| | I play D&D, and Magic The Gathering. They are nothing more than Dice and Card games respectively. In D&D, you have the option to play villains, but it's only acting and the players know that. Dungeon Masters have a habit of making it hard for players of evil characters. In D&D, the questing knight, the valiant monk, the wise sorcerer are the good guys. Those are the people you want to play. In regards to M:TG, you cannot say they will lead to amorality any more than you could say that poker and blackjack lead to it. Therefore, I wish to remove that portion of the article and have more contributed to the indoctrination of children in public schools. No one mentioned it is a shame that our tax dollars pay for turning our children into immoral liberals.

| | + | :Many people play these games; how does that in any way disprove the assertion that they are tools which teach moral relativism? You mention that the "questing knight, the valiant monk, and the wise sorceror" are good guys. What sorts of acts do these "good guys" engage in? In most games I've seen, the answer is murder and robbery--justified by "We're the good guys." |
| | + | :As for "harmless card games," are you suggesting that games like poker and blackjack can't help foster amorality and outright immorality? Doubtless that's why Las Vegas is such a bastion of Christian virtue and decency. I personally know of at least one incident in which a child who played one of these fantasy card games was attacked and robbed by an adult because the cards he was carrying were "rare and powerful." --[[User:Benp|Benp]] 10:07, 11 August 2009 (EDT) |
