Jesus dolls rejected from Toys for Tots program

quote:
A company that sells Bible-quoting Jesus dolls said it was surprised and disappointed that the Marine Reserves’ Toys for Tots program turned down its offer to donate 4,000 of the talking dolls.
quote:
According to one2believe’s Web site, the button-activated, bearded Jesus doll recites Scripture such as “I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again” and “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
The discussion (linked below the article) is entertaining in a predictable way, with a disturbing number of posters apparently working from the notion that Christmas is the only holiday celebrated in winter and that only Christians celebrate it.
