... Dude, George Carlin has the same birthday i do.

Saw him last fall, he said he'd been in and out of hospitals, he wasn't looking too good. I sure hope he has at least another ten years in him.

Thanks for posting this. It is hillarious. Funnily enough I was mentioned this show to a pastor friend today - I have now emailed to them. (The only pastor's I deal with have a great sense of humor).

Thanks for posting this!
I didn't know this was on Youtube.
I'd already listened to it, but to see him perform it is glorious.
I especially like how (in the end) he distinguishes between those who literally believe everything, and those who merely look to the Bible for "moral lessons",
and then mentions the 3 little swine as a better guide.
Superb.
