Are all comedians Jewish and/or Catholic?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It seems to me.... there are no protestant comedians.
Must not be a comedic religion.

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 12-08-2004, 10:13 PM

Haha that is what it seems like. Maybe, like...just a larger portion are.

MaryElizabeth · 12-08-2004, 10:15 PM

Maybe that's why I'm so funny. I'm Catholic.

However, Cashodeen's Catholic and not funny. Oh well.

Chambers · 12-08-2004, 10:16 PM

I'm Catholic, and I think I'm funny.

Just seems like more Jews and Catholics are comfortable using their religion as a source of comedy.

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 12-08-2004, 10:22 PM

I'm Catholic, too...well...raised that way...and I'm really into comedy and being funny. Maybe it's in our blood?

That's just Mary's attempt at trying to be funny. Failure.

I, Katie, am one of the most comical and witty Catholics around.

Seems that way! But they sure are funny, huh?

Penny Lane · 12-08-2004, 10:35 PM

I am protestant(Lutheran) and it seems that a lot of them(protestants) are way too uptight! If they would loosen up a bit life would be so much more enjoyable!

It's funny, though. Isn't Catholicism supposed to be the more uptight religion (correct me, I might be full of it) and all of the kids raised strictly Catholic turn out to be totally opposite from how they were raised.

Barwars,

You titled this thread "Are all comedians Jewish and/or Catholic??."
And so I ask you, how can someone be both Jewish AND Catholic?

Tonyd · 12-08-2004, 10:44 PM

Around here the Protestants are mostly fundamentalists and very strict, so the Catholics are more liberal. Also a lot of Catholics are Irish, which helps their sense of humor.

I think he meant it like...Are all comedians Jewish, are all comedians Catholic or are all comedians Jewish or Catholic?

Mmhmm, majority of the people here are Irish or Italian...which counts for the majority of the people here being Catholic.
