November 17th- "Praying for Rain"
Allen defends Governor Purdue's redneck rain dance. His only complaint is that the Governor invited persons of other faiths to pray along with him. How silly of every other religion in the world to think their god is God. Reminds me of Joseph Campbell being interviewed:
"Professor Campbell, can you define myth?"
"Yeah, a myth is someone ELSE'S religion."
Isn't it embarassing for Christians to pray for stuff when every study shows that prayer does nothing?
November 18th- "Thank You Power"
Poor Deborah Norville. She had it all- beauty queen, intelligent, graduated with honors in journalism...oh but wait, Jesus forgot to give her a personality. They've tried this bitch in every cotton candy news outlet on TV, and the only job she can hold down is copy-reader-in-chief for Inside Edition. I have to admit she was made for TV journalism though. Not that she's good at it, but you can see why a network would hire her. They love good-looking, superficial cyborgs like Norville that can earnestly cover Lindsey Lohan's rehab stay as if it were Nixon visiting China.
Bonus: Allen says on the Praying for Rain show that "the separation of church and state is a lot of hooey." The Taliban agrees with you, AH.
Also- was it just me or did it sound like AH was kinda hot for Norville?

I never know where Allen is going. Sometimes he's on moral topics and other times he's Mr Political Pundit (yeah we another political show). I like Deborah Norville but Allen is not a good interviewer. He kept interrupting her trying have cute "don't take the spotlight off me" lines. But then again he's a guy who made a living talking and not listening and having a dialogue is much harder than a monologue. We even had the bending of the truth lines as he said "he met her" and it "changed my life" and "we spent an hour together" but the interview was clearly on the telephone. It was clear there was no "meeting" or long time friendship, it was another interview for her on a long tour. Maybe he didn't mean to overstate his case. But it's a late night show on the weekend, not Meet the Press. Maybe it's no big deal. I just thought a pastor would be a little more accurate with facts.
