I believe in God, but sometimes I don't. Anyways my question is that is violent games like "Mortal Kombat" good in the eyes of the lord? I say that I play Mortal Kombat and other violent games such as Grand "Theft Auto San Andreas " because they're entertaining. That doesn't mean that I go killing people around!

God is probably more worried about violence in the real world.

its called being agnostic and i am too like you undecided about religion.


yeah i have the same reasons for that its entertaining and not because i like to hear people scream*looks from side to side eyes also move shiftily*

I AM ONLY SMILING COZ THEY HAVENT FOUND THE BODIES YET!grin

no but seriously i get pissed when shit gets banned coz sum kid goes and kills sum one and then they blame it on the video games/films/music.
try asking the parents if they treatedher/him good, or if they beat them? it makes more sense. if the kid really did do it coz of the game then you shud of locked him up earliery in an mental home, no one in there right mind copies a game!

I believe in God and I believe he created everything, now for the people that don't believe in him, that's fun but don't come at me with the what proof do you have because I don't have any.

It's a belief, and the bible I believe has a lot of accurate info in there.

I don't believe that by liking MK, video games, porn, martial arts things like this will make god not love you.

I wear a jesus christ's head in a cross around my neck all the time for good luck and because I believe in him, otherwise I wouldn't wear it.

I also believe if you did do something bad, and you do believe in god ask for forgiveness truly and he will forgive.

I'm not perfect but sometimes try to be in life but fail.It happens, one thing especially that I try to be perfect with is my MK skills, art skills, voice skills and with girls.

But anyway, yeah I believe in God.I don't believe that nature or the universe some how created itself without some powerful being having a hand in it.Another reason why I believe in God.

I am a Christian. God lets you do fun things as long as they don't get in his way, unless it is porn or killing people or something. My youth pastors talk about playing Contra and even gave a sermon about the Konami code and how life doesn't have a cheat code that will give you twenty lives.

I am agnostic myself, and I think its dumb to use a religon as an argument for anything, why? someone will say "well my god says this" and it becomes a war (yet another reason to be agnositc I don't have to deal with holywars on one side or another unless I want to) religion is a nice belief, but it should never be the backbone of any argument

as for videogames, I think god is just happy people found an outlet for the killing bug and will send the idiots banning these games to hell, rather then the people playing them and not doing anything

Then you're not a christian then lol.Christian/ Christ=ian.Means you believe in Christ man on some level.

BTW, Sickfreak well I like porn and personally see nothing wrong with it, I don't kill people though and never would unless I felt I had to.Even then I would repent after.

I mean lots of christian people like porno lol.I think it's normal personally, not saying a priest or anything but a person who is christian in general, I don't see a problem with it.

It is a sin to have lust, MKF. That is in the Ten Commandments and the seven deadly sins. Porn=lust. It is wrong in God's eyes.

actually I think lust (which is needed to help create more people) is only a sin if you overdo it, and force someone to have sex with you, like any sin its really just if that part of human nature goes horribly wrong, not the feeling of lust itself

Well, I just feel that it's ok since God can forgive other people in the word that have killed people and ask for forgiveness.

I get angry at god at times, some people feel that's a sin but everyone does at some point.

Also, what about lust with someone you love?A girlfriend or wife?

I can't see god getting pissed at that, if it's real then what's the problem?

I'm not a porno star or anything, I might watch it sometimes though.

For what it's worth like in the virginity thread, I'm a virgin and proud of it.Most guys my age aren't, I had a chance to 3 times within the past 6 years but passed because I have morals...sex without love is meaningless.

indeed, as i have already said i am agnostic, and i am undecided about religion, but i am more christian than athiest, i believe the rules that the bibles has laid down(if indeed true) are more guide lines and can be broken just not overdone as you have stated ladymage.


But plus for anyother religus people of a difrent sect, i believe to get to the thruth(if indeed it is not false) is to take a wider picture taken all aspects of evry religion into consideration, even satanic beliefs, it is another religius belief afterall.

I do believe in a god but i don't believe in any of the religions for one if there are so many religions how can we tell which is true. In order for me to believe i need definate proof of the truth. Until then i just gather infomation and i decide for myslef whats true. I do believe in a higher power but i don't think its so strict. As long as you respect him and live your life in a honest mannor and respect life then your fine. I think he gave us freedoms for a reason like thought slef control and as long as we respect life our freedoms aren't in dangered. So if masterbating or just somethign stupid that people says gets u to go to hell really does that then i don't respect the higher power becuase the higher power i believe respects humans lives as long as they respect his creations.

Those are just games.... like Legacy said, He cna only care qabpout real world violence... in the past i didn't quite like god, I turned against him for personal reasons, and let me tell you; if you pray for hatred, you will recieve hatred too... then a priest convinced me that If i want to be in peace with myself, i had to change somehow.... I changed, but I didn't reurn christian, i became argnostic..... The only god in my life is Rock ( all types of rock exept slow ) winktongue...... PS: Satan is full of shit let me assure you, he will only make your life worse.........

Well the reason I ask because lately I've been having this people who call themselves Jehova's witness. They always telling me to do things that are right to God, and that's not a bad thing, but they touched something sacred to me. Well they say violent games is a no no in god's eye. I personally don't believe in most of what they say for a particular reason, but I'll save that for another thread.

Oh dont start on Jehovs Witnesses. Man they come round to our houses and try to convert us. We say its okay thanks dont come back. They always come back though!

They dont celebrate christmas, birthdays and cant have blood transfusions. This is because they take the bible too seriously. It says do not take another mans blood. Most people interpret it as not to injure someone or kill them but they actually disagree with blood transfusions. So if they are injured this could easily be the reason why they die!

Things that serve no meaningful purpouse, and are not "productive" uses of our time are frowned upon. Video games, T.V., basically, anything that takes away from time that could better be spent worshipping God, is frowned upon by him.

I am a catholic and I beleive in God. I think that some Muslims have a very shameful outlook on the world and how they think in terms of God. No God would like to see people dying with explosions and war. I think that the human race is slowly starting to become extict. Not many people have morals anymore. When you see a young girl swearing at her mother and father, and them letting her get away with it, it saddens me. The world is not a very nice place. But lucky their are some people in the world that are good people, people that have respect. People that know right from wrong.
It is these type of people that help maintain a little bit of balance.But i Fear the scales in life will be overweighed by the Druggo's, Rapists,terrorists, some day. Bringing the world into disripute.sad

Muslims do not have a very shameful outlook on the world and how the think in terms of God. Its just some so called "Muslims" twist words from their Religion to make it sound like what they are doing is justified. A lot of Muslims condemn the actions of these people and say that they are not even muslims for doing this.

Same goes for some factions of christianity, and different cults. They take God's words, and interpret them in a way that "justifies" their twisted beliefs.

Al Quaida, Taliban, Poligamists, Mormans, Jehovah's Witnesses... They're all examples of twisted interpretations of God's word. Not all are extreme, and as violent as Al Quaida, the Taliban, and other cults though.
