Оңтүстік Парк: Христиан Рок және Авторлық Құқықтар

"Christian Rock Hard" is the ninth episode of the seventh season and the 105th overall episode of the American animated series South Park. It originally aired on Comedy Central in the United States on October 29, 2003. In the episode, the kids start a rock band, but concerned with the fact that people will potentially download their music from the Internet illegally, they refuse to play. Meanwhile, Eric Cartman starts his own Christian rock band, called Faith + 1. The episode satirizes famous artists who have spoken out against copyright infringement, such as Metallica, and also serves as a commentary on how most musicians do what they do mainly for profit gains. Christian rock music is also parodied as being identical to love songs, except for referencing Jesus in their lyrics.

Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Kenny McCormick and Eric Cartman form a band called Moop, but disagree on what direction they should take, as they all like different types of music. Cartman, suggesting that the band should play Christian rock, bases his reasoning on the easy success that the genre has, referring to the success of the Christian rock band Creed as his pitch. However, Kyle disputes this, saying that Christian rock is a terrible idea. The disagreement becomes so heated that Cartman leaves, but not before betting he will have a platinum selling Christian rock album before Kyle's band does. Seeking inspiration, Stan, Kyle, and Kenny illegally download music from the Internet. They are immediately arrested by the FBI and are told of the serious consequences of illegal downloading, namely forcing musicians like Lars Ulrich (drummer of metal band Metallica), Britney Spears, and Master P to lose so much income from music piracy that they must either downgrade their extremely lavish purchases to very slightly less lavish ones or save up until they can afford all of what they want. As a result, Moop decides to go on strike until fans stop downloading illegally and are joined by a large number of musicians, including Britney Spears, Ozzy Osbourne, Missy Elliott, Master P, Blink 182, Metallica, Alanis Morissette, Meat Loaf, Rancid, and even Skyler's band, the Lords of the Underworld. Meanwhile, Cartman enlists Butters Stotch and Token Black to form his new band. Realizing that Christian rock is a perennial top seller, Cartman decides that his band, which he has christened Faith + 1, will join the Christian music racket. Cartman builds the band's repertoire by simply taking vague, generic pop love ballads and changing references like "baby" to "Jesus". While effective, the band eventually comes under some scrutiny when one of the songs involves more passionate and sexual lyrics involving Christ. Cartman manages to manipulate his way out, and the band builds a considerable following. Before long, Faith + 1 celebrates the sale of its millionth album. By this time, Stan, Kyle, and Kenny decide that the satisfaction of having fans should be more critical to musicians than fighting against the fans who make them famous and go to see their concerts. They decide that touring still brings in revenue and call off their strike. However, the other musicians do not follow suit, because, according to Britney Spears, "we're just about the money." Cartman has spent all the money made from their album on a lavish, extravagant awards ceremony to celebrate Faith + 1's success and specifically to insult Kyle for losing the bet to Cartman. However, Cartman's jubilation is short lived. As it turns out, Cartman is told that Christian record companies only hand out gold, frankincense and myrrh records, so Faith + 1, as Christian artists, will never have a platinum album (which is not true in real life), meaning that Kyle technically did not lose the bet and never will. Cartman, enraged at this turn of events, destroys the band's Myrrh album award, screaming "Goddammit!" and "Fuck Jesus!" This blasphemy causes the horrified fans to scream and flee. When Token angrily chastises Cartman for driving away their fans, Cartman insults him by calling him a "black asshole." In response, Token assaults Cartman on the stage before walking away. Believing that Cartman got what he deserved, Stan, Kenny, and Kyle also leave. As Cartman lies moaning in pain on the stage, Butters approaches him meekly. He then farts in Cartman's face, gives him the finger, and says, "Fuck you, Eric," before walking away himself, leaving Cartman all alone to recover from his pain and humiliation.
