As Pale as Snow: The Publicly Private Faith of Comedian Jim Gaffigan

In a recent episode of The Jim Gaffigan Show, Gaffigan (playing a fictional version of himself) is outed as a Christian when a picture of him holding a Bible lands on the front page of The Huffington Post. Not knowing how the world will react to his faith, Gaffigan grows paranoid. “The perception is that people who believe in God are stupid,” he says to his wife Jeannie during one scene. “I don’t want to get involved in the culture war.”
