This Christian mocks The Simpsons by having never watched it.

The Simpsons used to mock nearly everything.

The Simpsons' crew has even less intestinal fortitude than South Park, and SP has been pretty quiet about a certain religious group.

The Simpsons mock everybody, it is part of their “charm”
Don’t take it personally

Simpsons were GREAT. Up until around 2005-6. Actually they started to suck after Bush 43 took office. Before that you had guys like John Swartzwelder writing a good chunk of the episodes. He’s the pro liberty writer who left when the whole series took a left turn.

As a Christian, it really doesn’t bother me if the Simpsons makes fun of Christians.

What bothers me is that they are terrified to make fun of Muslims. Come on! Mohammad had a girlfriend who looked like a goat. Because she was a goat. Slavery! Rape! Domestic abuse! This is all comedy gold! The Simpsons could really get a lot of laughs out of Islam if they just showed the world what a pathetic stupid religion it is.

But they’re afraid, aren’t they?

They just make fun of Christians because they know — they KNOW — we are not crazy trouble-makers. We are a force for good in the world. That is why they ridicule us.

Cowards won’t because they know they could get their heads cut off.

They yanked the Apu character because they decided he was offensive to Indians. Yet Ned Flanders lives on.

The Simpsons has been on TV for 30 years. It was smart and funny for about 10.

I’d rather live next to Ned Flanders than Homer Simpson.

Anyone who would rather live next to wreck-less Homer, has a death wish.

I’m a Christian and could laugh at something truly funny directed at me.

But that crap just ain’t funny.

Yep. Being mocked by the crooked philandering politician (Ted Kennedy caricature) is a badge of honor.
