Isaac Hayes to quit 'South Park'

Isaac Hayes, the voice of Chef on South Park, is leaving the show, reports BBC News.

Hayes, a proponent of Scientology, was apparently upset by South Park's ridicule of Scientology, the ridiculous religion founded by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard.

Matt Stone, South Park's co-creator, makes it appear as though Hayes is being hypocritical: "In 10 years and over 150 episodes of South Park, Isaac never had a problem with the show making fun of Christians, Muslim, Mormons or Jews. He got a sudden case of religious sensitivity when it was his religion featured on the show."
