I was eight years old when I first saw "AL Breeze,the Hippy,Dippy,Weather Man" on a summer replacement show with Buddy Greco. That was my first introduction to the genius of George Carlin. I saw this show on HBO , but the sheer poetry still shines through. Closest thing to Mark Twain we still have around.

Thanks for Carlin's video, Nick. I sent it to an athiest whom I refer
to as "the best Christian I ever met." His moral behavior, charity,
etc, should put some who call themselves Christians to shame.

As a long time member of an atheist community, I can tell you that most atheists are very "down to earth" and highly moralistic.

What you may find even more surprising Lina, is that a typical atheist's knowledge of religion, the bible, and general humanity is far more in depth than the average Christian's knowledge. As well, they are often well versed in other disciplines such as mathematics, science, physics, and metaphysics.

Seth, you have described my atheist friend to a T.
