but I am sure someone over in the religion forum will get their underwear in a bind since some of them like to troll over here.

I think those people have their underwear in a permanent bind.

I have tickets to see Louis CK in Milwaukee in October. 2nd row center. It is going to be AWESOME. His website says the show is all new material.

but would love to see him in person.

As far the trolls go, one has me blocked and it looks like another religious one just blocked me. Seems they don't like me.

My husband and I saw him at the Count Basie theater in Red Bank about two years ago. I laughed so hard, my stomach hurt.

And frequently got arrested for it. Especially in heavily Catholic Boston and Chicago. For BLASPHEMY!!! Yes, in the United States of America.

From 1958 - Lenny Bruce, "Religions Inc."

A little dated now but still hilarious in places. Especially the (collect!) phone call from the Pope to Oral Roberts, about civil rights. The Lib'rul Xians would not like this at all:

"Nah, they don't wanna hear snake in the garden and all that jive. They say we're religious leaders, they want us to DO SOMETHING!"

There's a reference to "Chavez Ravine," which is the site of Dodger Stadium, for non-CA residents. It was full of mostly poor Hispanic residents until the Dodgers moved from Brooklyn, then the developers bulldozed them out. So this may be both a reference to stadium-sized religious events, and a dig at "help the poor" hypocrisy.
