Scientology promoted in Bart Simpson's voice

NEW YORK – Bart Simpson is known for prank calls, but Nancy Cartwright, who provides Bart's voice on "The Simpsons," has been heard this week in a phone message using the voice of the cartoon fourth-grader to promote Scientology.

Cartwright, long a member of the church, recorded her 60-second robocall to boost attendance at a Scientology event scheduled for Saturday.

Although she identifies herself, much of the spiel is delivered in Bart's voice, wrapping up with, "See you there, man!"

The Fox network would not comment, but "Simpsons" executive producer Al Jean said the message wasn't authorized by the show, which has never "endorsed any religion, philosophy or system of beliefs any more profound than Butterfinger bars."

---

Anybody heard these recordings?

ITT: More proof that Lysander is a fucking douchebag.

And that's really lame that the bitch would ruin Bart for the promotion of the single stupidest religion I've ever heard of. Yup, even beats Christianity and Islam.

Did you see the PBS special on Mormonism about a month back? If not, you should look for it on their website. Holy shit, those people are lunatics.

If I feel the urge to, I will. At this time, I do not. Is there a rule somewhere that I am not aware of stating that we are or are not to post in certain threads?

we are allowed to post in any thread we would like. however, your reasoning for making an absolutely pointless post in this thread was merely that you could. people usually post in threads not because they can, but because they want to talk about the topic at hand. if your reason for posting in threads is "i can," then i wonder how you come to decisions on which threads to post in -- because in theory, you can post in all of them. why don't you?
