Do you know for a fact that a lot of these "UC" have computers or do you even

Computers are not just for the Internet.
I have a cousin who has a computer at home but is not on the internet-doesn't trust it. He thinks too many are watching you surf.
Oh by the way he is not Apostolic!
Computer-many uses. TV-One main use.  |
are VeggieTales evil??
If not, then not all television is evil, because VeggieTales are nationally syndicated now... as are 3-2-1 Penguins (or whatever) and one other Big Idea show....

3-2-1 Penguins is another Christian-aimed cartoon made by Big Idea... They currently have 3 cartoons being made... 3-2-1 Penguins, VeggieTales, and Larry Boy...
VeggieTales talks about New Testament principles (loving your neighbor ("Are You My Neighbor?"), not fearing things 'cuz God is on our side (I don't know the episode, but i has the song that goes "God is Bigger than the boogieman, he's bigger than godzilla or the monsters on tv... Yeah, God is bigger than the boogieman, and he's watching over you and me"), not being greedy/anti-commercialism (the Madame Blueberry episode), and a few others)... Plus it has OT stories (Dave & the Giant Pickle, Josh & the Big Wall, Esther, Jonah, etc.)

So, does that mean there are NO episodes about JESUS CHRIST?

lol, like do they have episodes that are the story of Christ? No, probably because they don't want any of thier vegetable characters to play the part of Christ... Plus they "kiddie-ize" all the stories (Dave & the Giant Pickle... peas with French Accents (monty python reference) taunt them and throw slushies at them in Josh & the Big Wall... Ninevah's sin is they hit eachother in with fish... its silly stuff... they don't want to "kiddie-ize" Jesus)
But they do talk about Jesus, they just don't force it as, by and large, the episodes are made to teach Christian kids the stories in the Bible and Biblical principles, which is what they are very good at... They know they can't save kids by having them watch thier cartoon so they don't pretend to be able to, they just get them interested in God and let God do the rest...
But, the fact of the matter is, every episode goes back to being about something that God said... and since God is Jesus, yes, every episode is about Jesus...

Talk about Jesus? Or teach Jesus? Muslims talk about Jesus, they don't teach Jesus. Jews can talk about Jesus but they don't teach Jesus.

Oh, is this what we can expect from the new Pentecostal programming that is on the horizon?

What part of the Bible? Would it happen to be the New Testament? Could you name how many New Testament stories veggi tales teaches from?

So, they are not looking to lead any to salvation? Then it is... USELESS.

They are doing nothing, and God will use the preacher to win souls, not falsehoods.

What? Since God is Jesus? Do they tell children that God is Jesus? Answer me this do they ever say the NAME JESUS?
