I would be lying if you never brought up your issue against them spoofing religions you favor. Your grudge that you continue to maintain is the one that proves it. This is a case of... an eye for an eye. If they can do it, so can we. Isn't it?

Also, what world do you live in where a person can't enjoy both Judaism and Christianity? For the record, I enjoy both, not that I owe you an explanation. Just the same, I have no problem with South Park going right after these religions along with everything else in the world they address.

So really, you've got nothing to offer here.
You don't owe me any explanation. Our posts reveal virtually everything. Having said that, it is great you "enjoy" two religions, and probably hate and dislike all others (definitely hate the third of the trio of Abrahamic religions, as far as I can tell).

thats what i wanna do!



they won't tolerate you.

so you're saying an offensive show shouldn't offend certain people? you're afraid of the muslims, admit it. you're a coward
The left insists only one one way tolerance and respect, and completely ignore the direspect Islam has for other religions.

Firing someone is a bit different than FIRING bullets at someone or beheading someone because you mocked their sky fairy.

TVs have an off switch. If someone doesn't like the show, don't watch it.

I for one, will never give in to terrorism.
Yeah. Imagine if mormons threatened to kill Parker and stone over the Joeseph Smith episode, which mocked Mormonism. SP hasn't even mocked Islam, they just had mohammed depicted once.. Yet, death threats.

"The struggle for world domination will be fought entirely between us, between Germans and Jews" - Hitler

That quotes point at two things:
1- Ultra nationalism
2- Hatred for a particular sect of people, based on their religion.

Free speech is the whole thing, the whole ball game. Free speech is life itself.

DO jews go blowing things up if they have a gripe?

If you offend a Christian, Jew, or a Muslim, whom do you have the most to fear from? Why?

I know. And I assumed you weren't being hypocritical about freedom of speech, and that you agreed that freedom of speech doesn't protect you from its consequences.

OK, try and follow along here.
I brought the other religions up to YOU.
Not for my benefit, but for YOURS.

To give you an opportunity to provide us with some similar posts you surely made when the show went after other religions. You must have done that, right? You didn't just wait until they spoofed this one to decide to speak out.

When you have to use a word like "probably" to declare someone's hate for something, it only proves that you have nothing to offer. You say I "probably" hate all religions other than Judaism and Christianity. I say you're not "probably" wrong, you are definitely wrong.

You "probably" have brought some decent things to the table in other threads on this forum. This definitely isn't one of them.
