No one is standing up for Islamism. They're quite articulate in detailing the distinctions between peaceful Muslims and the fringe minority of radicals who take the writings literally and act violently. They're criticizing the fundamentalists and saying they need reform, that's not standing up for them. We *are* standing up for religious freedom though, and those who practice without harming others should not be subjected to persecution just because some bad apples are ruining it for them. They explain that it's a war of ideas and I hope people listening understand, that in order to truly defeat terrorism we need to win the minds of extremists and reform their thinking from being radical.

I am a "former" unforgiven sinner because of Jesus Christ. Hi, Brother! Sam Harris cannot help you face a holy God ( The perfection of Moral Justice) " Unforgiven" and come through it without being banished to outer darkness, where God has no choice but to let a sinner take themselves, by their unbelief. So take the next step and come to the only one who can save your soul and keep you safe after death. John 14:6 New International Version (NIV) 6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Acts 10:42 V VV He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. Sam Harris cannot help you pass through this judgement, which will consume any who deny the truth about Jesus ( The Gospel Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) and lead them to everlasting destruction shut out from the presence of the Lord. Matthew 11:28-30 New International Version (NIV) 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” "Have mercy on me oh God a sinner!" and you will be saved ! if you believe what Jesus said! Not Sam Harris!

Your approach and thinking is all wrong. 1. You talk about islam like it is one unison body. It isnt. There are deep cultural and historical wounds between people and nations in middle east and central asia. There arent two countries that are the same. Literally all of them have different laws, cultures and histories. The only think they have in common is their religion, Islam. But even there there are differences. Sunni, Shia, Ahmedis, secularists, communists and wahabbists. Two of which are in immense power and influence: Saudis with Wahabbism and Iran (Although Iran is more about geopolitical influence and less about religion). A muslim from Pakistan will not have the same ideas as one from Saudi or Iran or Egypt, or Indonesia or India and so on and on. There are so many layers that it is impossible under any circumstance to use the word "Muslims" or "Islam" to describe all of these nations and people. 2. Migrant crisis did not happen all of the sudden. Its an effect. Every time there is war in one country there will be inevitable refugees. Now I dont think i have to tell you the difference between immigrants and refugges do I? Lets see, before the syrian civil war...how many Syrian refugees did we had? Do you see the pathern? Also only a fraction of Syrian refugees are comming to Europe. The vast majority are in neighboring countries. US who are complaining the most are so far taken less than 1500 refugees compared to Millions that are in Lebanon. hundred of thousands in Turkey etc. 3. How we can avoid having refugrees? Lets start by not "helping" them with our military....omg. Do you remember the days when we cared so much about Iraqis and afghans and Syrians that we had this moral obligation to free them from regimes we previously had armed and helped to suppress their population? Now we cared so much that We just Had to free them by bombing their country and starting wars... How can you honestly put any blame on muslims here? They didnt start war with you? Iraq didnt bomb the west. The government of Afghanistan came begging you for help with warning about Talibans but you completely ignored them and let them be. All they asked for was help and weapons to fight Taliban. The same taliban you were training and arming trough pakistan. Later you went and start bombing them to freedom. Syria didnt bomb or pose any threat to the west, yet you destroyed their country. Lets not BS ourself here.... "oh the muslims were fighting there bla bla" NO. You removed a communist inspired secular Saddam and opened the flood gates to hell. The west and US have been in war with middle east for 15 years! Have any of you felt like your life was in danger? Did you felt like it was a war? Well for people in middle east every fucking day it war. Real War. So my conclusion is please put yourself in their position and tell me what you would have done? And then see what wast majority of muslims are actually doing? Are they hating on you? Miraculously they still think you are okey. Is there extremists who are terrorists? Yes, but lets not pretend the few that hate you do so without any reason.

Dick Cheney would be laughing historically to hear the blatant, pro-Iraq war propaganda repeated. Sam Harris IS a hypocrite, one who pretends to apply rationality to political and social discourse but pretends to be that fucking naive about history. He is a neo-con dressed up as a liberal thinker. He condemns Saudi when human rights organizations do, but leaps up at any chance to defend Israel against the same humanist organizations, in defiance of the world's judgment. Fuck you for your misleading and cliche lies about Chomsky, and fuck Harris for having the gall to pretend to give a shit about rationality.

I am a Pakistani-Australian atheist and I admire Sam Harris. I lean towards the Left on almost all issues EXCEPT the Left's take on Islam (real liberals like Harris and Maher are exception, not the rule, unfortunately). MY 5-CENTS ON THE SUBJECT: Western world has had a profound impact on the whole planet and leads in everything one can think of. Western scholars, Universities, ideas, technology, Hollywood, art, and culture constitute a force that dwarfs everything else of its kind and has literally shaped the planet. Much of that substance in West's power comes from Western liberals (no offence to conservatives but one professor at Harvard carries the intellectual weight 1000 truck drivers in Missouri... MIT, Silicon Valley, Apple, Google, Microsoft, UC Berkley, Nobel Prizes and Hollywood are not in Kansas, Kentucky or Mississippi; almost same can be said of most Western countries). IF Western liberals wanted to take part in modernising and reforming Islam, they can do it two decades. This may sound exaggeration because people tend to underestimate the influence of West on everyone else. From Pakistani boys in villages playing cricket during the day and watching Hollywood shows during night, to Vietnamese brides wearing white dresses on their weddings to people eating KFC in Argentina to leaders of Kenya and Mozambique conducting diplomatic talks in English language, Western culture is becoming the default culture of the planet. I was raised in Pakistan and believe me Western liberals (both scholars and artists) have audiences, platforms and ways to shape people's opinions. Not to mention the whole project of reforming Islam is completely in line with liberal values; for example, what is more feminist than freeing women from burkas. Despite all this, the reluctance of liberals to speak up in support of this project, or even worse their tendency to speak AGINST this project, is mind boggling. Western conservatives appear to have will to support this project but they don't have audience or platforms. This is why this conversation between Harris and Maher, both staunch liberals, is so important. -- Comment was edited later on for grammatical errors only.

And greater the contribution of a scientist, more likely liberal they are. There have been surveys from University professors of all disciplines on their political opinions, which you can Google easily. While in the ENTIRE population of scientists, there are only 65% liberal but if you poll only from most best of the best scientists who are the leaders of their disciplines, you will notice that 90% liberals. This is true for most disciplines in STEM and humanities. The one exception is Business related departments, where liberal and conservative are about 50-50. Interestingly, you are not the first person making the claim of 'conservative scientists'. Apparently in the bubble of Breitbart, alternative facts and alternatively reality, this notion is quite popular and widely accepted. Welcome to the real world!

Ricardo Guanipa DUCATIPUNK This kind of "elitist" one sided view of the situation in the Middle East is very dangerous and actually empowers Trump and his base. Religion has always been a tool used in politics and war throughout history, however it is not the only factor to consider when dealing with this issue. Ignoring the historical context of the modern day "radical Islam" or "Islamic terrorism" won't lead to any solutions. Instead, it will keep polarizing both ends of the spectrum and radicalize that region of the world even further. The West's interests in the Middle East and the methods used (violence and propaganda) to archive it's goals play a huge role in the radicalization of Muslims, and to ignore this fact is very hypocritical of my two educated liberals here. Let's take Iran as a case in Study: Undisputed records show that Big Oil Companies, the US (CIA) and the UK played a direct role in overthrowing a democratically elected, secular president and replaced him with a ruthless dictator, with the purpose of accessing cheap oil and gas and also to have political control over the region. This in turn led to a revolt by the people of Iran making it easy for fundamentalist to take over the Iranian government. On the other hand the US is very friendly with Saudi Arabia (which is the most conservative, religious and backward state in that region) because it's leaders dance to the tune of The US's music. So clearly the religion is not the only (not even the main) contributing factor to the violence in the Middle East, nor the radicalism. Politics, money and power are, yet I didn't here them mention any of the above in the "elitist" conversation.

I don't think the origins of Islamic fundamentalism are deniable; colonialism and Cold War proxyism certainly laid fertile soil for all sorts of extremism. However, these two do mention that obvious truth, but continue the conversation forward. It isn't about whether Islam is the primary reason for a problem in any particular country or the whole world even. It is much more about the ethical and political conflict with sharia law potentially disallowing freedom of any particular person. Like argued in this video, there are core belief system divisions between what I would call Western values, (open public expression for both sexes being a prime example), and the related tenets of Islamic culture. This represents the real problem. It isn't about whether Islam is the prime causal reason for any problem. It's much more about the fundamental disagreement with someone who requires terms of law and life that I consider limiting on human rights. Many of those someones follow the Koran. Of course, that isn't to say that there are not lingering and serious rights issues in the West as well. But to pretend there are not grave injustices committed worldwide continuously with Islam touted by the perpetrators as a primary motivation is just groundless.

The current loudest liberals should actually be called the "regressive left".

I just don't understand why feminists on the Western World take the muslims under their wings, seriously, ones like to have their women use burkas and hijabs, while the other ones have "Free the nipple" marches.

Becauses the current generation on the left want force over debate (upper left near the Marxists), they simply want to take power from those that have it and distribute it from the bottom up.

+Ryan P Trump called for a muslim ban you can read it from a transcript of an interview Pence and Trump did while still running. He did try and change it up and said "So you call it territories. OK? We're gonna do territories" to translate the idea here, based on the context of the question and responses given, is we will call it whatever you like but I want to ban Muslims. "Lesley Stahl: Let's talk about-- some of the issues. Because there seems to be some daylight between you two, and we can just tick-- go quickly through these. Immigration. Mr. Trump, you have called for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States. Do you agree with that? Mike Pence: I do. In fact, in Indiana we suspended the Syrian refugee program in the wake of the terrorist attack. We have no higher priority than the safety and security of the people of this country, and Donald Trump-- Lesley Stahl: Now-- Mike Pence: --is right to-- Lesley Stahl: --in December-- Mike Pence: --articulate that view. Lesley Stahl: --in December you tweeted, and I quote you, "Calls to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. are offensive and unconstitutional." Donald Trump: So you call it territories. OK? We're gonna do territories. We're gonna not let people come in from Syria that nobody knows who they are. Hillary Clinton wants 550 percent more people to come in than Obama-- Lesley Stahl: So you-- Donald Trump: --who doesn't know what he's-- Lesley Stahl: --so you're changing-- Donald Trump: --so we're going to-- Lesley Stahl: --your position. Donald Trump: --no, I-- call it whatever you want. We'll call it territories, OK? Lesley Stahl: So not Muslims? Donald Trump: You know-- the Constitution -- there's nothing like it. But it doesn't necessarily give us the right to commit suicide, as a country, OK? And I'll tell you this. Call it whatever you want, change territories, but there are territories and terror states and terror nations that we're not gonna allow the people to come into our country. And we're gonna have a thing called "Extreme vetting." And if people wanna come in, there's gonna be extreme vetting. We're gonna have extreme vetting. They're gonna come in and we're gonna know where they came from and who they are. Mike Pence: You just asked me--if I'm comfortable with that-- Mike Pence: --and I am. What-- what Donald-- Lesley Stahl: You're on the same-- Mike Pence: Which-- Lesley Stahl: --page on that?" So that said this EO is the start of said ban Trump claimed he would do.

Love this conversation.. opening and calmly talking about problems with Islam in western worlds. Kudos Bill and Sam!!

Brilliant show,well spoken and to the point!!!!!!!!..I wish more could understand the simplicity of this topic that many should follow but sadly,many don't!!

I am a liberal and I am allergic to leftist cultists who are critical of religion only when it is not Islam. These people are completely opposite of what liberal values stand for and are a threat to liberalism. More liberals need to speak out against this hypocrisy, this is what is pushing the moderates to desperate measures and turn to conservatives for help because we refuse to even acknowledge, let alone resolve, the cultural crisis posed by Islamist fundamentalism, and by that I don't mean terrorists but many Muslim countries, sects and people that are against democracy, equality and freedom of speech.

Schneider W i 100% agree! I think a lot of these leftists can’t separate critique of Islam with the blatant anti Muslim scare tactics present on the right. It’s honestly something that took me awhile to get out of as well.

Schneider W Wow. Looks like there are some intelligent liberals other than Sam and Bill after all. Kudos brother from a Mexican Conservative Trump supporter.

Sam Harris... I could listen to him for hours :) It's so comforting. Wish there will be more people who would speak so calmly and persuasive. With Bill they are my favourite duo. Hope to see them together more often.

A Christian apologist that has some insight into the Arabic Quran is David Wood, Acts 17. He deeply involves himself in learning and communicating. His best friend was a Muslim, and there are other apologists trying to bridge the gap.

I am an Ex Muslim Atheist and Sam Harris and Bill Maher are two of those because of whom I left religion...Love them both.

Let your first guest join the panel if they are gonna stick around for overtime. We want more Sam Harris.

I am a former Muslim. I live in Kabul; I have seen women with than kind of Hijab( Chaderi ) almost every day. There was a sense of sadness and horror to it. Thanks to TV and internet, some of women can breath properly now, and do not use Chaderi no more.

Sam's podcast is also outstanding. Highly recommended.

Carlin identified the left as the surprising and insidious enemy of free speech, with PC to match and replace the RC (religious correctness) that went after Lenny Bruce and himself in the 60s and 70s. Near the end of his life he diagnosed the left as having an attitude of 'Big White Daddy knows best', despising their condescending paternalism and coddling.

sam harris for president

I have been an atheist until the vision received. Not the labels that people put one another are important for the Creator of this reality (such as: Atheist, Christian, Jew, Muslim, Hindu...) but *our deeds* instead, how we use the freedom He has offered, our free will, to strive always to do only good, to never cause useless suffering (any damage) to others and to ourselves.

I saw this video before i knew the backstory about the argument Sam Harris and Bill had with Ben Affleck. Could you imagine how strange this comment "If batman where here he would call us a racists" sounds without knowing the backstory? From out of know where a random superhero is mentiond? I was so freaking confused i actually started googling "batman racists" and didn't find anything.
