Aren’t you missing the point if you are calling them cowards, but also asking them to leave Jesus alone? It is all or nothing.
“Aren’t you missing the point if you are calling them cowards, but also asking them to leave Jesus alone? It is all or nothing.”
Mr. Shoop, really you are correct. But I guess my point was that either they are cowards or they will have a change of heart over mocking religious figures, they really can’t have it both ways.
Now I really don’t watch South Park that much. And I censored them myself with that awful Christmas poo episode, that is to say I turned the TV off.
But I really haven’t seen Jesus portrayed badly on that show, although He may have been.
And here is another annoying thing about the Mohammed sensitivity. Mohammed was a real, historical person.
In fact he has been portrayed many times in art. Sometimes negatively, sometimes positively.
This reminds me of the dreadful Christmas window display done at Barney’s in NYC some years ago. They showed Hello Kitty dressed up in S&M gear as the Virgin Mary. Of course the Catholic League had a cow over it, understandably.
But I remember thinking, the Virgin Mary can handle this cr*p, but why abuse poor little Hello Kitty in this way?
Here’s the distinction, of course, no death threats were issued by the Catholic League.
