Pope insulted on the Jon Stewart Show

I am constantly amazed at what can be said in the world, especially in the name of art or humor. It is truly abhorrent that people feel that mocking religion is humorous and worst still networks allow it to happen. What I am speaking of at the moment is the June 16th episode of the Jon Stewart Show, in which Louis C.K. says the following: "I was going to say that the pope f***ed boys and I didn't have time". How is this humor or even acceptable?

In all actuality, it is much worse than all this. You can see for yourself.



It has been demonstrated time and time again that anti-Catholic bigotry is the last acceptable prejudice. We know from the past that when Catholics gather together and write that a difference can be made. Let's stop this from happening any further. Comedy Central, the network of the show, needs to understand that making flaming accusations about the Pope or degrading our religion is not acceptable. Enough is enough.

An additional thing to note is that Pope Benedict XVI has been horrified at the sexual scandal that has rocked the church and has done a great deal to help facilitate healing and the disciplining of those responsible for abuse. What Louis C.K. speaks about in reference to him is not only not humorous, but not factual. (You can read a bit more about that here).
