Disney and Druidism?

Was it just me, or was Merlin's hut in Shrek 3 covered in Druid symbols? I saw at least one Triskele on the wall. This raises another question...

If you all remember the religious hype the zealots threw up about the Golden Compass movie. Disney is using Pagan symbols in their movies, why aren't they protesting that? Children might get curious about those symbols and go researching them, and who knows... They might even decide to become Druids. Then again, nothing wrong with that, is there?

Update:

Does it really matter who made the movie?

    Disney did not make the movie, and yes, it matters. The studio that made the movie has not been around nearly as long, does not have the "Disney tradition" behind it to live up (or down) to and therefore doesn't have to pander to "family" (mostly Christian) groups.

    Disney does weird things with their movies, also from the little Mermaid, a crab singing a song with a chorus of " darling it's better down where it's wetter take it from me". Yeah there is no alternate meaning to that statement.

    Don't forget they are perverts too :)

    Remember the recall of the Little Mermaid videos with the very phallic castle that got recalled or reprinted or whatever?
