Few things have managed to be as consistently funny (OK, minus that "Homer Vs Dignity" episode, but let's just pretend that never happened) and relevant as The Simpsons, which aired its 20th season premiere last night on Fox. In honor of The Simpsons' birthday, here are some of the best religion-centric clips in the show's history. Sadly, it was really hard to find any of the Krusty/Rabbi Krustofsky clips on Hulu.com, so if anyone has better luck or a different link, feel free to email it to us or link to it in a comment.
Editor's note: My ex-boyfriend once told me that the Simpsons character I most resembled was Jessica Lovejoy. I don't think it was a compliment.

Did you see this weeks episode where Krusty's monkey desecrates the torah? I laughed so hard I had tears running down my face. I love Krusty. He is my favorite television Yid.

Not included is my favorite Simpons religion line ever: when Homer tries to give a peanut to Apu's Ganesh statue and Apu says "Please do not offer my god a peanut!"
Poor Apu never gets a break. In the episode where Homer almost burns down the house and his neighbors rescue him, Reverend Lovejoy is talking about the people who saved him, pointing, "Christian [points to Flanders], Jew [Krusty], and miscellaneous [Apu]." Apu then says "Hindu! There are 700 million of us!"
