I have thought about this some more, and the other main religions do have lots of restrictions as well that affect the lives of people in other religions, such as the issues between Christians and the gay community.

I just thought the examples I came up, restricting what can be seen on South Park and what can be seen on Facebook, were extreme, that's all.

Come to think of it, if there was something offensive to Christians on South Park, some extremist Christian group would probably try to censor the episode as well.

In conclusion, maybe the world would be better off with no religion.

actually not.. Jesus is a character that is frequently on South Park. they've made fun of more Pope's than anyone. No death threats. They made Mohammad dressed as a Bear and now the writers have to live in hiding.. The whole car bomb in front of the Viacom building in NYC? Same place where South Park is written? I do not believe that was a coincidence.. especially considering that the guy who left the bomb had previously spoken out against the "prophet" in that Danish cartoon.
