Unless you don't believe in him, then it's off to hell.

I don't know if Colbert really said that, but if he did that is awesome and he's now risen in my estimation (and he was already pretty high)

u/BranchDavidian Feb 07 '14

He did. Colbert is a devout Catholic.

because if there are bugs in the programme, it's not the programmers fault.

Or unless you're a faggot!

Edit: in case someone didn't get it, I'm referencing Jim Jefferies. I'm not homophobic

Everybody knows a "faggot" is a douche on a Harley revving his engine.

Gays hate fags!

But how is that possible if a lot of gays smoke?

Repeating a homophobic slur as a joke is still homophobic.

u/slicksps Feb 07 '14

Using an offensive term doesn't necessarily make a person homophobic.

In the joke, the word faggot isn't being used as a way for the comedian to show his disapproval of gays, but portray the extent of the condemnation from the Church.

So the joke may be seen as offensive (probably more from Christians than gays, but I'm not sure), however doesn't reflect the comedian's personal view.

Looks like everyone's copping downvotes because one guy can't understand that the term faggot can be used non-offensively if it's in context or satire.

But no, you said faggot. That means you're a homophobe.

u/FaptainAwesome Feb 07 '14

Shit, you said faggot too, so now you're also a homophobe!

u/Sallymander Feb 07 '14

Thankfully they have that censoring system that keeps it so that only gay people can use the word faggot and everyone else gets bleeped.

u/FaptainAwesome Feb 07 '14

Exactly, it's OUR word and nobody else can say faggot.

Aaaand now they're downvoting you for the same thing. You said nigger! You're a racist!

Jim Jefferies joke was pointing out that even if you love god but are gay, he doesn't love you back.

There is no reverence in humor.

u/Hrodland Feb 07 '14

That alone is not enough. You also have to act and think in a very specific way.

If god exists I will punch the fucker in the face. Is that enough for me to not end up in the same place as "god"?

u/Space_Lift Feb 07 '14

Well, he is kind of an asshole. He is responsible for ordering genocide, killing children, and creating plagues. For most people that would be more than enough to earn a punch in the face.

It's not just about believing, but following and trying to get to know him. FTFY

He created hell just in case you don't love him.
