Talking Jesus Dolls Save Kids from Fire, Brimstone?



Evangelist Mums will love little Paul and Maria's new best friend, the Talking Tales of Glory Jesus Doll. Instead of babbling secular tales of Mudblups and potatoes, á la Teddy Ruxpin and Talking Alf, the Christian BFF spouts biblical verse, psalms, salvation! The doll's peddlers claim that its divine powers can "create a personal connection with Jesus." Take that to your Barbie!

Instead of sticking chewing gum in lil' sis' hair and dropping stinkbombs on the neighbors porch, little kids can now spend their days listening to the doll's sermons and advice: "Love others as much as you love yourself." Sound like fun?

Priced at only $19.95, doll-Jesus comes comes complete with "authentic linen robes," a "coarse shawl" and biblical sandals. Cross and nails not included. [Source: [Buytalkingjesus, via BoingBoing]
