Note to Christian fundamentalists--the show is done already.

LOL, I love fundamentalists.
I think Parents have less of a grip on reality than kids. I certainly knew what was real & what wasn't..

Gah...I wish these people would get off this witchcraft dissing stuff... I swear, the more they complain about fictional movies and tv shows just shows the more desperate they are to get publicity and such.

Sigh... this is reallly starting to get on my nerves. Really. They diss Harry Potter, they diss Pokemon, and now they diss Cardcaptors (although in my opinion the only thing "satanic" about CC is what Nelvana did to it ). What are they going to point the finger at next? Tinkerbell because she has magic fairy dust, and therefore is a work of the devil?

If you'll excuse me, I must get to sacrificing that wild boar for the almighty Lord Farquaad, who is the ruler of us all and will surely bring us peace by taking us to the Planet Blisstonia in the year 3000 (I'm kidding, of course!)

Sigh.

This is part of the reason I dread letting people know that I'm a Christian. "Are you one of those guys who see the end of the world in every new rap album?" No. The end of the world will come when it comes. I won't waste my sweat on it.

That's it. I'm calling for a moratorium on Fundamentalists. If any of you guys see Satan in something, please let us figure it out for ourselves. Trust me, we'll find out. For example, the upcoming Scooby-Doo movie, with a CGI Scooby? Now, that's pure, malevolent evil...

This is like that one time in the newspaper where supposedly one of the reasons Christians were against Pokemon was because some of them 'had horns, like the Devil' (Um, WHICH one, buddy?! Maybe Tauros, the one that looks like *A FRIGGIN' COW*?!)

Seriously, this is stupid. I'm a Catholic and I find that dedicating precious time looking for every questionable item in a cartoon or anything of the sort to be that-a waste of time. If you find something that you fear might affect your child negatively, simply talk to your kid about it, explain the bad that comes from it.

To be cautious of your children is one thing-to be all-out paranoid and to annoy the rest of the world with your phobia for anything that doesn't seem 'right' for you is a whole other matter entirely.

Unfortunately, there are people in the world who aren't happy unless they're complaining about something. Especially a stupid something.

Witchcraft? Bah. If they're afraid of witchcraft, they should get schools to stop teaching kids about the Salem Witchtrials. What are they going to complain about next? Lord of the Rings? (I honestly hope not! )

Actually, I think they have complained about LOTR. I dont remember the context, but I do recall hearing about some grumblings.

It would be very amusing if they did. Tolkien was a deeply religious, arch-conservative Catholic!

Who led C.S. Lewis to Christ. Something that we Christians do, is, we are very quick to lable things "demonic". Gets annoying at times.

I'm a christian, but yes..I am terribly bothered by the fact that most christians wont accept fiction. *sigh*. Especially my stories..which I do use a lot of references from different cultures, & beliefs. And while I blantly state "its fiction", I often get attacked, because "it's unholy". Nah..it isn't. It's a non-true story. *sigh*. Satanic my butt.

Yes, I can imagine them complaining about LOTR. Fundamentalists tend to be against us Catholics...>.< Oh, well...I'm used to it by now.

Man I hate this maybe someone should send these extremist a fax reminding them that we supposedly live in a free society and in a free society we have the right to have independant thought and make our own desisions and if they don't like it then they should just go and live in the bush where they can try and convince the wildlife to where clothes. This reminds me of the Sam&Max ep The Glazed McGuffin Affair where someone in the goverment pulled Sam&Max's favorite food thus Sam&Max chase the guy all around the city tring to convince him to bring their favourite food back. Man what I wouldn't give if Sam&Max where real so they could uhhh convince some of these extremist to change their mind.

Well Cardcaptor Sakura does kind of trendialize the magical arts, but I don't know about it promoting the worship of Satan. How do you think they'd react if they saw the unedited stuff? Ya know with same sex crushes?


BTW The Pokemon thing I felt was kinda dumb. Oh well, and yes I do think Tolkien was a Christian, I know he was buddy's with Lewis anyway, and I'm reading the Screwtape letters.
