*''The Monkey Suit'': Promotes [[Evolutionism]] and mocks [[Creationism]] in a similar manner to the Worst Liberal film ''Inherit the Wind'', and to a certain extent the propagandized version of the [[Scopes Monkey Trial]].

*''Lisa the Skeptic'': Reinforces the misconception that science and religion are irreconcilable opposites, and has a scene where Lisa mocks Christians as believing in "imaginary angels" for refusing science, and the Christians organizing a riot against science centers, including, ironically enough, a Christian Science Reading Center. It also has a brief homosexual joke where Smithers, believing the end was near, proceeds to kiss Mr. Burns firmly in the mouth.
 
*''You Kent Always Say What You Want'': Kent Brockman says a blasphemous word (the episode never says what word it is), mocks the [[Parents Television Council]] and then has Brockman and Lisa expose the "Fox News conspiracy"
