[QUOTE="Aholibamah, post: 3645890, member: 53031"] I was talking to a fellow churchgoer the other day--she was mentioning a particular famous person she admired who played Dungeons and Dragons which she thought was messed up. I responded with "Why do you think that?" and she said "Isn't it satanic?" and I grinned and said, "I don't know--I've played it for years. What do you think?" The problem is that there is a lot of ignorance but also some people of whatever religious belief would rather focus on demonizing some other group than actually doing what their spiritual beliefs claim they are meant to be doing. For Christians this includes sharing the message of God's salvation through the story of Christ, being good to our neighbor, praying for others, being charitable to the poor and having honesty and integrity. There are all kinds of problems that any given society has that are way more important than whether or not people are playing a fantasy roleplaying game. [/QUOTE]
