Dungeons and Dragons is a tool of Satan. It's one of his more dorky, socially inept tools though.

Actually... I thought this was kinda funny... a fundie with a sense of humour award?
Well, if he´s so inept, why are we seeing so much of his "art" in Lebanon right now, just to refer to a little one?. Oh no, but for you that is not evil, is patriotic. Evil is women praying ocus pocus in a pentagram or people having sex out of marriage.
TammyFaye: lose the stereotyping, would you? It insults us all.
Thank you, Hadanelith. I was going to say much the same thing as that last paragraph of yours; that "middle-aged loser geek" stereotype is as bad a mischaracterization as the one the fundie makes in this post. (Actually it's worse, since there ARE a number of those people -- but it is unfair to tar all gamers with the same brush, just as it is unfair to claim that all gays are flamers, or that all Christians are fundies.)
Dungeons and Dragons forces geeks to band together and develop at least some social skills.
Yeah, enough with the gamer stereotypes! My regular group hasn't met for months because of work conflicts, but none of us meet the stereotype.
Y'know, man, I statted out Satan once and he wasn't that great. I mean, I've had characters that could fight a war against God and win! Like this one time? At band camp? I had an axiomatic, fiendish, half-celestial, half-dragon (red), lycanthropic, vampiric, titanic half-elf of legend Bbn20/Clr20/Ftr20/ Pal20/Blackguard 10/Rgr20/Wiz20/ Psionicist 20/Master of Chains 10/Oozemaster 10, with an ancient black dragon familiar and specialized in wielding the dreaded two-handed anti-macassar. And he killed the entire D&D pantheon with one blow and took all their stuff! Satan's a wuss, man!
Satan put all his skill points into Diplomacy and Bluff, but Jesus gets that +10 divine bonus to his Sense Motive check (and anyway, whatever he rolls, it becomes a 20) and saw right through him.
Actually, the stereotypes put forward in this thread annoy me more than Dogplatter's comment.
Yeah, can we please not stereotype a game that a goodly percentage of this site's fanbase are or have been involved in? Making fun of Fundies is a victimless crime, but you're insulting your fellow posters.
Yes, yes, I know perfectly well that the stereotypes don't apply... first hand experience.
I've played D&D since the 70s. I am not ashamed of that.
Look at the fairytales that we tell our children. Is Hansel and Gretel evil because there is a witch? Sleeping Beauty because of the evil fairy? Snow White?
I used to work at "The Games Cupboard" in Canberra many years ago, premier purveyor of all things RPG in the ACT.
<< And just think of all those out of work black clothes sales people if they were to suddenly disapear?! >>
D&D is alright, but my FAVORITE of Satan's tools is rock and roll!
Satan keeps this tool in his workshop: my idle hands.
My second favorite of Satan's tools are his brake calipers.
I wonder how he would react to the Left Behind RPG, which is based on the 3rd Edition AD&D system...?
“Dungeons and Dragons is a tool of Satan”
“It's one of his more dorky, socially inept tools though”
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
