South Park: Chef's gruesome demise

Pages: 1 7 replies

Matt & Trey have dealt harshly with Isaac Hayes' recent mutiny over "religious bigotry" issues and his subsequent departure from the show. In the first episode of the new season, Hayes' character Chef joins an all male "Adventurer's Club" (read NAMBLA), becomes a pedophile, is killed and torn apart by lion and a bear and is salvaged and turned into a Darth Vader-like robot. Can't wait to see the next episode!

That was a hilarious episode....I guess you shouldn't f**k with Matt & Trey!

I heard heard Isaac Hayes had a stroke and the scientology story was the bunk. What's the real story?

In 1991, Time Magazine published a cover story on Scietology, which describes Scientology as nothing more than an eloboare pyramid scheme based on a belief that "Thetans" are the cause of evil in the universe, and that Scientology sucks all $$$ from its members for higher level of counseling:

"Today the church invents costly new services with all the zeal of its founder. Scientology doctrine warns that even adherents who are "cleared" of engrams face grave spiritual dangers unless they are pushed to higher and more expensive levels. According to the church's latest price list, recruits -- "raw meat," as Hubbard called them -- take auditing sessions that cost as much as $1,000 an hour, or $12,500 for a 12 1/2-hour "intensive."

Psychiatrists say these sessions can produce a drugged-like, mind-controlled euphoria that keeps customers coming back for more. To pay their fees, newcomers can earn commissions by recruiting new mem- bers, become auditors themselves (Miscavige did so at age 12), or join the church staff and receive free counseling in exchange for what their written contracts describe as a "billion years" of labor. "Make sure that lots of bodies move through the shop," implored Hubbard in one of his bulletins to officials. "Make money. Make more money. Make others produce so as to make money . . . However you get them in or why, just do it."

So, can anyone tell me what the t-shirt slogan "Tom Cruise Stole my Religion" means? I saw it in Hollywood and don't know if it's pro-Scientology but anti-Cruise, or anti-both:

Apparently Scientology is not based on green men from Mars, but something very, very close:

"They assert that 75 million years ago, an evil galactic warlord named Xenu controlled seventy-six planets in this corner of the galaxy, each of which was severely overpopulated. To solve this problem, Xenu rounded up 13.5 trillion beings and then flew them to Earth, where they were dumped into volcanoes around the globe and vaporized with bombs. This scattered their radioactive souls, or thetans, until they were caught in electronic traps set up around the atmosphere and "implanted" with a number of false ideas -- including the concepts of God, Christ and organized religion. Scientologists later learn that many of these entities attached themselves to human beings, where they remain to this day, creating not just the root of all of our emotional and physical problems but the root of all problems of the modern world." Rolling Stone.

Nice research, Tikijackalope.

Those who are pro-Scientology wear light blue shirts and black pants, the uniform.
