Billy Connolly on Catholicism & Sarah Palin

If this is all the respect an atheist can come up with for his fellow man, it doesn't go very far in convincing me of his so called superior truth..it really just shows the whole ignoble farce for what it is..


Wait a minute, don't you believe every single human being on the planet is a wretched sinner deserving of eternal damnation?

Not sure if this is to be declared a duplicate, it has 40 extra seconds of content on the front of this video:
http://videosift.com/video/Billy-Connolly-on-Suicide-Bombers


I'm usually the first to admit that I've committed a dupe, and in this case, i hadn't seen the other video , but this is one of those tricky dupe-cases , because i genuinely think the first 30 seconds are brilliant, and they are, in all fairness, missing in the other video.. so its a half-dupe. so I think this deserves to be sifted wiith the 40 first seconds included, I could argue for a merger of some kind, but when you include the first part the focus kinda shifts from suicide bombers to religion.. I cant decide! aaarrrgh!

I ripped to shreds and tossed your *kids provocation in the recycle bin... that is on the Jennifer Connolly clip I have.

It really is not a kid clip ( via bleeping her words ??? all one has to do is use imagination to insert the blank, therefore filling the blank, therefore saying the word, therefore re-enforcing the cuss word, which sir/mam I do know you not forth appreciate such fuddery) not a kid movie at all, I am watching it as we speak and it is fit for a KID if you consider someone of 13 or older. It is very well done, although it has graphic innuendo , adult themes and would give actual kids say 10 year old, nightmares.

Thank you for you interest.

Why aren't there more women on QI?

Ahh, but messenger just said 'successful' comedians. I wasn't vouching as to whether I find them funny (Wanda Sykes for instance I really don't like)... and on the attractiveness front I know many who do find Want attractive. So they were just examples.

For the most part I don't like any comedian who has 'a bit'... as in, they have a particular thing that they do their comedy about, be it that they're a woman, or of different ethnic decent, or are short or fat etc. etc. The truly great comedians just tell stories... and those stories are hilarious.

In their prime, Robin Williams and Billy Connolly were superb examples of this. Connolly especially with his ability to go off on a seemingly random set of tangents for a long, long time (making you laugh hysterically all the while), and yet coming back to his original point after it all, long after you might expect him to have forgotten where he started.

They both have lost their edge these days (probably that issue of once you have money and comfort and power you loose the connection with the 'working man' comedy that you began with... or something). I find Ross Noble to be one of the best at doing this style these days. (I had tickets to see him a couple of weeks back with my wife.... and then my son kinda got his arm broken on the trampoline thanks to me so we missed out... doh)

If a woman comedian can do the same, or can just tell jokes that span a wide gamut of topics. One of my favourites at present is Kitty Flanagan.
