Simpsons and Religion

I found an excellent article at "Simpson Crazy." It's about The Simpsons and how the show deals with religion specifically Christianity, here is an excerpt, "As cartoonist Matt Groening's show approaches a new season Sept. 26, it continues to be a source of controversy, now drawing criticism from a Roman Catholic watchdog organization. The Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights cited several jokes about the church. In one case, pressure from network officials this past season forced the show's producers to alter a line about the Catholic Church from the original show when the program aired in rerun this summer." Read the full article it was very intriguing.
