I love church and anime. I'm in the church choir, so I guess I'd be forced to choose church over anime. Besides, I'd only watch anime later anyway. ^-^

screw what the church tells you. I personaly dont believe in any faith. i have nothing againts peoples faith, but when they try to put rules on u thats when they can die. =\

Well if she's beleiving anime is from the devil, i doubt she reached that conclusion on her own.

That's not right! They are just cartoons, japenese cartoons!?! What are they going to do to us? The devils going to jump out of the TV when we are watching us?

It's like a few years back, people were banning the Harry Potter books in religous schools. I think it's cruel and very ignorant. especially telling your child you cant watch or read it 'cause the church says it evil'.
Let children be able to have something called an immagination.

I think your right,animes are just a mere bunch of drawings that are shown in our televisions...they just influence us but it is up to us if we will be influenced by a cartoon...anime can't be against church or to our religion. The only ones who are banned are those too violent cartoons.

Depends on the church and Religion.
Christians

Many of u younger ones are so far of the point it is not even funny if u go to church what do they teach u there most of all what do u learn there.

Let's have a look.
Harry Potter - witches and witchery and those are evil stuff right
Anime in the whole there is exceptions violence,violence,violence.
Hentai - Porn Porn Porn.

Alot of the Anime has to do with some kind of spells or invoking of supernatural powers and all that if u know your Bible then u will see the things that the church is talking about is right.
Not anime itself but the stories and the effects and all that. Yeah if u say u disagree then u need to investigate don't go on a foolish rampage.

That was only to christians, anybody felt offended i can only say - Ignorance is Bliss

Let's take a look at what you're saying though...

Harry Potter - witches and witchery and those are evil stuff right
*Wrong Witchcraft isn't evil. That is something the Catholic Church has instilled in its followers to maintain control over their congregation. Especially in the early days when they could isolate non-believers and turn them into heretics for persecution. That way the church could keep a hold on the society. The devil didn't exist before Christianity, they took a Pagan God and made it into a sign of evil. Just like the Pentagram, which actually mean Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit. So before you call Witchcraft evil do your research.*

Why the church considers anime evil is because it could show kids that there are other things out there besides Christianity. It shows that you don't always have to conform to one particular set of ideals. The Christians are scared of things outside their beliefs because they have been told that they are evil, even if they've never personally watched, read, or heard what they are so against.

It is sad that you would criticize others in what they interpret in the question asked. Whose to say your answer is better than any of theirs b/c you're older. If anything that makes your answer worse b/c you have narrowed your view down to what you believe to be true and no one elses answer matters. So maybe you should do research before answering with a biased answer.

I'm not trying to say I'm right and you're wrong, I'm only sharing my opinion and the facts I've researched. I'm not saying that anime isn't violent but I also think that everyone that watches it isn't going to go emulate what they see. If that was the case we would have a lot of ninjas on our hands

Yes, that is a horrible predicament. If you feel that you can't absolutely get away from this anime, then I would suggest you to at least be careful. Churches (really, religions) answer to a higher authority therefore, theoretically, they should be infalliable (meaning they are never wrong). Which anime is it?
