Well, if Pokemon teaches kids to worship Satan, what about all of the AMERICAN children's shows nowadays? They're pretty Satan-Worshippy if you ask me, moreso than Pokemon could ever be. *Cough*YoGabbaGabba*Cough*

Honestly, when I think of Pokemon, it makes me think that they are
promoting animal fighting lol. I know that's not the point, but I can't
see it portrayed as evil.

I remember my teacher said we couldn't play the pokemon tcg in class because it promoted violence. Lol.

hahah!!! That's ridiculously funny, but I think they were being a little too overreactive.

i am a christian myself and i understand what the man is saying about psychic things. we need to be careful that we dont take an interest too much in things like magic and stuff, but i dont think pokemon really shows witchcraft or anything.
as with most non christian things, you have to be wary of what you are watching, but you also have to make sure you dont take things too far, i mean that man was saying rock music was bad, when i know for a fact that if used in the right way, can be a beautiful way of worshipping God. there will always be good and bad things about everything, and as i am a human, i dont know for sure sometimes, so as a christian what i would do is pray and do whatever God says.
i think pokemon has some good things to it, like teaching you to love each other, work together and fight agaisnt evil. the first movie gives the message that we shouldnt judge people (or pokemon in that case!) just based on who they were born form or what we look like, which, i believe, would be something Jesus would teach!
so i understand the mans view, but i do think he has taken it to the very extreme, because at the ned of the day, you can see the things that really are bad and avoid them, and you can pick anything to pieces and make it bad even if its okay
:rheart: :ywave:

There's nothing wrong with pokemon, magic, rock or whatever he may be preaching about at any point or any circumstance as long as you can seperate reality from fantasy... if it happens that you can't then it's more broken psyche issue than it is pokemon (or whatever "thing" you're obsessed about) :rolleyes:

For radicals, religion comes before logic.

If Pokemon is evil, then any movie that has a beer drinking scene, smoking scene, etc. is more so.
