Actor-singer Pat Boone ripped Saturday Night Live over its recent anti-Christian fake movie trailer, “God is a Boob Man,”on Monday, pointing out that the program would never have the guts to air a similar skit lampooning Islam or Mohammad.
On Saturday, SNL aired a fake movie trailer parodying the recent faith-based film God’s Not Dead 2. In the trailer, small-town baker Beth refuses to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple; the gay couple promptly threatens to get their “Jewish lawyer” involved in the case, and want the baker to admit that “God is gay.” Beth goes to court in an attempt to “prove once and for all that God is straight.”
In a statement to the Hollywood Reporter on Monday, the 81-year-old God’s Not Dead 2 star said that Saturday Night Live would never have made similar jokes about Islam, for fear of a violent backlash.
“This skit was outright sacrilege,” Boone told the outlet. “They know if they did this to Muslims they’d have to be put into the witness protection program. There’s nothing sacred at SNL — except maybe the words ‘Mohammad’ or ‘Allah.’

Freedom of speech, remember?
He's correct.
He is right. They are cowards
C U N Hell SNL
Is sacrilege illegal?
It is called comedy unless it is about you or your idols.
Missed the point 2:31. Its about being a wimpy useful idiot. Screw the muslims devils and their false satanic god. Thats the real reason they dare not insult their muslim brothers, because they all worship Satin.
well lets see them do a skit on the Koran then
Actually, Muslims believe in the same God as Christians. It's the Messiah that differs.

No they do NOT. Please educate yourself. The God of the bible is a loving God. The word love is never mentioned in the quran. A loving God would not reveal things to a person such as Mohammed who married a 3 year old child along with his other 11 wives.
This is going nowhere fast. Momma said never argue with a fool.
5:02 duh? The God in my Bible don't command me to kill non-believers, or Jews.
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are all cut from the same cloth (in this chronological order). They are the three Abrahamic religions; each iterations followers tend to believe they are worshiping the revised version of the preceding edition. That is why you find some of the same characters in each document (e.g Mohammed was spoken to by the archangel Gabriel).
For the guy saying the bible does not instruct them to kill 'infidels':
Deuteronomy 17
If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant; 17:3 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded; 17:4 And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel; 17:5 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.
