Blasphemy was abolished as an offense in 2008 and on Tuesday the film board gave Wingrove's film an "18" rating, meaning it may be viewed by adults.
Blasphemy doesn't even describe it, that's just so intolerant its ridiculous.Stu wrote:Agreed, just horribleMurray wrote:Most disgusting thing I've ever read for a plot as a movie

Precisely, I mean at what point does something like that become offensive, so offensive that it is likely to insight a potential violent response.Murray wrote:Blasphemy doesn't even describe it, that's just so intolerant its ridiculous.Stu wrote:Agreed, just horribleMurray wrote:Most disgusting thing I've ever read for a plot as a movie

Yip.Heck i bet you they would outlaw it if it had the Prophet Muhammad in it.
I stopped watching Family Guy because of the stupid "preachy" nature of the show. When I watch a comedy show, I want to get a good laugh, not get a ham-fisted attempt at shoving somebody's beliefs down my throat. They're not even good arguments anyway. Anybody who knows anything about apologetics can defeat every single one, with most of them simply being strawman or ad hominem attacks, but I don't think they can be considered ad hominem because they're directed towards strawmen.narnia4 wrote:I don't like South Park, but I guess you could say I "appreciate" that they are one of the very, very few truly equal opportunity comedies that makes fun of absolutely everybody. Family Guy is ridiculously hypocritical and "preachy".
Hopefully this thing doesn't get more attention because of the ban.
I stopped watching it very soon after it first aired, actually. Glad I did because it was not only insulting but... stupid.Dudeacus97 wrote:I stopped watching Family Guy because of the stupid "preachy" nature of the show.

I also hate the way they deal with controversial subjects. I saw an interview/ developer diary with some of the Family Guy producers and they literally treat controversial subjects in the same light as "We mentioned AIDS and 9/11 in the same sentence. We're cool!"

Imagine if Muhammad was being insulted? I can hear the rocks flying, the glass shattering; I can smell the buildings burning, I can sense the panic as you barricade your home against the rioters...for such is the way of the world.

Very, very true. Good observation. Let's make sure to offer our prayers for those in harm's way.Rob wrote:How prophetic!Furstentum Liechtenstein wrote:Don't worry, nothing will come of this. Christians will just yawn.
