Sorry, thought that the ‘my other complaints are’ disclaimer made it clear that these were my views...

I assume that by ‘small minority of religious groups’ you mean me ; ) Personally it doesn’t cross my family policy (not sure if I have one). I have just always appreciated the way lego stayed clear of both actual states (in terms of warfare) and religious issues (in terms of death and after-life) and I also prefer the more classic lego ‘factions fighting over treasure’ to the newer lego model of ‘one force bent on the destruction of the other’ (exo-force and now castle, by my first impression). I hail from Northern Ireland, and perhaps that makes me overly sensitive on this issue, but I have never liked two factions trying to eliminate each other in toys...

Again apologies for any offense, I don’t set Lego’s ‘family policy’ and can’t influence it....

God Bless,

Nathan
