Oh shit, it just occurred to me that my mother only watches the show on PBS, and I bet she doesn't have as much sex on PBS!

Ah ha! I've not read the books or watched the show, so all of my knowledge and opinions are second-hand.

Apparently she has a lot of sex in the books?

I'm a mostly non-church-going Christian, and I like the reminder that some of the "cool kids" are Christian, too!

I can see it being self-reinforcing, for better or for worse: when people see other people's Christian jokes or faith journeys or whatever on the Toast, they're probably more likely to submit their own for publication.
