Levi, believe me when I say that I have a proper education in the bible. I studied to be a minister when I was younger

. . and yet somehow failed to learn what Matthew 7:1-5 means (a warning against hypocritical judgment). Or that "Bible", as the title of a book, is a proper noun and should be capitalized.

No, not hatred. Simply incredulity. Do you understand what verse 6 even means? Basically, don't push your beliefs on those who don't share them, because by doing so you become a judgmental hypocrite.

So you're saying that the Bible indicates it would be wrong to barge into a Christian church's discussion forum, uninvited and unwelcome, to insult those who don't share your disbelief in God? Because by so doing you become a judgmental hypocrite?

Yes, you have stumbled onto something there, atheist.

Re: Will Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim be ok to play or will it be evil

Ah. So you believe that passage makes you elitists. Hmm, just like Satanists. Very interesting.

Well it takes someone with a blinkered agenda to think it means don't force your beliefs.

The Bible tells us to be evangelists and to endure people like you who have a false doctrine.

2 Timothy 4:3-5 3For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 5But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

Personally I think pong and Tetris were okay in small doses, but anything later than that just makes me worried.

See, funny thing is, tetris is the essence of communism. we support that now?

Scripture to support this?

... we support that now?

"We"?

Tetris WAs around during biblical times? No, there is nl scripture, its just the history of the game. It was created in the Soviet state of Russia. If was a way to ease the population into the thought of communism. The whole objective is to use somewhat different pieces (representing the people) to form uniform lines. Uniformity was the focus of communism, and if one peice didnt work right, everything would fall apart, or the game would end, because instead of creating that line, the peices would stack up till the game was lost.

tetris is the essence of communism.

Do you have any idea how stupid that sounds? Some game that were mostly played OUTSIDE Soviet union (on few years before Soviet Union fell apart) is the essence of a false-ideology that spanned over 100 years.

Forget enemies like Marx, Lenin, Carter and Stalin. Forget Castro and Bay of Pigs. All the time communism was all about Tetris.

I dont care how it sounds, its history. the idea of marxism was to spread toevery corner of the globe, just reason for it to be played outside of the USSR. If you want people to rally behind an idea, why not make a catchy game to instill the thought into someones subconscious . Its been done before, in song and liturature and trends. Its not too strange or outlandish an idea

It's not history. It's cute theory, but against history it's totally off. By the time Tetris actually came out, Soviet Union was in so much trouble that they had to spend all their time and energy to keep their own citizens in line. They could not care anymore if communisms spread outside their borders or not.
In the end, despite all the propaganda they pushed to other communists, Soviet Union was still broken from inside.

Even your uniform line thing backfires as the objective of the game is to erase these uniform lines out of existence. You even get rewarded for wiping these lines out.

Don't get me wrong though. I agree that Tetris and everything else that came out from Soviet Union was utterly evil, just like you said. Is Tetris still essence of communism? No, it is not. It's just another evil game from Satan, just like Skyrim.

And I believe we're losing sight of the origin of Skyrim, which we all know is the 'rim job', a disgusting homosexual act in which they eat the poo-poo.

Re: Will Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim be ok to play or will it be evil

Ive been reading a lot of the video game threads and Im worried. Some of the games are ones I really like particularly Oblivion. U say its evil and I believe u so Ive taken all my games outside to the firepit in our yard and burned them.
Im really looking forward to playing Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim which is from the same ppl who made Oblivion and Im wondering if it will be evil too. If it is should I avoid buying it at all or should I buy it then play it for a bit to confirm its evil then burn it to.
Im praying on this but I hope u can help me find an answer before it comes out later this year.

Play the game it's fun and there is nothing wrong with it

So a game that glories in having dragons (Satan) in it is a good thing?

Do you even read what you write?

Re: Will Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim be ok to play or will it be evil

Hi there folks! I'm new here and I made an account pretty much entirely to post on this particular thread...

Now after reading through all these pages there are a few things I feel the need to attempt to clear up for you:

!) This game is classified as FICTION. It never once says or implies anywhere in this game EVER that anything to do with it is real or to be taken seriously in any way shape or form.

2) The main problem people seem to have with this FICTIONAL work is that there are elements of bad things like Necromancy, Summoning Demons etc... Which I agree with. Yes folks I agree with you, that stuff is bad but something you would of realised had you actually played the game or done any research into this whatsoever is that the game classifies these things as bad too! In game, the people who practice such things are considered criminals and the "bad guys"

3) Dragons = Satan... I honestly don't know where this misconception came from but I can tell you right now that it's not true. Both in real life and in game because:
A) The game makes no reference to Satan whatsoever and the Dragons have their own back story as to their origins (once again FICTION)
Dragons AREN'T REAL.

Now I've played this game extensively and as far as I know I'm still a good person, I haven't felt compelled to commit evil deeds or deviate even a little from being the good person that I continue to be, at the end of the day it is a source of fictional entertainment, nothing more, nothing less.

If you have any questions or comments I will try my best to stick around and clear up any confusion people have over this game as it's a shame to me that people are so misinformed about something that is in my own personal opinion very fun and entertaining to do.

I'll give you a hint, as this is a Christian forum, it might have something to do with the bible. However, it's no misconception, it's a fact.

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
