Ricky’s Twitter Battle With Christians

You think the producers of next month’s Golden Globes care that their host, Ricky Gervais, as Christmas looms, is engaged in a Twitter war with religious fundamentalists? They love the publicity! Gervais has been an atheist since the age of 8, and has made no secret of that fact, so why are the hard-core religious folk getting all upset that he does things like posing as Jesus on a cross for a magazine cover? When you react postally to such Ricky antics, you just fill him full of glee. All the same, I wish Ricky would zip it around Christmas. Let people have a chance to enjoy their shopping and their eggnog for a minute. There will be plenty of time for irreverence in the new year.
