So Roland Emmerich's new movie is called "2012," but it should be titled "Dude, Where's my Balls."

In the flick, the director enlists every CGI trick in the book to destroy various religious icons– including the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica and the Christ the Redeemer statue. And for those of you who worship at the altar of Obama, the White House gets nailed as well.

But there was one thing missing among the carnage: an Islamic target.

According to Sci Fi Wire, by way of Cinematical.com, this was no accident. In an interview, the director said he hoped to destroy the Kaaba, an Islamic holy site, but his fellow screenwriter Harald Kloser persuaded him not to.

Here's what the hack had to say about crushing the Kaaba:

"Well, I wanted to do that... but my co-writer Harald said I will not have a fatwa on my head because of a movie. And he was right. ... We have to all ... in the Western world ... think about this. You can actually ... let ... Christian symbols fall apart, but if you would do this with [an] Arab symbol, you would have ... a fatwa, and that sounds a little bit like what the state of this world is. So it's just something which I kind of didn't [think] was [an] important element anyway in the film, so I kind of left it out."

And so, he echoes what I said nearly two years ago on this show: Hollywood screws with Christians because Christians don't behead people. But tweak Islam, and you could end up like director Theo van Gogh - dead on a street with a flag impaled on your chest. Roland picks the safe target because he'd rather live, and by "live," I mean "beat our brains to death with yet more effects-laden dreck." As my guinea pig, Captain Whiskers might say, "All hail the dependable cowardice of our film industry!"

He might say that, if he could talk.

Anyway, the difference between good and evil is pretty clear. Good people might annoy you about having prayer in schools; evil people throw acid in girls' faces if they wish to go to school. Trashing the former, while ignoring the latter - proves that Roland has the gonads of a shrimp.

(Note: I haven't actually seen gonads on a shrimp, but I imagine they're really small.)

And if you disagree with me, then you're probably a racist.
