Indoctrination into Paganism through Things like Teletubbies and Recycling

Did you ever think that nice things like cartoons and recycling could lead to paganism?
"...just watch Teletubbies. The indoctrination into things like recycling starts at an early age," says Catherine Hosen, a druid from Kent who watches a lot of CBeebies with her children. "If you start off trying to be environmentally aware, it is not much of a step to seeing all of nature as sacred, and from there to becoming a pagan."

When my daughter was little, I never let her watch Teletubbies because something about the show was strange, but could never put my finger on it. Sometimes I got the feeling that the sounds and sights were almost trying to put people into a meditative state. I also found that many shows for young kids were not really teaching anything useful, just keeping the kids occupied for awhile. What a waste for such impressionable little beings.
