    This past Monday, Bill Maher had Penn Jilette (of Penn & Teller) on his show, "Pollitically Incorrect with Bill Maher".

    Penn had the following to say about religion:

    Penn: When people over 7 years old have imaginary friends, there's going to be trouble.

    It doesn't matter who their imaginary friend is, if they go to prison or they follow the Abrahamic religions,

    they're going to be killing somebody. It's just a really dangerous thing to have people believe in things

    that they can't prove.

    Bill: Oh, I see what you're saying.

    I thought you were talking about President Bush.

    Penn: People that say, "I am doing this on faith," whether that faith is, no matter what that faith is,

    when it's not based on love of people and humanity, there's gonna be trouble.

    If you want to make airplanes safe, just make everyone that gets on the airplane

    eat some bacon and touch a penis and everything gets solved.

    Kinsman & I just cracked up!! We're really going to miss Bill Maher.
