I really enjoy Real Time with Bill Maher, even though Bill is one of those insufferable blowhards whose sense of atheism's superiority to faith appears to be entirely based on knowing jack shit about theology and thereby assuming that there isn't any such thing. Thinking about religion? Surely no one has ever done that! Everyone knows religious people don't know what thinking is. So I have to kind of lalalala my way through his rants on that topic.
Chris Kelly is a writer on Real Time, and also a writer of hilarious columns on HuffPo. I have no idea if he is a current or former Catholic, but I now know that he knows more than enough to blow through Chuck Norris's shitty dimestore theology like a rocket launcher, in an epic takedown that concludes with If you want to put the Bible in schools but you think Mary might have aborted Jesus, if she didn't have to pay for it, you don't get to talk anymore. You are disinvited from an opinion on theology.
To which I say, with no pun intended, Word.
