He just quit South Park coz they made too much fun of his religion.
-
Good thing he wasn\'t a Christian, Mormon, Muslim, Jew, or anything else because he would have been gone by Season 2.

Actually, he was one of those....and he stayed on until he joined Scientology. That\'s when he became intolerant.

Death to the chef. Oh well. Not like they can\'t get another black guy.

bruce campbell is too, he is much cooler, and the singer from talking heads i do believe

Back for only a day and already you\'ve ruined Bruce Campbell for me, Kopking. What gives? :)

Blade will be happy to know this, then. :)

yea i read about that...like i\'ve always stated before..it\'s ok to poke fun at some of those religions, as long as you don\'t go overboard.i think Hayes might be acting like a bit of a hypocrite here tho.... south park always had some type of twisted morals that it gave you to think about at the end of each of those types of episodes...:p
-
It\'s ok to rag on people as long as it doesn\'t offend yourself.
That\'s the new moral of the story.
May be funny for Matt and Trey to do a show on that.....
-
The Chef character should be the same, but they should turn him white and give him the new voice. He\'d go "hello there children!" and act like nothing happened. Like when Roseanne switched Beckys.
"Hey, you guys notice something different about chef?" "Nope..."

That\'s a shame. I can\'t beleive he took it that seriously. South Park makes fun of all religions and pretty much all races and everything. It was only a matter of time before they made fun of scientology. Its a bullshit religion anyway.
-

I don\'t think Isaac Hayes suddenly became intolerant. The Church of Scientology ordered him to quit, and he obeyed. It\'s a very authoritarian structure, and diobedience is not tolerated.

He\'s brainwashed beyond help.
-
I wonder if he\'s gonna eventually see its bullshit and quit that "religion".
-
meh, good riddance. I never really liked chef (or black people for that matter...... ohh I kid I kid :p) but Scientology is something I really truly hate.
I remember many moons ago when I first heard the term Scientology and thought to myself "ahh, so basically people that don\'t really follow religion but instead science... that makes sense... very 21st century of them"
Then it turned out that there was no science in it beyond the name and this is justa bunch if idiots.
now let us all praise our religious idols, jesus, moses, allah, muhammed..... and ron.
-
L. Ron Hubbard... how can you not love a talentless sci-fi writer who joked about how one should start their own religion to get rich. And so he did.
At least the brainwashed scientologists (I dunno what they\'re called) can hang out with Tom Cruise and John Travolta...
-
Latter Day Saints?
They\'re not as koookie as Scienos.
Mormons are pretty weird, IMO.
-
I\'m not a big fan of Scientology... much less do I follow it. :?(
hehe... Tom Cruise... Scientology... lol
-

It\'s only a "religion" for purposes of tax evasion. How many legitimate religions do you know that keep their beliefs secret and require you to PAY them to study their teachings?
If I were the president, I would immediately sign an executive order revoking their tax exempt status.

That South Park episode was hilarious. I thought it was just another hoakie religion out there like cults except they actually have a decent following. Once I saw that south park episode, I wonder how anyone could follow that religion. Aliens? Souls floating around nothing? Weird shit.
-
I believe his son thinks the religions a crock of shit, that is the son of L. Ron Hubbard that is, the people that are scientologists just throw there f\'n money to that religion, why not give it to something better like feeding the poor. Stupid religions.
-
I\'d consider scientology a cult. Atleast the other religions have something a bit more believeable (like the older religions christian and pre-christian).

In the time periods those stories were written, people tended to believe them because they were trying to explain the unexplainable. Now we have evolution and stuff which makes those stories obsolete but I dont\' see how new religions can challenge science which proves them wrong.

Evolution is still only a theory with bits and pieces of information with the rest filled in with guesses. There is still much left unknown about it. Science is always changing.

Blah blah. I created someone from one of my ribs on the way to work this morning.

Did you watch the Daily Show last night? there was a guy on there who wrote a book about stories in the bible and how they changed. How before the printing press the bibles were all done by hand and how no two books are the same.
It\'s just a book.

Women were created out of Adam\'s rib. Another proof that women are evil.

a book of truth....it\'s true that there are many versions of the bible,..only because so many have tried to translate it to english..but they all basically say the same thing.....don\'t get me started on the big bang theory...:rolleyes:
-
Big Bang Theory was actually first thought of by a Catholic priest and not a scientist.
In 1927, the Belgian priest Georges Lemaître was the first to propose that the universe began with the explosion of a primeval atom. His proposal came after observing the red shift in distant nebulas by astronomers to a model of the universe based on relativity. Years later, Edwin Hubble found experimental evidence to help justify Lemaître\'s theory. He found that distant galaxies in every direction are going away from us with speeds proportional to their distance.

i will take a theory with pieces missing over a book. I find it funny that christians bitch at people to have faith when you have to blindly follow a god, but when it comes to believing science and what it has so far then were blind for not believing the truth and only following a "theory" with some big scientific facts.
and clips, im not 100% sure if "dont get me started on the big bang theory" means that u think its bs. So i wont get into why saying a theory is bs doesnt work.
Sorry but..theres other earth\'s. Look at all the stars in the universe, and imagine planets around all those stars. Theres going to be a pretty good chance one of those happened to hold life, and if they have a brain like ours theyre going to question why theyre there, what made them, and what happens when they die.

The Big Bang Theory is parallel with that of "Let There Be Light". ie everything from nothing. Hence why I mentioned Georges Lemaître.
I think you\'ll find that most Christians believe in science as much as atheists and agnostics. It\'s the fundamentalists that get most peoples\' attention. It\'s up to you to realize that they are fewer than tolerant Christians.
-
ugh, scientology

i know they are. But what separates us is christians believe god created the scientific facts. (i.e. big bang/evolution..assuming theyre true).
btw..i think scientists have the core of things, like evolution and the big bang. Theyre just missing a lot of facts in between that are difficult to fill in.
Iv just experienced, going to catholic school, that whenever i ask too hard of a question about god they said "well..thats where faith comes in." Whereas if i asked a scientist/professor a question they cant answer they say "we havent figured that out yet." Both answer nothing, but i accept the professor\'s answer more.

Because the "we haven\'t figured that out yet" means they are working on figuring it out whereas the Christians keep saying "have faith". One goes out to find knowledge while the other lives under their rock.
-
Wow, so much ignorance in this thread.
-
see..thats what im talking about.
believe in god..i have no problem with it. I\'v never knocked anyone for having faith. I actually envy people with faith. I just explain why i don\'t. Do i say im right? no. Do i say what i think? yes.
edit: and iv noticed..any time weve debated this theres someone that says "wow..so much ignorance in this thread"..i know how christianity started, i know how islam started. Sorry, but i dont believe it. call me ignorant? your just as ignorant as i am. You dont know shit. I dont know shit. The difference is you think you know shit.
-
it really is amazing...how people think,...we\'ve had this conversation many times and ultimately, nobody can say for sure what the true outcome is....i truly believe that there are other signs of life in the universe....too many things have happened in my life to prove that he does exist...i\'ll go into my latest story...i\'ve been in georgia for about six months now...i\'ve been applyin for jobs since i\'ve been down here and nothing....as soon as my last unemployment check drops...guess what? a week later i got a job at coco-cola doin the same thing i was doin in jersey...:fro:...coincidence?...i think not...
too many people around the world believe in what the bible say,...when you have faith, he will supply those needs for you...you might not hit the lottery or things of that nature...*sheeit people who do have money still are not happy*...but he will provide your needs....think about the big bang theory...big explosion...molten lava rocks...then the earth cools down then...bada boom bada bing...humans appear!...:rolleyes:...humans cannot come from just that...
i know you\'ll say but how can somebody walk on water yada yada yada....go ahead and laugh but that is where faith comes in...and it\'s not just people sayin that in the u.s. it\'s a world wide thing...people in africa believe it...europe,..russia, iraq, iran...(yes regardless of what you see on tv it\'s true)..libya,...everywhere...i can respect how others feel, but you gotta think about what scientists are...human...the choose to believe science and nothing else....somebody created us imo and there can be no other explanation...
-
humans didnt appear after the big bang. MILLIONS of years went by. I forgot the analogy but if the earth\'s history was 24 hours, we would only be part of like 2 of those hours. I might be a little off but were some super small fraction of the history of the earth (let alone the universe). Theres some crazy stuff to be learned. We pretty much figured out contracting muscles/movement started with sponges. So in a sense, you look at a sponge and thats what gave us the ability to move our arms and legs.
shit..the big bang was only the wayyy beginning. From the big bang came millions of galaxies. on those galaxies are billions of stars (stars that have their own spiffy ways of being created) and around those stars are planets. Earth got lucky and had water and life. EVERYTHING happened under water then they grew legs (obviously not overnight) to get on land. etc. You might think its farfetched, but it makes sense to me. But theres obviously the question "how did the big bang start." Sure as hell wont figure that out in my lifetime.
im not really sure of your past/the whole story, but maybe you got a job doing the same thing because of your resume? or did they not know u did that same job before?
And i dont like the \'if you have faith, hell supply the needs for you.\' its kinda annoying IMO that a god would make it so hard to believe in him that if you pass the test of believing then hell help you out.

My geography teacher did something like that. He used like 2 20 meter tapes or something like that (it was a lot) and humans were on the earth for only a few millimeters.
-
it really i...imo and there can be no other explanation...
Baffle us with bullshit?
Nah I\'m just kidding.
But seriously, it\'s no big thing. Hell, just this morning, I proved the big bang theory on my way to work.

That wasn\'t directed directly at you, and I was talking on both sides, but thank you for being a complete incompetant jackass. Please don\'t spout your useless ranting.

Your scale is still way off.
One theory holds that the Big Bang occured 13.7 Billion years ago. The Earth formed 4.5 Billion years ago, and our species may be about 5 million years old. Therefore, we only account for about .11% of the history of the Earth. If you thought of that 4.5 Billion years as 24 hours, we would account for about 90 seconds of it.

I\'m not good at math but I knew his numbers were a bit off. Well explained. Although my head still hurts from reading that, lol.

I think we\'re taking the word "24 hours" literally in human terms. What is 24 hours from God\'s perspective?

What was my example? If you are talking about the meter tapes, I wasn\'t saying that was any day. I\'m saying that was how long the humans were on in YEARS compared to the rest of the universe from big bang to now. Besides, I\'m tired of this "well God\'s 24 hours isn\'t the same as hours" bullshit. When the bible was written, when the author said a day, he meant a day in human terms. That\'s it. People keep thinking too far into it. Its a flipping book. People are taking it too damn literal. The days God created the earth was human days, that was the author\'s intention and that\'s how it should be taken. Fundies are changing it to sway people away from science.

The battle between "South Park""South Park" creators Trey ParkerTrey Parker and Matt StoneMatt Stone and Scientology is escalating.
The dust-up gained steam last week when Isaac Hayes, a practicing Scientologist who has long been the voice of the character Chef, quit after objecting to a "South Park" episode called "Trapped in the Closet," which lampooned both the religion and Tom CruiseTom Cruise.
The skirmish continued this week, when Comedy CentralComedy Central abruptly pulled a repeat of that episode that was scheduled to air Wednesday evening. Showing instead was another memorable segseg which featured Hayes\'s character, called "Chef\'s Chocolate Salty Balls."
Blog reports pegged the mysterious episode switch to objections raised by Cruise, who, the reports stated, threatened to not promote "Mission: Impossible 3," the summer tentpole for ViacomViacom-owned Paramount.
A spokesman for Cruise denied that Cruise had ever made such a threat. "He never said any such thing about \'Mission: Impossible 3," the spokesman said.
While the "South Park" creators didn\'t directly comment on Comedy Central\'s decision to pull the episode, they issued an unusual statement to Daily Variety indicating the battle is not over.
"So, Scientology, you may have won THIS battle, but the million-year war for earth has just begun! Temporarily anozinizing our episode will NOT stop us from keeping Thetans forever trapped in your pitiful man-bodies. Curses and drat! You have obstructed us for now, but your feeble bid to save humanity will fail! Hail Xenu!!!"
The duo signed the statement "Trey Parker and Matt Stone, servants of the dark lord Xenu."
-
servants of the dark lord Xenu,hahaha.
Those guys are awesome.
-
So that\'s the second episode pulled indefinitely. The Scientology episode was the greatest episode in a while. Its a shame its gone now. I wonder if they\'ll put it on the DVD when they release it.

Though he is a scientologist, rumor has it Isaac Hayes didn\'t quit the show over it.
