South Park: Another Holy Week Assault

The annual Holy Week Catholic bashfest is in full swing.

The War on Christianity and Christians always seems to heighten at this most holy time of year.

Michelle Malkin points out another instance.



South Park doesn't just mock Catholics in the Fantastic Easter Special, it delivers a relentless assault.

Brendan Loy gives his take on the episode.

Personally, I thought the episode was freakin’ hilarious, but then again I am very rarely offended by anything, and I certainly am not so foolish as to give an unreserved endorsement — on a blog frequented by devout Catholics — to a cartoon that shows Jesus Christ Himself, newly resurrected after a blatantly over-the-top scene showing His gory death, throwing a ninja weapon at the Pope, who is graphically hemisected, killed, and promptly replaced by a new Pope… who happens to be a rabbit.

Loy concludes:
Love ‘em or hate ‘em, you gotta give the South Park boys credit for at least one thing: they definitely don’t hold anything back. :)

It doesn't sound hilarious to me.

I'm sure I'm not alone.
