Protests over plans for Jesus cartoon show
But Comedy Central’s plan to develop an animated project about Jesus Christ has a coalition of religious and conservative leaders trying to stop the proposed TV cartoon that puts Jesus Christ in a modern-day context.
The newly formed Citizens Against Religious Bigotry (CARB) said it believes the JC series would be offensive. They accuse the Comedy Central channel of a double standard in mocking Christian figures and beliefs while recently refusing to let South Park depict the Prophet Mohammed for fear of offending Muslims.
