How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Dear Friends,

The Holy Bible warns over and over again that Satan misleads people by pretending to be nice and good. E.g. 2 Corinthians 11:14 "No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light" but also Genesis 3:4-5, John 8:44, Ephesians 6:11, etc. So often when something seems nice and good, in reality it is here only to lure good Christians away from Jesus Christ. Christians should always be alert for things that seem to be to good to be true.

What I want to tell you about is called "My Little Pony". At first sight this seems like an innocent cartoon aimed at young girls. It is about talking colored ponies and mostly seems to teach children about friendship. It contains no sex, no profanity and seems to be all about working hard and being good friends to each other.

It all looks very innocent:

To be very sure the cartoon would not harm their children, my daughter and her husband consulted their local Pastor. They live in Indianola, Mississippi. Their Pastor didn't see any harm in their children looking at this cartoon, provided they first completed their Bible studies. So their children started looking at the My Little Pony cartoon.

At first nothing seemed wrong. The children seemed to enjoy the cartoon and it even improved how they got along. Them something completely unexpected happened. My daughter's husband started to watch the cartoon as well. At first my daughter assumed this was to make sure the cartoon was suitable for their children, but at some point the husband was even watching the cartoons without their children present. This was a bit suspicious but my daughter is a nice and innocent person so she didn't think anything of it. My daughter didn't even get suspicious when her husband was away from home more and more to go to "meetings". The warning signs were there, but she simply didn't notice them. Innocence can be dangerous, as she would soon learn.

Then one day, something horrific happened. Something no one saw coming. Something almost unimaginable. My daughter's husband told her he had to confess something to her. Then he confessed to her, with tears in his eyes, that he had sinned, that he had gone astray, that he had become a "brony". At first my daughter had no idea what that meant, but then he started explaining it to her in full and horrible detail. It turned out My Little Pony isn't designed for children at all. That's just a cover. In reality it is an unfortunate ploy by Satan to seduce grown man into abandoning Jesus Christ. The meetings he went to, while neglecting his innocent wife and children, turned out to be "brony meets". These meetings apparently consist of grown man dressing like ponies (!) and having forbidden sex with each other. These "bronies" use social media to organize these meetings to have their Satanic orgies all under the false pretense of all liking the same silly children's cartoon. As if anyone would ever believe grown men could appreciate colored girly ponies. Clearly this is something completely different.

I am aware these images are shocking but please allow me to show some examples to make sure you see the severity:

As you can no doubt imagine, my daughter's and her children's life is now completely in shambles. There is a little light at the end of the tunnel though. Now that my son in law has confessed his horrible sins, he is very slowly getting on the right track again. The next few months he will be in a Christian counseling clinic owned by GOP presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann and her husband, Marcus Bachmann. There they will use prayer to rid him of his newfound homosexual urges and he will eventually be re-oriented there and get back on the straight path set out for us by Jesus Christ. And, of course, My Little Pony has been banned from their television set permanently, so Satan can no longer use it to lure their family away from God. Clearly all of us should join forces to do everything in our power to get this horrible filth banned from television. I have already sent out letters to all presidential candidates to make sure they put this issue high on the political agenda and I urge all of you to do the same. I hope everyone will also join me in prayer against My Little Pony so we can rid America of this filth and have children and husbands spend energy on decent Christian virtues instead.

Yours in Christ,

Pastor J.C. Manning, M.D., Ph.D.

I am glad I only have toys that are approved by Jesus. :)

That is terrible. Gaysexual predators will use any trick available to target their prey.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Amen to that!

No doubt these "bronies" only dress up like that to rape little children and vote for Hillary Clinton.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Pastor, that is just so upsetting. I spent the entire day collecting all colorful and seemingly innocuous toys from my children's rooms and we threw them all out. We put them all in garbage bags and took them to the dump outside town. I won't wait until garbage pick up day, and I refuse to leave them on my property. My children were crying and screaming and pleading and begging me to just wait, to just stop doing this and listen for a moment. I took that as a sign from God that they had been decieved by the Dark One and led to believe these toys were simple fun. I will not bring danger into my house. I will not put my children's Salvation at risk. I will NOT serve Lucifer, even in innocent children's toys! I WILL serve my LORD, and I WILL teach my children to do the same or so help me.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

This answers the question I have always had, "Where is the big money?"

I could never understand how My Little Pony could afford to be a big enterprise? I mean they sell little stuff in toy stores, but that does not account for the millions of dollars.

The big money is from underground sales of these sinful outfits to homer fathers. Millions of men, taking food off their family's tables to support this perversion is just unthinkable.

Really, there should be a law against this.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

If they're going to ban clown costumes at Halloween, they should at least have the decency to ban adult My Little Pony outfits, too.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

I had a friend who told me he likes MLP (my little pony) and i put him out of my life even if we had been friends sense we where kids. and now he is CLOPING to MLP porn (i hear its real but i dare not look it up for the risk of being sent to burn in Hell) and cloping is the BRONY term for masterbating i try to talk him out of such nonsense but he won't. five days later he mailed me a pic of a white unicorn with wings but it had a human body with its pardon me (boobs) with in site. i took the pic and shredded it then took the shredder with the pic in it out side and burned the whole thing outside and camped out in the woods and prayed for ten whole days with no computers or any temptations of any kind for satin to temp me to be a BRONY . after the ten days i mailed a bible and a letter that reads

you are not my friend any more and take you and your MLP porn to that BRONY CON you talk about. and leave this place hopefully you can find god with this. i highlighted the versus that say you will not have sex with a animal and all that.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

So it's been six years and My Little Pony is still going strong and there is even a movie coming out in 2017 not to mention that My Little Pony is shown in many countries around the world. Looks like a mission fail for you.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Also abandoning your friend is a dick move, My Little Pony teaches you to accept your friends as they are and that love will always conquer over hate. If God hates everything then why would he make everything?

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

I'm sure he's used to it, but do you think pointing out his obvious shortcomings is really the best way to introduce yourself to this forum?

Who claimed God hated everything? The Bible makes it quite clear that there are some people God does hate, otherwise what would be the point of creating Hell if He didn't make anyone to go there? :confused:

Maybe these verses will enlighten you:

Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness:
I make peace, and create evil:
I the Lord do all these things."

Proverbs 16:4 "The Lord hath made all things for himself:
Yea, even the wicked for the day of evil."

Here's a question for you, Why does website call all of the new users "Unsaved Trash"?

If you want to about 1st impressions this whole website fails at it.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Genesis 1:31

“And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”

This contradicts what you said, everything in the bible can be contradicted by itself. Making it very hard to take seriously.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Here's a question for you: why didn't you read the sticky threads you were directed to read before posting, before posting a question that's answered quite clearly in those sticky threads?

And just why should anyone care about your ignorant opinion? :)

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

:facepalm: Learn to English, please. That verse clearly states that God was surveying that which He had created that day. As the Bible doesn't list Bronies among God's creations that day, any attempt to include them in the category "very good" using that verse as justification is an obvious fallacy. :thumbdown:

Only by not understanding what you're reading, as demonstrated above. :thumbdown:

Maybe if you read it AS IT IS WRITTEN it might make some sense to you. But that means forgetting what everyone else has told it you it means and says. Do you think you could do that?

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Alright you win that round but here's Another Question. Do you know Augustine of Hippo?

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Everyone is labeled so until Our Lord Jesus Christ and the DOF determine that they should be labeled otherwise. This is nicer than calling you all disgusting, festering, foul smelling blood soaked, fly-attracting menstrual rags, which is how He sees each human soul until they are forgiven, which happens only after accepting Christ (Isaiah 64:6)

You may wish to read this before you embarrass yourself more: **"Noobs" please read this before posting.** SERIOUSLY!

I don't think anyone is worried about that, dear. The LORD calls whom He calls (2nd Thessalonians 2:11-13). Those He calls will find the sweet aroma of Salvation no matter how it's wrapped. Those He doesn't wouldn't know Christ if He came up to them glowing and floating off the ground, slapped them in the face with a fish out of a lunchbox, then proceeded to feed everyone at the local baseball field with the contents of that lunchbox.

Well maybe if you watch the show My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic as it it was intended I'll do that, but I doubt that you will.:devil:

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Also Saint Augustine of Hippo would be very sad to hear that Christianity now sounds more like Manichaeism of his time than Christianity he was trying to promote:devil:

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

:praise:
That would make us exceedingly glad (Matthew 5:12)! Augustine was one of the founding fathers of the Catholic Cult. The ink on the papyri had barely dried when he started the ongoing persecution against the Pure Word of God by refusing to believe in the Bible as it is but felt compelled to accommodate the latest scientific heresies into his doctrine.

:badmood:

Let us look at his magnum opus, de genesi ad litteram (in reality, the illiterate interpretation, which exemplifies the Papist mindset of soiling everything that is precious and dear to Sweet Jesus).
Basically, Miss Augustina denied that God would be able to express Himself in a clear manner. He started the degenerative process that led the Catholic Cult to the acceptance of repulsive and Demonic issues as follows:

• Atheists and their "Salvation" (you don't have to believe anything and you still get to go into Heaven; Jesus disagrees in John 3:18).
  
• Muslims and their "Salvation" (you can deny the Trinity and the Divine Nature of Christ and still go into Heaven; Jesus disagrees in John 3:15-18).
• The only Truth™ is evolution (you can disregard the Fall [Genesis 3:6] and the need to reconciliation, i.e., Jesus; Jesus disagrees in John 3:16-18).

If our Bible-based actions can reach Augustine in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 20:15) where he resides, the better! Had Augustine lived during our times (at the End of all times as Jesus will return soon), he probably have not understood that the following verses are accurate and detailed descriptions of dinosaurs. Real things and not pink ponies. Imaginary foolishness began with him and destroyed a Holy Matrimony. It is, indeed, sad.

Job 40:15-16
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength [is] in his loins, and his force [is] in the navel of his belly.

This is what the Hippo would have wanted us to believe. It is ridiculous!

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Augustine of Hippo , also known as Saint Augustine, Saint Austin, Blessed Augustine, and the Doctor of Grace, was an early Christian theologian and philosopher whose writings influenced the development of Western Christianity and Western philosophy. He was the bishop of Hippo Regius (modern-day Annaba, Algeria), located in Numidia (Roman province of Africa). He is viewed as one of the most important Church Fathers in Western Christianity for his writings in the Patristic Era. Among his most important works are The City of God and Confessions.
According to his contemporary, Jerome, Augustine "established anew the ancient Faith." In his early years, he was heavily influenced by Manichaeism and afterward by the neo-Platonism of Plotinus. After his baptism and conversion to Christianity in 386, Augustine developed his own approach to philosophy and theology, accommodating a variety of methods and perspectives. Believing that the grace of Christ was indispensable to human freedom, he helped formulate the doctrine of original sin and made seminal contributions to the development of just war theory.
When the Western Roman Empire began to disintegrate, Augustine developed the concept of the Church as a spiritual City of God, distinct from the material Earthly City. His thoughts profoundly influenced the medieval worldview. The segment of the Church that adhered to the concept of the Trinity as defined by the Council of Nicaea and the Council of Constantinople closely identified with Augustine's City of God.
In the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion, he is a saint, a preeminent Doctor of the Church, and the patron of the Augustinians. His memorial is celebrated on 28 August, the day of his death. He is the patron saint of brewers, printers, theologians, the alleviation of sore eyes, and a number of cities and dioceses. Many Protestants, especially Calvinists, consider him to be one of the theological fathers of the Protestant Reformation due to his teachings on salvation and divine grace.

Also I'd rather enjoy my MULTI-COLOR PONIES than be you getting smite and Ignited by God for disrespecting the man who made Christianity a thing. :devil: enjoy the devil!

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Dear sinner,

I am sorry, but both the True Christian™ and the atheist academic communities do not endorse plagiarism. Paraphrasing might be OK, also direct quotes are acceptable if you cite the original source. Of course, your own ideas and thoughts would be more appreciated than blind copying and pasting. :( Thievery is not looked well upon in the Bible, either (please note that we actually reference the Bible when citing it by informing the reader of the Book, Chapter and Verse we cite).

1 Peter 4:15
But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.

Stealing the intellectual property of others while persecuting those who do not share your worldview is also associated to another characteristic that Jesus abhors.

Job 15:34
For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

What the.... This only a minority.
1. That meetings for 99% are just like BronyCon
<<<link to homosexual propaganda removed by moderator>>>
Just a casual meeting with fans of the show.
They can talk about show, get new friends, buy toys (if someone is selling them). There is no sex at all. I don't know why someone would just think that this automatically will be something evil.


2. Most of them don't dress up like ponies. (only when for example there is contest on that meetings).


3. You should watch video relations from for example BronyCon. There is nothing strange in it.


Summary:
Probably you just draw wrong conclusions.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Listen, I understand why you would think of such things by seeing these images. But frankly, you shouldn't base all your facts off a few images. You see there are two sides to every coin, and that is no exception for groups of people. I'm sure there are stereotypes that exist about the baptist church that are not true and it makes all of you look bad. And bronys are no exception. As a brony myself I can safely say that not all bronies are like the ones in those images. They make me sick and they are the reason why bronies are looked down and despised. You see there are three kinds of bronies. The open brony, which are bronies that are not afraid to talk about their interest and are the more normal and the ones are hate the kinds of bronies you see. There are the closet bronies, which are secret fans of the show. And finally there are the ones I despise the most, and so do all of you, the cloppers. Cloppers are like open bronies, but they are more sexual and adult. They are the ones that I wish would die off and burn in hell. The images you see are cloppers, or the weirder version of open bronies called gay bronies.gay bronies and cloppers sometimes go hand in hand. You can hate me all you guys want, call blasphemy, and somone against God, but I'm Christian, so that argument would be invalid. I'm not saying to welcome all bronies with open arms, but just do more research next time.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Hello, IAmGamerFun. From your username I can tell you place a lot of importance on having fun in your life. How do you square that with the teaching of Ecclesiastes?

Eccl 7:3-5
3 Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.
4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.
5 It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.

So tell us a bit more about yourself. What church are you affiliated with?

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

The whole gamerfun thing is actually a name I go by on the Internet. Like many other bronies, we have this thing called a oc or original character, a character that is unique and original. To ensure your trust, my real name is Donovan Moore, this way you can put more focus on other things then my name. I'm 18, and I am a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, or LDS for short. You may know them as Mormons. Now I have nothing against other faiths, in fact I love to read about them and learn about them because I'm a huge sponge for information. I'm actually about to leave on a 2 year mission for my church. I am now eagerly waiting for the call to come in the mail. I'm also a huge gamer including playing the "oh so sinful game overwatch" and yes I've read the post overwatch is overdue for a ban. And there are so many things in there that are incorrect, and most of his "facts and arguments" come from the back story of the game, which isn't even a focus point. But I really don't want to get into it. I am a huge history and mythology nerd, enjoying classic stories like the odyssey/Iliad, Oedipus, Frankenstein and so on. Other then that there isn't anything that special about me.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

I can't comprehend how anyone could be a Mormon. You do know the Book of Mormon is fraud, right? I mean, anyone could write a book and claim it was a message from God. But the whole story of how Joseph Smith found the golden tablets, which he would never allow anyone else to see, and translated them with the help of seeing stones, after which the angel mormoni conveniently took them away, is too much for me to swallow.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Let's start with our scriptures, you do know we also read the King James Version of the bible. And the reason why the angel mormoni took away the golden plates and the seeing stones was because a lot of wicked people wanted to use these sacred items for personal wealth. But let's just say that Joseph smith did indeed wrote the Book of Mormon without divine intervention. Remember that Joseph smith was a poor farmer boy with very little education, and they didn't write the way the Book of Mormon is written in, so he had to have some kind of artifact or records in order to speak that way. He also prophesied that tobacco and alcohol is bad for the human body. Back then tobacco was something not only used for casual use, but for medical use. In fact chapels were filled with the horrific smell of tobacco smoke back then. No one believed him, but wouldn't you look at that, over 100 years later, it was proven that tobacco was bad for the human body. Oh and then there is this tiny little verse that means a lot. 1. Nephi 3:10 And it came to pass that when we had gone up to the land of Jerusalem, I and my brethren did consult one another. Do you see why that is a major point? No? Ok well let me point it out "gone up to the land of Jerusalem" it's only Jerusalem that they say it like that. The reason why that's a big deal, is that they are literally going up to Jerusalem, as in the city is on a hill, and a steep one at that. Joseph smith wouldn't known about that unless he was extremely educated and had access to ancient artifacts or had divine help. If he was extremely educated, that means he wasn't a poor farmer boy, and if he had access to ancient records, he still needed a translator, something that didn't exist for ancient languages at that time.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

and the reason why he didn't let anyone else see the plates was because they were made of pure gold. People would want to steal them and collect the precious metal for themselves. But there were three people, (maybe four) that actually knew about the plates and saw them

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Or... maybe they were simply imagination. After all, Joseph Smith was convicted of being a disorderly person and impostor in March, 1926. He admitted at trial in Bainbridge, NY to be defrauding people by claiming to be a "glass looker," using magic stones to find hidden treasure or lost property. About eighteen months later, he founded a new religion by convincing a different group of people that he found magical gold tablets that could only be read with magical stones. But the real magic kind this time.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

That still doesn't explain his knowledge of a faraway geography. And he never spoke of actual magic. Magic goes against our beliefs, and if our religion was founded on real magic, then that means the lds church would have been disbanded

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

But he was using black magic to look for loot in Indian mounds. Isn't that where he got the idea to make up the Mormon religion? There are people who practice magic in my home country which is Jamaica. We usually set them on fire.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Bibles had maps in them in the 19th century.

Your idea about tobacco being bad for the human body is offset by the idea that hot liquids is bad for the body. The fact is, Smith made things up and was charismatic enough to convince a number of people that he alone had some magical conduit to the truth.

Magic is what he was referring to, even if he didn't use the word. Replace "spiritual" with "magic" in any Mormon theological argument and you'll see it's functionally identical.

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

To start off, why would Joseph say things like tobacco is bad for the human body to try to convince people to join his faith. If anything that would have made him even less popular. And people only found out that tobacco is bad during world war 1 I think, might have been the Second World War. But my point is, saying that would have made people hate him more. And as for the whole black magic thing. You need to be careful what you read on the Internet. Black magic is prohibited in the church, and we have no record of him using black magic to find the golden plates. And switching spiritual and magic in any faith would make sense. You seem to forget the part where we share the same scriptures, we don't just read the Book of Mormon, we also have the King James Version of the bible. Same as you

Re: How My Little Pony destroyed my daughter's marriage.
 

Leaving aside the obvious, why do you think anyone creates a faith and convinces people to join it? Why did L. Ron Hubbard? Why did Mohammed? Smith said lots of things, it's only the ones that were right or inspirational that are remembered.

Charismatic people say all kinds of things and convince people of all kinds of things. Ever wondered why someone like Hitler could have been so beloved by his people? Or Mussolini? Or Stalin? Or how the Catholic popes could work people up into such a frenzy that burning women at the stake was not only acceptable, but considered righteous?

Magic is magic. The Bible makes no distinction between Black and White Magic. That's Harry Potter you're thinking. You forget the part where you add such a bizarre epilogue to the Holy Bible that you functionally change the interpretive meaning of the Scriptures. You must, otherwise Mormons couldn't convince their children that they're really Christians (which was the only safe route in Smith's day, and has continued ever since).
