no. but youll likely be disgusted by the behavior of the majority of players.

A second opinion is that it is a sin for the following reasons:

1. Casting spells, magic, enchantments are clearly defined as sin in The Bible and are listed under witchcraft, in the game the clothing, weaponry and questing all involve heavily the above. One might say, well it is only in the imagination, but as Saint Paul wrote, "casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalteth itself"

2. Killing is a necessary part of the game, and though it is in the imagination, again it is written, "by beholding we become changed." What Paul meant is that as we think, we become.

3. Many of the names in the game are the names of demons.

4. As Christians we are taught that our time is of infinite value. The time spent is according to many ministers worse than wasted, and for many who become enchanted by the adrenaline rush of killing and of becoming powerful, there comes an addiction.

5. Most important reason of all, the axiom all Christians ask when not sure: What would Jesus do? Would he play a game where casting spells and killing is constant? Ask your priest and any minister and he will tell you "no".

What does sin do to ourselves and to the body of Christ?

Sin is a destroyer. If a person sins habitually and is a Christian God will take that person out of the lives of other Christians, sometimes by an early death. Sin will destroy the local church, which is part of the Body of Christ. Many Christ believing Churches have gone under because of sin in the membership. An occasional sin if confessed will be forgiven by God as all persons sin, even Christians, but Christians are strongly encouraged to repent of their occasional sins and confess them to God. If Christians do this the Body of Christ is healed. See I John 1:9.)

Will you sin in heaven?

Sin is something that can only occur on earth, and is something that Christians believe all people have committed. In heaven, there is no sin, because it is God's kingdom and only those without sin can enter. Christians also believe that because of the Fall of Adam and Eve, all humans are born with an inclination toward sin, that they will lose when they go to heaven, so they will not want to - nor actually sin.
