Artist commentary:
George Carlin (1937-2008) was an American comedian, writer, actor and is easily my favourite stand-up ever. I consider him a prophet (although he wouldn’t like to be called that) for his social, cultural and political commentary and his ability to condense the ridiculousness of humanity into hilarious and biting routines. He had a profound influence on me and my outlook on the world. Like Carlin, I was raised Catholic and growing up I noticed the same contradictions and delusional thinking that he so perfectly summarised in some of his jokes. Carlin was fearless on stage, covering everything from religion, abortion, murder, suicide, child-rearing, government, patriotism, gun-control, obesity and war. A true hero of mine.
Yes but then people would realize that any belief system with a sufficiently large number of adherents would have the same value, as you’ll always have some dumb schmucks behaving like shit and some good people acting in an inspiring way.
Gotta be able to categorize them somehow !! /s
