Somehow I think that the net having ballistic, vocal whiners isn’t exactly up for debate. ---

As a Christian I am offended by the fact that Sara Silverman is just not funny. Now if Amy Schumer had done it, it might be worth watching. ---

> [@Count\_Blucher](#): > > Yeah, but Blond-haired and blue-eyed Jesus thumb-bated her ass? > That might be stretching the the faith of true believers. > > …little bit. Tiny. Yeah. A perverse little part of me suspects that some believers subconsciously would like to be in Sarah’s shoes. The bible is their Harlequin romance novel and Jesus is the strapping shirtless stud they’re powerless to resist. Adds another perspective to “Oh God, oh God, yes!!” ---

I know it’s subjective and all that, but I beg to differ. Take, for example, this little exchange when she was on the Tonight Show… JAY LENO: So, what have you been up to? SARAH: I just spent the weekend at a Kabbalah and I feel so-o-o much better…than you. ---

The best part of that video was the audio for NCIS epsiode they were watching, which cranked up the ludicrous technobabble and bizarre evidence to 11. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sarah-silverman-meets-jesus/680147.md?page=2)
