I like humor; I love comedy. I thoroughly enjoy a comedian who can make me laugh loud and long, interweaving the weird things that we call “life”, and make us say, “It’s so true! \u0631\u0647\u0627\u0646 \u0645\u0628\u0627\u0634\u0631<\/a> ”<\/p>\n

You are probably aware that comedian, George Carlin, died earlier this summer. Whether or not his death<\/strong> affected you is immaterial. The fact that his life<\/strong> affected you, even if you didn’t like his comedy, is unarguable.<\/p>\n

Paul Asay, from Focus on the Family’s<\/a> “PluggedIn Online<\/a>” website, has written an excellent article<\/a> on Carlin’s comedic impact, much of which was defined by his “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television” or “Seven Dirty Words” routine.<\/p>\n

I highly recommend that you read his well-thought-through perspective here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Carlin made a huge impact on our nation. There were many times I thought he was just downright hilarious. I hope that I can make as big of an impact for God’s Kingdom<\/strong> that Carlin did for those infamous words (one of which, by the way, was in the Bible<\/a> 300+ years before George Carlin was born!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
