"Lewis Black Explains Religion". Posted 18 January 2008. YouTube video, accessed 29 March 2009.
In this video clip, comedian Lewis Black (who is generally noted for his comical anger and frustration with current events/hot topics) discusses religion. Black takes to the scientific and logical view of the world, rather than a Creationist or otherwise religious one. He pithily explains that one of the reasons he does not tend to believe in a higher being is because of, he shouts, “FOSSILS!” He also states that he does not have faith, simply because he “has thoughts.” This bit from his routine is obviously only humorous to those with like views, since religion is and has always been a hot topic. While he is not at all diplomatic in his approach to this touchy subject, the way he deals with it is humorous nonetheless because of his conciseness, tone of voice, energy, and wit.
