Watched it and was wholly unimpressed with both sides.  Maher seems to say that Islam is bad and implies all practitioners of Islam are bad, then Ben tries to point out he's painting every person with the same brush.  Maher totally misunderstands and thinks Ben is defending the idea of Islam when he clearly isn't and everything just goes fuck up.


He actually said very clearly not all Muslims are bad. Every time you criticize the religion people seem to take it that way.

Like I said, it was a terrible "debate" from both sides. Neither side clearly articulated their intent.

I thought Harris articulated his points very clearly, it's just dumb-dumb Maher kept yelling over him.

Hard to articulate shit with Affleck talking over everybody with his self-righteous, love the world, bullshit.
