This is not Disney's "first" involvement with the religious community. After all, Walt himself created Mickey Mouse and his companion, Amanita Muscaria (aka Minnie Mouse), and a whole host of critters otherwise found in Sa'ami shamanism.

Then, there's Fantasia! Talk about delving into religion ~ whole bunch of the old time stuff in there Fur Shur.

I think this needs clarified to note that this is possibly Disney's "first" involvement with Christianity!

I have a lot of Disney DVD's of early stuff that have a lot of Christianity in them. Disney's Legends DVD has the short story, Johnny Appleseed, featuring an Angel, the song, "The Lord is Good to Me", and describing Johnny as a devout Christian.
