I am
crying
laughing.
This... just.... wow.
I haven't seen such an extremest viewpoint on this in all of 3 days..
The worst part of this is that, instead of actually presenting convincing information, these people effectively condemn you to Hell for playing this game, using fear to "guilt" you out of playing it. It gives an extremely bad name to any people who follow the same religion as the people in these videos.
I would be interested in seeing anywhere (from any of these people who make these videos) where God, in the Bible, uses a tactic of fear to "guilt" people into believing in Him. If they can't find any evidence or an example of their deity using this tactic or condoning the use of it, I don't think it is within their belief system.
I've posted this question onto many of these sites, and I have yet to get a response. If any of you know these people/have contacts with them, if you could relay this question, I'd be greatly interested to hear any response.

OH NO THERE ARE TRIANGLES IN WOW, AAAAAH!
You're forgetting circles.
I think they're referencing the Teletubby "scandal" where they were accused of promoting homosexuality because of the purple one with the triangle shape over its head. Clearly WoW is promoting many hidden agendas.
I'm personally more concerned with the increasing number of quests that involve digging in poop, but apparently everyone else seems to be fine with this.
Oh. Went right over my head =P

I don't think it is worth posting to her video on you tube...maybe I am too lazy.
But yes, wow is rife with occult symbolism. So is the Christian Bible.
Yes, anything is excess is not good; but wow is a game/entertainment. If someone fails to realize that, be it the excessive player or the outsider looking in, then it is their failure...not the game, not the gaming community, not the particular religion that individual attempts to espouse...failure as an individual to understand completely both their own religion and in this case wow.
If you play too much and neglect you friends or family, boo on you.
If you believe in a faith and yet can't separate reality from fiction/fantasy, boo on you.
I could go way further than into more detail, but I think it would be pointless to say anything more than:
"
All
things in moderation."

:S I hate it when stupid nut jobs like her make the rest of us christians look like paranoic freaks like Ned Flanders.
seriously, this is a FANTASY game, just because you cast a spell doesn't mean you are standing in your room with a robe covered in runes and virgin blood sacrificing a rabbit to baal.
come on, my main character is a death knight, wich includes a repertoire of spells that are horrible such as blood bloil (despite it's laughable damage, in real life if your actual blood ever boils not only u're gonna die, it's gonna hurt LIKE A B*bleep*TCH) Death Coil (a spiral of unholy energy meant to burn the life out of someone) the ability to raise people as zombies, use the blood of my foes to heal my toon up, and overall embracing the power of darkness to kick some ass.
and as a christian I'm tottaly fine with it for a HUGE number of reasons.
A: this is all fake, that toon is NOT me, it's a digital creature that doesn't exists in real life. Thus the actions of my DK are NOT my actions. I (David) cannot make the blood of someone bloil, I (David) cannot ressurect people from their graves to do my bidding, I (David) cannot use any of the spells in my toon's spellbook.
B: The targets of the horrible spells in my spellbook are all fake as well, none of the mobs exists, in the battleground all those players are (while controled by real people) are also all simple digital characters, just 1s and 0s.
C: Regardless of how much I use my toon, none of what my toon does, or what the game asks me to do, influences my life. Its something made for entertainment.
some people will go to any lengths to try and explain why is a game adictive including asspulls like this, when in reality, the flaw is in the people not in the games themselves.
I bet that girl had a loved one who was some loser who commited suicide because a guild rejected his aplication, and now she's going "X-files" on us.
I hate it when people like her give the rest of us good natured christians a bad name. We are
NOT
all like that =(

rankkor, I heartily agree.
Example, besides my Paladin, my two highest characters are a Death Knight and (even worse) a Warlock.
Warlocks are pretty much the epitome of occultism, and I love them to death. They're very fun to play, have a distinct style, and mostly of all, I when playing my warlock, am not torturing my foe to death, then harvesting his soul and sacrificing it to summon a demon.

Why do I keep seeing TITANIC when I see the thread title?

There are lots of strange things that happen in christendom. Some missionary in Mexico has been 'translated' - which is the correct term for teleportation. This lady should read her bible and christian history for weird things that have taken place.

Because you're Catholic :)
There are two sources of supernatural power: God and Satan. They sometimes perform similar things, but one is EVIL and only one is HOLY and good.
As for the Roman Catholic Church, it is Satanic too; that should be obvious.
Tinfoil hat theory - are videos like this posted by Blizzard to drum up attention and advertise to the non-extremist members of society?

Personally, I'm surprised that I hadn't heard that WoW has Satanic sooner. I grew up with Dungeons and Dragons AND Ozzy Osbourne, both pronounced as a creation of Satan. I also remember Magic: The Gathering. I also remember this sermon claiming that Pink Floyd was satanic.
Who really cares.
If you search hard enough, you might even find a religion based on WoW. One idiot does not represent the majority.
