I love how they went out of the way to show how sensitive fundamentalist Islam is compared to other religions. They showed Buddha snorting cocaine and Jesus as a porn addict and nobody else has complained, they didn't even show Muhammad, only mentioned him, and they get death threats.

I think muslims need to get used to free speech.

They didn't even mention him in the second part to the episode, his name was bleeped out by Comedy Central!

That pisses me off.  I'm an American atheist and I put up with all kinds of bullshit from religious people, but it scares me that major public figures and corporations are afraid to even say the word Mohammed because of retaliation by a bunch of idiots.  I may sound like a Southern Hick, but if you don't like America and our freedom of speech, go back to Saudi Arabia where your king can behead you for showing your ankles in public.

+1. Totally agree.

If you can't handle free speech, no matter how crazy it is, get out of the country.
