Hanna Barbera Biblical cartoons

[seaside]

Anybody fan of those cartoons??.  I guess i like the design and simplicity, aswell as trying to input some historical relevance to time period "Despite the stories themselves being purely based on story telling" themselves.

I guess its sorta like imagining Scooby Doo time traveling to Biblical timeperiods in a sense.

No matter how you present bullshit, it's still bullshit.

I honestly didn't even know these existed.

Now if moses had to battle Thundar or the Herculoids, I might be coerced into viewing it.

Nope.  They were produced in the 1980s for children to view.  They're by no means
historically accurate.  You can check out a very critical review of these silly cartoons
from a couple of religious and early childhood  educators HERE.

As a means of attempting to provide easily digestible biblical stories, they failed miserably,
sometimes laughably so, with frequent sub-plots that were never in the bible—but simply
added for dramatic effect.

At the time, 1993, Barbera said:   "In the past six years or so there’s been a movement
back to traditional family values, but they weren’t sitting around reading the Bible. This
series brings the Bible to them in the medium they know best. I have many letters to show
that parents are going back to the Bible and reading up to answer questions their children
have after viewing the tapes".

—The "medium they know best"?  Such as 'Huckleberry Hound',   'Scooby-Doo',  'The Flintstones',  
   or 'Yogi Bear'?       Wow... what great models of education.

Aaron Mate has good reporting on Israel vs Palestine conflict. it really isnt the whole "sky fairy" thing as atheists in USA makes it out to be. Its more a territory conflict. Sorta the way Nazis who invaded Norway. Basically Palestinians sees Jews as trespassers(not to mention Judaism is a racist ideology like Aryanism)
but basically Hebrews simply were better fighters. I guess the main selling point with Israel is trying to pass off as a democracy.. then again Ochlocratic speech is more correct since commie rules in USA or Europe dont really allow everything to pass unless you fight for it. So free speech is false advertising either way

But basically Palestinians dont want them there because they see them as intruders, while Israelis simply wanted a place where they didnt get harassed essentially. So thats what its about.

So i do cringe when people try to make American atheist lame joke that its about religious conflicts, when its not all there is to it.

In other words, you're happy in your ignorance and see no reason to educate yourself.

Communists said the same thing. Which led to lot of genocide lets just say that. Having the control of ignorance and knowledge is part of Authoritarian socialism from 60s and 70s American socialists. Thats why Manipulation and Looting culture is what they are into

But no. I need to know if the source is credible or made by a bias group. So if i have no clue who does it. Then why should i care?.
If i were to link Richard Dawkins (the token atheist) or Jordan Peterson (i dont watch him)

Then atleast you`d know where it came from. Ever heard of source research? Or are American atheists too smug in their own elitism :

And this is precisely one of the issues with zealous religionists —self-inflicted ignorance, fostered by a
fear of any opinions that may just cause them to think a little more deeply about alternate possibilities
that might challenge their own beliefs.

As an atheist, I've taken a bit of time to do some research, and even posted a hot link for you to check
out, challenging the thinking behind the Hanna-Barbera religious cartoon you linked.

So what did you say"

Do you always bury your head in the sand when it's suggested that you might like to check out opinions
opposed to yours?  Are your religious beliefs really that shaky?  Are you fearful that atheism may in fact
have even a few elements of veracity?  You say you're not gonna read the website, but then admit you
don't know anything about it.  What sort of fucked-up logic is this?

And if you're too lazy to spend a couple of minutes checking it out.....

You got that from the main webpage of that site. No university or scholars or people have talked about that website. Meaning its not valid form of information. Its as valid as any internet person.

I dunno. Atheists in USA have tried communism and it failed. So i say its more you who bury head in the sand of the failures of your system. Mainly two party voting system that you are good at ignoring there. Winning yet?

See to me. Having a credible source to read from, criticism or commentary matters. I dont read from random people who can be nitwits.

Even 6 year old me knew that the Bible cartoons sucked.

And, even as far as religious truth, I think Scooby Doo is the better option:

"The big scary magic thing never existed. Turns out, all along, it was the pretension of a masked old man with a stick up his ass."

(Sounds like religion to me.)

Always a natural explanation for things in life. But Scooby Doo was fun to watch on Cartoon Network

You think European colonialism was inspired by "socialism?"  What planet do you live on?

USSR worked like that, even today with Democrats and Benghazi, overall destroying culture is part of it. Atheism leads to socialism as a system since they rely on it all the time
