It culminated in him coming home and vomitting into the anus of Jesus. (In fact it was a lot more laboured and gross than that.)<BR/><BR/>The story lasted for nearly half the show and was not actually all that funny. It was built on shock value, to get revenge on the Christians who he said had bullied him about Jerry Springer and to emphasize that he would not let them silence him.<BR/><BR/>His double standards could not be more apparent.<BR/><BR/>Peter ReavyPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10865582871564415635noreply@blogger.com
