Let us examine some of the individual Pokemon characters.
I am afraid the grim forces behind Pokemon have forced me to remove this section of my essay. I had originally used scanned images of the Pokemon cards as examples, but was promptly contacted by Nintendo lawyers and told that I would be subject to legal action if I did not remove the offending material. I sent back a letter pointing out that most of the pokemon characters were based (abet some of them very loosely) on gods from three separate pagan religions, and were as such not subject to modern copyright laws. "It would be like Nintendo trying to copyright images of Zeus or Saturn," I said. I received a second letter reminding me that Marvel currently held a copyright on a god patterned after the Norse god Thor. As there are no lawyers in my parish, I decided it best to concede the legal battle until I had time to rewrite this section to be less dependent on graphical imagery.
Pokemon and the New World Order:
Many of you have probably read my previous articles on the New World Order. No, I am not talking about the professional wrestling media blitz being used by the Trilateral Comission to desensitize us to the terminology. Pat Robertson has much more to say about the real new world order than I, and is significantly more eloquent than myself in discussing it, but for those of you unfamiliar with the concepts I will give a thumbnail outline of the points relevant to Pokemon, as I discuss the subject.
Most of you are no doubt aware of the influx of Eastern ideas and thinking into Western Culture. Part of this influx of religions ideas have been collectively referred to as "New Age" thinking. New Age thinking is stereotypically associated with burned out left wing former hippies who smoke Marijuana and wander around with pony tails. Sadly, this is not the case. Eastern Meditation for example, is being used in a number of settings to lure people into the kinds of mental states usually used to contact spirit guides and familiars, AKA Demons.
The New World Order is a collective term that refers to several movements with common goals and common players. Essentially, China and Japan are the ideological center of a movement towards a one-world government. This movement is supported by the Trilateral Commission, collection of financial and political world leaders dedicated to the construction of this one-world government. All of the USA's presidents since Roosevelt have been members of this commission, as are the controlling parties behind Disney, Viacom and even Microsoft.
Moving in parallel to the one-world government is a cultural migration away from Western Civilization towards Eastern ideas. Judao - Christian concepts of God are being replaced with nature centered religions based on the occult. A more complete discussion of these topics can be found in the book Like Lambs to the Slaughter.
Sadly, few people know about these insidious plans. Outside of the average Right Wing Conservative Christian and the Christian Coalition, few people really know anything about it. One interesting book on the religious aspects of this New World Order can be found by clicking here.
In the larger scheme of things, Pokemon is actually a small portion of this New World Order. Look back at this article. What do you see? Pokemon uses imagery and ideas from a 3,000 pagan religion to teach america's youth to gamble, be greedy and loose contact with reality. It replaces everyday interaction with a surreal world of fanciful characters with magical powers. It is weakening the minds of America's youth, draining away time that would otherwise be spent in activities like football, baseball or Bible Study. In sort, it is weakening the Christian backbone of America. In the end, our children are left with a weakened grasp on reality, and have been conditioned to see things of a supernatural nature as a game. Just as Marijuana is often a "Gateway Drug" leading children to harder substances, so is Pokemon a Gateway paganism, leading children into, at best Agnosticism and at worst Satanism.
