Mew never died, there where others of his kind which died and became fossiles.

Well, like I already admitted I know little about pokemon.

The DNA from those fossiles where used to create other pokemon.

So we do agree, as I already mentioned before, genetic experiments and genetic manipulation is a big part of pokemon.

How can you critisize pokemon when you know so little about them.

I never poisoned someone, yet I think it is a bad thing to do. Not everything has to be experienced to know it is wrong.

We True Christians believe God created everything and we should not be allowed to play God ourselves. As you yourself now admitted pokemon actually teaches children to play God (genetic manipulation) and we believe that is a very bad message to teach kids.

Genesis 3:5: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

notice it says opened, not slanty and barley visible.

I think this makes it quite clear what God's opinion on Japan is.

MarkHenry, I can appreciate your perspective, but at the same time I notice that you are very consistent in not capitalizing the word "Bible". Why is that?

We know these facts now:

• You played / watched Pokemon a lot
• You insist on not capitalizing the word "Bible", thereby confirming the following:
• We claim that Pokemon activity leads to less Bible activity / respect
• You care more about the lives of foreigners than the futures of our children
• You appear to follow your conscience instead of the Bible

You make some rational arguments, that's true, but between the lines you seem to try awful lot to distract us. There are some mixed messages here...

Re: ATOM BOMB on Japan on January 20th 2013 - good idea?

I can capitalize Bible, but talking about grammar is distracting people from the topic. One does not have anything to do with the other.
Also that i care about the lives of foreigners... They can still accept Jesus, but if we say: "Lets kill them before they can do that", what good do we do?
And one of the few points I have to agree with you on, and why I have a "red" dot in my status:
I follow my conscience more than I follow the bible.

Now please don't comment on the next few lines, it's just what I believe:
Why should i spend my entire life on earth, following some ideas, if all I get is a chance (not a handwritten and signed in person guarantee) to go to a pretty nice place and if by any chance i missed a small tiny part of "following the lord's word" I will go to hell forever. There is no warning. I'd rather enjoy the here and now because there are 3 choices:
Heaven, since my good will outweigh my bad.
Hell, but I will have pleasent memories and know not all of my existance was wasted suffering.
Eternal Death, I die and that's the end. (Thats what I believe, after I die i will stop existing)

It's my life, it's my risk. If I mess up I go to hell, this will be my punishment, not your's. It's up to everyone to take this risk. I don't blame you for trying to be on the safe side.

Re: ATOM BOMB on Japan on January 20th 2013 - good idea?

Plus about my history with pokemon:
I never watched it on TV, I spend my time with math instead of watching Television.
I only played the gameboy games (the very first ones)

When i grew up I left it all behind me because:
It's for kids, once you grow up you have different things to do (education, social life, earn money).
It's boaring after a while, like a movie you watch for the 100th time.

It was good fun, but really, as a kid you don't think about any deep messages, you just play the game. No higher logic there. You don't think about what effects you driving in your car on a highway has on the ground 1 mile under your car do you? You just drive and that's it.

Ah, but you're telling us not to comment on the part that's most interesting? That's just cruel

Re: ATOM BOMB on Japan on January 20th 2013 - good idea?

I know but i just don't want to get off topic.

You should guide children who are younger than 18 (legal age for voting in my country)
Above 18 these people can choose it themselves if they want to play pokemon or not.

In fact... If you place an "R" (restricted) on pokemon articels (games, toys, dvd's) you have your problem solved, kid's won't have access to it, you greatest problem solved. If the parent's buy these things for their kids, well they spoil their kids and you can't controll that really...

That sounds nice and dandy, but it is completely unrealistic. If you see a kid about to cross a dangerous road, do you try to save it's life or do you let it die? If someone is drowning, do you save them or do you let them die?

Exactly, when someone can be saved from death, you save them.

There is however something that is even far worse than death. Eternal damnation to hell. Death is just a fun party compared to that. So why should be save people from death, but stop caring about something far worse than that? Exactly, we won't.

Re: ATOM BOMB on Japan on January 20th 2013 - good idea?

If you worry or not is your choice, as it is my choice if I follow the bible or not. You have my permission to ignore my spiritual wellbeing.

Anyway, how come you guys start talking about pokemon 14 years after its release? It was first made publin 1996. Today is 2010. Why wait so long?

If someone wants to kill himself, are you supposed not to help them?

To be honest, I didn't know they existed at all. Me and my family use the evenings to read and debate the Bible. We do not own a TV. We are not outdated though, we have nice computers and I am going to get me an iPad as soon as they become available. It will be nice to read the Bible on one of those things.

Most interesting, what is "the International Community" going to do about it if one is used? Wag a finger at us? They are there to protect Godly US interests from the yellow peril, not protect the slants.

Having read the above, I suppose you have no further argument?

Luckily, the vast majority of US people are reasonable people, and will never attack a nation unprovoked...unless Bush is in charge.
*cough* Iraq for oil *cough*

Haven't you read this thread? We are not suggesting an unprovoked attack. They provoked us by poisoning our children with those lewd pokemon devils.

Then join our question to get Pokemon voluntarily withdrawn. No one has to die!

Just look at the Toyota problems now... does it look like Japan has good intentions? They should withdraw all products. They are all evil.

I heard about those problems last night. They're genuinely creepy. Faulty accelerators? That sounds... problematic
