Comedians joking about religion. And upsetting facts

A comedian distorting facts.... Do I really have to mention exactly how a joke is formed? This guy is an idiot.

What facts did Eddie Izzard distort? Aside from what was obviously meant to be part of a joke... If anyone thinks Henry the Eighth sent a wife into outer space they would have to be complete and utter morons.... On the other hand,.... anyone who could get offended likely believes in a talking snake....never mind.
