    As a Historian, I do need to make some corrections regarding both Cenk's and Sam's remarks about the Middle Ages. Cenk in particular seems to have been greatly influenced by TV documentaries, which unfortunately depict Europe's Middle Ages as an extremely bleak, barbaric and bruel time. This is largely a modern spin, however, as Sam pointed out. Contrary to Cenk's assertion, Europe DID have libraries; many of them in fact. One of the largest and most famous medieval libraries was that of the monastery of St. Gallen in Switzerland. It still exists today and it can be visited (it's a really beautiful place). Medieval libraries were private but this was equally true for the ones found in the Arab world. Public libraries are a very recent phenomenon in world history. Europeans also founded universities as early as the 12th century. The late Middle Ages in particular were a time of great learning and innovation. To claim that all the Christians back then were fanatics is ludicrous. There was an entire class of clerics who were really pious but ALSO very interested in the natur al sciences, medicine, engineering etc.. Today we call them scholastics. Scholasticism was highly influential in the history of science and philosophy and the Renaissance likely wouldn't have been possible without it. The Middle Ages also weren't as cruel as is often believed today. For example medieval people did NOT burn anyone at the stake. There were no witch hunts. All of these events happened during Early Modern times (16th-18th c.). Even the inquisition didn't really get going until Early Modern times. This is important because something significant happened right at the end of the Middle Ages: the reformation. Contrary to popular belief, it was the Protestants, NOT the Roman Catholic Church, who harbored deeply sexist, anti-semitic and otherwise toxic beliefs. This actually makes sense when you look at what these people preached. All the famous Protestant preachers used the phrase "sola la scriptura". Today we'd call them religious fundamentalists because this is literally what they were. They believed that only the Bible mattered and that it should be interpreted to the letter. The most radical of these religious zealots called themselves Puritans and ended up moving to North America. This is another common misconception about history by the way: the Puritans weren't pushed out of Europe. In fact, most European kingdoms at the time (and the UK in particular) treated them with a great deal of tolerance. The UK under Elizabeth I. even enacted some protections for Jews, so why would they hunt down fellow protestants? In truth, the Puritans WANTED to leave because they couldn't stomach the liberal values in Europe. They moved to North America specifically so they could build their own little theocracy over there, being sure that no one would bother them in their fanaticism. Lastly a word about anti-semitism during the Middle Ages: while anti-semitism doubtlessly existed, Historians generally differentiate between structure and events. It's important to do so because if we don't, we get a very twisted view of the past. For example natural catastrophes were singular events, they weren't structure. Now, in the case of anti-semitism, pogroms did occur but they didn't occur every day or even every year. Let's not forget that we're talking about a time spain of 1,000 years here! Not every person in the Middle Ages was a raging anti-semite; in fact, the overwhelming majority probably wasn't. People in the past weren't different from us today, they had just as much empathy and love as we do. People did have far less information back then of course but nowdays we've got a lot of fake news. In my opinion, religion certainly contributed to anti-semitic pogroms but it wasn't the decisive factor. The decisive factor was the lack of law enforcement. If 200 neonazis today would try to commit a pogrom in Cologne, the city government would immediately call on their police force and perhaps the federal government would even call in some military unit. Medieval cities did not have this option, so once a pogrom got going, there was very little anyone could do to stop it. And while it is true that Jews were prohibited from taking on various jobs, which is doubtlessly anti-semitic, they often excelled in fields such as medicine or trading, where they were usually highly respected by their Christian peers. So, it's important to be very nuanced about these things.

If we’re being remotely charitable it’s pretty clear that he was just trying to say that Jihadism is worse than Nazism, not that the Nazis were literally benign.

Come on now brother. The very fact that he’s using Nazism as his point of comparison with Jihadism in and of itself tells you that he thinks Nazism is bad.

    If we talk barbarism it is more of christians than muslims. It is in the Quran that you get if you kill a human being is as though you are killing the whole of humanity. When Jews are persecuted in the hands of christians it is muslims who always protected them. What islam is against for instance immorality, abuse other people and kill other without a reason. It is absurd someone like Sam Harris to defend west and attack. When Muslims ruled the holy land they protected all people who live in Holy. Later when christian crusaders captured they killed almost all people in the town regardless of their religion Muslims, Jews etc. When later Salahudin Al Ayubi conquered he did not kill the people in the town regardless of their affiliation. Look today what christians are doing in support of zionists persecution of the Muslims in Palestinians. Therefore, when you compare the followers of the two Muslims are superior in terms of high moral ground compared to christians. Christian UK and USA (christians) who we can not finish the atrocities you have done to the other non christians communities in the 20th and 21 cenntury. Start colonialisation of other people, viatnam war, Middle east disaster, Afghanistan onslaught (20 years of atrocities), continued support of apartheid zionist state and so on and so forth. If we compare as whole people Muslims were always more peaceful than christians. That is fact.

  • @tanushko
    @tanushko4 ай бұрын

    Cenk is like: "But the christians killed a lot more people than muslims!" Sam is talking about the doctrine, which is fundamentally different. Straight lines from doctrine to behaviour. That's the key here that Cenk doesn't seem to be able to understand, because he takes it personally. He says he isn't muslim (religiously), but he is a muslim culturally, which is why he can't resist to feel insulted by Sam's explanations.

    Denchanter357 Right, he corners Cenk on this point twice. 1. Why aren't the Christians in Palestine participating in the violence, they are in the same socio-economic position. 2. Why do we take a person at their word when they claim to have committed crime for material reasons, but some dismiss it when they give a religious reason. They both agree on most of it .. it seems they disagree as to what weight all of the environmental, political, economic, religious, mental, and societal factors hold. Fine, they can all play a role.. but it's only religion claiming to be the one and only solution, the system that claims to trump all other factors.

US spread terror when they wage a war against terror. Terror was in Afghanistan only now it is everywhere in the world, people say death to America and Israel not death to China or Brazil or India there are very strong reasons to say that. It is not religion it is an occupation and drones and supporting Israel and shit kings and dictators in the region. Islam has no effect when there is peace and prosperity.

I feel he is a Muslim and he hides it because he knows that it would have been completely unacceptable to the electorate (a mere 7 years after 9/11) and would have ultimately lost him the election in 2008 if he were to declare it. The man is a complete fraud. I will guarantee that after he leaves office the extend of this massive fraud will start to unfold and be slowly revealed.

Only after I give it a few moments of thought I realize Sam makes a lot sense. So I think it has more to do with Cenk trying to stick up for the underdog.

    Sam Harris comes across as calmly ...petulent, arrogant and egotistical as ever. The way he starts (calmly) is: how dare someone say something negative about him on the internet and what an asshole his host, Cenk, is. Wow. He's not gracious about the Interview at all, he's not original, and (to be honest) it's hard to stomach that this type of person has a legion of males that swamp every one of his videos with comments and congratulate themselves on how he wins every argument. You're following a rude, idiot who you've mistaken passive aggressive, pseudo intellectual verbosity for real world articulateness who is actually just petty and snide, a little racist and sexist and who no actual academic considers groundbreaking or original. But yes, he is passive aggressively calm which means he's superior, right?

    someonegetsteve although your criticism of a lack of originality is warranted, misrepresenting his point as merely "how dare someone say something negative about me on the internet" is exactly the kind of thing he was defending. the principle of misrepresentation was the primary issue corrolorated by the fact that the aforementioned misrepresentation was done by journalists claiming or implying their professionality, and that Cenk was at fault for participating within that same sphere of intellectual dishonesty. I personally don't understand your claim that he is both somewhat racist and sexist, and for the most part, the conversation seemed to be an attempt at civility. if someone were interrupting me and misrepresenting my views, then yes; I would more than likely be passive aggressive.

Yet, while Sam is parsing Muslims and the Islamic religion on specific points based on poll numbers, Cenk is essentially trying to excuse _all Muslims_ on the basis that not _all Muslims are terrorists._ Sam is just saying: "If a Muslim believes fucked up shit and it's _specifically because of his/her religion,_ that's a problem." In response Cenk is saying: "But not all Muslims believe fucked up shit, and anyway it's _no different_ from Christianity or Judaism!" You're missing the goddamn point Cenk.

There are catholics and protestants on both sides. As well as atheists and other religions. The IRA which now is mostly catholic was started by protestant farmers. Not catholics. No one ive ever known, and ive known a lot of enlisted terrorists on both sides, have ever stated anything about faith or brought it up. They only talk about sovereignty. For 37 years sounded by this shit, and im not cherry picking. And yes there are religious people on both sides, some very religious.

    One of the things both of these guys keep arguing about are Sins of the past, of the religions. I'll argue, that i's less relevant than the evolution of the religion, the development of it's moral philosophy, and consequently where it stands today. What I see is that Western religion has advanced by being exposed to the philosophers of the 18th and 19th century while Islam is still behind a couple hundred years (well at least 200). Religion in the west still plays a significant role that the philosophers failed to fill . philosophers left behind a moral void, in my opinion.

    I don't think this is surprising. A very, very small percentage of (at least Americans) are required to take philosophy 101, which is typically, basic logic and reasoning.

    LarsArneable man im right there with you. i had to stop watching... i couldnt take it anymore. people in this country LOVE to be offended, and love to be on the moral high horse and talk down to people. to the point where Cenk is going off on Sam Harris before he even understands Sam's argument. Almost everything Cenk was arguing about, I wanted Sam to jump in and say, HEY! you're talking about something that I didnt say

    Yeah...there’s an amount of pretentiousness about Cenk that I find unsettling. He fancies himself a mind-reader sometimes. Sam will say one thing, & Cenk will take that statement, then make all of these extrapolations & conclusions that Sam wasn’t implying at all.

    Juuso Peltoniemi I think Cenk can be quite rational but in this case he is on the hook regarding a previous interview that he really needs to pull. (That is why Harris agreed to this interview.) Obviously he doesn't want to do that; hence his arguments become slippery and defensive.

    Cenk has specific views and opinions that color his perception. You can see this with his interview with Karen Straughan. Cenk being a Feminist and Karen being a MRA. Cenks own ideological bias showed very well and he can not keep his head cool, instead he is very easily emotionally invested in his arguments which is the exact thing you should not do in order to be rational and logical with your argumentation and debates. That is his issue. I think Cenk would do a lot better if he learnt to keep calm and draw logical conclusions after giving a moment to think about them and having an open mind to what other people are saying.

    Cenk, although he has left Islam, has a strong biased for Islam. His favorite defense is, "oh well Christianity did this and that." That isn't a defense to anything Harris is saying. It's coming from a place of bias. Cenk, you must let go of this bias before you can become a true figure in the skeptical, free-thinking world. ALL of the religions are wrong. ALL of the religions are dangerous because they promote a belief in something that is clearly untrue. If people are willing to believe religion based on nothing, thats when we get FOX news being able to say whatever they want because their viewers will not vet the sources or even ask for sources because they are raised not think of those things as important.
