg speaks soooo slowly, it was so boring...

[atrzar]

teaching religion isnt so bad. i think schools, even public, should offer classes to study the historical impact of religion. even if two religions have different beliefs, they both are an aspect of the same world history, which merits being studied.

of course, we wouldnt want teachers saying 'lets bow our heads and pray'.

[chewbaca1989]

As Christians you are obliged to spread the Gospel of our lord, Jesus. ADL chew on that.

[Luxegr]

Im an athesist, and I belive that everybody should be free to belive whatever they want. But having a state-church is basically in effect indoctrinating people in that certain belief, and state and chrurch should be seperated because only that is "freedom".

[Iain1962]

Holiday comes from Holy Day, so seems a bit strange to ban religious symbols from a Holy Day.

I'm an athiest by the way but I believe people should have the right to their religious beliefs.

[AJdude123]

I'm Christian and I completely agree with you. How many children are influenced by a friggin' decorated tree or the word "Christmas" preceding "vacation?" That's what it is isn't it? We don't take Hanukkah off do we? It's not a "holiday" vacation. Even then, it's still religious. Holiday comes from "Holy Day" just as you said.
