In a Christmas message posted to YouTube, the talkshow host and political pundit said that The Oprah Winfrey Show's annual 'Favourite Things' episode focuses too much on presents and ignores the more spiritual aspects of the holiday season which she claims to support.
"What people really value is acquiring crap. Oprah's show purports to be a lot about spirituality," he explained.
"If it was, then wouldn't she tell her worshipping flock to sit down and stop losing your s**t over material stuff?"
Maher added: "As for me, I don't really know what spirituality means, but I know if you're weeping over a sweater then you don't either."
