Islamic web-site "threatens" South Park creators

shiiiit from this thread you'd think muslims are the only religious extremists. crazy christians bomb abortion clinics and commit genocides (some fairly recent...take what happened in the former yugoslavia). i'd say it just goes to prove that people who want to kill will find a reason to kill.
 
Well see the "moderate" muslims are supposed to "take back" their religion. Of course that hasn't happened and probably won't for the next 50-100 years.

Contrary to what you believe, the moderates are doing their best to take back religion. Only problem is that you don't hear them much because the western media consistently (often intentionally) ignored them so they are waging a battle on two fronts, the extremists that hijacked their religion and the media that prefer to demonize them for the sake of boosting ratings. Also, many of U.S.'s islamic allies (including Pakistan and Afghanistan) are fighting against extremists and their actions alone speak volumes more than you would want to hear the moderates denounce them.
 
This really grinds my gears. I watched it last week and thought it was hilarious. Just look at how Matt and Tray have portrayed Jesus in South Park over the years. You don’t get Christians threatening to kill them. But Comedy Central has even now had to beep out the name Muhammad. Well I’m sorry when things like this happen. It proves we are living in fear of religious terrorists. Is it not giving in to them and letting them win? A free world my arse!!! :2 cents:

Yeah, that bleeping out Mohamed's name when we all heard it last week was so silly I thought it was a joke at first. Buddha snorting coke and Jesus on the internet porn (I wonder if he was on Freeones, lol) just shows the lunacy of hardline muslims. Everybody and everyone shouldn't be above being made fun of.

Or Jesus erotically washing himself in front of a gay baby on Family Guy. Or Larry David pissing on a crucifix. Or Bill Maher calling the Vatican a gay fashion show.

These violent and/or threatening muslims are clearly a minority, but it's sad that there's an even smaller minority who share the faith and are vocally apposed to the extreme tactics that some use to "preserve" it.
 
Whilst not wanting to get involved due to people being sensitive, South Park take shots at everything, the only difference is some people can't take it.
 
I hate that they caved for these whack job towel heads. They should have shown Mohammed in a daycare center looking for a modern day bride, is what they should have done!

More and more each day we are losing our voice and bending over all the more backwards, how if we found our voice and stand strong, most of these intolerant, crazy Muslims would all be running back to the desert where they are actually allowed to practice this kind of religious extortion. Any remain, if they speak out like this, well guess what!? That's considered a threat of another individual's life. See you in prison for 5-10 years!

Fuck what happened to America's spine!?

just thought i'd point out to some folks that Muslims are followers of Islam. Islam is a religion. Islam is not a race. There are white, brown, black, red and yellow Muslims. Again it is not a race.

So when you say someone is racist against Muslims or Islam then you look pretty silly because it is not a race its a religion or someone who follows that religion. Someone may be prejudice against Islam or Muslims but thats it and no other label is needed. Racists are people who are prejudiced against other people simply because of their race regardless of their religious beliefs.

for example:

Joe says, "I sure hate people who drive Chryslers."
Bob responds, "You fucking racist!"

in this example we see that Bob is mistaken. So, I'm not going to point out the particular posters who made this mistake, but I thought i'd just go ahead and educate you. you're welcome.

now that we've cleared that up, please continue the debate.....

Racist is just a easy word to throw around to try and make someone else look bad. Usually if I see the word tossed in the mix of a debate I ignore it or replace it with the actual word. Either way it really reflects on the person who is tossing it out in the middle of a debate. It is no different than calling someone names when you no longer able to keep up with the debate or know you are cornered and losing the debate.

YOU'RE A RACIST IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH ME!!!

agreed, the term racist has been tossed around so easily that it's pretty much lost all it's teeth. at one time is was an effective trump card but now its just a clichéd counterpoint.

the use of it in this thread is a good example of why

I am a bit torn about this issue.

I know a lot of muslims, some are really believers, some are a bit like most of us christians - basically we are into the faith but we ain't really being hardcore into our beliefs.

The trouble is that a really small group of asswipes - be they in the christian, the muslim or whatever faith - are stirring up things and everyone goes 'Fuck, those damn guys are insane'

But it's just a little group. The major part of believers are really down-to-earth and not crazy.
 
I'm sure these photos will be removed but is this what's causing all the violence and death threats? Really!!!. I need to get shirts made of this soon

I'm planning a trip to Saudi Arabia soon, so I'm going to need a couple of these T-shirts, hurry up and make them!! :D
 
I just don't get this though. They never once actually made fun of Muhammad himself, all they poked fun at was how ridiculous the extremists are that if you show an image of him, they will do terrible things to you... over a fucking image.

So I tried to watch the second part of the episode on southparkstudios.com and it says that they cannot show the episode because Comedy Central took audio bits out that they wanted in. I don't have cable so did it show last night on TV even? I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't show it for other reasons :thefinger

Just as the family guy episode of south park quoted, "Look, people, it's been real easy for us to stand up for free speech lately. For the past few decades we haven't had to risk anything to defend it. But those times are going to come! And one of those times is right now. And if we aren't willing to risk what we have, then we just believe in free speech, but we don't defend it!"
 
The Mormons are outraged, as well, but they are unable to do anything because they can't find enough babysitters so they can take off for a day or two to protest. Damn. :(

Actually, from what I hear, a lot of Mormons liked the SP episode about them because of what the kid says at the very end (thank you wikiquote)

"Look, maybe us Mormons do believe in crazy stories that make absolutely no sense. And maybe Joseph Smith did make it all up. But I have a great life and a great family and I have the Book of Mormon to thank for that. The truth is, I don't care if Joseph Smith made it all up. Because what the church teaches now is loving your family, being nice and helping people. And even though people in this town might think that's stupid, I still choose to believe in it. All I ever did was try to be your friend, Stan, but you're so high and mighty you couldn't look past my religion and just be my friend back. You got a lot of growing up to do, buddy. Suck my balls."

I loved that part
