    The mom's race seems to keep changing in subsequent episodes of the jw kids films. She starts out Caucasian and then gets a lot darker. It's like they can't make up their minds as to what to do. I don't care whether she's Caucasian or African American or Latino or whatever but it's just weird that they change the race of a character midstream.

      I was that so-called rebel child. I'm not some anarchist or anything, but even now, that "obey" word gives me the ick. I wouldn't even use that description for a dog, yet alone a kid. Even my own mom, during cartoons we'd watch when a kid character did something their parents told them to do in earnest, she'd point out saying, "look at how OBEIDENT he/she is." Even at 5 years old, that rubbed me the wrong way, and I was that kid was was attentive and just listened to my parents naturally, because I figured they knew what they were talking about, because I knew they weren't complete idiots. In fact, I heard that "obedient" word just as many times as I heard the word, "ungrateful." Of course. Funny enough, I wasn't even the picture-rebel kid. I was a band/video game/art nerd who got straight A's and was extremely quiet. XD (I just was an obvious atheist who clearly wasn't mentally succumbing to the indoctrination bait and I liked spooky Goth stuff that was called "demonic.")
      So even if you are the picture perfect child, there is ALWAYS something they can pick at and wear you down till there's nothing left. And they'd still do it. They will even tell you it is their responsibility to "train you up in the truth." So they know damn well they're being overbearing...but the true burden is on THEM for having SUCH a daunting task for being an utter prick for 18+ years. Yeah, and they wonder why some of us don't call.

In the Mormon one, the mom has that soft spoken voice that you only hear from “submissive” women in weird cults like this. I think it’s called the fundie voice. Idk I didn’t grow up in this environment.
      At least in this cartoon the dad helps the son clean up instead of being like “oh you messed up the floor, imma beat your ass”… but yeah this cartoon shouldn’t be shown to kids. They’re gonna feel guilty over the dumbest things.

Look at how he was able to deceive Eve into disobeying God. (Genesis 3:1-6, 13; 2Corinthians 11:3) Satan uses forms of activities and entertainment to mislead and deceive people, and this includes certain cartoons. The toy that Caleb was playing with may have seen innocent on the surface, but the toy was related to spiritism which God condemns. (Deuteronomy 18:10-12) It's important for parents to teach their children from an early age about what is acceptable and unacceptable to Jehovah.--Proverbs 22:6.

      ⁠@@CoolBreeze250 it isn’t though. The Jewish scriptures had voweless version of Gods name them. The intention was to avoid saying the divine name since it was too holy to be said. Later they added the vowels for Adonai to YHWH. Resulting in something like YaHoWa (inaccurate obviously due to this not being Hebrew I’m writing in). This was done to remind people to say Adonai and not the divine name. Eventually this was transliterated over time to become Jehovah. So saying Jehovah is literally saying the wrong name that Jewish people wrote down to avoid saying the true name God as he revealed it. It’s the one word that specifically isn’t God’s name intended to remind people not say the divine name.

    Having said that, JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis wrote stories about magic and wizardry. Yet, JRR Tolkien was RCC and CS Lewis was Christian. Sadly, I somehow think that the mother would not allow Caleb to read the Lord of the Rings or Chronicles of Narnia 😔😔😔

    • @rybakolyavich
      @rybakolyavich 6 місяців тому +2

      It's funny, because the Narnia series was specifically to apply and promote faith in Christianity, even though it also promotes magic. While I do believe magic is not necessarily considered evil, there is a reason that people may believe "God" himself does not like magic. With acquiring magic, humans would be equivalent to God and use such powers for evil or perhaps more, or they would lack faith in God, now that magic can help them instead. This was the reason Adam and Eve were banished from the garden --- they were just as intelligent and knowing as God, rather than their blank slate like before. But concluding this, it doesn't seem to be that magic itself is the problem, people believe it is the problem because it allows others to lose their faith. That doesn't mean magic itself is what makes Christians go nuts, but the thought of being against the idea of being below God that gets them to rat out.

    This has triggered me! Thank God I didn't have Caleb and Sophia but you have a point how JW behave with children, I was shocked up with an elder's wife for the district convention, apparently I offended her when I had innocently asked her if I could have a sleepover with my best friend from the assembly, she was severely innocensed, we had already gone to bed, she woke me up at 2 a.m. to read scripture to punish me for why I shouldn't have a sleep over, I had to read from 2-6 a.m. despite we had to go to the convention all day, and no good manners for the sister whom we have shared the room with keep her up as well. I was exhausted cuz of her, even though I was a baptized witness and I was 15 yrs old, cuz my legal guardian lied to tell her to discipline me when she had the chance I was an orphan my mother just had died, made my day at the convention miserable and I had to tell my best friend I couldn't sleep over but this woman taught me she was mentally unstable. I definitely never wanted to be around this woman again, especially what happened after that, my guardian complained once again cuz of her jealousy cuz her daughter wasn't invited to go on vacation with me to visit this sister in DC cuz she couldn't have her daughter to spy on me so she had this elder's wife to call me long distance to verbally abuse me and threatened me saying she was gonna come to airport to kick my butt in, but heard a click, I realized her elder husband heard her, I had to deflect this woman and explain to the sister I was visiting, I was very scared to go home, apparently the elder barred his wife from accompany my guardian when picking me up from airport. I realized the elder was displeased with her knowingly since I was a passenger that I could raise alarm with the airline about her not to allow her, so my guardian did pick me up and I was relived that she wasn't there was told by my guardian whom was disappointed that she couldn't make it. After that, she didn't show her face at our conventions with our deaf group cuz she was interpreter for deaf, nor did she ever apologize to me for her behavior, apparently her husband was appalled listening to her talk with me and barred her from association with my legal guardian. My own mother wouldn't used the Bible to drill it in me which is overboard but there are plenty of witnesses that do, really causing people to become mentally unstable. I feel sorry for the children now cuz using these videos to inflict mental/physical abuse on children, I'm just glad these videos weren't around while I was growing up but certainly I suffered phyiscal abuse at the hand by my mother too unfortunately. whenever my guardian felt like to verbally abuse me she would lie to others to get others to pull me aside to mentally abuse me every chance she got. I cringe at these videos of Sophia and Caleb. Wait, but it's OK to idol worship these two cartoons and have dolls of them. Cuz they make WT money.

      And people underestimate the "power" of being aligned with "Satan" so often as a kid... It explains a lot of disastrous exit of later teenagers, leaving because they can't handle anymore the life, but still believing, and as they became Satan's creature and they'll be grilled at Armageddon, there's nothing more to lose.

    Notice how in Caleb's imagination, he wasn't worried for his dad about him getting injured, he was terrified that he'd be hurt. And how he imagines that if his mom is upset about the floor being dirty, she'll have a mental breakdown. These parents CLEARLY aren't stable.

    I remember watching the Wizard toy episode as a JW kid and it really changed the way I think when I was younger. As someone who didn’t know their sexuality yet I loved playing with magical princess dolls. Specially my Elsa doll that I had asked for because Frozen had came out that year. Unfortunately because Elsa was technically a magical wizard I thought I had to throw the toy away that my grandmother bought for me because I thought I was disobeying Jehovah. Looking back at these cartoons made me realize how insane it was to tell a child they couldn’t enjoy toys they liked simply because they were attached to something “demonic.” To this day I still remember throwing out a lot of my girly toys because I was ashamed of who I was and how I was made to feel weird for having pony’s and Barbie’s and such. I regret the decisions I made and wished that I was more confident in myself at the time. I don’t blame my mother for any of this because although she did introduce me to JW culture she also separated me from it because she didn’t want me to feel belittled in an oppressive society. Also my mother grew up in a Christian household and was baptized so I’m assuming being a Jehovah’s Witness was never in the cards for her or me.
