I guess nothing is sacred.
If I remember correctly, the originator of the series was a Christian minister. I wonder if he's still involved with the show?

The books that the show were based on were written by a minister and his son. Sound like most were written in the 1950's, but didn't get adapted for tv until the 1980's, so I imagine the author had little to ever do with the tv show.
