Does Fox News' Bill O'Reilly Want Government Religion?

In multiple clips, including one from September 25, 2007, I show Bill O'Reilly repeating his frequent falsehood that the ACLU is anti-religion. I then show the ACLU actually only opposes GOVERNMENT religion with DOZENS of examples from: http://www.ACLUFightsforChristians.com

Finally, I ask my viewers if they think Bill O'Reilly's frequent falsehood reveals something about his OWN position on government religion.

Don't you dare ever zoom in on Jerry Falwell's neck wattle again. I won't forgive that twice.

Why is being Anti-Religion so bad? I think if you take religion out of many pictures the image becomes better

I think Bill just wants the creation of the Church of O'Reilly

I'm conducting a survey of those who feel that this country was founded on Christian principles: What is the most important Christian principle found in the US constitution or its amendments? I will tally the results and report back.

@emprguy and then went to a crazy Mennonite school for 2 years. Not only did I not turn in to a Jew, I also didn't turn in to a Mennonite. And I think it's totally OK for people, children or adults, to express their religion. Not force. Not government mandated. But if your kid is going to start speaking in tongues because they were exposed to a hymn, you need to seriously address either your parenting, your childs health, or both.

@emprguy If your daughter is turned in to a zelot by hearing another child sing a sing with a christian theme, you have WAY bigger problems to deal with than some kid singing in school. I'm an atheist, born and raised in fact, but I went to a quasi-religious private school (all private schools have to be religious where I live, but they didn't really do any religion stuff, however 80% of my classmates were Jewish and I was exposed to a LOT of religion through them) from pre-k to grade 6

Well, beyond that, it's unconstitutional for government to be, so that's what's wrong with it in this case.

Just because it makes you feel good doesn't mean it's true. If a belief in a pink unicorn made me donate and volunteer more for the homeless it doesn't mean said unicorn exists. Me having faith in this unicorn is erroneous. What I mean by evidence is empirical concrete evidence for the existence of their God.

@KashaiSakur I'm not going to support any paricular faith in this comment, but I disagree that faith is belief withot evidence. Faith is belief in or trust in someone or something. Some people see evidence in people's lives changing, no matter what faith they subscribe to. I know you may say that we should look at all the negativity of religion, but I think that's the problem. People turn things into religion (i.e. about themselves) and forget about God.
