Love how Alan pushes back at Bill and dishes it right back at him but also stays respectful great episode
But rarely if ever pushes back with any real tangible facts about anything
It’s a conversation not a fight
Go to sleep
Alan didn’t push back near as much as he should have. Bill told a lot of straight out lies.
@@joeybutts13Bill will always talk over you, never letting one finish a thought. Alan knew this. “Let him become a fool”
Never have I rooted more for the success of a man's career and marriage.
Amen...and kind of sad, Bill asking for his leavings...and really meaning it. ; ) Stay strong Alan, you have a jewel.
Yeah Maher sucks for garbage like that
Word
Yeah great dude
Bill's?
If you did not like Alan before this interview, you can't help but love the guy now.
maybe, if you're a christian.
He seems like a nice guy
totally agree. such a well spoken young man. I wish him and his family many years of happiness. His children have a wonderful father.
Like him more
Similar to the Rock, Arnold humble and know what's he wants
100%
Finally, a guest who doesn't let Mahr constantly interrupt and talk over them.
If you think that is true, why do you watch? I think you just like to complain.
But he was though
@@brucefrank5556maybe he wants to see that change? Food for thought
@@onn8166 No he doesn't. He would have nothing to complain about.
Alan is super cool. He was in Toronto and happened to be at the gym where my Son was working out. By chance, they worked out next to each other for most of it, and after they were done, he was gracious enough to take picture with him. Super nice and down to earth.
He is very much like Henry Cavill. Charismatic, nerdy, handsome and just all around likeable
And based?
@@odiedodieukbased on what?
He’s nothing like Cavil I do know someone fairly acquainted with HC, he can be outrageously arrogant at times and he’s mot concerned with a nice guy persona
@@user-hr4lq8ue8j big farts in my mouth
@@user-hr4lq8ue8j maybe he doesnt like being fairly acquainted with the person you know, ever consider that? Not saying he isn't possibly a dick, but that certainly isn't what anyone would think of as evidence that they are nothing alike. I would think anyone with that kind of fame and fortune could be outrageously arrogant at times. Hell, I am nobody and I am outrageously arrogant at times, but not often enough to be hated by anyone.
Alan handled the religious talk with Bill maybe the best I've ever seen.....not to mention Alan is open and just seems like a true gentleman who is an open book which is so refreshing.
Bill is often times unbearable. I’m so grateful that Alan can be so generous and humble. This was such a wonderful conversation. Wish nothing but the best for this man and his family.
I spent my later teenage years watching Alan play arguably the funniest character in TV history, Thad Castle. He was absolutely hilarious in Blue Mountain State. Had no idea he was this incredibly intelligent. Great person and a great actor.
Thad was that entire show
Blue Mountain was the best show ever!! 😂😂😂
Watch Reacher so we can get a season 3
That was an inspired performance. Absolutely brilliant. Like Ricky from trailer park boys.
Alan, the next Batman. Would be so awesome.
YES!
There you go!
He could maybe be Batman but could never be Bruce Wayne.
Plus Bruce has black hair!
You can’t have a blonde being Bruce!!!!
Guy like a giant AI graphic. Nothing really distinct.
@@SubnetMaskedManI’m sure they would dye his hair if need be. Just like they put a widows peak on BatFleck
Love Alan's vulnerability, he jousted with Bill on Christianity in a very calm and peaceful way. Much respect, one of the best Club Randoms I've seen!
Are you a Clinical Psychologist? obviously NOT, you know nothing of this actor but only what he choses to reveal at this particular moment
@@user-hr4lq8ue8j What a strange comment.
Mr Alan, my respect, thank you for opening about your depression and sharing your weaknesses. That makes you my hero
Super impressed with Alans religious knowledge and how genuinely nice he seems.
yeah, really nice to take his family on the road, home-school his kids who have no friends, and what religion would that be.
How are you doing in life? Malcontent much?@@daviddickey4244
He seems really smart in general
@@daviddickey4244you’re right, he should have thrown them in public school to be indoctrinated lmfao stfu
@@daviddickey4244 Just because you home-school your kids doesn't mean they have no friends, they may not even be using a religious program, maybe just a standard program.
Bill can't just let a guest complete more than 1 sentence in a row. Bill, its ok to not speak for 15 seconds sometimes 😂
What's funny is, Alan admits to having ADHD yet he was more focused than Bill during this discussion. Pot really does fry your brain; Bill is proof of that.
not true, I counted 3 complete sentences.
@@jeffersonadams8711 Pot does not fry your brain. Good God.
Bill needs to give his brain a break from the pot. It's frying him badly
@@Simon-talks Pot doesn't fry your brain. That's stupid nonsense out of a 1950s after school special.
Never watch this show but I was so pleasantly surprised by several elements: 1) Bill and Alan are much more knowledgeable about religion that I ever imagined-which I really enjoyed though I'm an Atheist 2) Alan's courage to discuss his mental health issues 3) Alan is much smarter and thoughtful than I would have stereotyped him to be. Really enjoyed this.
Hello Bonfire.... I'm sorry to say, but Bill really is not knowledgable at all about religion, at all. You can clearly tell his knowledge is from internet memes, that serious atheists are honest and happy to debunk. Alan, equally, either did not want to, or couldn't correct Bill on some very disingenuous remarks about Jesus and Christianity.
Bill uses his platform to regularly spread these religious internet fallacies because he's what called a lazy atheist. He tries to appeal to authority, to back up his claims, but I bet if he was confronted and asked to provide a credible source to back these, you'd see him quickly move onto another subject and say "I'm tired of these religious talks, let's talk about those cool sneakers, where'd you get those?"
He's just another ill-informed atheist. You'll find plenty of them down your local sports bar, but the difference is, he has a platform watched by thousands of gullible people on the internet who buy into his nonsense.
It's not like he is an expert at anything, or seen as a voice of reason. He is a comedian, he is only good at making fun of things. Bill feels the need to either make people laugh, or ridicule them for not having the same views and opinions as him. Quite sad really when you think about. His insecurities and feeling empty, isn't comforted in Christ or God's word, instead he covers it up with humor.
Alan was a very kind person to deal with the way that Bill conducts this interview
This isn’t an interview. This is how bill hangs out with people.
He’s a woke nut job
It isn't an interview, but thanks dad.
@@alamandraxTHANK YOU!
Bill is a asshat when it comes to both politics and religion.
Looking forward to listening to Bill talk for 80% of the time 🍿🤦🏻♂️
😂
He is always interesting!
The 80 20 rule
New rule. Me.
If Bill was smart, he'd read the comments and adjust.
This really helped on Talking Sopranos and Steve Sharippa(?) constant interruptions ,which i believe was from his inexperience with that particular format
Alan is a patient man..
I w e n t to middle school with that dude from Niceville Florida I've seen him over the years doing different projects we weren't friends back in the day or anything but it's cool to see somebody you know doin some cool shit
I knew absolutely nothing about this guy before this, he seems like an amazing man. I hope and pray the best for him and his family
He’s a man. The type of man that I think all men should be. He is an amazing man, and his knowledge of Christianity is awesome.
Bill needs to read up on average salary versus average house price ratio these days, he's so out of touch on that
He really is out of touch with most things that affect the average people in California. he’s rich so he doesn’t have to really worry about house prices or taxes or the price of groceries. He doesn’t have children so he doesn’t have to worry about the things affecting kids these days. so on and so forth
Bill still loves his BF Gavin, and that guy is the biggest reason why so many working/middle class people are leaving CA in such high numbers.
Gavin is voted by more people than simply a single celeb. Cali voters choose him. @@Mickey-1994
@@ghostpos Many CA people vote against their own best interest, but the fact is that many working- and middle-class people are leaving the state. CA is heading down a road of having a minority of super rich people but mostly poor people that can't afford to move.
I guess I know very anecdotal people too, many, who can't move to a home and rents are outrageous.
Holy shit! I love Alan (Always be Thad and Reacher to me) and I never thought I'd see him on this podcast. Super stoked to give this one a listen
And Bill at the end is like, I hope you enjoyed me talking the whole time as much as I did 😮😓🤣🤣🤣
There is no way Bill is not Hugh Heffner's son. As Bill would say: "I don't know it for a fact, but I know it's true"
reading this while listening to Alan's long monologues about marriage, because he talked plenty.
First of all, hats off to Alan for staying true to his testimony and explaining things from a place of love. Also, ironic moment of the day, "My mom spends her free time tilling the weeds at the church."...at the exact same moment Bill literally rolls some weed! Classic!
Much respect for standing your ground Alan, bill is a lost soul. It was good you stayed cool.
It has not been proven that a soul exists.
@@daviddickey4244 lol awesome.
What's a soul? Why is bill lost, because he thinks something different an denies what you can't prove? Yeah.. classic.
so what you're saying is, men can be women and woke left accept this? Think about it@@morbidmanmusic
Is Bill MARRIED & Does he have CHILDREN?
It's going to be hard for Bill to top that one! Thank you Bill and Alan.
He already has many times. 13 minutes in and I’m bored to tears.
Bill is completely out of touch and really an awful human being.
@@FidgetyGuy Your name must be Bill.
@@FellVoiceNope. Try again.
@@FidgetyGuy I at least admire his attempts to reacquaint himself with real people. I am sad for him overall. His actions seem to be discordant with his beliefs, probably because he was raised in a religious environment, so he still performs what was habit, while not truly embracing why he does it. By way of example, I think he believes he's a good person, because he does nice things, but when he expresses his beliefs about the world and the people in it, you know right away he's not very keen on humanity.
I read that Alan was a Christian so I came to see what kind of Christian he was. Sounds like one of the good ones to me.
I appreciate that he says, "you have to believe in magic".
@@MrJayehawk I take that as a metaphor. There is no such thing as magic.
@@wiredforstereo - I'm sure he didn't mean literal magic, but that you have to accept that it takes an act faith to believe in fantastical things and much of the Bible is not based on anything that can be proven with fact.
Regardless, he does seem like a pretty decent guy, and not a lunatic evangelical.
Bill put his high heels on 😅
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
He put his de santis shoes on
What does Bill dress like in private? Does he role play several characters by himself?
😂 didn’t notice it till u pointed it out
OMG LOL didn't notice until this comment!
I have a new respect for Alan! What an excellent job explaining Christianity! A very intelligent family man! I am Catholic, and let me say all Catholics are very upset with what went on, and what goes on. Especially with Pope Francis. We love our Church and religion, but not the humans in charge.
I love it when Bill talks down to people, always makes for a great conversation.
😂
"Oh so its in Theaters?"
He always thinks he’s the smartest person in the room.
Why are you even here? To spread negativity? -_-
@@1AlejoYTno , Bill did that for everyone.
Alan is awesome and his portrayal of Reacher is epic. Nice interview!
The absolute control Alan showed just sitting there while Bill unintelligibly shit on his Faith for an hour. Especially when he could kick Bills ass in an instant. Major respect
You're allowed to "shit" on faith. Free speech is still a thing.
@@nickbarcheck1019 Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences.
not everyone is as unstable as you, apparently.
@@jeffersonadams8711 I know. Just amazing to me that so many people get so upset when you question their faith or religion. I couldn't imagine being so confident about something like people of faith are about their faith. There is absolutely ZERO evidence that there is an afterlife or a God. Believe whatever you want but I shouldn't have to hear about it.
it's just a crappy thing to do to a guest@@nickbarcheck1019
He is a favorite actor in our house. We love this roles.
I have so much respect for Alan, constantly getting thrown jabs at and still staying calm and being respectful towards his beliefs.
Alan is sort of a role model to me in the sense that he's gorgeous, wealthy, talented, stylish, etc etc etc…But also a kind, funny, affable and entirely normal-seeming human being. Fascinating how on top of the world he was, yet it still wasn't enough to save him from his own darkness. Thank goodness he survived his suicide attempt. This is someone that truly deserves to be healthy and happy. One of my favorite episodes of Club Random
I work 7 days a week as a FedEx driver and i still can’t afford a house for my family. Our housing situation looks like Charlie’s family in Willy Wonka.
I think Bill forgets what a "normal,average" salary is. He has multi millions and can probably stop working or at least I hope so. Not doing something right if he can't. My son, if he didn't live home for a few years and work and go to school, wouldn't have had any down payment. Not with rents so high. He works in a school but 40-50,000 a year is average and rent eats a lot of it. He doesn't drink or gamble, pretty boring and still it took a long time to buy. Even now, I worry he spent too much but it's not rosy for the average joe.
Alan kicks ass as reacher
Cruise is way better and believable. The show is fun junk food
@tres311
I agree with the second part of your comment, definitely disagree with the first part. I mean Cruise is a better actor overall than Alan that’s forsure but as far as the role of Reacher, no, AR is far better suited than Tom Cruise.
I do agree however it’s junk food. It feels like Yellowstone in a sense in that it’s like shows about conservative male fantasies, the dialogue is so hammed up at times and way too obvious in its messaging. The plots are always predictable but the target audience doesn’t care, they want their red meat, nothing crazy.
Bill Maher should be in season 3
Alan is such a chill guy, I would love to see him play a version of Batman.
Or Captain America. I think he'd be great in either role!
What a GREAT episode! I love when Bill and the guest have robust discussions about a topic (here religion) and they are respectful to each other, clearly well versed on the topic and allow each other a nod to a good point made now and again. Loved this, beginning to end.
Most likable dude in Hollywood. Awesome guest
and you know this because your an A list agent 😂 he’s an ACTOR something most of these people don’t grasp
@@user-hr4lq8ue8j What?
Wow! Alan is a good good man and such good chemistry with Bill … I loved this conversation …
Alan is so cool in this. To put up with Bill on this topic really says something about his character
I can't get enough of Alan. He's so good..the future is bright!
Alan Ritchson is the rare Hollywood star young people could look up to and admire and emulate.
In the wide range of Club Random interactions, this falls at one extreme where Bill periodically hears another voice speaking, but concludes that he'd much rather hear his own voice - so steps all over the potential conversation. You can quickly tell when Bill's in that sort of mood.
true.,.he was in the mood to debate and concede here and there. alittle better then most other interviews he did
Jack Reacher’s dialog in the books is a cross between Jesse Stone and a mathematical savant. Very stoic. Very loyal. I love the series.
Multi millionaire bill maher tells millions of struggling millennials its the best time ever.
Yeah he has no clue. Housing is out of this world compared to the average salary.
As someone who lives with them have the same job in different decades... they most certainly are. But they are also bigger snowflake cry babies.
So outrageous. I had to turn it off for a min after that.
Well, Bill had the same opinion about millennals like you did. It was the lady with the book that changed his mind.
Data is real. Comparisons are real.
"Multi millionaire bill maher tells millions of struggling millennials its the best time ever."
Yeah, there are millions of millenails that are not struggling.
He's pointing out, that even though we have troubles, as we always have, this is the best show in town. It's an imperfect nation, but it the best that humans have done so far.
My favorite part of these Bill Maher podcasts, is that his guests get to express themselves and 'win' over him. Thank you Bill for providing this forum.
Alan kills in Reacher. he's a great actor
I’d love to see Alan on Jon Bernthal’s podcast (real ones). Would be nice to hear him without being interrupted constantly.
When Alan spoke of Genesis 1, and mentioned the "chaos" -- wow. I know he's a smart guy, far more intelligent than outward signs would indicate, but that's quite the exegesis. I'm a former minister, now atheist, and that is precisely the sentiment in Hebrew. His passing mention of "Q" -- something most scholars now are divided on -- is still impressive. While I don't think Matthew and Luke pulled from Q and most likely from copies of Mark and Matthew for Luke, it's still very impressive.
never knew Alan Ritchson was so down to earth, good episode, good for the guy to be open about mental health and religion, keeping it real. THAD CASTLE RULES BTW
Why does it feel like Bill is just bumbling around with a cigar and a lighter the whole time 😆
he's drunk or high! LOL. you can't tell that?
Cause HE is...
I don’t think that’s a cigar
Alan: "I've seen your movie, it's great."
Bill: "It is great."
wats wrong with saying i know my work is great.
Ritchson is an easy to like, genuine human, with everyday struggles. I'm a fan of his work and now a bigger fan of him as a person
Wow - first time it didn't get political!! Great show, and he spoke about faith openly in a way that Maher got it,, again great show!
Bill just keeps on getting more obnoxious, close minded, and pointlessly offensive. I came here for Reacher, that’s it.
Exactly. Why can't people see this as well?
Bill uses his platform to regularly spread these religious internet fallacies because he's what called a lazy atheist. He tries to appeal to authority, to back up his claims, but I bet if he was confronted and asked to provide a credible source to back these, you'd see him quickly move onto another subject and say "I'm tired of these religious talks, let's talk about those cool sneakers, where'd you get those?"

Bill feels the need to either make people laugh, or ridicule them for not having the same views and opinions as him. Quite sad really when you think about. His insecurities and feeling empty, isn't comforted in Christ or God's word, instead he covers it up with humor.
Agreed. Bill is past it.
I think the weed and liquor makes him super talkative and argumentative.
I had no idea Alan was a su!cide survivor......So glad he stuck around! Now he's awarded being a superstar and providing for his kids and kids' kids. Didn't think I'd become a bigger supporter
"You're not that big" says Bill, gazing upwards at the man towering over him, despite wearing 5 inch lifted boots.
Bill is so loaded in this interview! Lol
He is actually not as loaded as he usually is!😂 Or..maybe I am just used to hearing him like this😂😂
How can you TELL the Difference?
When is he not loaded?!
Great conversation, integrity on both sides "There are people that will never own a home" Alan Ritchson
I appreciate Bill's honesty...I don't agree with his points of view on many things but love to listen to his opinions and how honest he is about what he thinks. His religious knowledge is severely erred!
Towers over Bill.
"You're not THAT big!"
Alan seems like a real nice guy (respectfully), he could absolutely clown Bill.
This dude didn't get through one fucking sentence without Bill interrupting and talking about himself
The only time a guest (Lance A?) interrupted him, I wanted to hear what he had to say. A touching comment about burying his dogs himself in his yard, making headstones from food bowls etc. He cut him right off and he never went back. I would have liked to see the more human part of him, his love for animals is strong.
So happy he's still with us.
This was really enjoyable to watch. Thanks, Alan, for gracing us with your insight and presence.
This was unexpected but enjoyable. Gosh darn it, how supremely handsome is that guy? And not dumb either! Hope it all pans out for him.
Because he’s big and good looking he should be dumb?
@@paulsteen7641 Of course not. No one should be dumb.
It's a stereotype that many actors are dummies, and we focus on the ones who are to confirm that stereotype. I find that most actors have a deeper insight into the human condition than most psychologists or philosophers; understanding people is, after all, the actor's art and craft.
gosh darn? Your syntax is what from the 50s? Don’t be confused he’s seemingly nice, I’ve known many Actors, I’m born raised in LA they’re ACTORS, certainly wouldn’t claim most Actors are beyond the Great Philosophers, PLEASE 😂
@@user-hr4lq8ue8j The ‘gosh darn’ was meant to soften the obvious objectification I was dabbling in. We’re not meant to notice or comment on beautiful people anymore - but I’’l throw away the rule book for Mr Ritchson 😂
Alan is a great Human! So intelligent and just lovely!
I never really understood issues with depression until one day I had a brush with real depression and it was terrifying. Like a huge wave and I had no idea what triggered it. Thank goodness it passed. I can’t imagine living like that all the time.
I was like bill for 17 years with religion. Glad I grew out of that mindset and don’t think like he does anymore. Watching a man in his 60’s still act this way towards religion makes me feel embarrassed and ashamed of myself because I acted the same way towards religious people for years. It’s amazing how your life view changes after your 20’s
Some of us were in the church for 50 years and we are out in our 60s, so it's the opposite of your experience...We decided to look at logic, biology, reason and common sense
Bill Maher is such an inspiration and a reminder that, no matter how stupid and blind you are, you can still become wealthy
Big up Alan Ritchson for not taking Bills bullshit shitting on younger generations!!
Yet, he had zero facts to back up his point
@hamBmill444 Bill rarely has facts!
@@TheWrj513 True. But Alan had absolutely none to present in his argument.
@@hammill444tf is he gonna do tell Jamie to pull up a fucking source?
@@mcnuggetapple Well, you can simply cite a source verbally. Any source.
Alan I appreciate your grace. What you went through and where God has you will speak to others. God Bless.
How Alan held himself in this interview I do not know!. Kudos to him.
Some things I noted though, when Alan gives his head nod response, he is so sure and unruffled and you can tell he's in a "agree to disagree" approach being as Bill is almost at his throat.
What shocked me the most was Bill outright asking why Alan's attempt at taking his own life wasn't successful. That was like a slap in the face and lacked any compassion.
Those meds Alan is on must be working because dang, if that was me, Bill would have been wearing his drink and that cigar shoved where the sun don't shine 😂
Im loving Alan laughing in Bill's face at his Ivory Tower foolishness.
Bill! Stop interrupting him! You can actually see Alan getting annoyed with him at certain parts.
Bill rudely interrupting, talking down, and being condescending to the guy discussing his semi recent suicide is peak Bill Maher.
I felt the same way listening to this interview. Was he really trying to school somebody with bipolar disorder about mental illness? Fucking yikes!
@lisapaget7972 don’t you know that Bill Maher knows everything? He’s in Hollywood!
That dude bringing up his suicide attempt was unnecessary. Way to bring the mood down dude.
Good for Bill to bring in guests from all sides, whether he agrees with them or not. His mind is set and he won't change opinions, but at least he's giving unedited conversations.
Bill always thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room yet disputes Jesus’ historical existence… 🙄
How he hasn't been signed for He-Man is insane... ⚔
That is guaranteed to be shit
Oh damn your right 🎯
@@zacharywhite211lol.
Bill please let your guess talk without interrupting. Alan sounds like a great person.
I'm old, so have never heard of this guy before. I had to Google him before I watched the video. I really enjoyed learning about him.
Matthew and John were both present with Jesus, so, their writings are first-hand accounts at the time of Christ. They were contemporaries for sure.
Prove it? You can't. You were there? You believe men you don't know writing in a book thousands of years old with taking snakes and perverted gods?
If that's all you got, you must have a lot of faith.
Great interview. I will never confuse Alan Ritchson with John Cena again 🙂👍
God bless 'em! Alan Ritchson is one hell of an inspiration. Thanks!
Another episode of "Drunken Grandpa"
This is the best comment.
Love how alan becomes more impervious to bills nonsense as the show goes on and stops humoring him. Its what maher needs for his own good.
I don't know why I would have expected anything different but I was just gobsmacked with his intellect an insight. . Bill could learn a lesson on listening.... I don't watch the show to hear his cynicism. .
Doth protest too much
He is a great actor. And despite the horrbile treatment and pay from studios he still gives it his all
He is a GREAT Raphael, who captured the character's essence and feel.
The insecurity of Bill Maher in this episode is shown through his disrespectful behavior towards a guest.
it's his age and being closer to being possibly wrong.
@@workinprogress-ye5or Possibly being wrong lol. Do you seriously think there is a heaven? You really think every dead person in the history of mankind goes to a place in the sky??
@@nickbarcheck1019 we all should be respectful of other peoples beliefs, something Bill doesn’t always do. I don’t believe there’s a “place in the sky “but I do believe in another place other than here. Everyone has their reasons for believing, or not believing, some just have faith, some have near-death experiences, some have personal experiences they don’t want to share, but that makes them believe. I don’t think it should matter to someone who is secure in his own feelings. If you need to try to change someone else’s feelings, it shows an insecurity that you have
@@deb9806 yes he "doth protest too much" for sure.
I think Bill is smart but maybe stick to Politics and Religion, man he is not self aware or empathetic, especially his take on suicide, came off as a huge narcissist, not everybody lives like he does in pursuit of self importance. I am not Religious but I appreciated Alan's openness and honesty about his beliefs and how he copes in life, seems like he's got a good handle on improving his mental health (He does have a good first name)
As someone with similar diagnoses to Alan, it’s extremely encouraging to hear him speak out about his mental health and destigmatizing it. It goes to show people that this truly is a disease and not a matter of mindset or circumstances. You can have everything going for you on the outside and it can consume you nonetheless. And too many men are uncomfortable discussing their mental health for fear that it appears weak, but if Jack Reacher can be affected, anyone can.
What a bright man. And he managed Bill's interruptions very well.
Bill is wrong. It's" Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth" not heaven!
Bill is such an expert at solving other people's lives and solving issues he knows nothing about.
And he's clearly drunk or buzzed
An old girlfriend who wasn't overly educated by the way she said this, commented Bill loves to teach and taught her a lot about life and other things. I can see that but he also respects a good mind. I just don't think he finds the whole package, young and under 30 and worldly. He says he loves to talk to women and I feel most just nod. ; )
G'day Mr Maher,....I'm glad you Reached out (sorry) to Alan, ive not seen any good long interviews, but was glad to see you 2 have a yarn, and i Agree "get him before he's big". Cheers from a M8 Downunder🙃 for a great chat
Bill usually gets the best of his guests, but kudos to Alan for going toe to toe with his intellect and perspectives.
It’s a conversation, not a competition.
Note Bill is wearing his heels for this one
I'm an Athiest, and I agree with Bill on his postion of religion, but that is a personal belief. And there others who won't believe it in it, to the extent they will use viloence to push their religious belifefs, *cough Palestine* cough all the middle east*.
He is a sweet person who chooses to not push his beliefs on anyone, and his beliefs do no harm to anyone (as he isn't forcing anyone to follow his belief).
Bill just always needs to feel he is right, no respect for people who disagree, and most importantly, do no harm with their beliefs. Their beliefs are what give them secuity, and a moral compass, that harms no one. That is the ideal relgious person you want in our society.
