34. “If you take the bible literally and Mary is the mother of Jesus and Jesus is the lamb of God, does that mean Mary had a little lamb?”

GEORGE CARLIN DID NOT say this

“If you take the bible literally and Mary is the mother of Jesus and Jesus is the lamb of God, does that mean Mary had a little lamb?”

Cute line, but it seems that George Carlin never said it. It doesn’t show up on any of his albums, HBO specials, or books. As for who came up with it, I don’t know. Doing some quick searches on the web, I found out that the quote is at least as old as 2003, with no attribution to Carlin until much later. It could very well have been the Yahoo Answers user who thought of it; some really witty religion-bashing stuff gets posted there every minute. I should know, because I used to be a regular there.
