Newsweek has "Heaven is Real" on the cover - if this is what it takes to stay in business as a newsmagazine just stop. Better dead than sad
Bill Maher Gets Into Twitter Fight With “Newsweek” Over Heaven Cover
As far as mini Twitter spats between famous atheists and controversial magazine editors go, this one is pretty excellent.

nubbytubbybiatchesgalore 7 months agoyou aren’t allowed to have the word “NEWS” in the name of your magazine if you’re going to print the cover story that there’s still no actual evidence for the afterlife if there was, EVERY paper on the planet would be leading with the story. it would literally be the biggest story of all time, bigger than alien contact jesus’ supposed resurrection wasn’t even enough proof of heaven’s existence for 99.999999999999999999% of the people in jerusalem when it supposedly happened. but yet this story finally uncovers proof?

if hell is real than god is an asshole for creating it in the first, and for creating people he already knew would end up there. i thought god was supposed to be love. and “unfortunately for bill”? uh. how about unfortunately for her? how can you be so sure this capricious god of yours insnt sending you there? funny, innit, how people who have these near death experiences never come back from hell

nicolasmittzr 7 months agoI like the ppl asking why atheists can’t be nice. Atheist don’t picket soldiers funerals or fly planes into buildings. They don’t actively fight so that thousands of ppl they have never met can’t marry one another. Yeah, atheists are the problem…

The problem with the cover is that the publication bills itself as a news magazine but presents nonfactual beliefs as truths. You can believe in a heaven or multiple heavens of different religions, or other types of afterlife, or reincarnation, or whatever else, but these beliefs are based on folkloric stories, not factual confirmation. That’s why they’re called beliefs: If they were factual, they’d just be facts. I certainly have nothing against religious people, in fact I’ve often defended religious people from unfair attacks, including from each other. Some of the most beautiful events I’ve ever witnessed have taken place in churches. But none of the religious heavens that have been postulated are factual, they’re stories that are believed by some. And these nonfactual beliefs are not factual front page news, it’s just another cheap attempt at newsstand sales by Newsweek.

So God is a limited resource? I thought he was supposed to be infinite. Strange how you Christians can’t get your own story straight. And how much delight you seem to take in the thought of other people going to Hell.

He says what often needs to be said but no one else has the guts to say. Sometimes he’s completely wrong, and sometimes his opinions are hideously bigoted, and often he’s unnecessarily combative, but he never lets public opinion stop him from speaking his mind.
