This is epic and I can’t have said it better myself!
(I hope this guy puts it on Viddler!)
Discovered via Jan’s tweet, and then on Coley’s Tumblr.

Some guy on Australian Idol: “Awww… praise… ahhh God ay!”
Me: “Ahhhh yay Ala! Hah- Hah-“
Disclaimer: I do not watch reality crap. My sister was just watching it downstairs.
For 98,000 years, heaven watches down not caring. And then says 2,000 years ago, ‘It’s time to intervene. Why don’t we give god a son and murder him cruelly in an illiterate part of the Middle East? That ought to solve it.’ That’s what you have to believe in order to be a Christian. Well, I invite you to believe it, but I can’t envy you. The sheer strenuousness, the unbelievable contempt for evidence, the fantastic indifference to everything that humanity has actually succeeded in finding out about itself and its cosmos… that you need to keep this little cult alive. All the same, thanks for having me.

Fine. I’ll say it: For the first half of the Old Testament, God comes off as an angry drunk with a gambling problem and a God Complex.
