This reminds me a little of that woman from Wife Swap.

I'm noticing a trend with sites such as these: Almost all of these items* are from other cultures, mostly Asian.
So, I think what we really have in these "demonic items" is a case of epic xenophobia.
*=The rest being anything that has ties to magic, real or fake, portrayed as bad or good. Never mind the mysticism surrounding Christianity.

Can anyone tell these people on that website the 80's are over. Why the 80's?

This reminds me a little of that woman from Wife Swap. "IT'S ALL UNGOLDY!" And like her, this site would turn me against Christianity in a heartbeat. I mean, would you rather be a Christian, where supposedly loving people screamed at you 24/7 if you so much as altered your breathing pattern the wrong way? Or would you rather be ....pretty much anything else, where people actually do care about each other and you don't have to give yourself ulcers because you're spending every moment, waking or not, worried about stepping on some higher power's toes? I know that doesn't represent all Christianity, but it sure as hell doesn't bring anyone closer to God.

I'm also tempted to call Poe, but nothing surprises me anymore. Seriously, nothing. The bit about the Care Bears got me rolling on the floor for laughing, though---right, we can't have kids EXPRESSING THEIR EMOTIONS or anything like that! Especially not love! There was never any prominent figure in Christianity who preached love and acceptance, was there? Noo, not in MY religion! Oh, wait, Jesus said that? Well, shit...

Remember, Real Christians don't follow the words of Jesus. They follow the true words of Paul. Following Jesus' words of love and acceptance is Satanic.

Looked through some of the archives--this site is an FSTDT goldmine!

And how is condemning virtually everything I own, and everything I do, how is that supposed to persuade me to join their side of this artificial divide?
If I were to believe everything they say on that site, and had to get rid of all the stuff the deem 'demonic', then I wouldn't have anything left in my house, including the house itself.
Poe or not, if anything, this site will provide lots of entertainment for us here.

Am I the only one who thought this thread was going to be about DemonBuster? I still have no idea whether or not that site is a Poe or serious. It's just so over-the-top in its craziness that it's almost self-parody.

This reminds me a little of that woman from Wife Swap. "IT'S ALL UNGOLDY!" She was from Trading Spouses, not Wife Swap.[/nitpick] But since when did "Smurf" translate to 'devil?"
