The “Islam Is the Light” doll was widely dismissed — people insisted that wasn’t really what it was saying. And yet here it is, coincidence of coincidences, the same message shows up now in a Nintendo game.
“Video game plays strange message: Toy says ‘Islam is the light,'” from WTHITV, January 27 (thanks to Pamela):
KNIGHTSVILLE, Ind. (WTHI) – Months ago, Rachel Jones was shocked to discover her 4-year-old’s baby doll seemed to have a hidden message: Islam is the light.
Imagine her surprise when a game for her 8-year-old daughter’s Nintendo DS had the same message.
Rachel said she bought the Nintendo game, Baby Pals, as a gift for her 8-year-old daughter after a good report card.
She had no idea the game also contained the hidden message “Islam is the light.”
“We were sitting in the kitchen, and she was playing it,” said Jones. “All of a sudden she looked at me, and I looked at her and she said, ‘Mom, I think my baby said something.’ And so I played it back, and it says ‘Islam is the light.'”
The message on the doll and in the Nintendo game sound exactly the same.
The Nintendo game has an “E” rating, which means it’s suitable for any age.
In a virtual reality setting, the child playing the game can feed the baby or teach it to crawl, among other things. It’s only when the child gives the baby a bath that it repeatedly seems to say “Islam is the light.”…
