From the article:

"South Park" co-creator Matt Stone responded sharply in an interview with The Associated Press Monday, saying, "This is 100 percent having to do with his faith of Scientology... He has no problem ? and he's cashed plenty of checks ? with our show making fun of Christians."

Stone told The AP he and co-creator Trey Parker "never heard a peep out of Isaac in any way until we did Scientology. He wants a different standard for religions other than his own, and to me, that is where intolerance and bigotry begin."


Whether its cartoons about Islam in Europe or Scientology here none should be given special priviliges or rights above other religions.

not any more ridiculous than any other religion

in fact watching how scientology formed and the beliefs it holds, it is easy to see how many other religions formed..

I especially liked Matt Stone's response. He didn't beat around the bush... he just laid it all out.

My wife and I just had a good laugh about this - we watched that episode of South Park awhile ago, which I followed with "Watch, Isaac will quit the show!" :D


Another religious hypocrite up in a tizzy, oh teh noes! This would be news if actual talent had left the show (i.e., Stone and Parker) instead of just a voice. Oh well.

Apparently for 9 years he had no idea what the show was about. Fascinating.

The Jedi Code-

Jedi are the guardians of peace in the galaxy.
Jedi use their powers to defend and protect, never to attack others.
Jedi respect all life, in any form.
Jedi serve others rather than ruling over them, for the good of the galaxy.
Jedi seek to improve themselves through knowledge and training.

You seem to have fallen prey to the Dark side and have not yet realized

The power of the Force does not come without a price, for with these abilities come great temptation to misuse them, and emotions such as hate, anger, and fear can cause a Jedi to be overcome by the Dark Side of the Force. The Dark Side is the easier path and at first can seem more powerful. In the words of Yoda, it is not actually more powerful, but only quicker and easier to learn, and thus more seductive. When one turns to the Dark Side, there is little hope of recovery

There is hope, a few Jedi have came back from the Dark side
?May the Force be with you.?

;)

Kind of a given that Hayes would leave the show after the Scientology episode...don't know if many of you read the recent article on Scientology in Rolling Stone, but it mirrors the Time magainze article from many years ago...as a member of Scientology, Hayes is almost required to suppress or distance himself from any of its critics.

Yes it is hypocritical of him, given that South Park has managed to attack or offend nearly everyone and everything...which is why it is probably one of my favorite shows.

"South Park" co-creator Matt Stone responded sharply in an interview with The Associated Press Monday, saying, "This is 100 percent having to do with his faith of Scientology... He has no problem ? and he's cashed plenty of checks ? with our show making fun of Christians."
This is why I respect Parker and Stone...I know their brand of humor is not for everyone, but I admire how they quite aggressively and often rather bluntly come out and say what is on their mind, often poking fun at our overly sensitive and politically correct society in the process.

They manage to take any hot button issue, boil it down to its most fundamental stupidity, and expose the hypocricy and idiocy from every angle.

Cool. I'll use that next time I'm at a party and to toss out some useless piece of trivia. :)

Actually its about a person who didn't mind cashing in on ridiculing religion as long as it wasn't his.

Time for Chef to die a terrible death... I am sure they are plotting up a Cheftology episode as we speak right now.

This really pisses me off.. I liked Chef and his hilarious sexual overtones about everything.

...And he's black:confused:

And they make jokes about jews, christians, white people being really stupid, fat people, gays, and sex change operations so whats really your point other then trying to make them all about making fun of the black race. They make fun of every race and religion.
