Re: My Little Pony - Satan's Newest Recruitment Vehicle

Can somebody please explain to me what a brony is and whether God hates them?

The word brony is a combination of the words Bro and Pony. A brony is a (male) fan of the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

And no, I don't see any reason god would hate them.

My my! You mean it? They're so open about their intentions of combining man and pony?

I knew all fans secretly wanted to rape those ponies, but for them to be so open about it...

It's even worse than my Brownie explanation!

Hello.

Oh look, an "unsaved trash" with zero posts. We all know what that means.

So let's begin, shall we?

Rainbow Dash's tail representing homosexuality:

As you can see, this little pony's tail is in the exact same colors as the homosexual flag. A coincidence? Not very likely.

Not exactly a coincidence, but if you look at it logically, it actually does make sense. You must consider what the homosexual flag comes from. Among other symbolism with having the colors of the rainbow, part of the reason is because of its association with flamboyant gay men. The kind of gay men that act like little girls. And rainbows and sparkles have always been associated with little girls.
Little girls.
It just so happens that little girls is the target audience of My Little Pony. Rainbows in a show targeted for little girls does not mean gay.


The inclusion of magic promoting the occult:
The kind of "magic" that Twilight Sparkle practices is not the same kind of magic that the occult practices. It's pure fiction. In fact, here's a direct quote from the show that talks about the difference between occult magic and the show's fictional magic. "My magic, real magic, comes from within. It's a skill you're born with. Curses are artificial; fake magic. It's conjured with potions and incantations."


Furries doing what furries do:
This is like judging the United States from their rapists and serial killers. You're taking a very small percentage of the population and attributing them to the rest of the population. It far more likely that these people already did things like this with fursuits, then made these new pony fursuits to do their weird furry stuff with when they saw the show. Furries make porn and fursuits from all kinds of different cartoons that involve animals, but it's not the cartoons themselves that cause them to do it.



Another thing I thought I might mention. Each episode has a lesson that the characters learn from their experiences, and they debrief each lesson with a letter at the end of each episode. Here's a quote of one of the lessons learned from one of the episodes.
"I'm happy to report that I now realize that there are wonderful things in this world you just can't explain, but that doesn't necessarily make them any less true. It just means you have to choose to believe in them, and sometimes, it takes a friend to show you the way."
Faith. Seems like a good Christian value, doesn't it?

That's all I have to say for now. I have tried to be as respectful as possible in my arguments.

It's no coincidence that these brony attention whores with their sissy obsession with girls' toys never mention God.

Not even a little. There is nothing a True Christian™ believes that can't be explained. Why do you think we take the KJV Bible so seriously? So we don't have to choose one possible idea or another, so we can know from God's Holy Lips, so to speak, what to believe.

Choosing to believe things without explanation is what liberal Christian-wanna-be churches encourage.

Hello.

, but it's not the cartoons themselves that cause them to do it.

Grassy--It's nice you try to be a logical thinker, but, unfortunately you are in over your head.

Let's look at the issues logically here. Homer cartoons, like My Little Pony, appear, there are more homers. It cannot be more clear than this.

If you would just study the facts a little more carefully, the truth might be revealed to you.

Yes, it means we have yet another dimwitted troll who can't figure out the Introduction Forum, but feels a desperate need to berate us for praising Jesus and sharing parenting tips on our private Christian church's discussion forum. In your case, one who doesn't even understand that all magic is "occult", by definition.

On an unrelated subject, did you know that certain vulgar gestures date back all the way to before Jesus' time? Like this one:

And the bit in question: "...790,930 All Totals of All Bible Words"

How do you "Reason" that the Bible manages to forbid a million things, when there are less than 800,000 words in the Bible?

It couldn't be that you've never bothered to read the thing? If so, any condemnation stems from your own ignorance, which is the very definition of hypocritical.

The problem with that logic is that you base it on a false presumption.
"Homer cartoons, like My Little Pony"
The whole point of my previous post is that My Little Pony is not a homer cartoon.

Re: My Little Pony - Satan's Newest Recruitment Vehicle

I apologize if hyperbole confuses you.

Not at all. I was kind of hoping that you'd actually go and read the KJV, to see your other errors, as well.

Let's start with shellfish and the dietary Laws. Yes, it's mentioned in the Old Testament; but it's also covered in the New: Matthew 15:11 "Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man".

If by shaving you are referring to Leviticus 19:27, "Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.", Barnes' Notes on the Bible says:

"Round the corners of your heads - This may allude to such a custom as that of the Arabs described by Herodotus. They used to show honor to their deity Orotal by cutting the hair away from the temples in a circular form. Compare the margin reference.Mar the corners of thy beard - It has been conjectured that this also relates to a custom which existed among the Arabs, but we are not informed that it had any idolatrous or magical association. As the same, or very similar customs, are mentioned in Leviticus 21:5, and in Deuteronomy 14:1, as well as here, it would appear that they may have been signs of mourning." - http://bible.cc/leviticus/19-27.htm


This would have been a proscription on following Arab (ie. idolatrous) fashions, not against shaving in general.


And the Commandment is against working on the Sabbath, not doing "anything". Do you think God would want people to stop breathing on Sunday?


There's plenty enough that's horrific about the Bible without resorting to exaggeration. Read it and find out. Or keep attacking things that you clearly have no knowledge of, that'll really help your credibility.

Unless and until you have spent several years studying, praying over, and preaching the Holy Word of God, you are in no position to lecture anyone here. You don't know what you're talking about.

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.
