Anyone watch last night's episode?
I hope this show sticks around for a while. I find it totally hilarious.
Absolute faith has been shown, consistently, to breed intolerance. And intolerance, history teaches us, again and again, begets violence.
---------------------------------- The duty of a patriot in this time and place is to ask questions, to demand answers, to understand where our nation is headed and why. If the answers you get do not suit you, or if they frighten you, or if they anger you, it is your duty as a patriot to dissent. Freedom does not begin with blind acceptance and with a flag. Freedom begins when you say 'No.'

I've got them all taped on the TIVO but haven't had the time to see them yet. Maybe tonight or tomorrow.

I have them recorded on Replay also, but haven't viewed them yet. The seemingly endless "poking fun" at various religions gets boring because it's always Christians. You don't have to see the show if you're a Presbyterian and yet another show casts your faith in less than glowing terms. "Look honey, he get's to help people while being addicted to vicodin and seeing Jesus! We can put a copy next to the show where the priest comes back to God and repents raping the 4 boys!"
Why can't we have:
"Everybody Loves Mukbar", Mukbar and Mohammed are perturbed to find the infidel they beheaded was really a member of the Faith police working under cover.
Compare Christians with Gays on TV. It seems Hollywood wants everyone to think every 3rd person is gay, has great decorating sense and is usually a brilliant neurosurgeon struggling with his concience as he operates on the skinhead who murdered his partner who was on his way to volunteer at the clinic.
Do you think gays would be critical "without watching" if instead you had:
"Hondo does Dallas" Hondo must get a prized family heirloom engraved for his betrothal ceremony. The problem? Finding which of the 6 guys he had sex with behind the Dairy Queen dumpster has stolen it!
