There's a big different between being political, and being "in character". Is the game religiously political because you can make Ned preach, or that there is a Christian-oriented church depicted, but really nothing else?

Well there is the Buddhist Temple. ;)

All the gun stuff is just in character with the one-armed guy (can't remember his name) and spiced with a dash of the usual over-the-topness of the Simpsons we know and love.

Just relax and play the game; it's not going to turn you--or anyone else--into a lunatic of any kind.

Well said. I think some people just look for reasons to take offense when something doesn't fit their specific political, religious, or moral agenda. Which is too bad, as that approach to life invariably limits your outlook.
