CNN’s Chris Cuomo Dismisses God: ‘You Don’t Need Help From Above’

July 4, 2020 by Staff

(CBN News) CNN’s Chris Cuomo closed a recent program by saying we didn’t need help from the Almighty, instead we just need to “believe in one another” and “do the right thing for yourself and your community” and that would make things better for the country.

Cuomo, who is Catholic, said “You don’t need help from above. It’s within us.”

This isn’t the first time the self-professed believer has criticized petitioning the God of the universe for help here on earth. In November 2018, Cuomo responded to a string of deadly shootings in the US by mocking prayer:

You mock those who lost loved ones because if you gave it any thought at all, you would never walk away from any of these without figuring out a better way to deal with them.”

The liberal anchor then turned to God.

“And prayer? You think leaving it to God is the answer? We pray for strength, we pray for wisdom, for resolve, but we clearly don’t want to act on any of those here,” he said, adding, “So what are you praying for?”
