Those Wal*Mart Bible Toys
Fr. Longenecker notes with interest that Protestant Evangelicals are now buying statues of various religious figures.
These special statues can only be kept in the toy box; however, he is hopefully that baby Evangelicals, when they grow, will ask the obvious question:
Why do the statues of Jesus have to say in my toy box, and outside of the worship facility? Can I bring the statues to play with them in the worship facility? If I do, can I set them down? Can I set them down on the bench only, or can I set them down on a ledge? If I set them down on a ledge, can it be a ledge that people see when they praise God? Why not, Mommy?
