Ahhh... Ok.

If that is what Mr. LaRoe thinks is a neato toy for kids, then he's an idiot and has no concept of what kids want on Christmas. How many letters do you think Santa is getting this year that read:
Dear Santa,
I've been really good this year. Please bring me a PSP, a bunch of Yugi-oh cards, a Dragon Ball-Z Destroyer set, and a talking Jesus doll.

We're not talking about children who constantly have their choice of presents for Christmas, but those who usually go without Christmas gifts year in and year out. These children are happy to receive
ANY toy that they are given. As I stated prior, I'd be willing to bet every penny that I own that any child who received one of the dolls wouldn't have complained about it's religious context.
If you're a parent and you don't want your child to have the toy, then take it from them. It's a hard concept to grasp, I know, but it works. You're still making a big deal out of nothing.
