Pat Robertson: ArcheAge, Dungeons & Dragons Lead To Demonic Possession

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Tuesday, 11/25/2014 11:55 am

Pat Robertson offered a stern warning today against playing games such as ArcheAge and Dungeons & Dragons, insisting that they may lead to demonic possession. Robertson, who has frequently attacked Dungeons & Dragons, even tying the game to suicide, said on “The 700 Club” this morning that the game led people to do “horrible things and it was almost like an invitation to demonic possession,” while conceding that he has never heard of ArcheAge. “I think we shouldn’t get ourselves involved in something we are roleplaying a thing having to do with demonic forces,” he said.

2. Pat should be

happy. That's what the young voters were doing in the last election. Smoking pot and playing video games.

3. The only ones who belong in the Monster Manual or the...

Fiend Folio are the Christian Right. If they didnt have a stake in the Empire, they would be ISIL.

4. I remember a very concerned neighbor worrying about me playing Magic: the Gathering.

It's a friggin' CARD GAME.

Heck, the most Conservative Christian people on my Facebook friends list played both M:TG and Dungeons and Dragons back when I was playing. I don't know if they have any groups set up now, but they were fundies even back in the day, and they realized it was just a friggin' game.

5. Well my 35th level cleric/

20th level assassin goblin says Pat Robertson is a poopy head.

Now if you will excuse me, I'm late for my seminar: Human Sacrifice- Are "Technical" Virgins Good Enough?

7. Those games only affect people in a negative way

if they are very superstitious, much like Pat Robertson does.

8. I wonder when Senile Uncle Pat is

gonna take a shot at the Brony community, of which I am a part. Magic is an integral part of the poniverse and there IS - shock, horror - a CARD game. We are also said to be ignoring traditional gender lines.

The sad thing is that there so many out there who unquestioningly believe the cretinous old fraud and the countless ones like him.

11. And no necking in the back seat of your dad's La Salle, either!

Gee, D&D? Does anyone still play that?
