Maybe America is doing this on purpose...
Maybe, if their religious and scientific beliefs are amusing, their political and economic beliefs will look less scary?

We had something similar in Hungary, after the 1956 revolution.

The government realized that people needed a safety valve -- so mild criticism was allowed by a few comedians, making polite fun of the system and of the leaders.

It worked -- people enjoyed that little bit of freedom so much that they lost some of the bitterness that had spawned the revolution.

Anything you can laugh at does not hurt so much because you feel that you had, finally, some revenge.

God gave me a talkin' to one time, went like this:

Forget me. Go into the world, look for things that are simple, universal, true; then you will know that god exists.

Took me a day. What did I find?

Comedy.

Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me. Well you can forget it because there are no conspiracy theories...

That's just what the government wants you to believe.

If no conspiracy theories exist, then how can it sound like one?

How does a non-existing thing sound?

"If you really believe death leads to eternal bliss then why are you wearing a seatbelt?" That's awesome.
