These are people defining themselves by something other than who they can defeat and enslave. If they had not done that, chances are yours and my life would be very different. These people were creating something new, Moses’ people, they just broke the bonds of slavery, that was something really new. Besides, how else am I going to know when football is on? You take away the Sabbath, and the next thing you know football looks like baseball with games on Wednesday afternoon. If I have to claim to be religious just so I can have Sunday off, I’ll do it. First of all, a lot of people went to a lot of trouble so we could have weekends. But this new God won’t even tell you know his name, and he says he’s the only one, and he doesn’t want idols.Īnd “remember the sabbath”, you gotta keep that. You make sacrifices to make that God happy, and you make idols so you can talk to it. Your God is better of course and protects you from theirs. Your tribe has a God, and you assume that the tribe down the river has a different God. This is a time when Gods are related to tribes and to places. It takes 6 verses just to cover the first two commandments. Okay, but let’s look at what’s was going on at the time. The first three are dismissed without much discussion because of “spookey language”, “designed to intimidate”.
Designed to control? Well, I’d like to control anyone who wants to come into my house, covet my stuff, including my wife, so maybe agreeing not to do that is not such a bad idea. So let’s get started, George’s first question is, why 10? I agree with it being a marketing decision. This is not addressed to George anyway, besides he himself said that he wouldn’t care, he wasn’t trying to create any system of beliefs. He is a comic genius, a hard worker, and I wish I would have thought of doing this before he died. I have been following him ever since he wore a tie and had short hair when Johnny Carson hosted The Tonight Show and he did the ippy dippy weather man with all the ippy dippy weather, man. About 5 and a half minutes in.įirst off, I love George Carlin. This is only bleeped version I have found on YouTube It is a televised version of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, Part 7 of 8. My Mom got me that for Christmas one year. It was in his book, “When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops”. If you haven’t seen it, it’s not hard to find. This is a response to George Carlin’s bit on the 10 commandments.
