The line gets kind of blurry when the Bible is applied to things that didn't exist back then. Video games is one of those things that I'm afraid did not exist back then.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

this. 

he didnt say what this title says.

he's basically just saying video game violence desensitzes people and degrades a persons soul.

to an extent i agree with that sentiment

Based on some of the things he has said in the past I think you're giving him way too much credit.  According to him yoga, karate, horror movies and sleepovers are evil or can be traced back to the devil.


only when you take what he says, put it out of context. reducto ad absurdium is what you guys do.

now im not saying he doesnt go a little overboard with things he says but, people love taking what he says  and exagerate it to the extreme.



I've killed over one million soldiers on Dynasty warriors 8 and through out playing every title in the series i've probably killed about 20 million soldiers.....

That must make me the most disgusting person in the whole world......



Thank you for once again making Religion look bad. Seriously, there is not enough facepalm in the world for that comment.



I respect Pat for what he does, honest. But he is getting old and he says what he wants to say without... thinking.

What's the context then?  

This is one of his quotes

"The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."

-Pat Robertson.  

While I hate some feminists for going over board.  I don't think any context makes this statement alright.  


its a generality, but overall thats true. (except for the witchcraft stuff, thats crazy.)like i said not everything he's say is right he goes off the deep end at times. but overall modern day feminism is anti-family and is socialist in nature.



OMG, I'M A MONSTER. RIP for the millions of souls i have murdered



Thank you BloodyRain, for always providing a plethora of poll options.



Hopefully no one listens to him.
