Not to beat a dead horse

Fellow blogmate atlmalcontent posted similar criticism of Comedy Central caving to Islam.

"So Bill O'Reilly was right, sort of. Not that I'm buying the alleged "war on Christians," but there's certainly been a surrender to Muslim extremists. "South Park" made that point brilliantly last night, via a mock Islamofascist propaganda film showing Jesus using the American flag as a toilet (which was preceded by a blacked-out image of Mohammed handing "Family Guy" a helmet topped with a dead salmon).

Homer: "It works on so many levels."

So it's okay to disrespect one religion but not another? Comedy Central says yes, as they've banned any depiction of Mohammed on their network. But Christ taking a shit ... big deal. Jerry Falwell hasn't threatened to kill us, so screw 'em."

South Park did air a depiction of Muhammed in July 2001 on its "Super Best Friends" Episode, without any controversy.

The episode's synopsis is here.
