IMO it’s blasphemous; I decline to elaborate further; anything connected to God is holy and therefore set apart for me. Love you brother God bless, we follow the second commandment. We actively seek out and rid ourselves of graven images and carvings of what is above or below. Including iconographic artworks depicting Lord Jesus, His angels, etc; we still find these things in boxes, storage, from time to time. We cast out a Star Trek “Warf” piggy bank from our home this week when we spotted it hiding in a nook forgotten for a time. Literally want to follow the commandment closely. No idols; no figurines, no baseball cards; if I ever find the rest of my yugioh or magic cards I will burn them 100%
The last ecumenical council is what okayed icons; as a Protestant I disagree; better to err on the side of caution.
Pretty much yeah. I used to pay hundreds of dollars for individual cards in my deck to be competitive. I had decks that were at one point worth over or nearly a thousand dollars.
I still sucked. Burn it all. What would a man give for his soul? All gonna burn someday anyway.

If it is to you, let you be convinced in your own mind. I do agree that erring on caution with regards to all that is holy is generally for the best.
Nice work on the idols and images front! I should do that myself.
Went upstairs found the old Yugioh cards in a MTG deck box; burned them.
I’m guessing Pokémon would fall in that too, neh?
