5.0 out of 5 stars Those Wacky Christians, August 24, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Turmoil In The Toy Box II--Audio (Audio Cassette)

Just when ya thought the world was safe cause ya burned all of your OZZY records, think again. Your Care Bear collction is an abomination in the sight of God, and don't forget to chuck your Smurfs out also! Just another "Paranoid Guide To Christian Thinking" about, get this, Demonic Toys. This is a must for all of you Recreational Christians out there as well as anyone who gets a kick out of Jack Chick Religious Tracts. My fave is that since the book is dated (It was written in the 1980's) It delves into "popular toys" such as Ghostbusters, He Man, etc. Did you know the Care Bear Stare is a form of an Eastern religion? Well ya will if ya get off yer butt and pick up this book!! It's priceless!! Also it has about 2 chapters dedicated to the evils of Dungeons and Dragons!! In a world in which everythings evil and the Hypochristians are trying to force any topic in to making the world believe we are in the "End Times", you cannot afford to not to read this book. Hey, ya mght even chuckle a bit. My Little Pony: Demonic? You be the judge!

3.0 out of 5 stars Some good stuff here, November 27, 1999

Some folks with a limited attention span may find this book laughable. However, as the parent of a young adult, two teenagers and one adolescent, I found this book to contain invaluable advise many years ago. My children, who have never rebelled, have often sited some of the lessons I learned in that book to being the reason they did so well through their growing up years. The advise to never let your children stomp to their rooms in anger was the most excellent thing I ever learned. Thanks to that book I made my children sit in the same room with me while they cooled off. I reinforced that I loved them and wanted to keep the lines of communication and affection open. They did not have the luxury of plotting in their rooms against me. They often mention this as being the best thing I ever did because we never lost touch with one another, even during the tough times. I learned this through the book. Buy it. Every little bit helps!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's Sad How True this IS !, August 29, 2001

I Used to be on the other side - arguing w/ my Christian father about how he was "overeacting" & going "overboard" & how we couldn't enjoy "anything" because "everything was from satan !
WELL - I am now a mother of 2 children ages 7 & 9 1/2- & have MY eyes been OPENED !! WIDELY !!
THIS IS HOW Satan gets in - through -"benign" children's toys, cartoons, etc- Nowadays, it's Pokemon -"cutesy" little characters who have actual names of real demons,needing to defeat the other "demons" to take their "powers"- just as in the real satanic world. THEN -of course, there's NOW Harry Potter - a "so called " inquisitive little boy who's parents "died"in a manner involving an evil warlock -which he finds out later in the 1st book is WHY this particular warlock/teacher hates Harry Potter & has been trying to Destroy him! Parents are DONATING the HARRY POTTER series to our schools- w/ "instructions" to encourage them to be read in the classroom to the students(this actually happened in the public middle school class that my sister teaches in)
These are just 2 of "today's" -"you better not speak out about it because the'world' doesn't know any better & likes it" or your labeled a 'Crazy Christian'.I mean come on- you have to be in TOTAL DENIAL NOT to ( or WANT TO)UNDERSTAND THIS STUFF !!
Kids minds are open & receiving of so much,& it's our job as parents to be "overanalytical" at 1st w/things -taking the TIME -which MOST people don't want to be bothered with unless THEY will receive a benefit from it in some way for themselves(ie:financially, fame,time).Well here you go ! If you follow these principles in "Turmoil in the Toybox II",YOU will have a well balanced, intelligent child who can think "outside the box" that this world puts them in & GOD will Bless YOU for your obedience as HE says(Train up a child in the way he should go ,& when he is old he will NOT depart from it!Prov.22:6 also Psalm 127:3-5)
Please read this book if you value your children !
