Week 2 Post B

Dear Mr. Colbert,


I have not gotten much further in your book, but I have read more about your thoughts on religion. Although it is quite hilarious, the intent of your book, when it is looked at critically and literally you are not politically correct, if I may. Your bluntness and straight up assumptions and stereotypes about religion are wise statements, wise as in bold as in you are bold to make some of these statements and show your disregard for other religions. Although, I will say even though this may sound contradicting to what I've just said you seem to be excepting of all religions in real life, and show a hint of it in your book. I do understand that you say these things for the entertainment of your reader, it is just very interesting when looked at with all seriousness.
Your book is such a silly book that it almost wants me to have a moment, a paragraph of seriousness. Your humor is so clever and is in every sentence that it is almost overwhelming and the reader almost needs a break from all the humor and references you make. It is quite enjoyable in small doses though.
Besides the tone of your book, there is quite a level of creativity and a relief from all the typical, standard books that are written. I am really looking forward to reading about your opinions on other hot topics, religion is not my favorite, but you are making it a bit more enjoyable.

Sincerely,
Grace
