I bet there are thousands of years of jewish people talking about this. ANYWAY, so that's some background information on where i'm coming from in terms of the story of the exodus. Okay anyway let's talk about veggietales. Here's another opinion I have abt the biblical story of the exodus: Notice how in the story, pharaoh is supposed to let the ppl go bc the Israelites' god is stronger than the Egyptian gods.
I think it would be much more helpful to talk abt how to have healthy relationships w siblings. Here's a link to Perfect Number's Patreon!

At dinner, Esther is like "the real reason I asked you over here was Haman meets Mordecai on his way home from dinner. Haman wants Mordecai to bow. Meanwhile, king is in bed, and Larry is reading from the scroll, records from the king's life.
They get to the part where Mordecai saves the king's life. King wants to know if they ever did something to thank Mordecai. Maybe send him a card?
Haman thinks it's about him! Suggests a parade. The king really likes him! He's brave, and has rugged good looks! King is like, great idea, do all those things for Mordecai. Haman is really angry. Esther finally gets the courage to tell the king "the real reason" she wants to talk to him PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales. She says Haman wants to banish her family! She pulls out a copy of the law. It has Mordecai's picture!
Yay Esther's people are saved. Narrator says Esther was just a regular girl, and God had such big plans, and she got to be a part of that PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales. It's the antithesis of Typical Christian Culture. XianJaneway oooooh i might be interested in that.
So, first of all, I want to talk about how throughout this story in the VeggieTales telling of it , Esther seems to be just stumbling through, no planning, doesn't even want to be there PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales. I don't know why this bothers me so much- maybe because in Christian culture, ambition is seen as bad, so when you're successful you have to pretend that you didn't really try, it just kind of happened PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales.
Let's compare this to the real story of Esther. Probably she didn't have a choice about "auditioning" to be queen, but once she was there, i would say she did make an effort to win PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales. Though, ahem, in the real story, the "contestants" have sex with the king PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales. It's presented like she tried to tell the king 3 times, failed the 1st 2, finally on the 3rd try she was able to say it.
But in the real story, Esther has a plan. Actually, the narrator did say that some believe if you're doing the right thing, you don't need to be nervous or plan so much what you're going to say. They were emphasizing her conflicted emotions abt whether or not she had the "courage" to do what's right.
Whereas in the real story, she made a plan, knew it was risky, but stuck to it. Another thing I want to talk about: umm, it's almost like this VeggieTales movie shows Esther being nervous to talk to the king bc of her social anxiety, rather than fear of death if he reacts badly PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales. That's quite weird. When I wanted to get someone's attention to tell them something, I just kind of stood in front of them until they looked at me to find out what was up PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales.
In the real story, Esther initially didn't want to go to the king bc there was a very real possibility he might have her killed. Like, I think it's incredibly weird that the issue in this telling of Esther is 'she's just so nervous she can't get the words out', rather than 'there is a very real danger of being executed' PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales.
