Pixel: The cartoon says its wrong to cheat. Doesn't say anything about graduating...
The message in itself isn't all that bad:
Don't cheat and don't play violent games.
Problem is that this message is wrapped in a package of "the bad world" vs "us".
The boy could easily have said: Yeah, I don't really like this game, we're outside, how bout we play ball instead? The girl could have said: No thanks. I got this one.
And the concept of having angels jump up and down because she doesn't cheat and he doesn't play video games, that is shear lunacy. The kids should simply do what is right because they feel better about doing the right things. Not because they feel watched and scrutinized by hundreds, if not thousands of angels in the sky. that is just absolutely crazy!
But I guess that what WT is expert at. Start from a small innocent good idea and make it cultish to the extreme.
I thought Watchtower had given up on those Sofia and Caleb cartoons. I just watched it thinking how my 2 youngest kids would see it. Watchtower just doesn't understand kids.
My 2 youngest kids:
- would be baffled that a supposedly smart kid couldn't answer 168/4=___
- play far better vid games on their smart phones than that ancient artifact those boys in the school playground had.
Another "fail" from the borg. Long may it continue.
The message in itself isn't all that bad:
Don't cheat and don't play violent games.
Actually, there was also a strong suggestion that Sofia should not aspire to graduate from university. That part was disgusting.
I wonder how many "hook line and sinker" uber parents will further embarrass their children by following this looney tune to the letter by hugging their children at the doorstep of the school and start to pray with them on the doorstep of the kids school, as portrayed in this clip.
