Watching the cartoon was just the catalyst, for us.
the best part of She-Ra, ThunderCats, GI Joe, was making up a live-action game to play outside,
playing the characters ourselves.

Ahh... flashing back to many happy memories of chasing my friends around the neighborhood, making engine and blaster noises, and holding this aloft to make it "swoop" through the sky:

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
