I saac Hayes better known as chef on the south park series, accused the show of bigotry. The reason being of the show making fun of different religions.

I don't know how they're going to deal with Chef now...

Yeah...I heard about this when I read the newspaper yesterday.
It had something to do with one of the episodes making fun of Scientology (Isaac is member of this religion.) My guess is that they'll kill Chef off.

In my opinion the show will not be the same. The funny thing is though I have a authentic signed chef photo from isaac hayes.

I saw that episode

I thought it was funny.
But they're his beliefs, so his decision should be respected (even if it means losing Chef...

)

Well, I'll say this:
If you can't laugh at yourself, then don't laugh at others

.
It's more than a little self-serving to quit because of some jokes about your religion when every other religion has been poked fun at several times from the same show.
I say Isaac needs to lighten up! If you're going to participate in making fun of others' religions, don't be horribly offended when it comes back to your religion!

Exactly My thoughts. He cashed paycheck after paycheck with them making fun of Christians, Buddhists, Jews, and so forth. But as soon ans they make fun of Scientology, he's ouuta there! Give me a break. Grow up Isacc!

That was the saddest episode! But they really stuck it to scientology with absolutely no mercy.
