george carlin on religion

What about the divine plan? Long time ago God made a divine plan. Gave it a lot of thought, decided it was a good plan, and put it into practise.

Now you come along and pray for something. Now suppose the thing you want isn’t in God’s divine plan. What do you want him to do? Change the plan? Just for you?

Doesn’t seem a little arrogant? What’s the use of being God if every run-down schmuck with a two dollar prayer book can come along and fuck up your plan?

Here’s another one, about rights (and, ultimately, God again):
