  • And the slogan is “truth has no agenda” – unless we decide that lying to our children will give them some input into imagination. My kids have an incredible imagination and they have never been lied to about Santa Claus. As a result they weren’t disappointed by finding out the truth later in life. Imagine how it feels to know that your parents lied to you for years!!!! No thanks.

  • I’m lost Girard. She is talking to elves, she’s speaking about a special deal, and she makes a joke about their height. Where is she “using her homosexuality”? If it wasn’t for actions like this one most people would forget that she even is a homosexual. She definitely doesn’t make a big deal about it for the most part.

  • And will you also use that logic for any other company that uses an openly sinful actor (having sex outside of marriage, nudity in films, promoting promiscuous behavior, disobeying parents, doing drugs, hating their brother, not having faith in God)? If so you’ll never buy anything from anyone as near as I can see. No problem, as long as your consistent, otherwise you may want to rethink your position.

  • I’m soooooo offended at this incredible posting of someone who does not follow the laws of God. In fact, there are other commercials that show children that don’t obey their parents (also an abomination), and others who do not have faith in God (and therefore cannot please Him according to the bible), and others who believe that God doesn’t exist. All of them should be taken off the air and eliminated from commercials . . . or is that taking things too far?

    I am a christian and I believe homosexuality is a sin, but this commercial is not promoting homosexuality. It just happens to have a homosexual in it. I find it interesting that people will draw a line on this, but then will quickly back down on other much more serious issues. If we’re going to start drawing lines then we better hold that line at any abominations – not just this one.

  • So, in short, I am completely responsible and therefore I am going to continue the investigation to see who is responsible so that I can put the whole thing around their neck. That’s what this man calls responsibility. . . He’s basically saying that he doesn’t have to answer any questions and shouldn’t be blamed for anything. That’s different than what I was taught responsibility is.

  • This is really getting stupid. I’ve been called a monkey so many times I can’t count, and I’ve seen many others called monkeys by their parents or whoever. Generally it just means you’re referencing guys that do crazy things – I’m guessing that’s probably true. Many, many people just use the word as a random word for people – like “guy” or “dude” or whatever.

    I’m sorry, I know everyone’s saying the same thing, but when are we going to stop all this stupidity and get on with life. I swear there are people who just wait for the opportunity to pounce on someone for an offhand comment.

    OK, now you can attack – tell me what I said wrong. Who did I offend?????

  • Only if you ignore the illegal act of coming into the house in the first place. What exactly are they trying to teach here? I agree that accidents happen, but there are much better ways to teach it then using a story of illegal entry. Especially since that fact was even clarified through the segment.

  • Let’s see, goldilocks breaks the law by illegally entering the bear’s house. While their she eats food, breaks a chair and sleeps in a bed. She is found in the bed when they return. Got it.

    Now, “accidents happen”, yes they do. If my son breaks something in my house (where he is legally allowed to be) then it’s an accident, and should be treated as such. If my son breaks into the neighbor’s house and breaks something in there then he will be punished through the law – the “accidents happen” rule doesn’t cancel the “breaking the law” rule.

    I’m frightened to think about what they are attempting to teach through this segment. I don’t want to be an alarmist, but if all they were teaching was “accidents happen” there are many other, clearer, ways to teach it. This screams of a separate message.

  • Some of those saves were breathtaking, and the teamwork on both teams was incredible. It’s no wonder, when they were done, both teams looked completely exhausted. Good show – my hats off to everyone involved.

  • @Locked this law specifically forbids the courts from considering laws outside of the United States when making a decision. It does not forbid the courts from allowing the parties involved to arbitrate themselves or use an agreed to arbitrator. That has nothing to do with religion, it’s a de-facto contract. The fact that it’s frequently used by religious people is a coincidence, not a precedent.
