I do not think the Marines want to be in that situation.



If the Marines don't want to be associated with or involved in a conflict arising over christianity, I would think that the best solution would be for them to withdraw themselves from participation in a christian holiday. (Personally, I would think they are much better equipped to make a real bang out of the 4th of July anyway)

As for the talking Jesus dolls.....Toys for Tots asks for unwrapped toys. They could very easily ask those receiving donations if indeed they want their child to have the gift of a talking Jesus doll rather than turn down the donation entirely. My own personal opinion of Talking Jesus dolls.....waaaaaayyyyyyyy tacky!!!!!

I dunno, but from what I heard about Moses, I hope she didn't spend any time in the same box, or they'd have to relabel her....

Status: offline 		I read the article earlier today and the only quote I saw was something from the bible about being "born again."  My intial reaction was "nice PR, saves on catalogs, mailings, kiosk in the mall."  Massive saturation just before the holidays and the article even lets you know that they are only $20 a piece.   Now they can add "As Seen On TV."  It really wasn't an altogether bad plan -- they had to know the Marines would decline thereby giving them an in with the media.  Some folks might even buy now just because:   "No one says NO to Jesus in my house, dammit!"
