Frankly, most of my friends hold very different political beliefs. It's just a funny thing in this country that supposedly you can't sit down and have dinner and enjoy another person's company if you don't have the same beliefs. It's ridiculous.

This is a free country, and nobody should be criticized for their political beliefs. We're all allowed to have our opinions.

Atrocities are human nature - they don't have political beliefs, color, creed or anything like that. They just happen, it's human.

Of course, my own political beliefs inform the ideas I come up with.

How can you analyse what is funny? What's funny to one isn't funny to another... What's funny to you is a personal thing.

I think there's a difference when you make fun of yourself and your own behavior, and when you dishonor or disrespect Christ. If you're making a mockery of Christ is one thing. But if you're just joking about human foibles and weaknesses, I think that's perfectly acceptable.
