Actually, after watching the episode, I can see why Isaac Hayes was offended. I can't say that he's unbiased. It's obvious that he left because it was attacking something he believed. But it is VERY obvious why he was offended: the show presented Scientology as completely untrue. I don't know if it's done that with any of the other religions. They've made fun of other religions, but I dunno whether they've explicitly called them untrue.
Mormons?

To paraphrase:
"I can't show you these tablets, I have to hide them in my hat. Sure, they are in my hat. Really."

"I lost some pages, can you re-read them for me?"

"No. For some flimsy excuse, I can't re-read the tablets. And it isn't because I was making that shit up as we went along."
