There are some good observations in this article. The orginal article is actually taken from The Los Angeles Times, but then Mohler adds his commentary. I think Elmo prefers being tickled rather than challenged in the theological realm.
Now, I have never been a fan of Sesame Street (too hyperactive, too loud, too politically correct, etc.) but until today I had never considered one of its characters to be symbolic of civilizational decline and social pathologies.
But then, a character who tells children to focus primarily on themselves just may be the great symbol for the narcissism and self-worship of our therapeutic age. Maybe it is Elmo’s fault after all. I’m convinced.
