    I totally remember the Anti-Pac Man talks in the 80s. It was pretty funny.

    Prostitution, homosexuality, theft, hobbies taking too much time so you can't do your personal study TM ....but I seem to remember something about the games making kids enter a trance-like state so demons could enter their brains....

    So.... much....fear mongering!

    It reminds me of the exchange between Aragorn and Frodo in the Fellowship of the Ring:

    Aragorn: Are you fightened?

    New technology frightens those ancient ones in Brooklyn who do not understand it.

    (I am mentalling a skit one could do on Saturday Night Live, perhaps - a younger person holding up a cell phone in front of them - like a cross - and an old codger from Brooklyn hissing at it through dentures... similar to vampires hissing at a cross)

    I would not be surprised if they also had articles - way back when - that warned against getting telephones - or electricity.

    Regards,

    In the small town I lived in during the 80s, there was one arcade and it was owned by a JW family.

    I agree that Pac-Man is a "gateway" video game.

    The marvelous invention has been misused by them till it has become a satanic snare to capture their mind, to keep their eye glued to a television screen, not allowing them time to see the sign of the second presence of Christ or to mentally discern the import of such sign and learn what they should do to successfully meet the crisis.

    Yeah, like CNN, Fox and the others would never televise THAT spectacle.
