Noel, Family Guy has a running gag in which God (in the iconic, white robe and beard presentation) is constantly trying to pick up women, usually by impresing them with his ability to do omnipotent things. Sometimes Jesus tags along, as in the time they flee from a barfight in an Escalade. I find it funny if only because I think it satirizes the way people throw around phrases like "I swear to God" or other name-in-vain-taking (such incidents always precede these vignettes). Maybe I'm naive. I haven't seen this show you're talking about, but it looks pretty unfunny if nothing else.

"If their sins were as scarlet, they are now white as snow" Isaiah 1:18

It shows how much that man has fallen from the truth.  And it underscores the continual demeaning of God's power and nature, much in the way society has elevated Satan to godhod and belittled God in the process.  In my view it is all of Satan's plan to usurp God in the eyes of man.  To make Satan a charactature of the evil that Satan really is, to make Satan seem small and cartoonish.  So now with this and the other slights we are going farther away from the truth, is it no wonder the world has no faith or realize the truth.

God is Infinite Justice and Infinite Mercy. All this goes down into the Book; nothing is forgotten. At the end of it all, an account has to be rendered for every thought, every word, every deed, and recompense must be made for any and all transgressions against God's justice. Some people will have a lot of 'splaining to do, and a bill far to big to fit their purse. Actors and actresses- be afraid. Be VERY afraid.

God belongs to everybody, not just to the few chosen ones. Thus, everybody can say and do whatever they want to God. If they wanna yell at God and be angry with him, so be it. If they wanna be blasphemous, so be it. And if they wanna have a joke on God, fine. I find those family guy quips funny because they're more playful than to be taken seriously. I love it when specific characters act the way you would NOT expect them to. Like Dr. Evil who's far too pussilanimous and effeminate for a villain. Come on, I can laugh about myself, too.

I watched a little bit of the Silverman show last night, and the only reason I saw that much was I had been watching The Daily Show and the Colbert Report before her show came on and the TV was still on that channel.  What I find odd is that everyone is making a big deal out of Silverman poking fun of God, but no one is mentioning that on the Colbert Report, Stephen Colbert did a bit called "Defending Easter" that twice showed an animation of a stone being rolled away from a cave, bullets being shot towards the cave, and Jesus coming out of the cave holding a pistol and returning fire. 

It seems to me that both shows are guilty of insulting God, yet only one gets any attention.

How many people expressing outrage here are actually familiar with Silverman's comedy? She's everything most of us have longed for, a politically incorrect, equal opportunity comedian who rips Christians, Jews, Muslims, Gays, Blacks, women, etc. I'm a lifelong Christian, but I'm so sick of this Christian pc crap. It didn't exist 10-15 years ago, and Christianity was the subject of comedy then as it is now. Look how PC has immasculated libs. Is that really the path we want to follow?

Noel,

This a a horrendous disgrace....horrendous.

How low are these creatures going to slither to...what depths are left?

I have only one thought for an answer...the first one that comes to mind most likely counts for most able thinking people.

Is this Newsbusters or Focus on the Family?

pure filth and I believe they will be punished.

An ugly American is one who does not support his country.

But would comedy central make fun of Mohammed?
