How Dungeons & Dragons changed my view on "Gods"
Posted on April 25, 2012 at 12:25am 4 Comments 0 Likes
Many people I know play Dungeons and Dragons as a hobby. I really started to think about it the other day and I realized that It played an integral role in shaping my mind to think more rationally, even though it deals with mostly fantasy aspects of fiction.
I started playing when invited and enjoyed making characters and trying out new voices and pretending to have the different attitudes of the characters I was portraying (not as serious as it sounds, just a bunch of guys sitting…

Tony Carroll said… Hey Josh. Awhile back, few years ago, while reading some Plato, atheism was mentioned in a footnote. Not called atheism by Plato, Socrates, or that group, but the meaning basically the same. At the time, it meant if you did not believe in the other persons god, you were an atheist. Still could beleive in your own and practice it. So all religions, according to that definition, are atheistic. Pretty funny, huh. Well, peace, my young friend.
