The Care Bears is "Voodoo masquerading as children's entertainment"

According to at least one writer, The Care Bears is the absolute height of Voodoo infiltration in children's entertainment:

Start with the name first. Who can deny the similarity between the name Care Bears and Carefours, the district of Port au Prince which is the heart of the Voodoo world? Can the cloud city of Care-a-Lot be anything but an idealized 'holy city' of the Lwa - a divine reflection of Carefours? Then consider some of the terminology. The Care Bears constantly want to 'Share until you care', just as the Lwa want to share the bodies of their worshipers. The Care Bears are constantly trying to be children's 'friends', just as the Voodoo Lwa are often referred to by their followers as 'friendly spirits' or just 'friends'. Plus, the cuddly insignias (er, "arcane symbols") on the Care Bears' tummies line up rather nicely with the symbols of the Voodoo gods. Hide your children! (Note: the source article is tagged "Humor and Satire," so it's possible the writer doesn't really believe this stuff - but it was too good a theory not to share)

My opinion- although this theory has its flaws it can't be all wrong! I give this theory a 4/10 what do you think?
