"I'd like to thank god for all my success...
...even though I've never worshiped him, or believed in him in any way."

-Krusty The Clown


I just love the Simpsons.

1. I loved the classic...
"Bart says grace" scene:

"Dear God--we paid for all this stuff ourselves, so thanks for nothing. Amen."

2. Or....
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 03:02 PM by defiant1
Homer - "Can Jesus microwave a burrito so hot, that even he, himself, could not eat it?"

Flanders - "Well as far as melonscratchers go, that's a honey doodle."

From the greatest Simpsons episode ever, Homer and his medicinal marijuana. (not the actual name)

:rofl:

*edited for a few things I should of caught the first time*

3. Who was the comedian...
...who spun the "thank JeeZus" argument the other way?

It might have been Chris Rock, but I'm not sure.

I remember catching the bit and nearly falling off the couch laughing.

"The jocks always thank God or Jesus when they win the game.

But why don't they ever say: "I woulda caught that pass, if Jesus hadn't tripped me up and broke my leg?"

5. Prayer has no place in the public schools...
just like facts have no place in organized religion.
