I do not deny organized religion the right to show their superstitious
programming on TV... why do they want to deny me the right to view a satiric
cartoon that pokes fun at those superstitions...? If they don't like the
program, no one is forcing them to watch... just like I don't watch the
religious programming...!
Where is the lack of fairness in this?
