[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] [QUOTE] True that certain aspects of worshipping God is bad, but can you reall see someone who goes to church every Sunday, who loves God, and would later in that week go in school and kill people because of TV or games? [/QUOTE]I AM POSSESSED OF FIRST OF TWO! "There have been many examples of massacres occuring throughout history in the name of religion. I know this because I work in a library, and have read books. The crusades was bad. People died. I read this in a book. Because I'm better than all of you. Fuckwits. The KKK, there's another one. They are sometimes religious, and they sometimes kill, thereby my argument is right. I want my financial aid!" I AM NO LONGER POSSESSED! Tora is pretty much right. It's daft to think that violent computer games don't have any effect. We are shaped by what we see every day. However, the logic leap from "Huh huh, I made him bleed in Soldier of Fortune" to "DIE everyone who has ever looked at me funny" is bigger than Jeff's deer killing record. It is also a scapegoat though. Witness the Columbine (I think) parents blaming Doom, saying that one of the killers named his gun after a character in Doom, which he didn't, mainly as the characters in Doom don't actually have names. Banning stuff like this is wrong though, as is banning anything. If you want to stop people from being racist, you don't remove racist publications. You create a society where people would not see the need. Tackle to problem, not one of the causes. And I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with playing violent games, providing you are old enough. Although reading " I love sniping enemy soldiers in the leg, seeing the exposed bone and watching them fall to the ground in pain. It's great." does make me wonder... [/QB][/QUOTE]
