Howard Stern is empty shock value... Concur ... and he's totally unlistenable (or unwatchable). Even Madonna wasn't pure shock. The woman had a lovely voice (IMO). She and South Park are in the same category ... real talent, but overly dependant on shock value, to their own detriment.

What kind of society would we be if everyone ridiculed the beliefs of religions they did not practice. Been in the Religion Forum lately?

Unless South Park dared to say "Happy Holidays!", rather than "Merry Christmas!". Then we'd be demanding for gov't intervention to stop that outrageous act!! SP has already done an episode on that, when Kyle's mom wanted all Christian references out of the school during Christmas.

After going through all these posts, I have a funny feeling the next group they'll make fun of is the fight between 'Southpark conservatives' and the 'religious right'.. Maybe a WWE type fight?

"It's the same episode where Cartman proves that if you put food in your a$$, you will cr@p out your mouth."
Which also threw Martha Stewart under the bus, as I recall!

"Don't forget that in South Park, Catholics go to Hell because their's isn't the right religion."
I believe it was the Mormons who have the right beliefs and the only ones allowed in heaven.
Which was a direct 'apology' of sorts for the hilarious satire of the Mormon faith from an earlier episode.

First off I read the title to this and my first thought was, "And.....".
It's SOUTH PARK!!! Duh...
If you don't like it don't watch it. If you don't like your kids watching it, then pay more attention to your kids.

Maybe they read the US Bureau of the Census study on how the long-term success rate of AA is no better than no treatment at all. Tell that to the millions who are alive today because of a 12-step program. And then go on to explain how the 12-step strategy has been adopted to overcome just about every addiction from crack cocaine to sex. It must be because it doesn't work.

Folks who watch South Park expecting to not get offended, need to get their heads checked.Same types that when watching porn movies get offended when they see intercourse performed.

Absolutely! Atheists, witches, lefty moral relativists. All have been skewered by the show.
My favorite recurring character is Mr Liberal Douchbag. Further, I thought Mr. Hand and Mr. Slave going to PC camp because they hate homosexuals was the classic "reversal of roles" in the writing of satire.

Perfect attitude. I'm fine with people who didn't find it funny. People have different senses of humor, and you can't expect them to find everything funny.
What I'm not particularly fond of in this thread is the people who are so offended and surprised that something like this would come out of South Park. Some of the "I'M OFFENDED!" posts here make me wonder if I accidentally clicked over to DU.

Yes, they insult a little piece of Roman Catholicism that should be called into question, albeit not so rudely. When they insulted Mormonism their message was more along the lines of "can you believe anybody is stupid enough to believe this nonsense?"
They insult the parts that are ripe for it.
