only those who have faith in and believe will be saved. all atheists are wasting their God-given lives. sorry, you are in vain. only Christians will be saved. You have a choice to serve Jesus or Satan. There is no other ground.

If anything George was a humanist; regardless of his political understanding, the real testimony and legacy of his comedic genius was that he was there to enlighten you, make you become more of a critical thinker in regards to beliefs, values, social behaviour and to make you laugh of course. Just because someone doesnt have the same religion or beliefs than you doesn't mean that there going to burn in eternity. Most of the comments on here i try to read them with unbias but when it comes down

Hey globetrekker2, I would hate to have the narrow minded beliefs you have, cause believing in the invisible man in the sky, and the devil whos poking with a pitch fork is as immature as any fairy tale you can write up. A person can still live a deep spiritual life, which i think even George could understand, but when that belif is pushed to the vengeful and hateful God, those only rewards those who believed in him its quite absurd.

george was a good comedian, but his political positions where even more comedic, honestly george just cause you can make people laugh doesn't mean you're a social scientist and that we came to your shows to hear that rather than your jokes. I want comedy, i don't give a shti what you think of politics. that aside, rip george carlin

my dear immature young punk, you just contracticted yourself yes heaven, no heaven, make up your mind. You don't know nothing. I am the great Know It All and I know everything. You had better repent before God. I know George is screaming, I can see him now being stuck with a pitchfork in the rear end.
