Those of us who have played D&D are neither convinced nor converted by Mr. Chick’s rhetoric. Indeed, we know better.So I’m curious as to whom he is aiming his message. Is it a scare tactic aimed at the parents of potential gamers? Is it a scare tactic intended to dissuade those who have not yet tried a “game of the imagination”? Is it a scare tactic used to rally supporters to his cause? I wonder how Mr. Chick would react to a game where you role-play a religious zealot on a crusade to stomp out all forms of creative and imaginative thought, instead of actually “spreading the word”. All the while you must build resentment for those with opposing ideals, and whip your supports into mindless – and pointless – frenzies. Hmm.  *Whodat suddenly has a deliciously wicked idea*</blockquote>
