Soul singer Isaac Hayes quits "South Park"

[QUOTE]
Veteran soul singer Isaac Hayes, voice of the libidinous character "Chef" on the satiric cable TV cartoon "South Park," said on Monday he was quitting the show, citing its "inappropriate ridicule" of religion.
"There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire ends and intolerance and bigotry toward religious beliefs ... begins," Hayes said in a statement.
Hayes, 63, a devoted follower of the Church of Scientology, did not mention a "South Park" episode that aired last fall poking fun at Scientology and some of its celebrity adherents, including actor Tom Cruise.

 

Church of Scientology......... that explains everything.

 

wow..... Are they "celebrities" because of scientology or are the into scientology because they are "celebrities"..?

Must be doing something right cause they are are friggen loaded! Must be the aliens

 

This whole ordeal is such a crock. All you have to do is read what Trey and Matt said, and the point really hits home. Isaac Hayes is being a HUGE hypocrite. I've already gotten over the fact he quit; what'll be more interesting is how the show deals with it!

I can't wait to see what he hopes to land in the way of jobs after this, as South Park pulled him out of the gutter and put him back in the limelight. "Hi, my name is Isaac and I wrote the 'Shaft' theme song and.......I was the voice of Chef on South Park and.........um....

 

Don't forget, he was on the Dead President's soundtrack!
