Hollyweird Liberal Actress Julianne Moore Doesn't Believe In God


USmagazine.com:
In therapy she trusts. Julianne Moore told The Hollywood Reporter in its new issue that she doesn't believe in God. Instead, she's placed her faith in her therapist and herself.

The Still Alice actress, 54, explained how she's developed her spiritual outlook, much of it stemming from her childhood. "The idea that you're the center of your own narrative and that you can create your life is a great idea," Moore told THR. "I totally believe it. I've been really lucky, but I feel I've completely created my own life."

It's this innate sense of personal control that's made Moore believe — at least in her personal life — the absence of a supreme higher power. "I learned when my mother died five years ago that there is no 'there' there," Moore told the mag. "Structure, it's all imposed. We impose order and narrative on everything in order to understand it. Otherwise, there's nothing but chaos."

Moore opened up about her mom Anne Smith's 2009 death at age 68 from septic shock. "We don't know why it happened," the actress revealed. "She went to bed, and it turned out she had a huge bacterial infection."
I've been saying for years that most social liberals are morally bankrupt because they don't believe God. As for this one, it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who's followed her career and the kind of roles she takes on: ones mostly filled with debauchery including playing a lesbian at least twice. So stupid when people use tragedy as a reason not to believe in God, yeah keep listening to your therapist instead of the Word of the Lord you conceited nitwit.

Bill Maher Says Barack Obama is Obviously An 'Atheist'



Of course, anyone paying attention to The One's support for "gay marriage" and "transgender rights", his ignorance on the global persecution of Christians around the world and his one-time pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, admitting that Barry used the church for political purposes, would already know this. But it's still nice to hear a smug, Godless, white liberal like Maher publicly state the obvious:
It’s been awhile since we’ve had a palate cleanser and … this is sort of cleansing, I guess? Skip to 3:00 for the key bit. I’m tempted to say it proves Gary Oldman’s point that Maher and Jon Stewart get away with stuff that would give the left a collective outrage-aneurysm if it came from anyone else, but eh. Not really. 

We already know from Obama’s gay marriage “evolution” that he’s willing to lie, repeatedly and in major public forums, about his morals in the name of getting elected. He’s a stereotypical ivory-tower liberal; of course he’s always supported gay marriage, and lefties knew it. If Maher wants to go one step further and draw a conclusion about O’s religious beliefs from that same stereotype, they’re in no position to get huffy now. I’m not even sure Oldman’s right that being a comedian is what earns Maher his license to say things that would draw liberal ire otherwise. He’s not joking here, after all. There’s no way to spin this as some over-the-top exaggeration in service to a gag. I think he gets a pass (most of the time) because he’s consistently willing to be vicious to the right, such that when he screws up occasionally and says something “outrageous” about the left, they’re inclined to give him a break to keep him in the game. Being a comedian is just the fig leaf by which that break is given.

Anyway, two things. One: Maher’s not the first to speculate that Obama joined Rev. Wright’s church for political, not religious, reasons. Look no further than Wright himself for that:
In speaking about Barack and Michelle Obama, their longtime pastor, the Rev. Jermiah Wright said, “Church is not their thing. It never was their thing.”…
Wright continues, “ … [S]o the church was not an integral part of their lives before they got married, after they got married.”
Klein says, “But the church was an integral part of his politics?”
Wright says, “Yeah.”
O wanted to get into politics but may have feared, not without reason, that his black “authenticity” would be challenged at some point. It was, in fact, challenged later when he ran against former Black Panther Bobby Rush in a House primary, as he was savaged by opponents for being “not from the ‘hood” and a “white man in blackface.” Joining Trinity may have been his way to build racial and religious credibility among an important constituency. Whether that personal ambition justifies smiling through a “God damn America” sermon or two or 20, I leave for you to judge. (Hint: It doesn’t.)
