Christians-how do you feel about using funny animals (& other things) to convey the Gospel to kids?

There's no rule that says cartoon characters have to be human-a large bulk of them aren't. I've seen things like Veggie Tales:

God Rocks:

Little Dogs on the Prairie:

used to each kids about the Bible.

Does using funny animals and other non-human characters go against the Bible?

The Bible talks about making graven images, but would this be considered idolatry?

I am serious-if this goes against the Bible-I won't do it.

Are there any other Born-Again Christians here who have anything to sAY?

What if they had Bugs Bunny types, or Daffy Duck types or Woody Woodpecker types conveying the Gospel to kids? Would you let your kids near them?

Your biggest problem is that kids are smart and see right through the kind of stupid **** you're talking about.

@Gargamel,
Not all kids. Some grow up and become obtuse.

Bay-yow! hahaha Hmm...a point to ponder in the never-ending, mildly diversional quest to uncover the true identity of young-ish Skywalker...

@djjd62,
You and ragman are being sickening with your Asian obsession and skin color obsession.

There's nothing wrong with me liking Asian women. I am not lusting after them.

Asians have BEIGE/brown/tan and yellow/cream skin.

ENOUGH ALREADY.

My mother who is a pastor says I should draw people not animals.

I was going to do a funny animal comic in which the cats and dogs go to Church.

She is saying God used animals in the Bible very infrequently.

I was saying to her anthropomorphic characters aren't real people.

Is creating them a form of idolatry?

People aren't going to worship them. Kids know they aren't real.

@Butrflynet,
When I was a kid, there was a show called "DAvey and Golith" which was always preaching some moral lesson based upon some Christian code. It was produced by a Fundamentalist cult like yours
