Bill O'Reilly: Public Schools Are Ignoring God!

Bill O'Reilly is an educated man; but when it comes to religion he retreats into the comfy narrow dogmatism of 1950's Catholic education which provided both questions and answers as determined by the Magisterium. Any disagreement with the script was marked with a stern reprimand. That Bill learned his lessons well is shown by his incisive theological exegesis about the divine nature of the tides, Jesus guided evolution, and atheists suck. And as a devout Catholic who has taken over the patriarchal role of looking out for us, he is distressed about a new survey which shows that belief in God, among young people, is plummeting. For Bill, this is troubling and an example of more creeping secularism which, according to Bill, is actually the fault of the American public school system which Bill reprimanded in last week's "Factor's" discussion on how kids might be, in the words of R.E.M., loosing their religion.

At the beginning of his "Impact Segment," Bill reported on Pew Research data which found that 31% of those between the ages of 18 and 29 have expressed doubts about the existence of God. Bill thinks that this means that "secularism has taken hold among younger Americans." (And this is a problem, how?) Bill was joined by guests, Michelle Fields from the right wing "Daily Caller" and liberal Leslie Marshall. Bill, in typical narcissistic fashion, noted that he predicted that this would happen because young people are "not getting the same message, that's important, from society that older Americans once got." (One wonders if Bill was referring to stuff like you're going to hell if you think dirty thoughts, masturbate, have sex before marriage, are sexually attracted to members of the same sex - and if you miss Mass on Sundays - and, given the content of the phone tapes involved in his sexual harassment lawsuit, he didn't get the message about "dirty talk.")
