Who Are Your Favorite Godless Comedians?

I've discovered the comedic talents of "Mitchell and Webb" and "Tim Minchin" recently and was interested in other suggestions for godless or skeptical comedians from our members. Any recommendations?

Thank you in advance.

Here are some of my favorite youtube video clips by same:
That Mitchell and Webb Look: Homeopathic A&E
Godless Comedy from That Mitchell and Webb Look
Godless Comedy from That Mitchell and Webb Look - Abraham and Isaac
Good Samaritan - That Mitchell and Webb Look
Storm by Tim Minchin (with text)
Tim Minchin - If You Open Your Mind Too Much...
Tim Minchin - If I Didn't Have You

I would say Eddie Izzard, and George Carlin of course.

eddie izzard vs. creationism

George Carlin - Religion is bullshit.

Jim Jefferies
Lewis Black (although I think he admits to spiritualism - but at least he is anti religion)
George Carlin

Comedian "Bill Hicks" is another.
Bill Hicks on Creationists

Those are some great clips recommended. I hadn't seen that Eddie Izzard piece.

Ricky Gervais is a comedic genius

and the very best Tim Minchin:

I'm a big fan of his too so I'll have to check out the movie you mentioned. He certainly knows how to jab at the weak spots! No mercy...and always that twinkle in his eye.

I'm a George Carlin fan as well. His books are amazing and so subversive! His "10 Commandments" skit is one of my favorites. Condensing the Commandments down to the important bits.

Check out Penn Jillette's (of Penn and Teller) atheist video blog on Crackle.com

Not, necessarily, funny - but excellent stuff.

Oh - and do not forget Lenny Bruce people.

Also, if you search on NPR's "This I Believe" you will hear an awesome essay by him about his belief (or lack thereof).

I was so hoping that someone would mention Penn Jillette, truly one of the greats!
