George Carlin - Religion Is Bullshit
August 3, 2011 at 7:48 pm
Quote:"I don’t have pet peeves — I have major psychotic fucking hatreds! " George Carlin
"In life you can never be too kind or too fair; everyone you meet is carrying a heavy load. When you go through your day expressing kindness and courtesy to all you meet, you leave behind a feeling of warmth and good cheer, and you help alleviate the burdens everyone is struggling with."

No doubt.
It's sad there shall never again be a new George Carlin comedy concert.
But what fun it is to revisit his comedic genius, from time to time.

Yes...but allow me to introduce you to Lewis Black.
Pay close attention to where he calls out Waldork and G-C...almost by name!

Well, it's good for entertainment, but most of what he says is not taken seriously by professionals. He mostly appeals to ridicule, strawmans and so on. As I said, it is good for a laugh. Even I laugh at the things he says, and I'm a Christian.

Christians have a long history of laughing at jews (among other things).
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Just remember, he's talking about you and I think he's right.
"Professionals?" Professional what? Bullshitting bible-thumpers? What use do they serve?

Whatever. I do not wish to make a discussion out of this. It was just a comment.

George Carlin was a professional. And his credentials were far more credible than those of an apologist.

If you "don't wish to make a discussion" out of something, keep it to yourself in the first place. Public forum.
