I agree, Agape.
I used to get creeped out by some of the nursery rhymes when I was little. Incy Wincy Spider, so on...
...then again, I got creeped out by the Oompa Loompas, too. And the witch on Wizard of Oz? Whoah-boy...did a number on me when I was little.
Hey Whirlwind ... what about the "flying monkeys!?"
hno01: They were mean little creatures ...got some real bad dreamson that one too ... even though my Dad told me it was all make-believe.
But seriously... we got to watch out for the music/lyrics our kids listen to today.. It's all in "beat" of the drums ... like some music that have a heartbeat to it...starts out slow then gradually speeds up and can cause the child's heart to beat faster and faster. Also need to pay close attention to the words. The music and lyrics can be so subtle and subliminal that the parents aren't even aware of what's happening to their children. The USSR purposely produced children songs comprised of certain rhythmic patterns, put them on records and then got them into the US. They knew that these songs would produce negative emotions within the children who heard them and could cause depression, anxiety, anger, fear, etc. Now how devilish is that! :evil:
Ever wonder why a large crowd of people at a Beatles' concert got so wild and crazy? It's in the music, the beat or rhythm which caused the crowd to become mentally and emotionally agitated, disturbed, violent ...brought them into a frenzy and way out of control. They had no idea what hit them. Same thing going on today; hard rock, heavy metal, rap, etc.. can be real devilish. Not all music of course, but there's a lot of this kind of stuff out there.
What about movies like Harry Potter. I read an article on the internet called "Twelve Reasons Not To Watch Harry Potter Movies." Boy, Satan is no doubt becoming increasingly bold these days. What I can't understand are the Christians who think it's okay for their kids to watch the Potter movies. Most likely they don't see the spiritual darkness and negative influence they can have on their children.

Satan is the god of this world and he will get his filthy hands into anything and everything that's accessible to him.
Now how did I go from nursery rhymes to this!? Didn't mean to take it this far.
God bless
