“Here in the UK, we've now got an evangelical television channel - it's the kind of thing that will be very familiar to everyone in the United States, especially if you've ever turned on your TV set on a Sunday morning, and seen one holy man after another, urging you to send money so that Jesus can buy a new cadillac. Apparently, Jesus can't save the world until he's been properly kitted out with a million-dollar mansion, and a private jet - some small print in the Gospels that we must have missed.” IfsMenWorldKindStatesJesusUnitedMorningMillionsUnited StatesTelevisionTvsHolyDollarsFamiliarSundayPrintMillion DollarsJetSave The WorldEvangelicalMansionsSunday MorningCadillacsHoly ManPrivate JetSmall Print Author:Pat Condell
“One night I couldn't sleep. It was like 2:00 in the morning. I was thinking, 'What can I do?' I'm watching TV. I'm like, 'Let me do something else.' I'm not going to fall asleep for a few hours. What are my hobbies? There was the masturbation option. I skipped that because just knowing my kids are down the hall I felt psychotic. So, I went with watching more TV. I couldn't come up with anything. I was going, 'God, read a book.' Then I was like this, 'Where do I keep the books?'

“If you're a prostitute, this is your day: You party, you have customers until four or six in the morning, then you sleep.
