This was part of a BBC show about Darwin shown earlier in the year.
There was a nice bit in the program showing the evolution of the eye
IIRC. Good stuff.

George Carlin on god & religion

"In the Bullshit Department, a businessman can't hold a candle to a
clergyman. 'Cause I gotta tell you the truth, folks. When it comes to
bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of
the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims,
religion. No contest. No contest.

Religion. Religion easily has the
greatest bullshit story ever told. Think about it. Religion has
actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the
sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the
invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to
do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place,
full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he
will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry
forever and ever 'til the end of time!

But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs
money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise,
somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of
dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now,
you talk about a good bullshit story. Holy Shit! "

Excellent quote, thanks! Nothing like boiling things down to pitch and tar.
