About this episode
The latest episode of Bill Maher’s Club Random features conservative activist Charlie Kirk. It was a very rich, insightful, and far-ranging discussion, but when things turned to religion, is where both men appeared to miss something fundamental In this episode, I dive into the roots of religion, why moral order can’t exist without the sacred, and how even Maher’s liberalism operates as a religion in disguise. Learn how our civilization is built on sacred truths and why dismissing them might be tearing society apart. -- Visit https://sambrosa.com/discount/TURLEY and use code TURLEY to get your 25% Discount.* If you wanna take advantage of this ECONOMIC BOOM, click on the link https://neoscdg.org/golden-age-summit or scan the QR code and get registered!* *The content presented by sponsors may contain affiliate links.

It’s not a matter of having social order over here and religion over there that somehow helps society out; religion is social order.” "Bill Maher’s conception of religion has nothing to do with a critical academic study of what religion actually is.” “Bill Maher is just as religious as any pharaoh in ancient Egypt." “Bill Maher’s atheistic-agnosticism is not the religion that founded this nation, and so, it’s no surprise that when that very atheistic-agnosticism starts taking over our public institutions, our nation unravels.” Timestamps: [01:10] Why Bill Maher is “inescapably religious” despite claiming otherwise [08:59] The Ten Commandments as an example of how morality is rooted in a sacred source [10:42] “Word to world” vs “world to word” conceptions of truth and reality [16:36] Our founding fathers did not disparage religion the way Bill Maher does -- Thank you for taking the time to listen to this episode.
