exposed to the occult and vampirism as a child through playing Dungeons & Dragons...

And last week we learned of two sons dismembering their mother 'cause that's how they saw Tony Soprano do it to Ralph on The Sopranos.

And my grandmother gave most of her assets away to Oral Roberts in the '70's because 'she thought' that's what he called her to do. She ended up living on state care in a deplorable nursing home for years.

No occult influence here. Just a mob guy and an evangelist.

"Influence" is one thing...going out and *acting* on it is another. It is the teaching of right and wrong and children being able to discern between the two.

BTW, since my kids read Harry Potter, the constantly nag me to take them to the Voodoo store. Sheesh. /sarcasm

What is funny is the ignore all the other things that were wrong in that kids life. Like the fact that his mom was charged with trying to rape a 14 year old to get him to join the vampire cult. His mom did that. But in the quest to blame RPGs such little details do not matter.

Some people are just plain crazy. Why do people forget that?

If you are willing to compare Harry Potter to "The Sopranos," then you are making a very strong argument against Harry Potter. I think that most parents would agree with me that we would NEVER allow our children to watch The Sopranos. It would so obviously be a detrimental influence, almost to the point of culpable parental negligence.
