They shoot Mormons, don't they?

[Saundra Duffy]

No LDS ping list remains as far as I can determine. The Mormons have pretty much either been banned or banned themselves from FR. So the anti Mormons can rip and tear to their hearts’ desire.

[darkwing104]

Its Trey Parker and Matt Stone, they rip on everybody...What else do you expect?

[arderkrag]

Second, in a pluralistic society they have targeted a group already misunderstood and discriminated against.

They preach polygamy, baptism for the dead, a ridiculous set of dietary laws, and that their prophet is the one true prophet, all from extrabiblical sources, the use of which is forbidden by scripture.

And I misunderstanding anything here?

ALSO: This bears repeating ad infinitum:

Mormonism and Islam

[apillar]

Well if it upsets the Mormans that much, all they have to do is send a couple death threats to the creators, that's all it took from the Muslims and Southpark hasn't touched either Islam or Muhammad with a ten foot pole since then...

I don’t know this play, but I don’t consider LDS a minor religion. They are akin to Islam in that they practice polygamy where permitted, have huge families, enforce patriarchy, aggressively though not violently convert, and both faiths began with prophets, Moroni and Mohannad.

The play writers also did “Jesus Christ Super Star”, didn’t they? I didn’t see that either, but I saw “he movie, “The Passion of the Christ”. I unequivocally recommend the latter.

I've always found Southpark’s treatment of Mormon to be relatively mild and balanced (by Southpark standards). Basically, Mormon's are portrayed as decent, honorable, well meaning people who just happen to have some rather loopy ideas.

I don’t have TV, but I’ve seen the South Park Mormon episode. Knowing what I do about Mormonsim I was amazed at how candid (and accurate) they were about the stuff many people - and even mormons - don’t know about the roots of their own religion.

What is more interesting is that many people I work with who hate South Park, know of that episode and also like it.

I’m not familiar with this play, but just like a Romney candidacy, anything that can get people to start asking, “what does mormonism teach, anyway?” is a really good thing.

They shoot Mormons, don't they?

No, but mormons shot defenseless men, women and children in the past didn't they.

What an entrance after your little hiatus SD. And start right off the bat with the victim card.

[Grunthor]

Matt and Trey pick on everyone. Not everyone can handle it. When you follow a “prophet” like John Smith, such as he is, you better have some thick skin.

[I still care]

IMHO, the left is simply indulging its hatred of Christianity by picking on a group that they know they can get by with it.

It’s the whole, “When they came for the Jews” thing.

We know Mormons are not traditional Christians, but the left doesn’t view it like that. They worship Jesus, they are a target. The libs get their jollies off it.

We have the Kingfish and Calhoun in DC Now.

Oh, Sandy. If you don’t get the difference between anti-moron (which there is not) and anti-moronISM, it is you who has the problem.
Tell me this, for over 150 years morons did not want to be called Christian and mormonISM did not want to be referred as Christianity but in the last few years mormons have demand to be called Christian and mormonISM has demanded to be called Christianity.
Why?

[Elsie]

They inflict pain and mockery on those already despised...

Oh come on writer; the MORMONs just LOVE to be a victim!

[Graybeard58]

Oh poor widdle me, I’m so persecuted.
