"A coalition of religious conservatives has formed in opposition to a proposed Comedy Central cartoon about Jesus Christ.

The newly formed Citizens Against Religious Bigotry intends to appeal to Comedy Central advertisers urging a boycott of the TV cartoon, tentatively titled JC.

Comedy Central announced the series last month, saying it would depict Christ as a "regular guy" who moves to New York to "escape his father's enormous shadow," with the father shown as more involved with video games than the real world.

Citizens Against Religious Bigotry says it believes the cartoon will be offensive, citing Comedy Central's previous record of mocking Christianity.

'Why does Comedy Central give such deference to Islam while mocking Christianity?'—Tony Perkins, Family Research Council

It accuses the network of a double standard, pointing out that a South Park episode showing the Prophet Muhammad was not aired for fear of offending Muslims."
