And God Said Unto Pinocchio…

“Two years ago, pop culture analyst Mark I. Pinsky unleashed The Gospel According To The Simpsons, a book analyzing the surprising spiritual topics knitted into Fox’s irreverent animated TV farce. Now it’s The Gospel According To Disney… So what’s the substance of Disney’s substitute gospel? Good is always rewarded. Evil is always punished. Overcome adversity. Work hard (even ‘Whistle While You Work’). All things work together for good in the long run. And have faith, faith in yourself but also in an undefined something beyond yourself.” And before you even ask, this gospel applies to Disney’s films, not to its corporate power structure.
