Well ... I THOUGHT we were, but I'm the one supporting the sinning Christians, so what do I know :noidea:

LOL...now see...that was funny. :noidea:

We all support people who sin...thats the point I was trying to make. I'm not going to boycott one store who makes mistakes, in favor of another store that makes mistakes. In your opinion, BK messed this one up, and you took offense...I get that. But, I just don't understand the concept of boycotting a place over something like this. Especially in light of the fact that no place is perfect.

BK would pratically have to come out with a pro-abortion, kill all Christians commercial to get me to stop eating there. A spongebob squarepants commercial isn't even on my radar of boycottable offenses.

Either way...I'm sorry if you thought I was getting on your case...it wasn't meant to be like that.

It's okay... with intense therapy I'll probably get over it...sigh. :cool:

:thumbsup: AAAWWW Believer I'm sure Axxman wasn't trying to be a big meanie.... :laugh:

Just kidding Axx you know your the man... :emot-hug:

I haven't seen the actual ad but I read the article and I am gobsmacked! :emot-heartbeat:

An ad like that would have NO airtime on Australian TV today but with the way Australia is going, (little America) I am afraid we may one day see this kind of trash as common selling points.

Please..somebody help me. What kind of trash???

It's square butts. Right-angled, sponge-shaped bottoms..phone book implants. If anything this commercial is making a point about how women will modify/alter their bodies after what is popular at the moment. Like spongebob. I'll be the first to admit that there are some racy, over-sexualized commercials out there...we've all seen them. This isn't even close to one of them. It isn't even intended to be sexy...its funny, sarcastic humor.

What's the connection to the food?

Is it aimed at an adult audience or children?

Would it be as funny if it were mens private parts instead of womens body parts?

I don't get the connection. I'm an adult woman with intelligence and I don't see the "intelligence" of the ad and how it would motivate me to buy their food.

I don't get the connection. I'm an adult woman with intelligence and I don't see the "intelligence" of the ad and how it would motivate me to buy their food.

The connection is that they are selling Spongebob Squarepants kids meals...i.e. the kids really like Spongebob and parents might go for a 99cent kids meal.

It was aimed at adults...although my kids laughed at it too. It was trying to get adults to come in and buy a regular priced meal deal...and the bonus was you could get your kids a nicely priced Spongebob Squarepants meal too.

I actually think the commercial would have been just as funny if they had men with squarepants as well. Maybe even funnier... However, it is my personal belief that if it were men in the commercial, we wouldn't even be having this conversation.

It has NOTHING to do with being a woman. It has to do with being a parent who can get a sweet deal on a kids value meal. If you are a parent with kids then you might be motivated to save a couple of dollars at BK when you buy a meal deal...especially if you have kids that like Spongebob. Whether the ad was intelligent or not is subjective.

It tells me that if you eat their food you end up with a big square - well, you get the idea. :D

I don't like any of the ads with that leering Burger King dude. He creeps me out. *shivers*

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
