Religulous Edit Meaning

1.

The ridiculous character of so many religious beliefs.

The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in all humans because a women made from a rib was convinced by a talking snake in a magical garden to eat the fruit from a magical tree, which made an invisible man who lives in the sky very angry, appears to be an extraordinarily religulous superstition.

KING: "Religulous."

MAHER: That's ridiculous.
