Sacrilegious + delicious = title of this post. (Simpsons)
I didn't find much funny about this trailer until I heard Samuel L. Jackson's final outburst. Is it me or will there be a trend in portraying god as a famous black actor... Morgan Freeman in Bruce Almighty, now Samuel L in this weirdo film hehe.
Either way, I am a huge fan of religious parodying because I believe people sometimes take religion too seriously. This may result in the occasional embarrassing conversation or, at the other extreme, a holy war - which is an oxymoron that demeans both the "holy" and the "war" aspect of the phrase. I feel that one can get a better understanding of their faith if they were to take it less seriously. Does that make sense? I really don't think I'm saying what I'm thinking... Ok, enough preaching, I really just wanted to show that stupid trailer.
Religion is easy. Math is hard.

God Hates Jobs
I am a huge fan of religious doubt as I feel that the more you doubt, the more you question, and the more you question the closer you will be to the truth. Now that I've gotten the semiserious and pseudodeep intermingling thoughts hidden in the far recesses of my mind out into the open, I would like to present to you a video my professor recently emailed to the class.
The course is entitled "The Devil's Pact in Literature, Music and Film".
