Newsweek


quote:

Colbert, who is a devout Catholic himself, roasted the speaker over his religiosity in his opening monologue on Monday's Late Night With Stephen Colbert.



What does this even mean? So devout that he knows nothing about scripture and he feels it’s good to mock another Christian’s faith?


quote:

Being biblically faithful is not easy for a guy from Louisiana 'cuz now he has to give up shrimp, crab, oysters and barbecue pork," he said. "And I'm sure he's gonna miss his wife when she has to be cast out of town during the time of her blood, only to be allowed to return when she brings two turtledoves to the tabernacle for the priest to sacrifice."



Either he is biblically ignorant or his writers are. Either way, they should refrain from talking about things in which they have no clue.
I’ll be waiting for his mocking monologue on Islam.

Colbert has never been funny. Even in the old days

Leftists today are incapable of humor. Being perpetually offended doesn't bode well for being funny.

The world would be a better place if Colbert were to receive a beat down that would shut his trap. He’s a trashy POS.

Nope. Also leads to trying too hard. Comes off as whiney/sour grapes

Colbert is about as Christian as Osama bin Laden.

In light of the Reformation thread, saying, "If Colbert is a devout Catholic, I'm the Pope" seems apropos.

Colbert…devout Catholic…


Perhaps he should be made aware of the fact that Johnson’s maternal grandparents were both Italian Catholics.

We all thought it was funny when Book of Mormons was goring a different ox.

I agree, but in this case it’s much the opposite, isn’t it?

If not religious views, then anything they think will reduce the shine on his armor.

It's what they do.

Mormons aren’t Christians. They believe Jesus was just one of many gods and believe that they will be gods too one day with their own planet and multiple spiritual wives.
