Thanks. I am sure the question of racism as reflected in sets released by
TLC has been discussed to death elsewhere. I guess their licensing
agreements are going to inevitably lead them in a different direction,
especially if they have to break down and release a Mace Windu (Samuel
Jackson's Jedi character) minifig.
I also agree with your statements about the bible. I used to entertain
myself by reading the savage stories of the old testament during boring
sermons in church. The idea of the wisemen having to reevaluate their
beliefs because Jesus was born made me chuckle, and brought back memories!
