Mark - The story of David running through the streets naked, I bet NBC would allow Veggietales to do a show on that one!

Basically, I think that Christians who are disillusioned by what NBC has done are living in la-la-land. What did they think a major network was going to do? Realistic Christians, however, should be celebrating the exposure of Veggie Tales. Children who like the show will want the videos and other mechandise, and this is where the ministry will advance...and it will be one HUGE advance! Vischer should be running naked through the streets like David for getting such an opportunity at all. (and if you've ever seen Vischer and his pal Mike Nawrocki, you know this would be a very funny sight, indeed!) :) Jeff…this time Dean beat you to the blog on the Veggie Tales story, and I already commented on this over at his site.
