4:05Now Playing"A controversial Christian radio host ruffled some feathers on Monday after saying an atheist group was a "bully" who should be "punched in the mouth" (metaphorically, of course).
Matt Barber's comments, made during a broadcast of the Liberty Counsel Faith & Freedom program, were directed toward the Freedom From Religion Foundation for trying to "recreate an America in their own secular, humanist, self-image," according to Mediate."*
Conservative Christian radio host Matt Barber said atheists should be punched in the mouth for "religiously persecuting" Christians, and used a playground bully scenario.
