Find the correct text that does not end with the cheezy quote and think slightly outside of your atheist boxes – yes, you are in a box, outside of the Christian box, but still in a box. In such a materialist world where Wal-Mart is taking over the market by buying products in the millions and many of them extremely cheap from China and impoverished countries: hence “We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values”.

I have met several wealthy families where the line “fancier houses, but broken homes” does indeed seem true. It would be an error for me to say that this is a general condition of mankind as there are people like me and several others who are conscious of these things and try to avoid them.

Any text is what you make of it. Whatever in this text refers to morality I disregard for it is a Christian morality of Heaven and Hell: a morality that is not my own. If you can not see past your own prejudice and judgment then we all might as well stop reading and keep our mouths shut.

Carlin held out no hope for mankind. He viewed us more like a plague set upon the Earth by fate. Any ill that befell us, he thought was well deserved. Or as he once said: “your birth certificate is proof of guilt.”

I think others here are right in claiming that believers can’t stand to let anyone slip away, so they jump on here and make the “See? Even a staunch Atheist recanted on his deathbed.” This was not a deathbed statement by Carlin. It was written long before he died, and also like others here have noted, it’s bullshit. Through and through.

He was also a devout worshiper… of the sun.

Carlin wouldn’t write such shit
