[On George Carlin]
That's too bad. I'm sorry to hear that he DIED. But ya know, I think he's down there right now, screaming up at us. He was funny when he wasn't bashing God, the Bible or Christianity. In accordance with his wishes, I will NOT keep him in my thoughts.

I don't believe this particular post is a fundie. The line about him "being down there right now" is lifted directly from one of Carlin's routines. I think George would've approved.
As for the guy not liking Carlin's take on religion, to each his own I guess. I liked all of Carlin's work, but by far my favourite stuff is where he analysed language.
Ahh yes. Believe It!, our favorite little troll. He tried to claim that this was actually complimenting George Carlin, but it was pointed out that it was not, due to context. He eventually devolved his argument into something like (sorry, original posts have been deleted, so paraphrasing):
Some guy: George Carlin would wipe the floor with people like you. That's what he did for a living.
BI!: I'd mop the floor with that skinny pony-tailed punk. Believe it! (Of course, it's easy to now that he's dead and all...)
Some other guy: You know, some respect wouldn't hurt.
BI!: I gave Carlin the respect he deserved.
Rest in peace indeed. A comedian who could make you think, a rare bird in the desolate media landscape, has flown away. He will be sorely missed.
And, to all the Fundie assholes salivating at the thought he's sizzling somewhere: Yeah, that'll make me believe in your cruel god...
So don't keep him your thoughts. Who gives a shit? I hope when you die people say asinine, horrible, made-up shit about you too, you fucking moron.
This douche is back! Been a long time since I've seen his quotes grace FSTDT.
And, you think Carlin was funny when he wasn't joking about your religion? That's when he was at his best! The only reason you didn't find it funny was because he was making fun of fundies like you! Thin-skinned...
I have seven words for you:
Shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, tits. Please rearrange them into a sentence which describes you.
If he's not in your thoughts, why are you posting this drivel?
Hate. It's all your religion has going for it.
Jezebel's Evil Sister: Me too. I was waiting for it.
George Carlin rocked. If there is a hell, and God exists and sent him there, it's his (God's) loss. That kind of funny just shouldn't be lived without willingly.
RIP, man. You were awesome.
"I think he's down there right now, screaming up at us. "
Some people think the world is flat. So what?
"I think he's down there right now, screaming up at us. "
Wait.. you're saying George went to Australia when he died? Awesome!
Yeah I'd relax a little on this one, it's pretty much entirely fond allusions to Carlin material. Even the bit about not keeping him in his thoughts is a reference to a joke from Carlin's last special.
Although the bit about him being funny when he wasn't bashing Christianity makes me laugh. I get that a lot from family members about a lot of authors and stand up comics I'm into. 'I think the guy is incredibly insightful, sharp and witty ... when he's NOT railing against things I believe in'.
How do you know? Aren't you pre-empting God's mercy? That's surely a blasphemy.
Aren't you judging someone? That is God's prerogative. Another blasphemy!
I don't see you going above!
Not that heaven and hell, assuming they exist, have physical locations that would enable us to define them in that way.
Okay so don't kepp him in your thoughts! Hey wait a minute, if you aren't thinking about him, why are you writing about him? Oh yeah, you are fundie, you never think before you write!
It's funny, because Carlin isn't "down there."
Even Carlin didn't really believe in a "down there."
Long live his spirit, though.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
