Logic? 
I await the great floods of people that your church will bring in from your wonderful televised programming. Down here everything costs a mint, so maybe in Wee Patch it's a couple of bucks to put a production on the air.
Still I await to hear of the great revivals that the glowing tube will bring you Praxeas.

That's fine. Go ahead and wait. The resolution has just passed. The UCs are going to leave and circle the wagons and the rest of the UPC will be planting new churches in their backyards and growing while the rest of you all are all eventually just turn on each other when the libs and mods are not around to try to control

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...

sorry, its like that everywhere... Will it cost a little more in, say, New York or LA? Yes... but there are also a ton more people who will see it in those areas than in smaller areas (that's why its so expensive)....
and it isn't even about "great revivals" its about the simple fact that it is absurd to not try it...

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?

Then it's cheaper in Po Dunk? You mean you need a television to reach people in Mud Lick?
