If they really wanted to call out bullshit they'ed go after Islam but they are too afraid. They themselves are bullshitting us.

You don't have to actually have any sexual contact. Just enough so that anybody that has the sexual phobias of the Abrahamic religions [Judaism, Christianity, and Islam] has to violate that deeply. You probably don't have to pay the two people; they would probably think it was a cool, fun thing to do. You just barely touch your lips with the genitals--just like that--and you have a little piece of bacon and you get on the plane. There's no searching your luggage. No nothing. We're all set.
They have taken shots at all religions.

"Since Christians appear to be pissed off that there is a double standard about defaming Christianity instead of Islam, as illustrated by the recent
South Park episodes, I would just like to say three things.
First, all religions need to be dragged through the mud (or, as on South Park, through the feces — whichever you have on hand will do). If your beliefs can’t withstand irreverence by people who don’t share them then you need to take a deep, deep look inside yourself and figure out why you are so damned offended by somebody else, in essence, not agreeing with you. If you really think you’re right, then why should it matter if they agree with you? Water off a duck’s back, we used to say, back in the days before political correctness.
Second, if there is a “double standard” whereby Christianity gets made fun of while Islam is hands-off, then there is really only one reason for that, and it should make the Christians proud. Have you figured out what it is? Here, I’ll tell you: Christians generally don’t kill people when we make fun of their religion. Did you get that? Meanwhile, Muslims, when other people they have never met draw a picture of Muhammad and show it to still other people they have not met, in countries they have never visited, and those Muslims find that picture offensive, they get violent. They act like immature little children, except they have guns and bombs. It’s a credit to Christianity that such a double standard exists.
Third, I would like to throw my hat into the ring with my own image of the prophet. Are you ready? It might be offensive. Watch out. Here it is:
prophet.jpgAre you scared yet?
Try this one. Watch out. If you show these around, you’ll just give irrational people an excuse to kill you. But don’t be afraid. Steal my image above and put it on your own website. Crush the double standard. Be an American for crying out loud; anyone can do it.
Finally, a famous verse from the Koran:
9.5:So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
(While we’re at it, why not go and
watch the video that got
Theo van Gogh killed.) "
