      Furthermore if you do believe that atheism is true then your doing so based on preconceived biases and not on the basis of evidence or theory, this became clear to everyone when the 'New Atheists' started debating religious apologists and got trounced over and over, so they went back to attacking religion from a distance.

      I wasn't confusing them, faith is based on knowledge, all belief lies upon foundations, the argument is whether those foundations are plausible or not, im forced to admit, in order to be intellectually honest, that the plausibility of a deity is more plausible then a lack of one. Many atheist thinkers agree with this, those who don't are forced to lie to themselves or their ignorance will blind them.

George Carlin and other American comedians can be quite pointed in their negative comments against religion and their audiences roared at the hilarity. Also, ridiculing belief doesn't make it go away, otherwise it would have died out decades ago. But such ridicule is part of our First Amendment rights, so go ahead and buy Mr. Carr a plane ticket.

They're like a criminal who's been tarred, feathered, run out of town on a rail only to saunter back moments later, saying, "By the way, can I pick up all the bags of gold I swindled you people out of before I head to my next stop?

      One classic example for me occurs in the last act of “Cyrano de Bergerac”. One Saturday, a bunch of nuns are sitting around gossiping about Cyrano’s upcoming weekly visit, just a few minutes away. They talk about what a good man he is to visit his cousin every week. One grumbles that he’s a bad Catholic, however. Another excitedly exclaims that they’ll convert him yet. But the last, older and wiser than the others, forbids it. If they pestered him too much, he might discontinue his visits.
      But how can they “convert” him? He’s already a Catholic, isn’t he? It’s because he always looks at one of them solemnly and states, “Sister, I ate meat yesterday.” See, that makes him a BAD Catholic. He doesn’t practice but he’s not allowed to leave the faith. 

    How to word this?? I'm a committed Christian (no, I haven't been committed) and (or do you expect me to say "but") love religious comedy - your faith is questionable if you can't laugh at yourself, and but for a few uncomfortable moments, found Jimmy's comedy hilarious. Let's face it, the church, any church, leaves itself open for comedy - the very sad bit is that a lot of this is due to sexual abuse, notably but by no means exclusively within the Roman Catholic church. Obviously I'm not a fundamentalist (I find fundamentalists very sad, so negative which is the opposite of the Christian message). My disappointment with this compilation is that there are virtually no older people in the audiences - I'm in my 70's - I'm not sure what the lack of people my age in the audience means.

      Religion is the remembrance of those days and finally its slowly falling away. Doesnt mean everyone is that far yet. But generally we atleast stopped believing the crazy person who says he is a god etc.
      But still a long way to go.

    "The way to deal with superstition is not to be polite to it, but to tackle it with all arms, and so rout it, cripple it, and make it forever infamous and ridiculous. Is it perchance cherished by persons who should know better? Then their folly should be brought out into the light of day, and exhibited there in all its hideousness until they flee from it, hiding their heads in shame."
