Just a quote from the original post.

Just remember that religion in the past has been used as a method for controlling the less educated masses in the past.

I am not saying education will change your beliefs. I am saying education will make you smarter in who to follow for your leader in any role including religion.

Is building stuff with Legos also a sin? I looked at your EVIL toys of Christmas (which FYI no one really believes Jesus was born December 25th *SATANIC LINK DELETED*) and never saw Legos on that list. I mean from the logic you all proposed to me building anything that uses creativity to build it is evil and a sin.

Just asking?

Yes.

Re: Minecraft: Makes children sex slaves and destroys our economy

Yes.

Yea, Just found the post on page 20 of this forum that leads to Legos.

So..
What isn't a sin?

How about *SATANIC LINK DELETED*?
I mean we have to learn how to build houses some how right or is building houses also a sin?

Re: Minecraft: Makes children sex slaves and destroys our economy

OMFG what the hell are you dam people thinking....


I got to baptist in NZ and cleary you guys a F*** in the head (EX)

How many of you have played miencraft? It's a harmless game where children cannon't play online and where the world is constantly randomly generated therefore making some worlds bigger than earth itself.

You want kids to order McDonald's, watch TV advertisements??

And for your information they took out your so called hell in the game (Nether) because of religious views... See they think about you to. honestly people this game is harmless

I agree with you bro, but the actually is an online mode in Minecraft.

Anyways uh, it's a fun game. I have a feeling you guys looked into it waaaay to far. It's pretty much a digital form of legos.

I like going to Church, discuss timely issues facing those that love Jesus and delivering religious materials with my truck and plane. I also enjoy rebuking heathens in the hope they will turn their black hearts over to God.

Clearly 'fun' in a literal sense is a sin, or they'd be playing minecraft too!

But hey, if they enjoy church and all that, that's cool. To each their own, right?

Re: Minecraft: Makes children sex slaves and destroys our economy

Do you have children and what do they do for fun?
I mean when all the kids get together for birthdays and what not do they play games then or just all sit in a circle staring at each other?
I am just a little confused. According to you and your religion all games are evil?
I understand the enjoyment of church and spreading religious materials but I can not imagine your children honestly feeling that it is all that fun. There has to be some kind of other enjoyment for the children. I.E.: Hide n Go seek?

If that game is not a sin then why is it not a sin?

Re: Minecraft: Makes children sex slaves and destroys our economy

I don't have children, but my fellow parishioners know their job as parents is not to let their children "have fun". Life is serious, so is childhood. Children can study the Bible, do their homeschool work. Boys can help their father with yard work, girls can help their mother in the kitchen. They can sing all the hymns they want on Sunday, and get the fun of sitting at the kid's table listening to our political conversations over some fine supper at special occasions.

What do you want, for our kids to go out shooting heroine, breaking windows and getting pregnant?!

No and I would thank you for not trying to put words in my mouth.
I personally have my kids doing activities that will better their life. I have my kids go to Sunday school when I go to Church every Sunday. I also have sit down time with my children at the dinner table (where they sit with me and my wife as equals) and I discuss with them and my wife the finer topics of life including but in no way limited to: religion and science.
The activities I have my children in that will better their life are activities such as but once again not limited to: Learning how to swim, Gymnastics (generally for girls) to help them develop stronger and healthier bodies, and Self defense courses (generally for both boys and girls) so they will know how to defend them selves if and when the time comes.
I also not only allow but promote my children to do activities (supervised by a respectable adult) that they are interested in. My daughter is learning how to play the violin and she has "Fun" while doing it.
We take life serious. We just want to have our life be an enjoyable part while taking it serious.
Thank you for your time.
I am done now as I have gotten (as close as I can get) a basic answer of what you all see and believe. I hope all your lives are as rich as mine. I hope that your family is as close knitted as mine.

Whoa whoa, were does heroine and breaking windows come from video games?? Actually, now that I think about it, video games are probably one of the safest downtime activities kids could enjoy specifically because they're not running around at all hours drinking and whatnot. I'm not saying kids should stop doing the whole bible and church thing if that's what they really enjoy, but smothering them in a joyless lifestyle can be just as destructive as a responsibility free one. The key here is balance methinks.

Respect for you! You are a true Christian. As for others they are only false.

You are calling him a Christian for telling children to abandon their faith?
