Posted by TheGoof! on 10/3/2005, 10:00 am, in reply to "Re: Not really" It reminds me of the EXTREME hipocracy of the Religious Right Zealots, when they claim that California earthquakes are God's retribution against the immorality of that state... It's so blatantly hilariously hipocritical when you see, not even a peep, about the effects of Hurricanes Katrina & Rita... I'm not saying they are God's retrobution... I believe they are just what they were, a force & reality of nature, with no specific "devine agenda" attached to them... But I can EASILY see that if the Religious Righteous were consistant they might draw parallels between the Gulf Coasts of Iraq & the USA and the fact that Rita also targetted our HOLY SAINT President GW Bush's backyard... If Nature really had an agenda you'd think God was trying to say something THERE, too? Eh? No... infact, it was Nature... sadly, at it's worst. However, the above does serve as a good illustration... how SELECTIVELY inconsistant the Religious RIGHTEOUS are when choosing their targets of protest. THAT IS MY POINT and that is why I laugh everytime they do it! TheGoof! --Previous Message--

Disney advertises true, but this is a capitalistic country, and not too many people would disagree. Parents are bombarded by ads from every direction and Disney is a miniscule part of the merchandising arena. Parents make descisions to buy or not to buy... to watch or not to watch, other things every single day of the year and NEVER make a peep, but with Disney... somehow there's a no holds barred approach... Disney is Evil, Disney is out to corrupt the children of America, Disney is Blah, Blah, Blah...
: The implication that zeal is somehow wrong,
: when they do it.
:
: Their incessent need?
:
: You have a market scheme that aimed at kids
: over a subject that has a high rate of
: suicide and self harm, the occult.
:
: So, when adults want to protect their own
: children, they have to shut up while Disney
: FORCES their merchandise on the public.
: This public can't speak up, in your opinion.
: They have to go hide their head in the
: corner and not take part of the public
: debate, which Disney made public.
:
: Now that population can't watch movies,
: speak against immorality, protect their own
: children. Why? Because you disagree with
: their thoughts, so they have to go live in a
: cave. That is narrow-minded prejudice at
: its worst.
:
: Debate the public issue in public, let
: everyone have their say. Let the people
: decide. Your way, only your beliefs get a
: say, while you ridicule the other side. I
: think that's pretty shallow.

: Calling them Zealots is quite appropriate.
: But I do get a kick out of their incessant
: need to find Disney as one of their constant
: threats to the proliferation of their FORCED
: belief system. It is also amusing, as you
: point out, how they love to hide behind a
: mask of "protecting" children as
: the impetus of the need to attack. But
: still enjoyable to see when it constantly
: crops up. :-)
:
: Disney is a wonderful avenue for creative
: outlet and recreational pleasure whether
: viewing or enjoyaing the themeparks or
: merchandise, etc..
:
: Maybe they should look in their own backyard
: and leave others alone. I'm just noting the
: latest target o their wrath.

: After all people's religion is important to
: them and their children, especially a wiccan
: religion that goes directly against many
: Christian (biblical) concepts. So, I would
: think that parents would have the right to
: be upset if they felt someone was sugar
: coating a religion to their kids.
:
: Disney has a right to publish their ideas
: and people have a right to condemn those
: ideas. I don't think name calling is
: appropriate, though.

: LOL! The religious fundamentalist
