Cory,

I agree with you completely. Junk just abstracts us from the truth rather then deliever it.

Nothing about Jesus is junk. Form and function are not the determinants of the revelation of truth to one's conscience. Truth is truth no matter how it's packaged, and the message of everlasting life holds power even on candy wrappers. Besides, the arrival of scripture-laden candies arose out of the desire of Christians to penetrate and dismantle Halloween's dark ethos (look at the growth of congregational support of "harvest festivals" as a substitute for "trick-or treating"). There's simply more involved than you may understand and are critical of. How can any of us be wise enough to correctly map out the mechanics and dynamics of what happens with the Holy Spirit? Why attack something that is designed to attract people to Christ? Children happen to read wrappers on candy. Why else does Bazooka include comics with it's products? Why do many other manufacturers targeting the same demographic use reading material covering subjects unrelated to the products they're printed on (cereal boxes)? Many products bear messages intended to be read by children. It's about time somebody had the courage to produce products bearing the only message they will ever really need.
