@sugarpandapaws08 Yes but it wasn't actually directed at God :P By the rationality in reacting to a filthy word anywhere near a sentence then "God is awesome and Satan is a cunt" would be offensive et al. to the religious.
@TheAtheologian Yea, but I guess it's preference. Some people don't want g-dang said but have no problem with just Jesus Christ! or God! even though they are technically the same context.
Honestly I wouldn't sing this song just because I don't like either but that's just me.
@xdisturbed96x I understand where you are coming from, but if you think about it, God invented language and most likely gave Trey Parker and Matt Stone the idea for this musical. In fact, both Park and Stone have very close friends who are Mormon (according to Wikipedia, which we all know is truthful 100% of the time :P) and I would think they wouldn't want to offend their close friends.
@jumpmanajf I don't see it as being satirical. By the same grace that God gets thanked for all the supposed "good" he does, he should get plenty of "fuck you"s for being a petty, malevolent bastard.
@BroccoliDog Thats the message but anything that reflects real life for laughs is satirical. Its Trey Parker and Matt Stone thats all they do. They even reference The Lion King because its a satire of Musicals that are bouncy and catchy. Take whatever message you want but it is a satire.
@chipmunkmad08 Lol I totally understand. :P I'm a very devoted Catholic and I am making my Confirmation in about three weeks, but I LOVE this song, it's funny :D and catchy :)
@Whyhellotheresexy It's supposed to be like that. Every song in the Book of Morman references a showtune or famous broadway song. For example; 'You and me but mostly me' is a song made to sound like Defying Gravity. That's the people who made South Park for ya.
WOW! I heard some of the plays songs and an interview with the writers on NPR... They said this is the song that shows whether an audience member will love it or leave it... I love it, and I believe God loves it too... If you don't get it, that's okay too... Hasa diga!
@linuslila Depends what kinda family you have. In my family, this would be acceptable listening for anyone over age 12. We don't mess around. You can keep that Disney garbage, growing children need a healthy dose of reality once in a while. And, with Trey Parker & Matt Stone's consistently thought-provoking material... we'd be doing our kids a serious disservice, if we kept this from them. But, yeah... pretty much.
Look I think everyone is missing the point regardless of whether god exists or not this musical is juvenile and uninspired. Mocking other peoples beliefs is not funny it's offensive and everyone regardless of what they believe should realize that. And before anyone starts saying shit I'm an 18 year old white atheist.
@quixoticcool I don't see how this song specifically mocks anyone's beliefs, though other songs from this musical like "I believe" and "all-american prophet" do. In what way does it?
@quixoticcool This isn't mocking the Mormons, this is actually what they believe. As a fellow atheist, you really disappoint me. You're giving us a bad name by associating with us.This musical is actually brilliant and has never been done before.
@Johnnybravo60025 Mocking someone and saying what they believe are not necessarily mutually exclusive and in fact mocking sommeone pretty much requires saying what they believe.
@Johnnybravo60025 Out of pure curiosity... if you're really an atheist, why do you identify yourself as an atheist? Surely, you understand... that every atheist has a different reason why he/she is an atheist, and his/her own understanding of what that means. There can be no camaraderie amongst atheists, under the pretense of atheism, that doesn't make sense. Isn't it about being an individual; and learning who you, and those imaginary friends in your subconscious, are?
@ChaseManhattan516 I grew up as a Christian for 14 years. During confirmation we visited all different places of worship and learned about other religions as well. I decided at that point that I believed more in science than what sounds more like a fairy tale to me. I really have no problem if someone is religious. Good for them for finding something that helps them get on in life. There are a few certain constant beliefs amongst us atheists that we all agree on though.
@Johnnybravo60025 I gotcha. I was raised methodist, confirmed, never went to church again. In high school, I was on a robotics team. I love science. When I was 10 I wanted to be an astronomer. At 12, I read a book called Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea. After high school, an atheist, I discovered Alan Watts, a fantastically entertaining philosopher. I had an experience. Existence is emotional, science can't explain my feelings, voices in my imagination, my epilepsy. /watch?v=ulFXFVTpCsY
@Johnnybravo60025 You know, I actually think it IS a fairy tale. It has brilliant actors, who come on and off stage, giving thrilling, and emotional performances. Whatever "it" is, this existence has ups, and downs. Story structure... just like a wave. And, it all seems to follow a formula... it's a monomyth. Just like Star Wars, or LOTR.
Maybe, life is one big musical. And, you're acting so well... you don't even realize you're acting. What if you could break character? Who are you really?
@quixoticcool there is nothing mature about musicals, it's a form of entertainment - for maturity one can always listen to Wagner - lol - looks like even grand opera does not require Maturity
i've seen the show, it's FUN, and it does not mock anybody in particular, it mocks the believing in general - 'faith' required to accept the dogma, regularly something quirky and bizarre (in any religion!), something funny! - got it?
if you are so mature, why are you atheist and not agnostic?
@branko1b It does mock people in particular, all those who have religious beliefs. I am an atheist because I don't believe in having oh well I don't know as my position on the existence of god as far as I'm concerned until I can believe in god I don't believe in him and am thus an atheist.
@branko1b he's probably both. The literal definition of "agnostic" does not explain belief, only knowledge. Most that would identify as agnostic are atheist as well.
@eggertstwart you are right - the 2nd "believes" should have been "knows" - i still think it is a reasonable distinction regarding the "character allowance" here - made for 18 yo ... huhhh (blush)
i disagree with your assertion though, and with (for me, oversimplified) Dawkins') view on distinction in question; i think, that (Huxley's) distinction has its purposes, even if it results in "slitting hears" - in other words: i'm rather prone to accept Russell's "confused views"
@quixoticcool you see (this is all for your education), when you say "whether god exists or " you hop in you own mouth - an atheist (as you say you are) is certain in his/hers knowledge that it DOES NOT exist. he firmly believes in non-existence of any divinity
an agnostic believes there is NO Jo, Joseph, Mohammed, Jesus, Tammy, Benny,... who can perceive better then any other human being, esp. to tell us what (any exact) divinity's exact intentions are
@branko1b I'm afraid that you have clearly been poorly educated an atheist is quite literally one without god just like a polytheist is one with many god and monotheist is one with one god. Thus I not currently believing in any god am an atheist
@quixoticcool i do not wish to argue with you, making that distinction between atheism and agnosticism was unnecessary and silly on my part - i apologise for that
regarding you statement that the show is immature and that mocks people beliefs: re maturity I have already addressed that
re mocking: yes it does mock people's religious beliefs - that's why it is funny - it is not the first time religious beliefs are mocked - i find 'Russell's teapot' very funny, hope you w ... cont.
...would not find BR immature - well before anybody would dare to mock them, people with beliefs tortured, burned or even mass murdered people with no (or with different) beliefs - org. religions are still very powerful - they still impoverish and, in some parts of world, murder people who merely differ; there are still wars to impose one 'belief' on..."ding-dong" is just a mild aspect of the same horrible principle of 'right faith' - why not mock it?!
@branko1b In those times and areas of the world religion was and is a sort of second government that just like the state provides protection and support to it's people in darker times and places those with the same religion are the only people you can trust as others have no moral compunctions against harming you so of course religious violence existed/exists a "holy" wars are no more contemptible than regular wars are often fought for similar reasons and are often just as justifiable
@quixoticcool I think it's juvenile to think they're merely mocking mormonism. It's constructive criticism. It clears the air, for a dialogue between people of all faiths. Just like we're doing right now. Sharing thoughts, ideas, & feelings. This is how we grow, and evolve. 4 years ago, I was an 18-year-old white atheist. But, something happened to me. I found my imaginary friend, forgotten since childhood. And, suddenly felt that I was walking around inside my own brain. We're the same being.
@ChaseManhattan516 You can't provide constructive criticism about someones religious beliefs that's just telling them that their idea of how to live a good life and have a good afterlife is wrong, you can't just tell a religious person they're wrong and they should change their beliefs and expect to have a civil conversation about it.
@quixoticcool It's a touchy subject, sure... but, you can't just avoid it altogether. We know that a lot of mormons have seen the musical. From what I hear, they mostly enjoyed it. Thus far, no one has tried to kill the creators, or bomb the theatre. A lot of people leave refreshed, perhaps... perhaps... a little enlightened, and happier about their faith. Where's the harm? The song "Turn It Off" confronts a major problem within these communities. If it really offends you... turn it off.
@quixoticcool Now, you say you're an 18-year-old atheist, so I know your opinion is going to be shit. But, before you call anything "uninspired," you have to realize... every idea has been done before. There are a hundred different Led Zeppelins... South Park steals from the Simpsons, Family Guy steals from South Park. Matt & Trey draw a lot of inspiration from Monty Python: /watch?v=fUspLVStPbk
An atheist at 18 is prematurely closed-minded. Inspiration? Imagination? Where does it come from?
All religion stems from primative people lacking knowledge in math and science attempting to explain the world around them. Why religion still lingers on today, baffles me. It's all a steaming pile of $hit.
@nightmareluver71559 what god? a divinity of some kind? whose divinity? it is extremely unlikely (to the point of utterly ridiculous) that any, some such, divine being would in fact exist, you know...:)
that is funny - the imaginary-friend's sense oh humour is not quite the point here
@dtowngirl109 you should not be seeking to your parents computer when they arew\ away - it is not not only immature and inane, but very ungodly (or rather, against one's dignity) to call someone you don't know "a douche bag"
your parents do not only neglect to secure their computer (of their children), but have neglected your upbringing too - otherwise you would not be barging into exchange between adults with ungodly comments
@branko1b I'm twenty. I'm an adult. Besides. You were definitely being a douche bag, asshole, whatever you want to call it. Don't act like you are high and mighty above me.
@branko1b Wow, that was arrogant. You should see a doctor about that entire your-own-head you have wedged so far up your rectum. That seems pretty brutally painful man. What else would cause a person to behave like that? I know not.
@ambrose30 what is happening here?! i merely replied to nightmareluver's post (with no antagonism) my point was not whether there is a god or not, but that religious people miss the true point of the show - which is that their faith (a mockery) is being mocked...
than, i have someone calling me a douche bag (now "asshole") - i didn't know such words are allowed on you tube?!) - now her parent, from who she has obviously only started to learn rudeness has joined in - if .. cont. at dtowngirl

an agnostic believes there is NO Jo, Joseph, Mohammed, Jesus, Tammy, Benny,... who can perceive better then any other human being, esp. to tell us what (any exact) divinity's exact intentions are
lim. space, hope you get it

@branko1b I'm afraid that you have clearly been poorly educated an atheist is quite literally one without god just like a polytheist is one with many god and monotheist is one with one god. Thus I not currently believing in any god am an atheist

@quixoticcool i do not wish to argue with you, making that distinction between atheism and agnosticism was unnecessary and silly on my part - i apologise for that
regarding you statement that the show is immature and that mocks people beliefs: re maturity I have already addressed that
re mocking: yes it does mock people's religious beliefs - that's why it is funny - it is not the first time religious beliefs are mocked - i find 'Russell's teapot' very funny, hope you w ... cont.

@quixoticcool cont.. (pt.2)
...would not find BR immature - well before anybody would dare to mock them, people with beliefs tortured, burned or even mass murdered people with no (or with different) beliefs - org. religions are still very powerful - they still impoverish and, in some parts of world, murder people who merely differ; there are still wars to impose one 'belief' on..."ding-dong" is just a mild aspect of the same horrible principle of 'right faith' - why not mock it?!

@branko1b In those times and areas of the world religion was and is a sort of second government that just like the state provides protection and support to it's people in darker times and places those with the same religion are the only people you can trust as others have no moral compunctions against harming you so of course religious violence existed/exists a "holy" wars are no more contemptible than regular wars are often fought for similar reasons and are often just as justifiable

@quixoticcool I think it's juvenile to think they're merely mocking mormonism. It's constructive criticism. It clears the air, for a dialogue between people of all faiths. Just like we're doing right now. Sharing thoughts, ideas, & feelings. This is how we grow, and evolve. 4 years ago, I was an 18-year-old white atheist. But, something happened to me. I found my imaginary friend, forgotten since childhood. And, suddenly felt that I was walking around inside my own brain. We're the same being.

@ChaseManhattan516 You can't provide constructive criticism about someones religious beliefs that's just telling them that their idea of how to live a good life and have a good afterlife is wrong, you can't just tell a religious person they're wrong and they should change their beliefs and expect to have a civil conversation about it.

@quixoticcool It's a touchy subject, sure... but, you can't just avoid it altogether. We know that a lot of mormons have seen the musical. From what I hear, they mostly enjoyed it. Thus far, no one has tried to kill the creators, or bomb the theatre. A lot of people leave refreshed, perhaps... perhaps... a little enlightened, and happier about their faith. Where's the harm? The song "Turn It Off" confronts a major problem within these communities. If it really offends you... turn it off.
ChaseManhattan516 1 month ago
@quixoticcool Now, you say you're an 18-year-old atheist, so I know your opinion is going to be shit. But, before you call anything "uninspired," you have to realize... every idea has been done before. There are a hundred different Led Zeppelins... South Park steals from the Simpsons, Family Guy steals from South Park. Matt & Trey draw a lot of inspiration from Monty Python: /watch?v=fUspLVStPbk
An atheist at 18 is prematurely closed-minded. Inspiration? Imagination? Where does it come from?

All religion stems from primative people lacking knowledge in math and science attempting to explain the world around them. Why religion still lingers on today, baffles me. It's all a steaming pile of $hit.

Attn Atheists and Theists:
Religion is a personal relationship with god, so shut the fuck up about your god, and keep it to yourself.
Similarly, no one gives a fuck you don't believe in (a) god, it doesn't give you bragging rights, brownie points, or penis size.
There, now everyone can shut up.

@nightmareluver71559 what god? a divinity of some kind? whose divinity? it is extremely unlikely (to the point of utterly ridiculous) that any, some such, divine being would in fact exist, you know...:)
that is funny - the imaginary-friend's sense oh humour is not quite the point here

dtowngirl109 2 months ago
@dtowngirl109 you should not be seeking to your parents computer when they arew\ away - it is not not only immature and inane, but very ungodly (or rather, against one's dignity) to call someone you don't know "a douche bag"
your parents do not only neglect to secure their computer (of their children), but have neglected your upbringing too - otherwise you would not be barging into exchange between adults with ungodly comments

@dtowngirl109 ...cont. from your ambrose30
if you think it is arrogant to politely point out to a rude person that rudeness is childish
(in such a vocabulary, and imagination, "head wedged in a rectum") you either need to see a shrink or to confess
same for you, young ...- it is very unladylike to call people names, extremely (!!) unladylike!
i do hope you both take my 'arrogance' in the same humour, and Christmas spirit, as take your rudeness
i will not entertain any further obscenities
branko1b 1 month ago
@branko1b Wow, that was arrogant. You should see a doctor about that entire your-own-head you have wedged so far up your rectum. That seems pretty brutally painful man. What else would cause a person to behave like that? I know not.

@ambrose30 what is happening here?! i merely replied to nightmareluver's post (with no antagonism) my point was not whether there is a god or not, but that religious people miss the true point of the show - which is that their faith (a mockery) is being mocked...
than, i have someone calling me a douche bag (now "asshole") - i didn't know such words are allowed on you tube?!) - now her parent, from who she has obviously only started to learn rudeness has joined in - if .. cont. at dtowngirl
