  1. Not all Christian people are against D&D
  2. D&D is NOT a recruiting front for Satanistism or Wicca
  3. The words for casting the spells (if you do LARP Live Action Role Playing) are just random made up words
  4. William Schnoebelen is a loud mouth racists who knows NOTHING about D&D, Wicca or the people who play D&D
  5. Just because some one places an evil/chaotic character in D&D it does not mean that they are evil or chaotic in real live

  7.  

  8. The Comic called "Dark Dungeons" that Chick Publications produced is not what playing D&D is like

  10. All the suicides or crimes that B.A.D.D. have stated 130 cases, 21 of those are missing name, date and/or place and could not be located of the over 100 that have been found there has been no evidence connecting them to D&D
  11. The Association of Gifted-Creative Children of California surveyed psychological autopsies of adolescent suicides and was unable to find any that were linked to these games. Their National Association has endorsed Dungeons and Dragons for its educational content.
  12. Dr. S. Kenneth Schonbert studied over 700 adolescent suicides and found none, which had, fantasy role-playing games as a factor.
  13.  

  14. Gaming is basically an adult version of make believe. It does not promote actual black magic or manipulative magick.
  15. D&D originally had NO magic in it and people still said it
  16. Was evil

  17. Mrs. Pulling has No idea about gaming and does not even
  18. Know what games are recent

  19. D&D has NOTHING to do with necromancy

16. Mrs. Pulling has a reason to fight D&D her son committed

Suicide

  1. BUT it had nothing to do with D&D he looked up to Hitler as
  2. His idol

  3. On 1997-APR-7 and 8, the Adventures in program of Focus on
  4. The Family broadcast two episodes which attacked what they

    Call "role-playing Fantasy Games" which was TOTALLY

    Stupid and was not a true showing of how games are played

  5. Mrs. Pulling Founded Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons
  6. (B.A.D.D.) because her son committed suicide, she thought that

    It was because of a cruse placed on him while he was playing

    D&D and so he committed suicide

  7. B.A.D.D. is currently inactive because of the death of Mrs.
  8. Pulling who died of cancer a couple of years ago

  9. There are many other types of RPG games besides Dungeons
  10. And Dragons and they are not getting as much hassle as D&D

    Gets

  11. No role-playing game forces you to act out graphic scenes of
  12. Violence. No gaming manual told Koehler and his friends to

    Levitate a queen and then fill her with arrows. They came up

    With that idea all on their own.

  13. a show called M&M (Mazes and Monsters) shows Rpg’s as evil, unchristian, and cult like this show is REALLY wrong and is out of wack
  14. Mrs. Pulling in her group B.A.D.D. when she made a book on her opinion she took articles from newspapers and other places. For one thing she printed them with out the consent of the author. she also edited some of the by adding text, making things against D&D stand out more, and omitting statements and facts that where for D&D
  15. An example is for the story written about her owns son suicide, she removed comments from a class mate saying that D&D had nothing to do with his suicide and a report from an investigator saying that they had found no link between Bink Pulling’s death and D&D
  16. The Occult does not even exist and if it does it has not connection to D&D
  17. At one point in a radio broadcast story, Len tried to draw blood from Jimmy. Gamers don't draw blood. Their pretend characters might be imagined to draw pretend blood, but that is all.

28. Len explains that some adults become "Interferers" and

Attempt to stop young people from playing the games. He

Explained how they drove-off one such woman through the use

Of magic. Again, gamers do not engage in black magic or

spells To dominate, manipulate, or control others.

  1. Len says that he has the power to read Jimmy's heart and
  2. Implies that he received this special power during his gaming.

    This again is nonsense; players do not accumulate special

    Powers; it is the player's pretend character that may accumulate

    Or lose pretend powers.

  3. the gamers are described as kneeling and reciting an

Incantation. Actually, the gamers would typically remain sitting

And simply say that their characters are kneeling and engaged

in A ritual; no incantation would actually be spoken.
