Let's see if I can post...
I've got a whole list of links I'd like to post up, but I think I'll have to restrict myself to just one for now... best not to jinx it, right?
The Christian Mother Goose.
Now, I've got no problems with people writing books to teach their values. Really. But, please, please, please don't mangle classics to do that. Teach Christian values with Christian stories and verse, and with Christian behaviour, or with well-chosen stories and verse that happen to show your values. Don't ruin a classic riddle by altering it to:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall;
Humpty Dumpty shouted, "Amen! God can put me together again."
That's just not right.
And now, I must adieu, I hope this works.... *crosses fingers*
