I wasn't referring to his 'war on Christmas' segments, but to his Christmas special. I don't have access to the lyrics, as I'm on my work connection at the moment and it's blocking everything, but I seem to recall him saying in the final song, "If you believe in nothing, then you're just a sorry nothing, And if you think I'm just being funny, then you've got another think coming," or something to that effect.

He also interviewed Larry Johnson on the show, and since then has been mocking the cryonics movement because of the lies perpetrated by Mr. Johnson.

I can believe Colbert is a Penn&Teller-esque anti-cryonics type, but his Christmas special was definitely tongue in cheek.
