I was warmed to see this video recently.

It really made me feel more closely connected to those who espouse religious belief.

When one sees religion discussed in this way, one realizes that it's worth having as a very real and prominent part of our society.

In all honesty, I am beginning to think that maybe I've been mistaken for all of these years being atheist, as these articulate, hope-bringing words of love and kindness have caused me to more seriously consider making faith a part of my life.

YouTube - George Carlin is in Hell

I wonder if I can join their demonstration outside of his funeral?

Carlin would be proud! What an honor to be chastised by Phelps!

How can you argue with Pastor Phelps?

I mean, he is quoting scripture.

InfNow,
Correct me if I'm wrong, cause lord knows I'm not absolutely right all the time, but I think I believe that perhaps you might be expressing just a little sarcasm.

This is the same sleaze bag that advertised on his web site that he was coming to our town to protest at a soldier’s funeral. They backed out when they figured out what kind of people they would be encountering around here specifically rednecks with guns. This guy's been around for a long time . His congregation is basically his family members.

I think it safe to say everybody hates this guy. Not much to debate when your using this peice of crap as an example of how religion is used by an insane person.

I can't see how any one can take religion seriously without being a little bit insane. Or, to borrow from a popular book title, deluded.

Technically Jesus is not god of anything, he is either the son of god or the avatar of god on earth but the guy who is protesting at Carlin's funeral is a low life piece of shit who's finest hour would have an early abortion. Or possibly to just run down his daddy's leg.

You ever take a course in comparative religion ? or study mythology ? this helped me understand my fellow man’s collective ethos though a knowledge of how we are all in the same metaphorical world.
This guy is a lot like you. Do you realize he like you, see’s something terribly wrong with what other people think, instead of creating original ideas for themselves.

I liked George Carlin. He made people laugh which is doing good in my book. Phelps is what happens to someone who tries to be too good by the book. It causes repression and compulsions. Political correctness must be based on Phelps religion model. Instead of waiting for one to die to be cast into hell, the new method tries to make hell on earth for all the infidels. Each has their own sensitivity paradise. Both get knarly if the infidels are not with the program. Both can quote from books. The only difference is the God word.

The atheist have their own heaven and hell but this is here on earth. Anyone who is religious is considered dilusional. This choice of words is based on delusion equals insanity being a living hell. The atheist heaven on earth is rational and scientific.
