I saw this on the tube the other night and wondered the same thing myself. I even saw a Simpsons episode from '04 recently in which marge said "This pizza is so awful, even the pope couldn't forgive it, and he's been turning a blind eye to a lot of stuff lately." or something to that effect and I wondered, considering their seeming foreknowledge of 9/11, whether this wasn't also a tip of the hat to those in the know.

Also, scientology was a convenient target, but was their really any provocation for the child molester part? Could that not have been a convenient topical front for their taking a stab at whomever they learned of? I feel like trey n Matt are witty enough not to need to take that low blow unnecessarily, that maybe there was more to it than them being butthurt over losing Isaac to a cult. Maybe they covertly killed two birds with one stone with that episode.
