Commercialization and expansion of Narnia? ***BLECH***

I think it's really funny how it's being called a "discreet strategy" to remove the Christian references.

How can this possibly be done in a discreet fashion?
Although when I read the series I didn't know that there was any Christian reference...even though I went to a Catholic school. It's just once you know that it's based on Christianity that these things really pop out, so I wouldn't consider anything all that "direct" a reference.

Honestly, I don't see why anyone would bother to do this. Nobody is going to buy this updated versions as long as the "real thing" is still around. Let's hope harper collins loses massive amounts of money on this. Then maybe they'll have learned their lesson.
