Charity Refuses Donation Because of D&D Connection

An anonymous reader writes "This year's GenCon Charity Auction raised over $17,000 which they intended to donate to Gary Gygax's favorite charity, Christian Children's Fund. However, the charity refused the donation when they learned of its connection to Dungeons & Dragons." It seems to me all they would need to do is cast remove curse or dispel evil and the money would be fine to use.

agreed. child's play deserves the money at which the snooty creationists turned up their noses.

No, this particular donation appeared to imply an endorsement. They're in no way saying that every donation received implies an endorsement. Why they feel that way is probably related to the detail of how the funds were raised and donated (as in, I'm not a lawyer so I wouldn't know).

Yeah, you are right - they are just saying that this particular donation by this particular group of devil worshipers would imply an endorsement - thanks for clearing that up.

Do you believe in the theory of evolution? Do you believe in the FSF way of life/software? Do you believe in more of these unproven theories - could I go back through your posts and find you theorizing what would make a better political system, who would be the best leader, or the likes? Those too would be you beliefs in things unseen and unproven if they are at all true.
