  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Although all it comes to my mind is when i see a new candy being made and then this plays in my head, i mean imagine how exciting it must have been when it was first made, while now its common knowledge :)

But there was a comment on this, that Willy Wonka is essentially God, and these children fall into the 7 deadly sin, and since Charlie was good then he takes part in Willy Wonka's creation.

Kinda deep when i think about it OwO. But i can't argue against that shivering feeling from the song though.

I call baloney for the most obvious reason: there's seven deadly sins, but only five children (four excluding Charlie). Also, I had to look it up, but Roald Dahl was an agnostic, so chances are he wouldn't put such allegories in his work.

The internet loves to come up with in-depth theories for the strangest things which are completely made-up, and I think that's one to put next to 'Aladdin' being set in a post-apocalyptic future or that Ferris Bueller was Cameron's imaginary friend.
