South Park Heat Too Hot for Chef

I can't say I didn't see it coming. After 9 irreverent, take no-prisoners seasons, Isaac Hayes, the voice of Chef, finally thinks "South Park" has crossed the line and he cannot, in good faith, take part in the series anymore.

In a statement issued yesterday, (taken from E! Online) Mr. Hayes said: "Religious beliefs are sacred to people and at all times should be respected and honored. As a civil rights activist of the past 40 years, I cannot support a show that disrespects those beliefs and practices." He asked to be released from his contract due to the show's "inappropriate ridicule of religious communities."

Now, now, I realize it might have taken Mr. Hayes some time to realize that South Park's brand of humor was not exactly of the uplifting and politically correct variety. I mean, it was at least several minutes into the original Christmas Card episode before the writers pitted Santa Claus against Jesus Christ in a bloody deathmatch. You can't blame Mr. Hayes for not seeing "inappropriate ridicule of religious communities" in that very first outing for the South Park boys. It could have taken Mr. Hayes 9 entire seasons to figure this out. 9 entire seasons that included the following episodes:
