Hi Kelby,
That makes two of us. I am also appalled by what Nicol is going through,
and it is hard for me to understand how someone like his mother can be
so extremest in her thinking. My in-laws are a lot like that, from the
sounds of it, and there problem is everything is either black or white.
There seams to be little room for a grey area in their mind. I can't
deal with people who divides the world totally up into black and white,
good an bad, right and wrong, etc. Fact is life is never that simple and
straight forward.

I can say, as a Conservative evangelical, that I am absolutely
sickened by what Nicol just related. There's idolatry, then there's
just fun and stories (which, really, is what a lot of video games
are--stories.) I just do not understand the attitude of some religious
folks that if you read a supernatural book, watch violent television
or the like then you're automatically a horrible person. Well guess
what? I read and love Harry Potter. I also make it a hobby to study
mythology and world religions. Oh well then, I guess I'm headed
straight for Hell.
