No! This is not entertainment!
This is in-your-face social commentary and personal opinion intended to cover up the ignorance and licentiousness of an animator.
Brent Bozell makes us aware of the garbage mind and heart of one Seth MacFarlane, who, though gifted by his creator with manifold artistic skills, chooses to ridicule the Giver by way of the gift ... something done by mental and spiritual pygmies for over 6,000 years.
According to Bozell ...Actually what follows degenerates rapidly, revealing the hurting soul in MacFarlane, where inner demons rage and in whom cristophobia manifests itself by ridiculing the object of his confliction.On October 5, Fox’s Sunday night [Family Guy] cartoon debuted an episode titled "I Dream of Jesus," a play on "I Dream of Jeannie." Get it? Jesus is a fairy tale, like a genie in a bottle.
The title character, Peter Griffin wanders into a record shop, where he finds Jesus Christ minding the store. Jesus lies to Peter, trying to deny who he is, until Peter threatens to urinate on the albums of Christian artist Amy Grant. Jesus comes clear on his identity and explains he came to Earth "just to get away from the family... my dad just quit smoking and he’s a little on edge." What follows is an entire story that chronicles, in rather amazing fashion, how this lying, slacker Jesus is even dumber than Peter, the greatest idiot on animated television today.
Having been a bone fide ridiculer in my past life, I sense MacFarlane was trying to pull something off that failed to happen ... too bad ridiculing the only good man to have ever existed was his long straw.
