We are clay to be molded. Unfortunately, Mr. Carlin didn’t allow God into his life to mold him into anything more than the lump he started out as. Yes, he had a God-given talent and he wasted it instead of using it to glorify God which is the purpose of any talent God sees fit to bless us with.

If you know in your bible where that comes from then read the chapter...and ponder on it. Hyper judgemental religious ideologues find not the wisdom in God's words that Job did.
