Re: Is Pokemon evil??

How can you get around that the are "POCKET MONSTERS (DEMONS)"!!!

In all seriousness though, I have played every type of RPG from the Original DnD to the Super Hero and Star Wars versions of it. It is all based off of dice rolling, like 1000's of other games.

I do understand the thought behind the "evil" description though. A lot of the stuff is designed off of the Occult "religion". The question though, is should be not participate in any worldly activity? Sports is based off of Greek Religion and Philosophy.

"Monsters" can refer to anything. Demons are real world beings. PM and other games are purely fantasy based.

Re: Is Pokemon evil??

Tarot Cards are not a game. They are occult tools for getting guidance from the dead/spirits

Totally agree, there is a difference between a game, meant for fun and amusement, and a tool used for divination like tarot cards and a ouija board!
