BLOG POST #2: Ugly Truth - Story behind Teletubbies

"Time for Teletubbies, time for Teletubbies, time for Teletubbies.". A great way to start your day with 4 cute colored creatures with T.V screens on their bellies, a pet elephant-like robot, and a sun baby. Teletubbies a British TV show, according to Wikipedia was produced on 1997 to 2001 by Ragdoll Productions. The show usually starts at 7 in the morning. And as kids we always do wake up for our morning shows, right? The show was said to be a show for babies in 12 months time or 1 year-old children. Its like a stepping stone or a preparation for school. Tinky Winky, Dipsy, La-la, and Po are the teletubbies we all want to see every morning. As I go deeply to the topic I have search what are "Teletubbies" and found out that Teletubbies are Creatures that lives in Teletubbyland. Other than that Teletubbies can't speak clearly, they communicate with baby talk.  Well, that's some accurate facts, right? 

As the research goes deeply, i have found out that teletubbies is somehow bad for its audience, especially the target. Why? because Teletubbies has a whole different or should i say "dark" it. The show Pushes the idea of "Paganism". First lets define "paganism".

Paganism, according to "What is Paganism?" by Marawolf of the Covenstead, paganism is simply a term covering a lot of religions and belief systems or it is defined as "the old religion". many believe that paganism is not a religion but some people are saying that it is but it does not belong to the "mainstream"  religion. Pagans believe that Earth is the mother of us all. In other words Earth is their "god", but also pagans worship different kinds of gods. It can be anything by nature, a cow, a tree, a block of ice, etc. 

Marawolf stated, "Sadly, when people first hear the words Pagan or Paganism they tend to think, "devil worshiper", or they picture some wild, orgiastic, way-out individual with no regard for what is sacred or for "God"; a cult member who sacrifices babies." 

There are just the stereotypes of pagans but the truth is paganism is a spiritual way of life and its origins are rooted in the ancient nature religions of the world and also pagans has absolutely nothing to do with Satan, demons, or devils. As stated in the article.  Marawolf also added, "Pagans do not believe in the entity Satan, a Christian concept." Maybe true we don't really know. but in the Christian concept if you not worshiping the "one true God" you are with the "enemy". 

In Teletubbies there are 4 extra characters, the baby sun, the windmill, the tube-like speacker , and the elephant robot, in which in three out of those four elements are considered pagan "gods".

In Mythology they have this god, who is one of the most important and complex of the Olympian deities in classical Greek and Roman religion and Greek and Roman mythology. This god is known for being the god of the sun. He is Apollo, AKA Apollyion.  Apollo is according to the movie "Hercules" of Disney Channel. He is the one responsible of the Sun's coming and going or in other words the suns rising and setting. Just like the "baby sun" in our TV show, she is responsible of her rising and setting and every time that she rises the teletubbies also wakes up and plays and when she sets the show end. 

In an article that I encountered, "BBC Teletubbies Sun God Worship" by Chris Constantine. He said "the teletubbies has a living sun (a Halios) in there garden Helios who is also called 

Apollyion the beast from the beast from the pit." 

Jumping the another myth or religion in Christianity. In the Bible , it said in Revelation 9:11 "They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon. (the destroyer)". It just proves that the TV show that time has subliminal messages that cannot be seen by its audience. 

That being said the baby suns presence in the show represents a whole different thing. Not only for being there Joyful baby sun , but a Destroyer from the bottomless pit that our teletubies worship as a god.
