Jay Mohr demonstrates that while it's difficult finding people who make Fred Phelps look intelligent

It can be done. For the record, I spent the first 45 years of my life oblivious to the fact that Jay Mohr exists. But apparently, wanting to get his name in the news, he decided to jump on the Bill Maher bandwagon and spew some good old Nazi-humor at Christians. By now, most have heard of Maher's Phelps-inspired rant against Tim Tebow. Nothing new, original, or different there. The earth's orbit around the sun is less predictable than Maher's tired old routine. But then Mr. Mohr jumps in and tries to add, well, something to the dialogue.  He - hold on for it - calls Christians 'idiots' for wanting to boycott HBO over Maher's comments:

"Yeah, that would be great Christians, except there’s nothing to boycott, there’s no commercials, you idiot," he chuckled. "‘Let me tell you something, HBO,’" he continued, as if he was someone boycotting the company, "‘I’m not buying any products you advertise. I’m not drinking Minute Maid orange juice, I’m not going to use the tricky ladder– the three-in-one ladder you advertise.’"
"There are no commercials you moron, it’s HBO Christians!" he yelled. "And I’m speaking as a Christian."

The funny part? Nobody is actually calling for a 'boycott' of HBO in that sense. They are simply calling on people to do like I do, and not subscribe to a cable network wishing for a return to pre-Christian barbarism. I never took a cable package that included HBO, and have no intention of doing so now. But so off the wall vacant was his rant, even the writer of the news article is left wondering:

"It’s unclear what boycott Mohr was specifically referencing or why he said Christians were going after HBO advertisers. The movement across Twitter and other places has referenced boycotting HBO in general, not necessarily a call for a movement against HBO sponsors."

But then, the general audience of shows like Maher's, and apparently Mohr's, doesn't exactly lend itself to sweating over such things as facts and reality. Some sex, drugs, and the ability to abort babies for better orgasms is about all they probably care to process.

FWIW, his little 'I'm speaking as a Christian' is about as worthless as anything can be worthless. Assuming it's true, and I'll take him at his word (being the only evidence I can imagine accepting for assuming it's true), it's more of an embarrassment than anything, and another reminder that it's not just the Fred Phelps of the world who make a mockery of religion in general, and Christianity in particular.  And not only that, but making it look like the domain of idiots when he goes off on a rant about something that isn't even happening. Sigh.
