So Isaac Hayes is leaving Comedy Central's 'South Park' due to what he calls "intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs". He continues by saying "Religious beliefs are sacred to people, and at all times should be respected and honored". Sounds like an acceptable and perfectly logical reason to quit right?

According to the entertainment news sources, he made this decision due to a show satirizing his so called 'religion' - Scientology - that aired last November. (see it here)

According to one of the show's creators Matt Stone, Hayes' reasoning has nothing to do with anyone's religious beliefs but his own. "This is 100 percent having to do with his faith of Scientology... He has no problem - and he's cashed plenty of checks - with our show making fun of Christians."

If Isaac Hayes is concerened with intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs, perhaps he could use his celebrity to defend a religion that has been around longer than weird Hollywood actors and is taking a beating from all sides...Islam.

I didn't see any comments coming from him after papers around the world printed the cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed as a terrorist.

And by the way, South Park makes fun of everyone and everything. If making fun of Scientology is the only thing the show has done that made you want to quit, it doesn't say much about you as a human being.
