About time. They should have been muzzled after their vicious and baseless attack on Scientology.

While our faith doesn't have much in common with Islam, at least they understand what it's like to be hated and feared for no good reason.

I hope the Battman is being sarcastic...

[IronBeer]

Hm. And they've also had the "Superbestfriends" episode with Mohammed in it as well, several years ago. But did we hear anything about that? No, we did not.

Is that sarcasm?

It's as if you guys have never read any of his posts before EVER.

[mxlm]

What do you mean, "You people?"

Also, Redsniper is correct. I've read Batman's previous posts so I'm on solid ground when I say he's being completely serious.

[General Battuta]

Completely, deadly serious here. This is not a joking matter.

[Kosh]

So, now you're defending death threats? Maybe Islam is "hated and feared" precisely because so many of them keep pulling stunts like this.

[SpardaSon21]

Yeah, throwing out death threats because someone did something you don't like is not acceptable in modern society.

I'm sorry, were you supporting censorship because they insulted you?  Grow a pair.

South Park makes vicious, baseless attacks on everyone. That's why it's entertaining, even when it insults groups that I'm a part of.

So much anger. I think all of you need an assist massage. Take off your shirts while I attempt to assess your body thetans.

* mxlm wants a massage.

[General Battuta]

Never fear, mxlm. I am cleared at Operating Thetan 8.

Okay, let's make sure to keep our emotions in check so this doesn't turn into a massive flame war.  We can all have a civil discussion without resorting to personal attacks.

Anyway, as for my opinion, South Park is an equal-opportunity offender.  It's not fair to censor them when they insult one group and leave them uncensored when they insult another.  That's part of what freedom of speech is about.

Goober, I will not stand by and allow them to denigrate my faith.

We have the technology to end human suffering. It's a moral imperative to advance that cause.

And how is that incompatible with what I said?  You may have noticed that many Christians on this board haven't stood by when people denigrate their faith either.  Free speech includes speaking in your own defense.

I'm sorry, I don't understand how this is related to the conversation.

Given the stakes here (the continued enslavement of the human race vs. our potential to achieve Operating Thetan level as a species) I think it's clear that problematic viewpoints need to be censored, for the same reason that hate groups like Operation Clambake need to be silenced.

Let's face it. There's an enemy out there, he's very real, and he's extremely persuasive.

Listen to this man! He's doing his damnedest to save us all from Lord Xenu and you treat him like a loony. For shame.

Poe's Law at work...

I just... don't know anymore.

Aaaaaanyways... let's just promote freedom of speech and religion and increase standards of living. Silencing certain groups could tend to make people hate you.
