Comedy Central might censor every image of the Prophet Muhammad on "South Park," yet the network is developing a whole animated series around Jesus Christ.
Jesus-south-park As part of the network's upfront presentation to advertisers (full slate here), the network is set to announce "JC," a half-hour show about Christ wanting to escape the shadow of his "powerful but apathetic father" and live a regular life in New York City.
In the show, God is preoccupied with playing video games while Christ, "the ultimate fish out of water," tries to adjust to life in the big city.
"In general, comedy in purist form always makes some people uncomfortable," said Comedy Central's head of original programming Kent Alterman.

I will definitely have to email them on that one. Would they allow a cartoon series on Muhammad?

Anyone up for “sharia for Christ”? We know Comedy Central are cowards so all it takes is a threatening email to cause them to censor themselves. Pretty funny, huh?
To: Zakeet
*Sigh*
Is there even any point to complaining about this stuff? The last days are here. Get right or get left.

Warning! This show is NOT being produced by Matt Stone and Trey Parker despite CC’s use of South Park’s version of Jesus to promote it.

I doubt they will come to a good end, and it won’t be because God needs our help to deal with it.
