- Lenny Bruce

About this Quote

This quote by Lenny Bruce is a funny method of addressing the questionable topic of religious beliefs. He is minimizing the truth that lots of people blame him for the death of Jesus Christ, although he had nothing to do with it. He is indicating that it was a mishap, which it was simply one of those celebrations that left hand. This quote is a method of satirizing the concept that he could have been accountable for the death of Jesus Christ, and it is also a method of demonstrating how outrageous it is to blame somebody for something that took place so long ago. It is a reminder that we must not take ourselves too seriously, which we must be able to make fun of ourselves and our beliefs.
