bill maher make as good point. >> if vast majority of muslims believe that humans deserve to die for book or eloping with the wrong person, not only does the muslim world have something in common with isis, it has too much in common with isis. >> answar responds with an analogy from america. >> the christians that west borough baptist church believe god hates home sexuals and as a result, they picket the burial ceremonies of american soldiers who die overseas. now christians in the united states also believe that home sexiality is a sin. so, they share that belief. but they would never share in those actions. by bill maher's logic, those two groups are essentially the same, because they share one fundamental belief. >> sam, a critic of islam, counters with his own american analogy. >> to have a play on broadway, like the book of mormon, it is unthinkable to produce such a play on the topic of islam. >> the hit broadway musical, lampoons the salt lake city based religion. >> what did they do? they took out ads for mormonism in the program, which is an adorable response. but there's no

but if people -- i think -- and i was listening to bill maher say this and this is important and we take this seriously, that our side of the political fence often times does not come out to vote. therefore, the other side, they're very good at getting up in the morning and going to vote. that should be a real concern. and i said this on your show before, and the polls have proven this to be true, if bernie sanders was the candidate, he's a safer choice to beat trump than hillary. they both can beat him. but i think his strategy will be to focus on the part of the country i'm from, because he says things like if ford takes that factory out of detroit and takes it to mexico -- >> i will just tell them no, you cannot leave. i've seen this argument from sanders folks and in aggregate polling, it is based on data that show the margins of bernie sanders and hillary clinton. but it's based on a fiction aleck shun that hasn't happened. >> it's six months away. >> i don't think most people support bernie sanders because he's the most likely to beat trump. >> they are voting from their conscience
