www . worldofwarcraft . com / burningcrusade (no spaces)

watch the video and think of it religiously my points in the video

1. "the greatest enemy of the world remanes unscene" this is satan

2. blood elves are like angels "the blood elves turned away from there former comrades" said something about them trying to gain power

3. the obreviation looks like someone is sucking the soul out of you (WoW)

4. talks about madev=devil talks about him opening the dark portal

5. why tehre is a snake on the login screen is un answered

6. hissing noise like a serpant at the end of the trailor when "burning crusade" flahses

7. serpant on top of the door to the login screen its the same dark portal from the trailor on login screen

8. burning crusade=devils return "the burning crusade...IS NOW!"

9. burning crusade makes sence as evil

10. the game itself is perfectly fine but i believe satan is takeing souls of the players or something bazaar like that take me seriosly
Rofl. Still say it's a parody. And all those misspellings make it even funnier! ^_^

Lol I wondered how long this would go on for but now I just have to say it.

I personally could not care if I played the devil himself and playing with fire and brimstone with a pointy stick. Seriosly dude, if you get influenced by a game. You already need help. And if a game is evil in someones eyes, well I'm a true sinner and dont care, for the fact, Its not real.

I think you might want to try that again. This time it might be useful to break up your post into sentences, and possibly even consider using the built-in spellcheck function. Also, adding grammar might help.

Look man, I pray that God would convict your heart of what he wants you to do. About your father, if he says no, then, if you live in his house, I wouldn't do it. Because the bible says "Honor your father and mother." Sometimes we don't see eye to eye with our parents, but they are looking out for us, and sometimes, we have to listen, even when what they say doesn't seem to make sense. If you pray about it and feel totally ok with playing with it, then pray that God would open they eyes of your Father, but if your father still says no, then his word should stand. Hope this helps.

I had my same moral dilemma's in rpg's and other games...

Magic in games always had the discussion about being occult or not.

Say we forget that for a minute and paint it gray.
Then we can ask ourselves is this light gray or dark gray ? we all know white (pure) mixed with black (foul) makes gray. do you want to walk a white path or black ? Darker gray always leads to black.

If you know that on the other side of the forrest lies danger, but this side and the forest itself are safe, how far are you willing to walk through it ?

I'd be staying well from the middle of it.


Man am i fuzzy or what!
I always kept this as a motto on these things for myself...

but in my own langauge (dutch) it sounds more understandable

I have to admit my concern with the reference of demons in the game including the ' devils sign' used an icon for shadow priests ability of vampiric aura. I obviously dont speak for God but part me of feels the following 2 questions get to the bottom of the issue.

1. Are you using the game for satanic purposes or is it making you do things to intentionaly hurt God?

2. Is blizzards intent for the game to be satanic?
The answer to this is obviously no Blizzard would not make a satanic game if not just for moral reasons but because this would be very poor marketing as most of the world is Christian. Even though it does refer to some real things that are evil they are used in a purely fictional sense that is not intended to bring the game to satan and away from God. Fore instance murder is truley wrong but that is not even a mentioned issue in this thread that murder is commited by each player almost once every 60 seconds or less. This is just fiction and no one is being hurt. Just as the references arefor a dramatic fictional story and no where in the game is satan actually referenced.


Again i can not speak for God but i somehow feel these answers can my deicion to keep playing.

Question, I still live with my parents and they don't want me to pay for world of warcraft, but I think I will by the game and try it for the free month, see how it is, and go from there that sound ok with everyone besides the chase guy.

No offense chase guy, but I've played video games for a long time and I've learned how to keep them from affecting my real life.

I honor my parents by doing what they tell me NOT to do. I am paying for it myself and they just said that they would rather I do not. I'm just going to buy the game(20.00) at Gamestop and use the free month, so, unlesss I really like it, all I will spend on it is 20.00.
I do, however, appreciate the fact tht you want your opinions to be known, too many do not, and I want you to know that I appreciate your opinion, but it is a little too radical for me. I also agree with what most of the above posters say, that if you are not affected by it in a negative way, then there's no harm in it, and when in doubt, pray.

Since I'm only 16, I can't use a debit, or credit card, I'm just going to use the free month that comes with the game and a 60 day game card to see how world of warcraft works. I'm getting it in two weeks, and its a sale, so I'm only paying $35.oo for the game and the game card.

You can use a debit card, I'm pretty sure. Most banks will let you have a checking account at that age, and debit cards are tied to checking accounts.
