The main problem is that (anti-) religious humor is usually horribly unfunny (see Bill Hicks, Jim Jefferies).

It often sounds more like preaching then does the religion they're mocking.


If Jefferies is the one I'm thinking of, he has some really quality stuff. Also gotta give a tip of the hat to one of the GOATs, Carlin.

But yes they can get really preachy.

Most of the time comedians say something illogical for laughs. Unfortunately the anti-religious type are taken seriously.

Jokes about God are meant to ease the anxiety that atheists feel about the coming judgement they will face.


The ignorance is unbelievable >.<

I don't know who annoys me more, bad atheists or bad Christians. >.<
Probably bad atheists, because they cause me to be reflected on poorly.
but still...

Carlin's religious stuff is shit too, though. He got all preachy and became unfunny. He was wayyyyy funnier before his voice sounded like gravel.

Jefferies is an Australian douche who gets drunk all the time and yells really loud hoping that makes what he says funnier. He's like Hicks but even more of a jackass.

Jefferies has some legit funny stuff. Taking his friend's paralyzed brother to a brothel? Hilarious.

And Carlin had some good religious stuff. 10 Commandments was good.
