I always found the objections to these games from a religious perspective to be a problem.

If we were to go along with this idea how long before we would not be allowed to watch movies with fantasy elements (Star Wars for example)? How long before Milton's "Paradise Lost" or Dante's "Divine Comedy" are relegated to the forbidden class? What about devout Christian C.S. Lewis' "Chronicles of Narnia" or his "Screwtape Letters?" To be sure there are those that have already found objection with such movies and reading material but they do not ncecssarily realize that stretching the imagination is a worthy endeavor.
