(from Vid & Multimedia) "Puppeteer’s TV show still on the air despite plot to eat children"

Yes, it says "plot to eat children." Why am I cross-posting it in "Atheists & Agnostics"? Well, here's where it gets relevant -- the puppeteer, at some point, was a regular guest on the Christian Television Network's "Joy Junction."

The OP (by Ian David, if I'm not mistaken) has a youtube clip of the puppeteer (Ron Brown) talking to his dummy about what to do if you're confronted with boys looking at "dirty pictures."

Anyhow, I'm not saying Christianity leads directly to this kind of madness, but I do find it interesting that all of that praying, by both the network's hosts and the audience, for God's help (or favor, or guidance, or wisdom) couldn't keep a pedophile with cannibalistic tendencies from hanging out with their kids, right there at the studios.

Anyhow, here's the original post from Video & Multimedia:
