And The Moral of the Story...
LANDING CREWMAN #1: This should be the next bunch of kids. So far, the boss has recruited and robotized kids all over the country. His master plan is almost completed...[quoted at Comic Book Resources]
LANDING CREWMAN #2: Think of it. He's got thousands of kids so brainwashed, they aren't capable of doing ANYTHING but carrying out his plan. It's that VOICE of his...When he gets that special vibration in his voice it's like the kids are drawn to him by the very power of his words. (See note, page 4 Ed.)
Moralism, a seemingly harmless practice, is actually a noxious gas...[quoted at Intent]
Yes, there is great harm when the truth of a text is manipulated to force a lesson on the minds of children. The practice lacks integrity. No, sharing is not taught in this passage.
But a greater harm than forcing a moral on a text can occur.
