Now, I'm going to just get right to the point, as I am quite enraged right now. Now, my 10 year old son Tristan has been enamored with a TV show and TCG (Trading Card Game) called 'Yu-Gi-Oh!' Now, when I first saw the TV show, I was reluctant to let my son watch it, since it was A. not made in America, and B. Rather violent (the show depicts monster holograms fighting eachother), but I let him watch it because he claimed he would read the Bible every night (which is rather ridiculous, seeing as how he should regardless of his want to watch the show)

He seemed to be rather into the show after a few days, and asked me to take him out to buy some of the cards, so I bought him a starter deck and a few booster packs and thought nothing more of the corruption I was unintentionally giving my child.

Now, a few weeks later, I saw my son watching the show and on it, there was a very tempting looking woman with a very unsubtle pun as her name "Mai Valentine" (satanic anime image removed) a picture of her, for reference.

I immediately turned off the television and told him to go read a book, I was clearly panicked.

As he read, I went to go through the cards that I had bought him, and found other inappropriate things, including the 'Harpy Lady' card. (demonic anime image removed)

This show and its merchandise is desensitizing our children to sex and violence!

I would appreciate your feedback/discussion.

Yu go oh and yu gi oh gx are both anime. It is the work of Satan. Brother, there have been many threads on this. I urge you to use our search engine to find out more!

Hello Terry,
We certainly agree with your position as a parent regarding the poor morals put forth by the yugioh agenda.

Anything we can do to help you correct your children's desire to go down the wrong path to maturity we do with joy, Jesus is here to guide us.

Can you share any additional information about your particular situation?

How are we to know that you are not just some fool here to mock Jesus and play tricks on the good members of this forum? Don't take it personally; you have to understand the nature of the internet and the perverse desire of people to advocate a position that is completely contrary to their beliefs.

Yugioh sucks! I don't think it was the work of Satan, more like the bad writers from... 4kids! oooooOOOOooooo!

[metalisNOTmusic]

What kind of horrible parent are you? Starter decks suck! You should have gotten him a structure deck!
I would recommend Structure Deck 6: Spellcaster's Judgement.
Dark Eradicator Warlock is an amazing card that comes with it.

What kind of satan worshiping pedophile are you?! you are claiming to be a good parent while practicing witchcraft?! You are obviously a rapist who lures children into his home with false yu gi oh tournament's and desecrate's god once they get into your home with the most unholy sin of all time, I suggest you get a structure deck of KJV 1611, All of it is awesome and none of it promote's the foul acts you commit

Now, I don't appreciate where this is going. This thread has quickly divered from it's original purpose, to slandering the very fabrics of the Christian faith. If you want to dispute such knowledge, this is not the place. However, I feel the need to point out a discrepency I've seen here -
If this is a place /solely/ for worship, then why are we on a topic about a warning?
To ward may have its place, but by your word it is not for this forum - by responding you are acting against your own objectives!

[Dr Laurence Niles]

But you saw enough compelling to reply to me now?

Maybe if you thought a little less about anal book fantasies and more about getting hep with the Lord you would not be so hate obsessed to come to this family oriented webcite

Maybe this is a more pertinent verse, given you book/arse fetish:

Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Yours in Christ.

Would you like to explain why exactly being homosexual is wrong? I'd quite like to hear this. Besides your real quote, give me a compelling case as to why it's wrong.

Oh and Harry defeated Voldemort a few years ago, did you hear about it? True story.

Because God hates it. Are you dense?

[DaveRelph001]

Why does he hate it? Give reasons, explain his hatred. Are you dense?

Romans 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

Isaiah 45:9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

It's not for us to question God. What arrogance!

One of my colleagues told me that his boy twins play Yu-Gi-Oh. Quite successfully I might add, they qualified for a national tournament. When they were there, many of the brats who participated had spent over $5000 on their decks!

That is quite a lot of money for violent hentai collectibles. But it doesn't stop there. As is well known ALL the TCG's eventually lead to Magic the Gathering, the Heroine of cardgaming. Once there, it is very hard to stop.

I have seen firsthand what cardgaming is capable of. It can turn intelligent and gifted young people into freaks, doomed to poverty.

Advice to parents:
1. Do not buy cards for your children!
2. If your children are given cards from someone else. Make sure that you rip the cards down the toilet after ripping them in litle pieces. Even better, make your children do it!
3. If other children insist on bringing cards to your house, ban them!

Hello and welcome to our friendly forums!

We don't joke about Salvation©, dear. Ever.

Why not introduce yourself on our Introduction Forum? We'd like to greet you properly.

[pinkflame220]

I must admit I thought this was a joke forum at first...

Really parents...not letting your children watch a watered down Americanized cartoon.

Fact 1: God says to respect everyone and see the good in everything
Fact 2: It's a cartoon...let your kids watch Passion of the Christ and see how desensitized the get to violence, nudity, and hate
Fact 3: Any TCG is just like any other toy/collectible to be given to a child. Moderation and rules on appropriate play. Do you hate My Little Pony too...you should see some of my friends sisters fighting over/with those things...and the cartoon isn't much better!

Fact 4:...and probably the most crucial here...

I am a born again believer. I have been Baptised. I speak in tongues, and have Jesus given Dreams and Visions. (sounds like I'm pretty serious about my faith). Ask anyone who knows me, and they will tell you I am the most Loyal, Faithful, Friendly, Happy, God-Loving Christian out there...

And Yu-Gi-Oh is possible one of my most favourite show of all time.

So before some of you new parents to the forum start questioning If this is something good for your children, think about doing some of your research first. It's really a rather harmless show compared to it's Japanese original counter part. And it teaches some really good values to your kids...much better than the stuff on the TV now that will just melt their brains.

Nice to meet you, too. Is that how you introduce yourselves to each other where you're from?

We don't let our children play with razor blades or run in traffic either.

Wrong. Fact: God says no such thing. God says to love thy neighbor. Please learn who are we to love.

Wrong. Fact: my children have watched the Passion of the Christ and have played characters from the movie for years. I had to stop when little Malachi lost three teeth in one afternoon! And these were his adult teeth! The little tykes love to get into the roles, especially the roles of the Romans for some reason. I think they like to identify with the Enemy, so they can know him and his tricks. Anyway, little Malachi did his very best keeping up with his big brothers, but ultimately they couldn't wake him and the blood was staining the patio bricks so they had to stop playing that afternoon. They have a better idea of what Jesus went through than you do, I imagine.

Wrong. Fact: any collectible to be given a child ought to be restricted to crosses and guns (pistols and shotguns for the younger ones, in my opinion at least). Anything else invites demonic influences.

Wrong. You only think you're been Born Again, but what you experienced was naught but a perfectly natural event involving lots of adrenaline and endorphins. Nothing more. If you look at the circumstances that surrounded that event, and you are brutally honest with yourself, I imagine you will see what I mean. You talked yourself into it, you were expecting it, and so you experienced it. But the "it" you experienced was not the Holy Spirit.

Speaking in tongues demon possessed gibberish, and anyone can dream anything, including what they imagine to be God talking to them personally. You may be friendly and happy, but who you are loyal and faithful to is not Jesus.

This would explain quite a bit.

Oh thank you. All this time it never occurred to anyone to do research first.

[Kooterbreath]

At least something I agree with the Zombies: Yu-Gi-Oh sucks.

And don't you even dare talk about Code Geass.
