Couldn't Help Noticing

An online survey of issues, events and ideas

Like Jesus says…

Ian Carmichael / 15th October 2004

A U.S. comedy writer has made this comment in the Sydney Morning Herald today (click here for the article in full) about how smutty the rooms get when all the comedy writers are in a meeting to come up with ideas for the scripts of shows like Friends, Frasier and Sabrina:

“Both rooms could get incredibly filthy,” he says. “Out of context it sounds horrifying and awful and makes no sense. But to do this job well, you have to open your head up—and sometimes what comes spilling out isn't exactly pretty.”

Sounds remarkably like what Jesus said once:

“The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.” (Luke 6:45)
