I had to write an article on this for college. When this show started out, the religious community hated it. Now, it's actually taught in some Sunday Schools. You can see my article online at dadblogit.com.

He that's pretty good. The Simpsons is one of the most meaningful shows ever, only some don't seem to get that. Good job.

there is a book called the gospel according to the simpsons which explores the themes used in the simpsons

how ironic they hated it now they teach it
wait what religon are the simpsons? christains right? but lisa is a buddist?? iv never seen her do any buddist stuff
#i think simpsons have gone a bit awkward

Best line in the Simpsons on the topic of religion

Homer: Oh my god it's the rapture. Quick get Bart out of the house before God comes!

Best line in the Simpsons on the topic of religion

When Bart becomes a Catholic, and his family are beginning to dislike his new ideas -

Bart: "People, it's all Christianity. The small stupid differences are nothing compared to the big stupid similarities."

Second best line in the Simpsons on the topic of religion

When watching a biblical story on TV

Homer: "God - my favourite fictional character."

lol


It's nearly Christmas!

Best religious quote:

Lisa: "The mound people used to worship....turtles"

Bart: "Thank God we've seen sense and worship a carpenter from 2000 years ago!"

No the two best Simpsons religious lines are

Bart - So dad you saw God what was he like

Homer - You know Clean teeth, nice smell a real class act

and

Rev Lovejoy - Homer God wasnt trying to punish you but he was working in the hearts of your friens as they worked to save you wether they be christian (and points to ned) jewish (and points to Krusty) or miscallanious (and points to Apu)

Apu - Hey Hindu there are over 700 million of us

Lovejoy - That's swell
