Another example of the organized religion poison.

Religion. Justifying Killing Non-Believers Since The Beginning.™

Is the killing of infidels a modern thing? I have never heard of this killing of people for pictures until the last few years or so. Ever since Rushdie wrote "Satanic versus" that is when I started hearing more of this type of buffonery.

The more Muslims get overly pissed off and worked up about public portrayal's of Mohammed, the more people like Matt Stone and Trey parker will take the piss out of them.

And quite right too!

No character or figure, fictional or otherwise, should have the protection of never being portrayed anywhere by anybody, its bloody ridiculous.

I saw the episode and Brian is correct when he said the whole thing was about NOT portraying Mohammed, he appeared in a teddy bear costume, and spoke two muffled words from inside the back of a van.

Having said that Parker and Stone knew they would be stirring up a shitstorm with this episode, it can't really come as any surprise.

Is the "not ever portraying Mohammed" thing a recent one?

I can remember being shown visual representations of Mohammed during Religious studies in high school.
