CHRISTIAN WOMAN REACTS TO GEORGE CARLIN "SWEARING ON THE BIBLE"

As an atheist with a religious background, I like how you can actually tie much of the messaging of Jesus into secular morality...we're only human, we're flawed, fallible, and limited...we must be humble in ourselves and in our understanding of others, love thy neighbor, comfort the poor and afflicted...for the golden rule is all we really need, do unto others as you would have done unto you...

[@JWAM]

@@42Mrgreenman But that is inaccurate. The church has been playing catch-up with secular morality all the time. It is the Christian version of reality that says stupid things like "if there was no god, then you could do aaaaaannything!", completely forgetting that we are social animals which means that our good behaviour towards others is what keeps us and our peers safe. So these few "words of wisdom" attributed to Jesus by western culture is just wrong. It only works if you first create a sickness and then offer the remedy. If you're clear-headed, you'll see it.

[@davidtullis2810]

I hate it when they say George got bitter in his old age. Anyone who knew him said he was the same all his life. The difference was when he first started the obscenity and censorship laws made his comedy more subtle but once the US Supreme Court ruled his bit 7 words you can't say on TV his humor became blatant

[@shawnyoung8752]

HBO was the one who chose Carlin to be the first face. He had no censorship. He was a guy who worked for 10 yesrs to have a good carrerr in LA televusion. He left and 3 years later was the Hippie Dippy Weatherman. Hosted Carson show. Was finally arrested for profanity in 72. He went to Supreme Court for his 7 Dirty Words. He was a irishman who worked hard and played hard. Saw him in 83 then 84 and he had expanded his words from 150 to around 270? He was just observing and commenting on wgat ge saw.

She didn't get the premise of his dialogue and kept interrupting to say that humans came up with rights. No duh, he said that at the beginning and was trying to illustrate the point. Plus, she believes in a god without evidence. She may be intelligent, but I never confuse someone's intelligence with someone being smart. An actually open minded human, would not believe in a holy book or god that was invented by goat herders thousands of years ago. Believing in stuff like that, is the definition of a closed mind. She is tolerant, but open minded, I think not. In my opinion, great reactors will only interrupt after a point or verse, not during it. Factor that, Todd.

George became the philosopher king of comedy over time. He was fearless and unapologetic, and used his forum to say things in the context of comedy that said elsewhere would have seen a swift and mighty backlash. Might be interesting if you reacted to some of his early career performances that were more conventional for the time. Another comedy rec, if you haven't seen it, is Abbott and Costello's classic Who's On First, routine. Often considered one of the greatest of all time. The 1953 Retired Actors Home performance is probably best, if so.

Something to keep in mind about George's talk about having unlimited rights. Exercising your rights carries with it the expectation of accepting the consequences. The world is a giant network of causal relationships. You can't do anything worth mentioning without causing some notable effect, and if we have unlimited rights, that means everyone has unlimited rights, including the right to feel safe. If you think about it like that, we do have unlimited rights.

[@axlslak]

I love George, but I think the Japanese thing is kinda out of context. I'll say this... remember after Covid there were tones of hate crimes on Asian people just because they were "Chinese" and brought Covid? Similarly, this measure was taken _after_ Pearl Harbor. It was taken because of 2 reasons. The US government had no means to distinguish between "good" and "bad" Japanese people. It was both to contain people that might be spies or saboteurs from the country, but also to protect the good abiding citizens from hate crimes, which would been way more prevalent in the 40s then they are now. I think we should put things in context. These people were NOT treated as Jews were treated at Aushwitz. These people didn't die. Were not tortured. And after the war, they were free to return to their lives. In fact, some of them might have been saved by this measure. If they were left in the general population, some of them might have been spies or saboteurs and cause pain to America and it's allies, some of them might have been victims of hate crimes. But you gotta remember this was done 2-3 months after Pearl Harbor, which was the biggest attack then and now on US land/forces. And it was a much bigger deal then than it is now. The fact that Japan was bombed with 2 nuclear devices and the Emperor had to capitulate unconditionally helped a lot to heal the relationship. We do not perceive the hate now, but it was very real back then. That is one point. The other point is that rights are not absolute. George touched on this at the end. Rights only apply as long as you do not infringe on the rights of others. Now, going back to the example George provided with the Japanese people in the US after Pearl Harbor, I would suggest that we didn't know then how to balance national security with people rights, and we don't know now. But, we should keep an eye on this because it's recurring theme that usually makes empires fall.

[@leomessenger2893]

During World War II, the United States forcibly relocated and incarcerated at least 125,284 people of Japanese descent in 75 identified incarceration sites. Most lived on the Pacific Coast, in concentration camps in the western interior of the country. Approximately two-thirds of the inmates were United States citizens. These actions were initiated by president Franklin D. Roosevelt via an executive order shortly after Imperial Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. That´s the Story...
