Lewis Black on NPR

Lewis Black was on NPR's Talk of the Nation (a call-in show) a week ago and I just got around to listening to it. It's an incredible interview, listen to it here.

Black was on to promote his new book Me Of Little Faith so he spends most of the time riffing on religion. He gets heckled by a guy unfamiliar with his work, talks about the death of his brother, drops tons of anecdotes and of course his classic pissy humor. He gets asked his opinion on Scientology and, this is the best line, says "They're insane! There's no ifs ands or buts, they're crazy, they're lunatics. All you gotta do is go to Wikipedia and read what they believe - how the world started. Wow. They make all other organized religions look like... science."
