Jodi Eichler-Levine: Outrage at a couple who skipped feeding their weddings guests to pay for Mickey and Minnie to join them quickly spiraled into unwarranted hatred. - NBCNewsTHINK
We need to talk about Disney adults. But not for the reasons you might think.
The outrage over this decision quickly spiraled into hatred for Disney adults more generally. The bride had defended the decision by saying Disney was an “important part” of not only their life “but also our marriage.” Many critics thought this was crazy, and definitely not a good thing. “Disney adults will cause the downfall of this nation, mark my words,” wrote one disparager.
But calling this couple insane overlooks a world of profound practices that happen at Disney. Since 2019, I’ve been researching how the Walt Disney Company intersects with religion. What qualifies as a “religion” tends to be in the eye of the beholder — but Disney is most certainly religion-adjacent. Theof Disneyland in 1955 reflected a “tri-faith America” with its Protestant, Catholic and Jewish chaplains . Ever since, many people have referred to their Disney trips as a “pilgrimage.
For some people — both those who have another “traditional” religion and those who don’t — the promise of magic at Disney and the feelings they get there are powerful. I’ve seen people cry at the fireworks. Many times.
