May I ask a question? I found the dolls they make about a year ago. I started making them but with normal things and using clothing that was given to me just to be able to make dolls for kids. Yes I freely give them to any child that wants one. It is a joy to see a little child smile. Ok I don't go along with any of their beliefs as I later found out about them. Is it ok that I make these dolls for children? To me it's a gift from God because he made me able to make them and I make sure to say that they are a gift from God. I am starting to wonder now."
