Islam Vs. Christianity on "Even Stephen"
Add to My Profile | More Videos
With Steve Carell hitting theaters today as a modern-day Noah to Morgan Freeman's God in Universal's biblical gamble Evan Almighty, I thought it would fun to look back on a time when Mr. Carell made a living by playing devil's advocate ... almost literally. In this clip of Carell and Stephen Colbert's recurring Daily Show segment Even Stephvens, the two breakout stars debat Islam vs. Christianity. Colbert, who is a practicing Catholic in his personal life, argues for the Christian God. Carell's response? "Stephen, what part of 'there is no god but Allah and Muhammed is his prophet' don't you understand?"
With all of the effort to sell Evan to faith-based groups, you've got to wonder why this little artifact hasn't sparked a totally overblown backlash.
