It does.  The creators of South Park are very Libertarian.

South Parks owns your bookshelf, totally.

Do you watch South Park? 

More so in the recenter episodes, they have a very strong moral.  Most of the episodes are centered around some problem or belief in the US. 

Sorry: they don't have a reasonable or justifed moral.  If they do, the proposed solution is stupid or unreasoned.  Take, for example, their multitues of insults on religion.  They can make fun of them all they want, but they're not proving anything by doing so.

Let me explain Satire to you.  The creators of South Park take an issue to the extreme, even ridiculing it.  By ridiculing it, they force people to think about it.  The point of most episodes is to get people to think of issues. 

For example, the "Me and my future self" episode takes parents' unwillingness to talk to their children about drugs/alcohol to the extreme by showing the parents hiring somebody to pretend to have come back for the past.  The moral isn't "You shouldn't hire an actor to pretend to go back in time", it's "be direct with your children". 

What was the one where they make fun of Family Guy?

You should buy more such as: The Old Man And The Sea, How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents, The Lord of the Flies...

(from me I mean..)

plz /joke here.

Former Assigned reading I don't want?

Your school doesn't loan you the books?  That sucks, we never had to buy in highschool.  Although there are a lot of books that I read that I wouldn't mind owning now..

During the year they do. That was assigned Summer reading.

We were even given our summer-reading books on loan.

Although it is very crude humor ( most of the time ), the episodes usually do have some moral, they aren't there to entertain idiots.

Are you sure?  :D

Why do you have a framed baptismal certificate on your wall...It is meaningless in all instances unless you are catholic where the Church certifies it as authentic and it can be used for legal proof of identity.

Perhaps he's proud of it?  Why else do you frame something and put it on the wall?

Hehe, I was wondering where this thread came from. Thanks iago.

To Nate, my pastor framed it. I didn't feel like putting it into storage and getting it crushed, plus I hate my wall color. I think I'm officially Catholic, but that's not a Catholic baptism certificate, and I don't go to a Catholic church (thats where I agree with you all, church being lame).

Isn't that like saying a Jew going to a Budist Temple to pray/whatever them guys have been up to (I'm thinking world domination, =-o)?

Hell man, I'd live in a monestary for a few months just for the fun of it. Buddhist's are really accepting of other religions in their monestaries / temples as long as you don't wack cockroaches with your shoe, don't call them names, and wear cool dresses. :)
