Bill O'Reilly Sees Himself as Proof of God

Or, more accurately, he sees his rise to the top of the media world as proof of God. No joke. From his new book, called A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity:

"Next time you meet an atheist, tell him or her that you know a bold, fresh guy, a barbarian who was raised in a working-class home and retains the lessons he learned there.
"Then mention to that atheist that this guy is now watched and listened to, on a daily basis, by millions of people all over the world and, to boot, sells millions of books.
"Then, while the non-believer is digesting all that, ask him or her if they still don't believe there's a God!"

As if you needed any more proof that this man is a complete egomaniac...

Hallelujah, I've seen the light. What? That doesn't work for you? Bill O'Reilly is bold and fresh (and a barbarian?). He came from a working class home. His show and books are popular. God exists, QED. Which part don't you understand?

Funny, I'd always considered the rampant success of a man like Bill O'Reilly to be evidence that God DIDN'T exist.

Bill, we don't want to see your penis no matter how big it is.

Kevin Smith has been making the same claims about his career for years. The underlying message being that God loves O'Reilly and Smith more than, say, every poorer person in the world?

Eek.

Forgetting, for the moment, that Adolph Hitler saw himself the same way...

From BillO's mouth to God[win]'s ears.

Looking at the US today, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.


Billy O needs someone to knock some sense into his delusional and irrational perception of reality...

I think O'Reilly is referring to Barack Obama you idiots.

Third rule of Internet Debate:

As soon as you call someone an idiot, you've started a countdown until you yourself are exposed for being an idiot (start my clock now).

The book is autobiographical you illiterate moron. Could you please at least read the links before you waste electrons on your mindless drivel?

Ok. I feel better now.
