Comedian Larry David is under attack from critics who say he pushed the mocking of religion and Christian belief in miracles over the edge in the latest episode of his HBO series "Curb Your Enthusiasm," which the cable network defended as "playful."

Newsweak caused rioting with false reports of korans being flushed down the toilet.

Christians are raised/taught to forgive and all the bashers know this. We don’t cut peoples heads off like muslims or behave irrationally otherwise the bashers would then say we are un-Christian

It's not simply "mocking of religion"

It's a case of a godless secular jew with hatred of Christians, who was allowed to peddle his hatred to the masses.

His peers in Hollywood (writers, producers, etc.) obviously did not have a problem with it, and thought it was a good idea to put the scene into the show.

Sadly for him, America is not wholly Godless yet, and they still maintain a vestige of a moral compass. Folks who do not have a god do not have an unchanging, immutable moral compass, no matter what their religion may be.

I’d rather cold-cock him then urinate on him.

Some enterprising techie should take the video and alter it so it shows him urinating on the Koran.

Then post it on Utube and get the Muslim world involved.

Too bad for Mr. David that I don't buy ANY of his cruddy products.

Amazing how much gets done once the TV gets tossed out.

We moved into our house just as Hurrican Ike was waning. A lot of stuff was nonoperational. No cable, no internet, not even a phone landline.

I am a lot more productive!

When was this story covered by CNN? MSNBC? Rachel Maddow? Chris Matthews? Ed Shultz? Did Keith Olbermann get all bent out of shape over this? Just wondering...

Well then, let's hope he "playfully" pees on the Koran. What are the odds? :-)

Who in heck watches this show? I was told by a friend that I ‘had’ to see it a couple of years ago, so I rented a dvd. Couldn’t get through the second episode. I didn’t know it was still on.

I’m pretty sure the first time I heard of this show was when I posted the article. Maybe there was a previous reference and I tossed it from the memory bank.
