...The bible said don't judge and thats all this site have done.

No, it doesn't. Read Matthew 7. It says not to judge hypocritically.

Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."

...Get your head out of the bible and live a little. There is more to life then just the bible...

That's not what the Bible says.

...Lets not forget that the Christian killed more people in the past then anybody. The Christian did the devils work for him...

Why would the devil want to kill anyone? If the devil killed people, if they were faithful Christians, they'd go to Heaven. That's not what the devil wants. It's his job to get people to sin, so they'd go to Hell.

If you read the Bible, you'd know this stuff.

I have a question thou.
Why did I get an infraction with the reason Glorifying Satan/Satanism in my first post just up here.
When all I did was correcting the thread maker, since it's clearly not the Diablo 3 game from Blizzard.

They don't want to accept the truth. If you don't speak of hate then you get a infraction.

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

As I scroll through this thread, skimming over posts that catch my eye, I can't help but grin as I watch ignorance and fear of something so insignificant take over people. Yet, I also feel regret; not for the condemners but for the condemned.

I'm not sure what all you mean, son, but I find it horrifying that you would "grin" at the demonic force that takes over people. I wouldn't call it "insignificant" considering its consequences are eternal.

Moral, ethical, romantic, and honorable themes are often the backbone of such titles and by giving the control over to the player it really allows an individual to see the consequence of their actions in a harmless and simulated environment. The lesson isn't taught, it's learned through experience and consequence.

But you must agree, when the game is inspiring a player's behavior, the Bible is not.

I mentioned regret earlier. I do not regret that what I've written here will mostly fall on deaf ears; that is to be expected of people like you. I regret the fact that a community based on truth, society, and acceptance is so fearful of something so harmless.

This community is based on God's Truth and only God's Truth. Why should we accept those who work to undermine sharing the Truth with the world? That is destructive, to both the individual and civilization as a whole.

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

Brethren and Sistren,

Recently, my little sister called me up and asked my advice on a problem she's been having. I know she's always looked up to me, considered me to be an excellent role-model and values my advice, so I was happy to provide it. Anyways, apparently her boyfriend has been spending too much time playing something she said he called a "Diablo-clone". I told her she should smash the game cartridge and tell her boyfriend that they both need to accept Jesus and start living like True Christians™. She then sighed and got off the phone, presumably to take my advice. Anyways, I decided to research this video game further, and I can't begin to tell you how horrible it actually was!

Apparently Blizzard, makers of such filthy games like World of Warcraft, Starcraft II and Oblivion, have a horrible series of games glorifying Satan called "Diablo". Apparently there are two sequels, or "clones" as gamers call them, of this game, the most recent having been released in 2009. How this horrifying game managed to get released without widespread calls for it's banning is beyond me!

Here is just a short list of the horrible things this game includes...

• Upon starting the game up, the player is asked to "role-play" as one of three characters: the Destroyer, a tatooed meathead obviously inspired by a member of the BDSM-sodomite community known as a "power top bear"; the Vanquisher, a scantily-clad harlot who gains "levels" by soliciting people for s*x and fornicating with them; and, worst of all, the Scientist, a demon-summoning wizard who builds sex-robots and espouses Darwinian propaganda!
• After choosing to role-play as one of these three characters, the player is then required to choose an "animal partner", which in the context of this game is probably either used as a sacrificial offering to demons or for the player to partake in simulated bestiality with.
• All of the characters are required to use witchcraft and sorcery by purchasing "spells" from some sinister cabal. The player is also NOT allowed to use prayer or faith in the Lord to overcome obstacles!
• The player is constantly encouraged to murder people, steal their possessions, and then sell them or pay a wizard to "enchant" them to become stronger, implying that a life of thievery, murder and Satanism is a valid career option.
• The game is infinitely long! It never ends! It's a calculated attempt by Blizzard into forcing people into Diablo-addiction and a life-time of servitude to Satan!
• The game includes detailed instructions for your character to consult with spirits and summon skeletons. This, of course, is specifically forbidden by Deuteronomy 18:10-12!
• The main plot of the game is to sabotage a mine. What kind of person would want to sabotage a capitalist operation like that? A free-thinking anarchist!

• Finally, the game encourages repetitive mouse-clicking and movement, which can lead young women into a repetitive stimulation of her lady-bits. Blizzards Entertainment wants to train young ladies to m*sturbate!

As Christians, we know that whatever a person does, it should be done for the glory of God.

"Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31

Does playing a game which promotes bestiality, Satan-worship, prostitution and science sound like something that can possibly be used to glorify God? Of course not!! That's why we True Christians™ need to unite and make sure that Diablo 3 gets BANNED and these game programmers can't make any more children into servants of Satan!

I've included a screenshot of the game (which I've carefully censored ) so we can all see what we're dealing with here. Let's get this game cartridge off the shelves of stores EVERYWHERE!

First of All, I'm Brazilian (so excuse my english)
Second, i'm a Aghnostic (For thoso who don't knows, it means i'm not filiated to any church, i only believe in GOD).

I had to post here, since the facts here are so... unnacurrate.

1) A Diablo-Clone is not a sequel, is a different game, that use Diablo's mechanics. Is a SIMILAR game, that's why they call it CLONE. A sucessor is Called Sequell.

For the topics the OP posted:

- Upon starting the game up, the player is asked to "role-play" as one of three characters: the Destroyer, a tatooed meathead obviously inspired by a member of the BDSM-sodomite community known as a "power top bear"; the Vanquisher, a scantily-clad harlot who gains "levels" by soliciting people for s*x and fornicating with them; and, worst of all, the Scientist, a demon-summoning wizard who builds sex-robots and espouses Darwinian propaganda!

Well, thx god you quoted "Role-Play", from ehre we can see that its a act, and nothing that shoudl be taken seriously. Then we get the classes that you call: Power Top Bear, Vanquisher and Scientist?

For Starts, there are 5 classes, not 3.

-> Power Top Bear
What? Does that sentence makes sense? I guess you're talking about Barbarian (Liek the Nordic Ones), that uses his RAGE to unleash powerfull attacks on the forces of hell (yeah, the game teachs you that the forces of hell MUST BE DESTROYED).

-> Vanquisher
Well, anyone can be a "Vanquisher", since Vanquish means to make it to stop exist. So... All classes are Vanquisher

-> Scientist
Well, i think you're talking about Witch Doctor. Its a Reference to the Australian Voodoo adepts that believe in reincarnation, beast domination and hex. That's pagan "magic" thus forbiden by your church (not by theirs). Personally, I don't like voodoo, but that MY opinion.

For the Other 3 classes we get:

Wizard: Uses Energy Attacks to destroy his enemies. (Magic)
Monk: A Holy (there it goes again) warrior that using only his beliefs and his body strenght, he smites the hell forces.
Demon hunter: A hunter especialized in hunting Demons.

So, not a single character is Worshiping any Devil or Satan.
Also, the names of the Hell Lords on the game are: Mephisto, Baal, Diablo, Cain (not the bible one) and Izual. Not a Single Satan.

• After choosing to role-play as one of these three characters, the player is then required to choose an "animal partner", which in the context of this game is probably either used as a sacrificial offering to demons or for the player to partake in simulated bestiality with.
  
  You don't get a Animal Partner ANYTIME during this game, you have human partners, one of them is a Templar (Yes, a TEMPLAR warrior, that serves the church AND the Light.
  
• All of the characters are required to use witchcraft and sorcery by purchasing "spells" from some sinister cabal. The player is also NOT allowed to use prayer or faith in the Lord to overcome obstacles!
  
  FALSE, as said before. Barbarians use RAGE, monks use FAITH (Spirit), Demon Hunter uses ARROWS and STAMINA, Witch Doctors Draws energy from the NATURE and Wizzards use ARCANE powers.
  If you don't like "magical powers" you're not forced to play with a wizzard, you can chose all the other classes.
  
• The player is constantly encouraged to murder people, steal their possessions, and then sell them or pay a wizard to "enchant" them to become stronger, implying that a life of thievery, murder and Satanism is a valid career option.
  
  Another FALSE statement (where did you read this?), all enemies are MONSTERS, DEMONS, DEVILS. The only Human you face are Thieves that want to kill you to steal your Itens, and Cultists (Diablo Worshipers - that i'm sure you all would love to kill right?).
  
• The game is infinitely long! It never ends! It's a calculated attempt by Blizzard into forcing people into Diablo-addiction and a life-time of servitude to Satan!
  
  Actually, the game is rather short, you can easily finish it in 6 hours.
  
• The game includes detailed instructions for your character to consult with spirits and summon skeletons. This, of course, is specifically forbidden by Deuteronomy 18:10-12!
  
  Where, in the name of GOD, is this information, the only book where you can obtain that information is called NECRONOMICON, any other place you find ANYTHING about sumoning monsters is FAKE. Stop Believing in all they say to you...
  
• The main plot of the game is to sabotage a mine. What kind of person would want to sabotage a capitalist operation like that? A free-thinking anarchist!
  
  They main plot of the game is to destroy Diablo, and bring peace to the world. Just because you saw a stupid picture of a naked digital women in a mine, don't create stupid Plots, Who the HELL would create a history about a MINE?
  
• Finally, the game encourages repetitive mouse-clicking and movement, which can lead young women into a repetitive stimulation of her lady-bits. Blizzards Entertainment wants to train young ladies to m*sturbate!
  
  The Only Thing you will get for multi clicking is pain on your fingers, nothing else. Masturbation is a normal thing that ALL teenagers do (yes, you did... stop saying you didn't...)

To Finish, is not a cartridge, games don't use cartridges now, they are either downloaded or bought in a CD.

For the other guy up there:

Your defense of Diablo is telling in what you don't discuss

• One of the character's espouses evolutionary doctrine
• The game's message that sorcery works, prayer doesn't
• The character are encourage to murder and steal to advance themselves.
• The characters participating in the sin of necromancy.
• The games anti capitalism message

Care to address these points?

• One of the character's espouses evolutionary doctrine
  
  I'm not going to discuss Darwin in a Religious Forum, that's just stupid, pic a Theory:
  
  Evolution
  Big Band
  Creation
  Smart Design
  
  Believe any one you want to believe, and stop blaming other for not believing in what you believe. That NOT how the world Works.
  
• The game's message that sorcery works, prayer doesn't
  
  Sorcery Works for Sorceres, Pryers Works for the Templar and the Monk, pick what like you the most.
  
• The character are encourage to murder and steal to advance themselves
  
  Murder and steal from Demons. Not from Humans.
  .
• The characters participating in the sin of necromancy.
  
  There is no Necromancer on this game.
  
• The games anti capitalism message
  
  Capitalism in not a churchs problems, since this is a religious forums, let us stick to that. Or else ,go to china and discuss with the emperor why they should become a Capitalism Society.
  Also, since Jesus said we shoudl ever Share, and that money can't bring happiness, we ALL should be Socialists (Not my Beliefs actualy)
  

Is anyone has anything more to add, and want to keep a nice conversation. Keep the question coming =D

Peace for all.

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

Sorcery Works for Sorceres

Sorcery is a satanic act and will result for eternal damnation in pits of hell.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

As you clearly can see, it's a satanic game.

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

And then this brings me to another point, you sir, do not fully understand the teachings of your oh so important christ, he never condoned violence, he sacrificed for sins, not killed everyone for them, it was god who punished, not christ, are you sure you are really of the christian faith, because you sure need to read up on it.

You sir, do not fully understand the misery of eternal hellfire!

Please tell us what the book we read every day says! Oh, wait, you haven't read it?

Put down the tequila bottle and the game controller device and start reading the Holy Bible. Study it's every word as if your life depended on it (which it does)!

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

Religious Nuts and all, I give you some of the greatest arguments in history!

Read them all and I beg you, make a legitimate argument that doesn't resort to quoting parts of your Holy Book that you cannot prove were said by the person who 'said' them, or saying that I am a dirty homosexual and that I engage in all many of acts. I most likely do, but we can come to that later.

Enjoy.



Remember this one?










As a final piece, I shall quote, as you many people love to do, a couple of figureheads in my life.

Religion looks forward to the destruction of the world…. Perhaps half aware that its unsupported arguments are not entirely persuasive, and perhaps uneasy about its own greedy accumulation of temporal power and wealth, religion has never ceased to proclaim the Apocalypse and the day of judgment.
―God Is Not Great - Christopher Hitchens

The Bible may, indeed does, contain a warrant for trafficking in humans, for ethnic cleansing, for slavery, for bride-price, and for indiscriminate massacre, but we are not bound by any of it because it was put together by crude, uncultured human mammals.
―God Is Not Great - Christopher Hitchens

I am a lover of truth, a worshipper of freedom, a celebrant at the altar of language and purity and tolerance. That is my religion, and every day I am sorely, grossly, heinously and deeply offended, wounded, mortified and injured by a thousand different blasphemies against it. When the fundamental canons of truth, honesty, compassion and decency are hourly assaulted by fatuous bishops, pompous, illiberal and ignorant priests, politicians and prelates, sanctimonious censors, self-appointed moralists and busy-bodies, what recourse of ancient laws have I? None whatever. Nor would I ask for any. For unlike these blistering imbeciles my belief in my religion is strong and I know that lies will always fail and indecency and intolerance will always perish.

"Trefusis Blasphemes" radio broadcast - Stephan Fry

I think faith in each other is much harder than faith in God or faith in crystals. I very rarely have faith in God; I occasionally have little spasms of it, but they go away, if I think hard enough about it. I am incandescent with rage at the idea of horoscopes and of crystals and of the nonsense of 'New Age', or indeed even more pseudo-scientific things: self-help, and the whole culture of 'searching for answers', when for me, as someone brought up in the unashamed Western tradition of music and poetry and philosophy, all the answers are there in the work that has been done by humanity before us, in literature, in art, in science, in all the marvels that have created this moment now, instead of people looking away. The image to me . . . is gold does exist, and for 'gold' say 'truth', say 'the answer', say 'love', say 'justice', say anything: it does exist. But the only way in this world you can achieve gold is to be incredibly intelligent about geology, to learn what mankind has learnt, to learn where it might lie, and then break your fingers and blister your skin in digging for it, and then sweat and sweat in a forge, and smelt it. And you will have gold, but you will never have it by closing your eyes and wishing for it. No angel will lean out of the bar of heaven and drop down sheets of gold for you. And we live in a society in which people believe they will. But the real answer, that there is gold, and that all you have to do is try and understand the world enough to get down into the muck of it, and you will have it, you will have truth, you will have justice, you will have understanding, but not by wishing for it.
From Radio 4's Bookclub - Stephen Fry


So there you go, coming from a British Atheist, to you fanatical Americans. Have fun.


PS. Diablo 3 is a extremely good game, as are other games where you can choose to be either holy or evil. Evil is always the best route. Evil equals more power. Power equals more money. Money equals more happiness. My Ethos, funny, no?

[Pastor Ezekiel]

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

Religious Nuts and all, I give you some of the greatest arguments in history!

Where does it say that "alcohol is a sin" in the Holy Bible?

Jesus Himself imbibed. I know of no Christians who hold such beliefs.

Mormons, maybe. But they aren't Christians of course.

[Rev. Edward Clement]

Re: BAN DIABLO 3: The most SATANIC, SEX-POSITIVE game EVER!

Read them all and I beg you,

No friend, the Bible says that we are to abstain from the very appearance of evil.

1 Thessalonians
5:22 Abstain from all appearance of evil

About the only things that those heathen's books are good for is kinlin at an annual Book Burning Festival. With the approval of Godly Chick-Fil-A it will soon become another place where annual Book Burnings will take place.
