It's hilarious but I feel bad for the kids subjected to that shit. In middle school in the early 90s I got so much grief from people who bought into this kind of stuff. I played D&D and kids who saw me carrying the books around wanted to beat me up for being "Satanic," and my 7th grade science teacher would make me bring my books to my locker if he saw them in his class. Pokemon was magnitudes more popular than D&D, so I wonder how this all played out for those kids.
I'm actually really interested in the turn this takes towards the ontological around 2:30: "Everything in life is real." I'm reminded of an interview Judith Butler gave once:
It struck me that she [Andrea Dworkin] wants to police not only representations but the ways people think, desire, and fantasize; she wants to obliterate the ethical distinctions between fantasy, representation, and action.
Okay so Butler was talking about the "Feminist Sex Wars" of the 70s and 80s, but her discomfort with a moral universe in which not only behavior and relationships, but also thoughts and feelings must be policed and controlled is, I think, similar to part of my reaction to this video. The part where I'm not giggling.
After all, we know that Everything In Life Is not Real, but rather TERRIBLE.
so basically when you're dead, you won't be in heaven, but spending eternity trying to "catch them all" because you were too busy playing with pocket monsters to listen to read the bible
"Pokemon was magnitudes more popular than D&D, so I wonder how this all played out for those kids."
Well I spent my life in Christian schools, so I experienced this firsthand. It wasn't nearly as bad for the Pokemon generation as it was for the D&D kids. They banned us from bringing the cards and games from school, but that was the most they could do. It actually went the other way around, the kids who didn't play were the ones getting crap (from their parents) because of course everybody wanted in on it.
Kept waiting for him to knock that glass of (holy) water off the pulpit with all his ranting....woulda been funny, then he woulda blamed Pokemon for it.
As a kid going to Catholic elementary school when this was huge and I was very into it, I never heard anything like this. Gameboys were banned before long because some kids were caught playing pokemon in class, but that was about it.
I'm just shocked he didn't bring up the banned episode that gave kids seizures in Japan, claiming that it was the work of Satan. Come on, that one was a softball.
I'm going to Hell. Very nice of him to tell his audience that they might not be going to heaven??
Anyways, trying to remain unbiased after laughing my ass off I think he has something of a valid point with the fact that some gamers just dont connect to the world. However that is more lack of facing real life than THAT GOD DAMN DEMONIC POKEMON!!!!
Anybody recognize who this guy is? I'd like to look him up - I'd lay odds he's been defrocked or caught up in some scandal or another. Seriously, what did any of his diatribe have to do with "Christ died to save sinners" - this guy included?
WOW. All I can say is this guy has wayyyy too much time on his hands... AND even though the overall message of this was funny, because it was so fkn STUPID, I have to say it really irritates me that he can stand so righteously and try to tell people they are NOT going to heaven??!! WTF???
this guy is retarted. he doesn't know anything. toys can't be "demonic" he should be set on fire by charizard. people like him annoy the crap out of me.
I have to know, was that shot of Jigglypuff edited to be with antichrist voice-over, or was it natural?
Honestly I'm slightly impressed this guy even know Pokemon was short for pocket monsters. I played the dang thing for two years before I caught on to that.
lol my sister is a hardcore Christian and she freaking LOL'd at this video like crazy!! XD That is really surprising... especially when SHE laughs at this message...
She even told me that NO WHERE in the Bible didn't have any points why Pokemon is bad... badges, evolution...come on...
Sadly those type of Christians make really ignorant thoughts...once something comes from Japan, it's automatically hated...JUST because Japan's religious views are different...
I also hate it when people say, "YOU ARE GOING TO HELL" right there and then...um... even they say just praying, reading the bible, going to church and so on...we still go to hell. Er... so...nothing can take us to Heaven? :/ okay...whatever...
The weird thing about this minister's point is that the first time I clicked into Pokemon as a college student I thought it was an update of Superbook. Even the original Pokemon theme smacks of the Christian-produced version of cool.
BS. just BS. hey, if the person on this vid or any1 who agrees wants an argument, meh youtube channel is SilverSerpentineX. if u agree that this A**hole is retarded, then SUBSCRIBE!!! POKEMON RULEZ!!! it shall never die!!!! XD
Christians, we apologize for this asshole. He escaped from his padded cell again, and we've been trying to catch him so we can put him back for quite some time now...
Hope this guy ends up in a Hell full of demons disguised as Pokemon and D&D monsters. And I hope God allows those in Heaven to watch this moron's suffering as a TV show, because if it was a TV show I'd totally watch it. "Evangelists In Hell"! The new hit sitcom from ABC! Weeknights at 7:00 eastern/pacific!
OMG, so a Togepi with a pentagram on it forehead gonna crawl out of your kitchen sink cupboard and murder your family. OMG! You guys are so STOOPID!!!! You people are expecting way too much from a Japanese Anime Writer that has been in the business for years who he himself doesn't even have any relations to satanism. Open your EYES!!!
Yeah guess what BUB! I, one christmas, asked God to get me Pokemon Diamond Version, not my mom or my family, and Christmas day i when into my stocking and i found a wrapped game case with a sticker that said, "From: Jesus To: CJ" I opened it and it was Pokemon Diamond Version and a DS was right behind it with the same sticker! So oh Buddy look on Bulbapedia before you judge a show or game by what you hear the first time look it up first! Bitch!
As someone who grew up as what can only be described a "hardcore Pokemon freak", I find this hilarious. Who knew that I'm now an instrument of Satan who can't distinguish between bits of loveable code on my GameBoy (or DSi) and real life? Uh... not me.
His is a LIER, not a real preacher telling the people that thay CAN'T be saved... that goes totally against the Bible. "For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.... "For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: It is the gift of God: Not of WORKS, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9..
Christianity is NOT about being "good" or the "good" works we do. Instead, it is about believing, and accepting the gift of salvation and sharing it. "And by Him (Christ) all that BELIEVE are justified from all things, from which you could NOT be justified by the law of Moses." (Acts 13:39)
The bible says in Romans 3:19-20 "Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.
THAT makes reference to the law that God gave in the old testament, and that today many people try to follow, and that many (false or just confused) preachers use to call everyone a sinner, but guess what.... God himself tells us that it is impossible for us to follow those rules, he make them just to show us that we are sinners, and that were going to be punished, but since he love us so much he send his Son (Jesus) to take that punishment in our place...
Yes, that is the real reason why Jesus came, to take our punishment dying on that cross, but at the third day he came back from the dead, and now He is heaven again
Romans 3: 22-25 "This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished"
To receive salvation, and forgiveness of sins, the only thing needed is to believe that Jesus died on the cross for you, and that he resurrected at the third day. Do that and you'll be saved.
THIS is what christianity is about... FAITH, not good works, so that "preacher" is wrong, and I don't know if we should believe everything else he said
My girlfriend and I were happy as far I could tell and I never thought that we would break up. When her cousin died in a tragic car accident she went to her family in Mexico for a week. I couldn't go because I was in the middle of entertaining out of town clients for work. She did not seem to be upset that I could not go so I let her be. The next thing I knew, she reconnected with an old friend from high school that she had a crush on years back and they started to have an affair! I had no clue what was going on until she came back from Mexico. She proceeded to see this old friend and I caught her and her old friend one night hugging each other. I confronted her and she told me the truth about what happened. We broke up and went our separate ways. Neither of us fought for our relationship. I was angry and decided not to be upset about it and just keep it moving. Then after about few months of no contact with her I became sad. I wanted her to tell me she wanted to be with me and not her old friend. I was really worried and didn't now what to do bout it, until one day i saw an advert on e internet about how a Dr saved a crumbling marriage, an i was really excited and i contacted the Dr for a love spell, his name is Dr Ewan and this is email address COVENANTSOLUTIONTEMPE@GMAIL.COM,he told me to do some things and i did it, he told me not t worry that my lover will e back to me in less than 6 hours. I thought it was a joke when she called me and told me that she is really sorry for everything that has happened in the past. I was filled with joy, Dr Ewan truly helped me and brought my lover back to me withing the space of 6 hours, he was able to get her to miss me, she wanted us to get back together again. She had lot of regrets and felt bad for not fighting to keep me and for cheating in generally. she cherish our relationship so much more now and we are together now! You can also get your lover back with the help of Dr.Ewan contact him through whats-app +2349057353987 his email: covenantsolutiontemple@gmail.com. Thank you Dr am grateful.

ReplyDeleteAnd who knew D&D players were so prone to suicide? I would have never guessed that.
God bless America! Who is this man? Let's get him in the White House quick before the gays start marrying and unite against us!
ReplyDelete1:25 is great. I love that couple. The wife really digs it, but the husband is stoically thinking "Not this shit again."
ReplyDeleteEvangelicals are always good for laffs. Yet I can't help but wonder what he was doing when he thought up this sermon?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah. He was snorting blow off the bare ass of an underage Filipino rent boy. "Whay?"
For all of the demonic power that surrounds the kids who are REALLY into Pokemon, they cannot keep their lunch money from being taken from them

ReplyDeleteI remember first hand when my church preacher and Christian school teachers would say the following were Satanic at some point in time:
ReplyDelete1. Pokemon
2. Harry Potter
It was ridiculous. They were just jealous of the popularity and revenue poured into these themes.
Thats why I only use Mewtwo and MissingNo....
