False Images We Behold

I'm not promoting Dove, I just think this is a good example of the deceitfulness of the advertsing media.


1: when she puts so much artificial on the outside, shows there's a lot of artificial on the inside (See?), where ought to be filled up with Christ. Because the outside always expresses what's on the inside. "By their fruits you know them." You see? And where Christ ought to be in there, and to care for the--God, and to care for other things, instead of so much artificial pomp, and, you know, green eyelids, and unhuman-looking, and all that kind of stuff... I just don't go for it; and I don't believe the Bible does either. So I like to be just what we are.

Notice now, if she hasn't got any fingernails and wants to put some on, if she hasn't got any teeth and needs some, haven't got an arm and you need one, haven't got hair and you need some, you haven't got these things, that's different.

2: But you notice the women in our day, they don't seem to have that ladylike they once had. They're just like they want to, but there's something won't let them do it. It seems like there's a heaviness. That, you tell a lady that she. should not do such-and-such a thing, and the lady looks upon That and believes That, she wants to believe That, but there's something that presses her the other way. See? Poor thing, I feel sorry for her. She's so caught in such a web of Hollywood, and the advertisements in television, radio, newspaper, on the street, in the store windows, with modern dress and so forth, and the way that other women meet her. And it seems to be that there is something that they just can't pull away from; our young people, our old people, our middle age.
