Doug Stanhope is the closest thing to a hero to me, he is simply brilliant.
He has Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris ideas about religion but without their absolute moronic state wortship just like Noam Chomsky but without its spineless sold out pseudo-intellecualism, kind of like Stefan Molyneux but without its weird new found misogyny and self importance, just like George Carlin but as abrasive as Hitchens.
okay but as a comedian? like loco says bill hicks is close. but carlin, hicks, stanhope, i don't like feeling proselytized at, it doesn't put me in a laughing mood
It seems to be not very profitable in the long run to play those kind of hands. - Gus Hansen
I love most things Stanhope. Stanhope is pretty open about his residence and partying off the grid in Arizona. Should we figure out an LP meet up there?
In an attempt to add something to the LP community so I can perhaps feel better about myself and my place on this spinning rock of matter: Jim Jeffries is another comedian worth a look.
If you like Hitchens check out some Martin Amis. They were good buddies and Amis has quite a selection of novels that bring me the positive spine tingle and enjoyment through prose, perception, and story. For the youtube viewers, I have not looked into it too much but he has some good stuff on there. First that comes to mind:
"... I feel an intellectual distance from all religions..." is something that is not often said aloud or the positions surrounding that quote have not been defended as well as in this video.
To all the LPers who did not bundle themselves into centralized institutions of superstition this morning and are looking to improve their waking hours at the world theatre, milky way galaxy through reason, truth, knowledge, ethics, and beauty take care. Rock out with your cock out (respectfully). Amen.
