These nut jobs can make a religious issue of a children's movie. This is like Jerry Falwell's ridiculous crusade against the Tele-Tubbies.

Is there anything they won't turn into a religious issue? Next thing you know, it's going to be "a violation of the separation of church and state" because math is taught in schools and we all know what happens when too much logic gets involved.
