@jn7000 Surely this sketch is an appropriate comment on all dogmatic religion, not just Christianity?

FYI, the original of this skit was part of "Beyond the Fringe" starring Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Alan Bennett, and Jonathan Miller. You can find the link to it on this page. Peter Cook plays the same role in both performances.
I like the original better myself. Cook sounds like he is mailing in the performance here.
The whole "Beyond the Fringe" performance is available on CD and I highly recommend it, but "perhaps I'm old fashioned, perhaps I'm very old fashioned."

happy rapture day! I think now is a good time to think of the reason this particular skit was made for the secret policeman's ball, to raise money to abolish torture and spread human rights through the world. Since the world isn't going to end might as well get back to trying to make it liveable for everyone.

No offense, but this is a perfect video to watch in anticipation of the so-called "Rapture" we'll be having on May 21st.
