Bill Maher Slams Focus On The Family & Being Wrong With No Penalty (VIDEO)

I think Bill Maher is funny often, but I do disagree with him often too. But, on this issue, I agree with him wholeheartedly. As a professor, I see it all the time...this insistence by students that their opinion is as correct as any other opinion, regardless of facts or evidence. There is plague of "false equivalence" in our society today, that is more pervasive than at any point in our young nation's history. I believe that if it is not "cured", that false equivalence will be a death nail in our nation's fall into inevitable irrelevance...
