Ridiculous "Christian" writing about Pokemon

First of all, its name describes what this game is about. Pokemon is short for "Pocket Monsters". When I was growing up, we were taught monsters were evil, not something to play with. When I was a little girl, the "boogie man" or monsters caused us fear and we did not want to be around them. This game makes some of its monsters out as friendly; thus causing children to embrace certain evil spirits as friends instead of resisting them.

that may be.

the WORST.

argument EVER.

This is also why God hates "Monster.Com" and the Cookie Monster.

I can't even believe the author SAID the dreaded "M-Word"
 
When a child doesn't get the card they want, they feel bad; when they do get the card they want, they feel superior. This trading game is not fostering good Christian traits in children but rather greed, combativeness, extreme competitiveness and obsessiveness.

not good for christian beliefs but perfect for capitalist economy
 
I find it hilarious that the site is "Bible.com" and not say .org. I guess I was right in thinking that christianity is a corperation moreso than an organization.

Dang, harping on video games, Yugioh, and this. They must really hate Nintendo or something??

BTW, I'm a Christian too... I think it's pretty darn silly. Same with the Harry Potter crap.

I should start a new label- Rational Christianity. We could comabt the more egregious examples of fanaticism and stupidity that currently make any Christian look at least slightly insane.

You could make the same argument about any religion being at least slightly insane.

I found that article very humorous, needed a good laugh. 🙂
 
don't you just like fundies?

They quote the bible to prove their point. And they might have the wrong interpretation about it too (I didn't read the site).

 
All fanatics are scary and dangerous.
My GF's father is a christian minister somewhere and I choose not to talk or even say hi to the guy because of all the religious pressure!
