Manliness and Godliness, Together At Last

If there was a circle of hell designed especially for me, I'm pretty sure it would closely resemble this:

He's a stand-up comic by trade, but he's here today as an evangelist, on a mission to build up a new Christian man -- one profanity at a time. "It's the wuss-ification of America that's getting us!" screeches Stine, 46.

A moment later he adds a fervent: "Thank you, Lord, for our testosterone!"
