Good Episode of SouthPark last night |
I don't watch TV regularly, so, FAIK, this is an old episode: Cartman
inherits a million dollars, and uses it to buy an amusement park, so he
can ride the rides without having to wait in lines. Meanwhile, one of his
two friends (Stan or Kyle, I don't remember which) gets a painful,
infected hemorrhoid. The inequity leads him to question the existence of
God.
The BEST part of the whole episode is the hemorrhoid kid's parents, who
are Jewish, reading him the story of Job. At the end, the kid says, "So
God destroys a righteous man's family, friends, house, servants, and
animals, just to prove a point to Satan? What kind of sadistic God would
do such a thing?"
The whole episode was very well done. Catch it if you can.

Yes, I had seen it. It's one of the better religious themed south parks
up there with their moses episode, the joseph smith episode and some of
the jesus episodes. They've done well over a dozen shows where they make
fun of religion pretty hard, although they also do one where they diss on
atheists a bit. Of course lots of other comics like Dilbert, Duckman,
the Simpsons, The Family Guy and Gary and Mike do that too.
It would be pretty sweet to collect all of those episodes together one
day and do some kind if irreverent atheist film day.

comparable to the smallpox virus but harder to
eradicate." -- Richard Dawkins

Kyle carried around the bum ring.

One of my favs. Of course the ending is a bit of Hollywood corn.
