Graceangel well, i don't think the topic owner meant that all things are evil in and of themselves.. she was only making a general caution... because it can happen. she wasn't saying ti was the case for everyone.

Here's what I had to trash so far:
My Ryoko dolls, simply because Ryoko means demon caller
My big Rei statue(that costed almost $100 crying ) small Rei figure and Asuka resin statue because Evangelion is blasphemous.
My Kero plush, Book of Clow and Cardcaptor manga because In Greek mythology, Cerberus, or Kerberos, is a three-headed dog with a serpent or dragon tail, which guards the entrance to the Underworld. eek
All of my SailorMoon posters for personal reasons.
My Yu Yu Hakusho stuff because the anime is modeled after the Japanese afterlife.
I don't know if I have to get rid of eveything related to each series yet like my Tenchi figure and Ken-oki plush. I hope not..I love my Ken-oki! heart sweatdrop I guess I'll find out.

I do know some one that might want the card captors. I just never got into it. I think it had to do with the sub and dubs are on seprate disc and I did not want to buy two DVDs.

t0paz I hate when you go to read your bible and then you fall asleep! It's the most annoying thing ever. I guess that's why ppl say when you can't sleep read your bible. sweatdrop (or read the first chapter of the Scarlet Letter about the door. xd ) yeah... but, i think the reason for that is when you are reading teh word of god... it gives you peace in your soul and your subconscious.... and thus.. you fall asleep because you have been relieved of your burdens that were wearing you out... I myself for a while had a tendency to read a little bit before i'd go to bed and tuck it under my pillow. and sometimes, if my dreams get weird, i also go get my bible and tuck it under my pillow. Not that the paper and pages themselves would ward things off... but.. that knowing the word of God can protect us... hmm.. i've been watching evangelion... i haven't finished it.. i'm only on the episode where they start to reveal the truth behind rei... i have noted tho.. how some of what i see in it seems to me what might be post-apocolyptic.. i mean... the "third impact".. maybe like unto a third advent? which would be like the rapture? and.. not sure if any of you know this.. but they do show a symbol during the opening screen which i forget the name of it.. but it's known as the "tree of life" within the kaballah religion which is a religion who's entire existance is to oppose christianity and teh bible. but, at one point, they show "an angel" pinned up on a cross.... in the basement.. i believe this notion could be taken from some beliefs among other non christian religions and a few maybe christian [tho not many cuz very few that will accept this] that Jesus did die for everyone; but he didn't rise again and ascend to heaven; that he stayed dead. some believe he did resurrect but went off to have a family with mary magdelene... however, both of those accounts are not supported by the bible.

Graceangel hmm.. i've been watching evangelion... i haven't finished it.. i'm only on the episode where they start to reveal the truth behind rei... i have noted tho.. how some of what i see in it seems to me what might be post-apocolyptic.. i mean... the "third impact".. maybe like unto a third advent? which would be like the rapture? and.. not sure if any of you know this.. but they do show a symbol during the opening screen which i forget the name of it.. but it's known as the "tree of life" within the kaballah religion which is a religion who's entire existance is to oppose christianity and teh bible. but, at one point, they show "an angel" pinned up on a cross.... in the basement.. i believe this notion could be taken from some beliefs among other non christian religions and a few maybe christian [tho not many cuz very few that will accept this] that Jesus did die for everyone; but he didn't rise again and ascend to heaven; that he stayed dead. some believe he did resurrect but went off to have a family with mary magdelene... however, both of those accounts are not supported by the bible.
No all these makes up for a great story to entertain and that is just it. Do not take this seires as being bibcally true, for one God said He'll never distroy the Earth agian by flood. Now there may be some turth within this anime series but if I want truth, I go to the bible. Many movies and anime have bibcal based things in them. End Days is one move, Patlobor the first animated movie has some in it to. I was surprise that some one knew the original Hebrew name of our Father and that told it in Patlabor.
Eva is much like everthing else being named after something. Our little character are call avaters. That word means a child of a hindu god/goddess and human. The name of this site is Gaia, after the greek myths as the spirit of the Earth that mated with the spirit of the sky to form life.
Moday means Moonday which in some language like spanish, is still called moonday. Ester is a pegan festivale that uses rabbits and eggs as a sign for sexual orgies. That there is makes our Father mad that we celebrate His son's resurection with pegan items.
We can go thruogh and find many meanings even behind nusry rims. Ring around the Roses is about a sickness the killed people. Peter pumpkin eater is about man who killed his wife and possilbe ate her. Jack and Jill is about them killing their selves.
We can find a lot of weird things that we as awhole have accepted. Take the care Nova. It will not sell in latin counrties becuase Nova there means "no go." Here Nova means "a dieing star".

yeah... i guess we have to expect some misrepresentation of bibilical information when used by people who aren't christians or really know the word of God at all..
however, I'd like to point towards FF7. one of my favorite games.. and there are A LOT of references to christianity.. half of the weapon names, finishing move names, etc were names like that. i mean.. aeris's final limit break was called the great gospel.. and when used called down the angels from heaven. an interesting thing tho.. they did do something that a lot of people don't realize as planting faith in it. not sure if anyone realizes this ... but when you do the little scavenger hunt with the papers to get the numbers to comb on the safe in the shinra mansion... there is a paper in teh house with clues to get the numbers of each part.. and there are 4 numbers you need to open the safe.. but when you look at the note in the game, there are only three lines... so then, what is faith? the substance of things hoped for..and evidence of things nto seen. so, you hoped for one more clue.. but you don't see another one. but if you went down to where it would be and clicked anyways.. there it was... that to me tells me whoever designed that little thing knew a thing or two about how faith works...

Interesting. People have always told me Tolkein was a Christian - and not just because their idealistic - my dad, for instance, knows quite a bit about Tolkein, and I'm pretty sure he thinks he was Christian... he hasn't told me otherwise, anyways.

I remember I had a short period in my life where I thought I was bi. When it was over with I realized that I had been dreaming I had girlfriends or was having illicit affairs with girls! gonk That's crazy, and I never realized it was going on until God brought it back to my rememberance.
I don't know anything about evangelion but I read a pretty detailed review and it plainly said that the series is blaspemous "strong Christian's shouldn't watch it." You also have to be careful of things like that. Just like you said you were confused about what exactly was going on, it could mix you up and have you believing something preposterous. That's why I don't subject myself to that sort of thing. Even if you know it isn't right it could give satan room to come in and mess with your mind.

I was suprised to learn that ring around the Rosey was about th bubonic plague. Most of our nursery rhymes and fairytales are about not so nice things that they've turned kid-friendly. I believe even the "Little Mermaid" was somewhat of a horror story.

Xenosaga is like that too. I wish they'd hurry up and make the next game. There are biblical verse strewn about not to mention the girl that's kind of leading the team, Nephlihim who knows chaos somehow and it seems that he's an angel since one of his moves is even called Seraphim Thrust and another Demon Hunter I believe. Then there's the...hmm..I can't believe I just forgot what I was saying..I'm tired so I'll rehash on that later. sweatdrop

t0paz I've noticed that too. All of the religious parodies I mean. It's like people can't find a more interesting subject to play with. Although how much more interesting and conversation worthy can you get than religion? Easter is silly, but at least most of us do look at the holiday for the right reason.
I was suprised to learn that ring around the Rosey was about th bubonic plague. Most of our nursery rhymes and fairytales are about not so nice things that they've turned kid-friendly. I believe even the "Little Mermaid" was somewhat of a horror story.
Going back to the nursey rhymes, my dad and I think "Mary had a Little Lamb" is about Jesus. Take time to think about the words.
Now if you realy want to get people stured up, tell them the ET was based off of Jesus. If any of you ever watched the movie, you can see how ET life was simular to Jesus.
