I thought that kind of religious perspective was insanely funny. Hearing incredibly stupid people try to make sense of current issues seemed entertaining. I often laughed out loud and this was before the Internet LoL.

I could watch Rogan for the same effect, but now I understand the consequences, and it just isn't that funny. It's more like a horror show.
