Are Veggie Tales Ungodly?!

[tv1a]

I would love your opinion of SuperBook. Robots in Bible times. Instead of complaining what was wrong about the videos, why not take that time to discuss the principles the video is trying to teach? Just a thought.

It has been a looooong time now, but I remember Jonah and the whale. The only thing similarity to the real Bible story was that there was a character named Jonah, he ended up in a fish and there was a town called Nineveh. That is what concerns me.

I personally wish they would just make cute cartoons about moral kid things and not try to tell "Bible stories" that have nothing to do with the Bible. Little kids get in their mind, after watching the same DVD a hundred times, that they learned a Bible story. If they don't go to church or go to a church that doesn't teach the Bible, but just preaches, they will have lies in their heads instead of truth.

It took me over a week to get one child to believe me over the DVD that the story of Esther that they saw was not in the Bible. Sad. Again, it could have been a cute story, if they had not implied it was in the Bible.

So, I guess I would say that I won't show these to any kids I keep. They imply that they are telling a Bible story and what they show is not even close to the truth.

Just my opinion I can see from what I have read here.
