Is This A Pigeon

True story

underrated meme!

Ha! This meme deserves more upvotes.

What? Was that actually a thing?

Yep

Oh very

A friend of mine gave me his 1970s and 1980s vintage D&D figurines. I just think it's a game. As long as you don't summon demons or take the game too seriously, you're fine.

Lol

Lol that’s my mom now. Still haven’t played 😔

Y'know, DnD can be anything really. It was made for the intent of being infinite. You could probably convince your mom it's nothing harmful if you play Disney's Fantasia with pens and paper.

bruh

i dont get this meme... -_-

In the 1980's, there was a controversy about Dungeons and Dragons. People thought it was "satanic" because of the magic and spell casting abilities with players in the game. This led some people into murder and suicide because they were mentally ill and took the game too seriously.

o ok thanks!

I gave the 600th upvote! Congrats CookieLover96!

You've made my day! Thank you so much!

You guys are too young to remember this stuff, but the Satanic Panic was a huge cult like phenomena that spread like wildfire through the USA. Everybody was convinced that their neighbors or babysitters or whoever was lurking in the shadows, waiting to sacrifice babies to Satan when they weren't abusing them or listening to Rock and Roll backwards or playing D&D to "summon REAL demons and use REAL magic." Bitches, please.

Don't you think if D&D magic was real, kids would have been fireballing the crap out of all sorts of shit?
The funny thing is this is still the prevalent view in the Bible Belt, and among QAnon / Pizzagate dipshitters too. So gullible and superstitious, its painful to even think about.

If you want could you possibly follow (or maybe even post) on my stream imgflip.com/m/Cringe_Comedy

Lol idk what to say but good meme

i love dnd!

Kekw, imagine playing dungeons and dragons.... ._.

(I don't do that, cause I'm christian so.....)

Being Christian does not affect your ability to play D&D.

I play weekly and I'm getting confirmed in a few weeks. There is literally no religious reason not to play.

How is it satanic?

When the first version came out, some people who played killed themselves and some others. Kind of the same way parents thinks that video games encourage violence. People who played did bad things.

Doesn’t mean it’s bad because some people took it to extremes—the crusades were mass killings led by Christians

I don't mean its bad. I love that game and have well over a hundred dollars in books and figures.

Oh I though you were the person I replied to

Thought*

Yeah, and the Holocaust, and the Spanish, Russian, Medieval, etc. Inquisitions.
And 1750 years of child molestation, which Martin Luther (the Protestant dude) spoke out about- saying "The Pope and his Priests have too many young boys to sodomize. They should limit the number so people won't talk smack." (loose translation) Then there was the Salem Witch trails, invention of the most horrific torture devices ever made/used, the KKK and slavery before that.. well, I could go on. Don't get me wrong- I'm Christian, just not a stupid one who believes in "God". I believe Jesus was the coolest cat on the planet, ever, but when he played Renegade Rabbi for the last 7 years of his life- he didn't question enough Old Testament doctrine. Just some of it.

Whats ironic is that the Jesus (well Yeshua. His actual name) tells his followers "judge not, lest ye be judged", and "turn the other cheek / resist not evil" (which means be a Pacifist; no violence, even to defend yourself. no excuses) --- and in response, the guys who killed him (the Romans) adopt his followers into their State religion, and proceed to burn anybody alive who has even *slightly* different beliefs about how incredibly wise and Holy Jesus was, often taking their money and land afterward. Christians all throughout history had TRIED to dishonor his name and disobey his most cherished views more, they couldn't have done it any better.

In particular, the Roman Church spent 15+ centuries burning His blood relatives alive at the stake, as well as Protestants, and Muslims, and weirdos who thought the earth circled the sun rather than the other way around- and in the 17th century. (20 centuries after the Heliocentric theory had been discovered. Really. Christians are *THAT* dumb, and *THAT* evil. Who needs Satan when you have folks like that around?) The funny thing is now Christians, in their attempt to argue that the Bible is real and not stupid- say writers of the Bible knew the Earth was round and circled the sun, and wrote about it clearly. But if that was so- why burn the dudes who promoted that view back then?

You just called my religion, and me, stupid.

Close, he called the past of your religion stupid, which to an extent it was. I'm not gonna lie, the Romans did some weird sh*t. Also, the Spanish inquisition was really messed up.

Quote—“I'm Christian, just not a stupid one who believes in ‘God’”

¿Does that make Christianity bad?

no but it affects your christian walk with god, it has demons involved i it and i hate demons ok?

A lot of Christians think it's satanic because of magic and spells. Christians believe magic as part of the occult and it is evil.

Not all Christians, obviously
