SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT! Finally, someone has said what I think has been on every American's mind! This is an editorial written by an American citizen,...
... At the risk of getting flamed, this should have at worst been marked as OFF TOPIC and at best not posted to this group. While I agree with this, it is...
... *shrugs* Not going to flame. But I'll disagree. I thought it was on topic enough. I didn't really agree with what was said though in the message itself. 1)...

... But this isn't the right forum for such a discussion. If I want political discussion, I'll join a list for that. I want gaming discussion in light of my...
Thomas, This list (if you check the history) has gone all over the spectrum. And I definately disagree that polotics have nothing to do with faith. I recall a...
I think the letter was on-topic enough. We've had several discussions in the past about religious isues. Some have bordered on politics, some are focused...
... But in light of other posts, I'll drop this conversation. I guess my request is that if a post doesn't deal with gaming AND Christ, if we could mark it...
Howdy, In my efforts to bring things back on topic =) I have a question: What genres do you feel allow for the best expression of our faith? Fantasy, Sci-Fi,...
It depends on what fantasy setting. If you have a polytheistic pantheon, any expression of Christian values in the game is largely impossible. (Not to say you...
... Heh... don't think of it as stirring the pot but making your opinions known. I don't think any of us took offense. And I'll try to remember if I do make a...

While I agree with Thomas that the topic is Off-Topic, I also agree with coach that Christianity is required to influence government (Romans 14). I would say...
High Fantasy and Classic Horror are the best. You don't "witness" during the game, at least I don't. It's during the dinner/lunch breaks and before and...
I don't think I've ever played a classical horror game or could think of an RPG in that setting. Are you talking about "Call of Cthulhu" type games or ...
Hey, everyone, say a prayer for me. :) I'm getting the ball rolling on teacher certification. I found a track that, given my degree + business experience in...
My view of this forum is one of friendship and a sanctuary from the storm of ignorance. I see the people who post on this forum as friends and currently you...
First of all, I posted this in light of the court hearing about the Pledge of allegiance to the American flag, offending atheistic citizens. Second, I would...
"Classic Horror" is games like Call of Cathulu, Ravenloft, pulp 20's-30's Horror, GURPS Horror, GURPS Atomic Horror, etc. These games can, and often are run...
Okay. So I was on the money about what "classic horror" is. (Figured Call of Cthulhu was in there because it's based on Lovecraft...and what more classic...
Won't ya'll be happy when I start doing some work that actually has me keep busy enough so I don't have time to write 17k messages? I apologize for that. I...
... Actually, the religious freedom in the founding father's day was largely freedom of persecution from government offices, as well...much like it is on the ...
Yeah, I know it's not an RPG. But I got the new Warcraft, and it is REALLY good. The animation is phenomenal. Someone's not only good with computers but is...
Sounds to me, Calinda, that you run Classic Horror using the Vampire setting. Good vs. Evil. That's totally differenet from the way people run Vampire around...
Actually, all of this nonesense started with the ACLU. The ACLU was started as a front organization for the Communist party back in the 30's during the ...
... *nod* That's different than how alot of people run it. And it's different from how alot of people run characters in our game. Inner conflict is a part of ...
... Absolutely. Alot of evil stems from the ACLU in the sheep's clothing of "civil liberty". Every time I hear about them on the news, I cringe ready to hear ...
There's an interesting article in Time this month. (Or maybe last. I don't get the magazine...just picked it up at the barber because I was bored.) It's about...
I read the article you are citeing. It's very badly written, to be honest. They didn't interview any key evangelical or fundimentalist theologians on the...
