Note, this is a repaste from Deviant Art, but I feel my furry audience deserve to see this as well:
I might either get banned for this, worse off, <i>even killed in real life,</i> but I can't take this bullshit anymore.
I'm almost done watching every South Park episode I can get access to, with a minor inconvenience from season 5, because the "Super Best Friends" episode was somehow banned from both South Park Studio's online streams AND Netflix instant queue; I was able to find it in full on a Germanic/Slavic video-sharing website. Now I am up to episode 200 on South Park Studio's stream videos, and BOTH 200 and 201 are not available. Only one explanation: Comedy Central doesn't have the balls to show the controversies that is the depiction of the Prophet Muhammad in imagery, no matter how much of a big deal it's not.
I made this cartoon a while ago, and I wanted to wait until I gathered enough information to present my reasons behind this cartoon. But due to recent frustrations that is NOT being able to see South Part 200 and 201...
It is time I express my own frustration and opinions for all three major religions, ESPECIALLY for the Muslim world:
<b>GROW UP YOU FUCKS!!!</b>
Jesus Christ, representing Christianity and Catholicism, asks his children to grow up on account of realizing that his religion is not THE only ultimate faith to believe in. He does not condemn against human differences (homosexuality, atheism, etc.), holy wars in the name of his Father and Jesus himself are a travesty, and the catholic cover-up of pedophiles among the priests is another form of denying truth and reality that we're are humans, we have natural desires that need to be acknowledge, and we make mistakes. (No I am NOT in support of pedophilia; it's more of a misdirected interest based on the sciences and psychology of neoteny. <u><a href=" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoteny "> LOOK IT UP.</a></u>)
Moses, representing Jewish and Semitic-related faiths, asks his children to grow up on account of the Israelis butchering Gaza fueled by pure fear and religious fervor for the "promised land." Just because we consider the actions of the Israelis a wholly violent manslaughter and utter disgrace within international relations -- not to mention our stating that you have no right to invade in the first place, even though the current leader might have thought of it first -- does not mean we are anti-Semitic; it means we are anti-manslaughter and anti-war. Helen Thomas did not deserve to be kicked out of her position because of her comment.
The Prophet Muhammad, who represents the Muslim world, PARTICULARLY the extremists, stands in the front row with support from his fellow faiths, asks his children to grow up on account of this frivolous controversies of depicting the images of himself, be it political satire or expression of artistic admiration. Because of your (Muslim extremists) reactions towards the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jyllands-Posten_Muhammad_cartoons_controversy">Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons</a>, you've fulfilled the stereotype that you are all bomb-happy nut-jobs who's only solution to anything and everything in life is to suicide bomb every living thing WHO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU. Because of these series of hate-fueled explosions, you're driving away the decent people of the Muslim community away from their faiths, because even though you think it's okay, it goes against THEIR beliefs, not to mention their fear of being associated with you dumbfucks. What's even worse, your temper-tantrums, the most unacceptable form of behavior in any society (and I've done my fair shares of throwing a fit as a child), have made a severe dent in my country's fundamental freedom of expression.
Cartoons are the most basic expression we know about, when there are no words to describe how we feel, and this being the 21st century, we have evolved as iconographic-dependent human beings when it comes to consumerism, entertainment, and understanding our world. People often forget that IGNORING what you don't like or disagree with is as much of a valued form of speech as saying ANYTHING in the first place. Some of us may not like either Rush Limbaugh or John Stewart, but let the others who DO enjoy what they say have their access to those freedom of speech, be they right or wrong -- the rest of us just IGNORE them. Violence only begets more violence, and a series of violence over a stupid idea of preventing idolatry of a person (who may or may not be fictitious in the first place) only bring upon stupidity that is the modern United States government's view on cultural and religious sensitivity toward blood-thirsty war-mongering zealots.
And because of all that, I don't get to see Mecha Barbara Streisand's full-body revamp for South Park season 14!!! At least not without referring to those Germanic/Slavic video websites again.
Look, I'm no hard-core fan of South Park, especially since Mr. Garrison's sex change episode was too much for me to take in (transvestites give me the jibblies), but I don't want that entire show banned because of that. People still love the show, and it doesn't hurt anyone, unlike actively going out and shooting or raping someone. Besides, it's their job to make fun of everyone -- they even made fun of Atheists, and I'm one of them! It's no surprise. This is a form of asking ourselves how much of a limit we're willing to have and still laugh at ourselves, think for a bit more, than forget about it and go on with our lives.
So enough with the controversies of drawing a cartoon of Muhammad -- and I don't care for the ugly ones in contrast to the good ones that shows him as a nice guy. It's just a drawing, not a genocide device.
And at least, AT THE LEAST, let me watch my South Park episode 200-201 so I can see why everyone is so bat-shit over this!
Before you start fabricating your own C-4s for my eminent demise, stop and think for a moment about what you're throwing a fit over. Is it really worth another report about how truly violent the Muslim world is? Wouldn't it be better to change your behavior and outlook on life? We are all gonna eventually progress to a peaceful world, anyway, so we might as well get used to it or risk extinction
And an extinction of the human race is far more scarier to me than my own death.

While I do agree with you...
A) Highly doubt anyone will be killing you for this.
B) They didn't take it down because 'they didn't have the balls" to show it. From what I know, the Muslim extremists (the Taliban specifically may have been involved) were so pissed at how they portrayed the prophet Muhammad, they pretty much put a hit on the creators of the show. Like, they were in SERIOUS DANGER, FBI involved and everything. And while I do believe that freedom of speech is a delightful thing to fight for, there were plenty of perfectly good reasons to pull those episodes. It IS ridiculous. But then again, as the creator of Dogma once said: "unlike the Catholic League, when those cats don't like what you do, they issue a death warrant on yer ass."
It's an unfortunate truth that common sense does not invite itself into the mental faculties of lunatics.

Oh yeah, I remember that episode... aren't they fighting David Blaine or some magician in that one? That was hilarious.
Yeah, I don't know. Maybe after they freaked out, the episode was brought to their attention or CC just decided to take the better safe then sorry approach.
You've never seen Dogma? It is soooooo good. :3 I bet you'd like it. The wikipedia about it is pretty interesting, too.

Yeah, the David Blair incident; an early form of making fun of Scientologists, I think. My favorite pat was when Stan kept chanting "Oh, my go! They killed Kenny!" like an echolocation call in order to find Kyle.
I have seen Dogma, just the TV version. We have the DVD, but it's in our backlog of DVDs we're planning to watch...

Ahh, it's actually not that different. The only difference between the TV and the DVD version is a scene right after they met Serendipity, the muse at the Strip Club. Jay and Silent Bob get initiated into the gang then then a Shit Demon (seriously) shows up and kills most of them. It was actually sort of... out of place from the rest of the movie, so I personally thought it was just as good without it.
Bravo! Bravo!
Much applause!
I've already decided a long time ago, once I take over the world that I'm laying down the law. If they can't get their shit together in one year of my coming into power, I'm taking Jerusilum away. If they can't play nicely, no one can have it.
But in seriousness, this is the best thing I've seen and read in a long time.
