I really think most toys are non- religious in nature. I'd also bet that those of you defending Wiccan Barbie would be upset if a Christian Barbie was introduced. .

We would hear cries of how unfair that is and how toys should be non-religious and how that other religions aren't being represented.
Wiccan has to do with Wicca.
Angels are Christian symbols.
So, yes you did make a connection between the doll and Wicca. And you were wrong, there has been no cries of how unfair it is that there are Christian Barbie dolls.

You seem to be confusing the constitutional mandated separation of Church and State with private and corporate rights.
Mattel has every right to produce a Christian Barbie if it so chooses, and there ain't a darn thing any of us, or the Government, or the Church, or my dog, could do about it; save protest with our paychecks. Mattel could produce a Wiccan, or a Buddhist, or an Islamic, or even a Satanist Barbie if they wanted to. That is their right.
Mattel, or any big business for that matter, makes what sells...period. If a "Wiccan" Barbie sells and a Christian Barbie wouldn't, maybe you should be spending less time in "righteous indignation" and more time figuring out why you have so little influence on people?
