What can I say but -- Jesus Christ!

Obviously it is my opinion that The Andy Griffith Show was a very special series, but is it really suitable to be the theme for a Bible class? Although there are few direct references to the Bible, I believe the show is filled with the basic morals and biblical principles taught by the Scriptures. Each show tended to have a good moral theme that was brought out by the story line. Basic values such as character, personal responsibility, honesty, and integrity were routinely exemplified by the show. I believe these characteristics to be uncommon for most television shows past or present. When George Lindsay, who played Goober in the series, was asked about the idea of using the series for a Bible class, he replied, "One of the incredible things about every single episode is that Andy insisted each show have a moral point, something good, lofty and moral. It?s a shame current shows on TV don?t adopt that high road."
