Jack Black, Maya Rudolph, Neil Patrick Harris and a slew of other celebrities give a comedic performance in "Prop 8: The Musical."

Designed to look like a school play at Sacramento Community College, the Funny Or Die sketch has a group of politicians, led by Allison Janney and John C. Reilly, fighting against those in favor of gay marriage, led by Margaret Cho and Andy Richter.

After a Westside Story-style of singing argument, Jack shows up in the play portraying Jesus Christ! "Friend, to me it seems you pick and choose," Jack as Jesus sings. "Well please choose love instead of hate -- besides your nation was built on separation of church and state."

Neil Patrick also shows his support singing there's "money to be made" from gay marriage.

The musical sketch ends with everyone singing together, "Gay marriages will save the economy!"
