No, no.... I'd most likely agree with you on that one!
But to answer Debbie's reply in addition to yours--I only bought "junk"
Christian merchandise when the kids craved it (tiny plastic pictures of
Jesus with tiny easel, glow in the dark praying hands that for some reason
comforted her when Lora was in her nightmares-stage, that sort of thing).
Most of the "stuff" we bought through the years were things like
high-quality t-shirts with catchy graphics/slogans and top-notch baseball
caps with stylish embroidered emblems. (Lora's favorite, that was worn on
many missions trips, proclaimed "John III:XVI" and "Hellfighter" both
tastely embroidered.) And of course--music. I don't know what the quality
is of the contemporary/alternative Christian music in the UK, but here it is
right up there with Nashville and Hollywood.--
