**Enlightenment from the *South Park* gang faster than youcan say, "Screw you guys, I'm going home"!**
*The Ultimate South Park and Philosophy: Respect MyPhilosophah!* presents a compilation of serious philosophicalreflections on the twisted insights voiced by characters inTV's most irreverent animated series.
Offers readers a philosophically smart and candid approach toone of television's most subversive and controversial showsas it enters its 17th season
Draws sharp parallels between the irreverent nature of *SouthPark* and the inquiring and skeptical approach of Westernphilosophy
Journeys deep beyond the surface of the show'sscatological humor to address the perennial questions raised in*South Park* and the contemporary social and political issuesthat inspire each episode
Utilizes familiar characters and episodes to illustrate suchphilosophical topics as moral relativism, freedom of expression, gay marriage, blasphemy, democracy, feminism, animal ethics, existential questions, and much more
It's a Bigger, Longer & Uncut version of the highlyacclaimed *South Park and Philosophy: You Know, I LearnedSomething Today*--and is guaranteed to be much funnier thankilling Kenny
