Exodus 20:4 (King James Version) "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." ummm...is Wal-Mart gonna be doing the devil's work? |

OH no........Times are getting pretty rough. Things are already tense enough between America's religious zealots and people of a more secular or spiritual nature. Do we really need more Christianity crammed down our throats? This comes off as brainwashing..even that CEO said a "fight for the mind" of children....Ugh  |

There has been a Jesus action figure out for years. I didn't expect this. lol. I guess it could be very educational for kids learning the Bible, and Sunday school classes. But... as for me... I'd buy them and make an action figure movie... hahaha. So many possibilities... so little time. You could always make a super battle... um... ya. I think it's a good idea. It could be fun. Why not?   |

LOL @ The Girl in Your Closet... John the Baptist vs. Chuck Norris??? That would be a battle to see. I'd like to see Esther vs the Bratz Dolls. That's if they make the woman of the Bible too. |

I didn't know they didn't already sell religious figurines. The first thought that came to my mind is "Why don't they stop already?!! But they are not going to stop as long as there is money involved.  |

It's all about the money. The CEO's claim it is about one thing, but they are not exactly giving the action figures away, are they? These have been around since at LEAST the early 80's. And I know the LDS sell them (figures from the book of mormon). Personal note: what a sissy-lion with Daniel! I mean that is sending a poor message to the kiddies. ("Hey look! It's a big pussy-cat!".)  |

Haha. Maniac and I were joking about this in chat the other day. "Cain and Abel Battle Arena." "Moses with the Kung-Fu grip ... Burning bush not included." "Father, Son and Holy Spirit value-pack! Buy one and get the other two FREE." "Revelations play-set. Batteries not included. Caution: employs use of strobe light." -  |

Private enterprise and capitalism is a great thing. Good for the economy and keeps people employed instead of on the public dole.  |

Lmao! I wonder who they used to model the toys after??? How could they know what these people looked like or if they even existed. This is just weird to me. And anything to make a buck, right? Even if it means preying on the devout in order to get paid.  |

What this tells me is that there is a market for this sort of thing, and these guys are filling a void in the marketplace. Wherever there's a lot of money to be made, you can be rest assured there'll be somebody there to make it. I've always said that IF I had no morals; no conscience, that I'd go into the business of religion....or.....diet/weight loss business. But I DO have morals so I can't exploit those who can't tell when they are being exploited. |

If you really think about it; this is not a good idea for Christianity. They're equating Jesus with Barbie and Spiderman - just toys, just pretend. Few parents will foresee the "just pretend" aspect of the toys; however a number of children just may draw that conclusion as they get older; as they mature. The law of unintended consequence is a powerful reality. |
