No, just kidding.

Okay, so the question is this: Are Veggietales misleading for children?

My thesis statement is: When accompanied by additional instruction and clarification as it is needed, Veggietales are not misleading for children.

So my real problem is that I've got all these reasons why Veggietales are a great alternative for young kids as opposed to the garbage that's on TV these days because they remove/replace violent and/or sexual content with something more age appropriate. Unfortunately, that doesn't answer the question.

So I have to have three main points, right? All I've come up with so far is that Veggietales was never intended to replace reading the Bible or going to church/Sunday School.

Anyone else here a Veggietales fan? *puppy eyes*

Me too! And I'm not kidding. See, I'd rather have my kids be aware of things about the world from an early age, so that when they ARE faced with it, they can make proper decisions. I figure its better that way instead of having their conflict climax be what to buy big bird for his birthday

What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.
