You Are All Diseased (Eardrum, 1999) by George Carlin

Carlin's most famous routine is obviously "Seven Words You Can't Say on Television," but I think another one that he will be remembered for is "There is No God."  In this particular routine, he logically explains many faults in organized religion.  But Carlin, of course, puts his own cynical twist on it and makes his criticisms smart and funny.  Other shorter bits that are very strong are "Angels" and "TV Tonight."  His complaints about kids and airport security are also noteworthy.  Overall, it's not Carlin's best album.  However, it is definitely in the upper echelon of them.
