When did the Roman Catholic Church want to ban RPGs?

Are you not familiar with the satanic panic?

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 2 months ago

That was mainly perpetuated by crazy Evangelical Protestants, not Roman Catholics

IDK they were a bit upset last time when I brought my emotional support RPG-7 to the Vatican

If they didn't want to be a raid dungeon they wouldn't make it look like a raid dungeon.

Have you heard about all of the loot they hoard? Dragons have nothing on the Vatican.

Looks like you're ok when people make jokes about atheists but not about the church ;)

The joke doesn't make sense because they are likely referring to the Satanic Panic which wasn't the Roman Catholic Church

If you're gonna joke about the Roman Catholic Church, at least do it right
