Agreed. The church is after all a place of christian worship and ceremony. They have their own traditions that need to be to looked after. As much as the general opinion seems to be against the church and christianity, isn't it at least historically important to try and preserve these things? It would be fatal to their integrity as a church to simply change policy simply at the whim of others. It seems there has been a recent trend to turn the ceremonies of the church into something they're very fundamentally not. Today it's making the funeral into a wake. Tomorrow it's making the baptism into a baby shower. Some time ago it was turning marriage into a civil service. Why not let them have their beliefs, traditions and ceremonies? How is it suddenly right to simply impose ours on them?

More likely, the advertising people realized that they couldn't fit an eyeclops AND a child's head into the same photo, resorting to the use of an adult hand to make the thing look like it could actually be used by a kid. Seriously, the thing is huge. Just look at the youtube video and compare proportions to the website photo!
