This one is especially topical:
Religions that their parents don't belong to...
Religions that their parents don't belong to...
White people will often say they are “spiritual” but not religious. Which usually means that they will believe any religion that doesn’t involve Jesus.
Popular choices include Buddhism, Hinduism, Kabbalah and, to a lesser extent, Scientology. A few even dip into Islam, but it’s much more rare since you have to give stuff up and actually go to Mosque.
Mostly they are into religion that fits really well into their homes or wardrobe and doesn’t require them to do very much.

He's mostly making fun of affluent, white liberals more specifically. Since I live in Madison, WI and am surrounded mostly by affluent, white liberals it's especially hilarious. I'll post the ones that apply to me, minus the pretension (I would hope).
