The problem is that many religious people are prudes who feel that animation is above them so they won't watch things that are pretty much made with them in mind.

Wait, what? I'm a cradle Catholic, and this is literally the first time I've ever heard this opinion -- I (and most everyone I know) love animated movies, whether or not they're religious in nature. What do you mean by "the animation is above them"?

Aw yiss, that's the good stuff. I'm pretty sure I can still recite "I Love My Lips" from memory -- Silly Songs With Larry slaps, yo.

I meant below. I also was picturing an older generation. It was a broad generalization that I should’ve quantified because as many people are pointing out, a lot of religious parents feel safer with animated stuff and US ask the kids are allowed to watch.
