Editorial-

Although in recent days there have been many arguments to the contrary, I for one would like to applaud Comedy Central’s brave editorial decision to allow an image of Jesus defecating on others to appear in Wednesday nights South Park episode. By doing so, the network has opened the door to the very real possibility that angry Catholics around the nation will take extreme action much like they have in the past when upset over a perceived slight to their faith.

Based on the past behavior of these intrinsically angry Bible-thumpers, some of the very real dangers that the folks at Comedy Central have now exposed themselves to include:

• Prayer. While some Catholics will actually be praying for the souls of those involved, others are merely using this sophisticated form of voodoo for evil and vindictive purposes.
• Turning the channel. This is just a fancy term for the worst form of censorship; grassroots censorship.
• Writing angry letters. I know these letters may not actually threaten the lives of anyone, but they will likely express strong disagreement with the network’s decision. I do not need to tell you that this is tantamount to a death threat.
• Not killing people. What does that say about their belief system? Jesus died for their sins and they are not even willing to kill someone for blaspheming their religion?

All I can say is keep your eyes open Comedy Central. You have once again aroused the Catholic beast. Hats off to you for your brave, principled stance.
