Scientology Kicks out South Park

We all know South Park goes way out on making religious satire against every major religion, but it looks like attacking Scientology has claimed a victim of the crazy cartoon's success.

Soul singer Issac Hayes has quit his job as the voice of "Chef" on the show. His reason was the show's "inappropriate ridicule" of religion. Really...and you still stayed on after the Jesus fighting Santa pre-clip, Christopher Reeves sucking on dead fetuses to stay alive, and the killing of Kenny? Over 150 episodes have been made making fun of Christians, Muslims, Mormons, and Jews. It seems that when make-believe Scientology was next on the list, you left.

Series co-creator Matt Stone said the veteran recording artist was upset the show had recently lampooned the Church of Scientology.

But it's too bad Hayes left the show. The Church of Scientology would have had access to millions of young and college kids to brainwash. We are damn lucky that they haven't pursued setting up student clubs about it.
