Satan, Free Will and the Gospel According to Stephen Colbert
Warning to those with delicate ears. SC cusses at the end of this video - though it has been bleeped.
A couple of comments about this interview:
First - I love Zimbardo's reaction once he realizes that Colbert just knocked him to the floor with a upper cut to the jaw.
Second - The crowd. You heard a couple of yelps when the subject was first introduced. I really think the crowd was just as shocked as Zimbardo was at Colbert's passionate defense of true good vs. evil.
Third - Where did Zimbardo get this crap? Satan rebelled when God created Adam and put him in the garden to show God that he was wrong? Any casual research of Satan's rebellion would have shown a much different story.
Fourth - How much was lost when Colbert cussed at the end? Did it change your view of him or the interview?

Colbert seems to know the truth...and was pretty smooth about confronting each issue brought up by Zimbardo...but no mention of the "J" word...you know the one.
The wirty dord at the end didn't bother me either, but would have if my kids would have been around.
Please note the title of the blog, "Satan, Free Will and...", but look at the URL, "www....stan-free-will-and". It took the "a" out of Satan. Is that spooky or what?
You didn't know that Satan's real name is Stan? Yeah, one of the Hebrew writers 4,000 years ago misheard God and wrote Satan instead of Stan. Little known Bible fact that you probably didn't learn in quizzing!
No, I only had my right contact lense in and saved it as "Stan..." Funny stuff.
