I've heard that Disney is filled with witchcraft and Satanic themes. Obviously there is "magic" in most movies. Also people have pointed out that three sixes can be found in the logo. However, each movie seems to promote good over evil, so I'm troubled as to what stance to take on it. I welcome any and all points of view on this.

Other than singing songs, kids do no work and adults get duped constantly.
It's a sneaky form of evil. I think they avoid lust but the rest are found.
hubristic pride,
greed,
lust,
malicious envy,
gluttony,
wrath
and sloth.

Years ago Proctor & Gamble was forced to change its logo because of continued claims that the logo was Satanic. Now similar claims are being made regarding Disney's logo. No, Disney is not evil or Satanic.

Disney often shows stereotypical 'witchcraft' in their movies. That, in itself, is not 'unclean'...

But moving pictures, in general, as well as plays, rites, rituals, ceremony, etc., are all forms of sorcery. The whole purpose of most of these 'arts' is to instill some kind of mystical truth. In the case of Disney, many include or, as their main theme, are sexual rites of passage.

Today the messaging is way more complex. It hits you on many levels.

What do you see when you watch their movies? What messages do you hear? Do you see some type of satanic indoctrination or do you see simple entertainment? Do you question your ability to call on the Holy Spirit yourself for discernment?

Christianity is filled with people who on one end find fault in things that are purely innocent, essentially claiming that anything that is not overtly biblical is really anti-Christian. On the other end there are people who try to justify as acceptable even those things clearly condemned in the bible.

What does the Holy Spirit tell you?

Good point Wolfgate...some people see what they want to see regardless of what's right in front of them. One mans magic is another mans satanic worship. Some people just want to object to everything.

Personally I was always a bit suspicious of Dopey's affiliations

Disney doesn't have some sort of satanic hidden agenda. Their logo is composed based off the person Walt Disney's signature and has many swirly loops in it, when these loops are isolated, rotated, flip of whatever they look like a 6. (I counted 7 in the logo). People find what they want. No doubt there has been some inappropriate images hidden in their animations but these do not reflect the ethos of the company as a whole and are more about malicious animators acting on their own accord.

With that said they are also not a Christian company. Values can overlap with Christian values but in the end we need to be responsible with the content.

I gave up Disney. It is full of witchcraft and even sneaky sexual references and adult jokes. They make witchcraft as "cool" and making the loser or outcast somebody with it. Such as Cinderella....if it wasn't for magic she would still be a servant. It is all very coy.

Simple:

Fantasy magic is harmless make-believe. Conflating it with ritual magick--certain religious practices engaged in by some modern day neo-pagans--is quite silly. It's the difference between waving around a wand and saying whimsical gibberish phrases to make sparkly lights (as something in a work of fiction) and the real life worship of false gods.

There are not three sixes in the Disney logo, the Disney logo is based on Walt's own handwritten signature,

So simple answer: Fantasy magic is silly fantasy fictional fluff. There is nothing sinister about a man's signature or a logo based upon the same. Disney movies aren't promoting Satan by making animated pictures about fairy tales.

There may be lots of reasons to be critical of Disney as a corporation, but these are not some of those reasons.

Should Christians not watch Shakesphere? I saw a production of A Midsummer Nights Dream this past year--fairies play an important role in that play. MacBeth features three witches. Should we not read Grimm's Fairy Tales? Should we not read or watch the many movies based on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens? After all, it features ghosts. Where do we draw the line?

BTW as pointed out by ViaCrucis, the claim that the Disney logo features 666 is rubbish. A number of years ago Proctor and Gamble was forced to change its logo because Christian extremists falsely claimed that the old logo was Satanic. It was not, but it cost the company millions of dollars to change it.

Walt Disney was a Rosicrucian and that is not fiction. Rosicrucians are Luciferians by their own statements and writings and carry on the work of the Coven through their respective organizations—that's their whole purpose. Rosicrucians are precisely the type of people who make use of sigil magic in signatures, logos and other media. The [secular] understanding and use we have of logos today is directly evolved from western ritual magic. With that being said I don't personally think 666 was intentional but to discredit these 'arts' with the statement "Fantasy magic is silly fantasy fictional fluff" is, in my opinion, dangerous to Christians in particular. I wonder how many people actually read their Bibles and are even remotely conscious of the very real spiritual enemies we face and weapons that they wield. Then again I have serious doubts considering that most Christians blindly incorporate their own organizations using methods that were not very long ago considered as sorcery.

All movies are 'witchcraft' and 'magic/mystical'. They are intended to 'bewitch' or 'cast a spell' on you. Rosicrucians consider themselves white magicians and so most of their spells will be intended as 'benevolent', to grant you a 'revelation' of spiritual truth. Many of these 'truths' are not compatible with the Bible but seem 'good' and have a way of making it into your worldview from just watching movies and subconsciously accepting the idea being presented. People would be dumbfounded to know how many writers, directors, animators, editors, etc., etc., etc., are not just involved, but highly involved in the occult and how popular occultism is in Hollywood.

Perhaps to make things easier to digest in 2017: Movies are hypnosis. The idea is to get you into a relaxed state and then insert thoughts and ideas into your mind. Nothing devious about that! Certainly not!

Their job is easy once they convince one to associate the definitions of "magic" and "sorcery" with fairies, unicorns and goblins—that's all part of overcoming one's defenses. In my opinion you appear to be the superstitious one. You must also believe that God is a man who lives on top of a cloud—and, based on your signature as a Lutheran, you yourself participate in rites and rituals founded on the concepts of magic as you believe a piece of bread is magically transmuted into the actual body of Jesus Christ when you partake of the Eucharist. The statement is not to discredit Lutherans in any way, it is to point out either a double standard in your ideology or a willing ignorance to the extent of spiritual warfare in the world today. Cheers.

There is no secret or hidden agenda within Disney to promote a Satanic agenda. However, that being said, we need to also recognize that Disney is NOT a Christian organization. As far as I know, the movie directors, screenwriters, and decision makers about what goes in their theme parks are not Christian.

Therefore, you will have a worldly philosophy behind the work at Disney.

It is up to us as parents to discern what is appropriate for our children to watch when it comes to Disney. However, the same could be said of every single other thing in this world.

And as far as anything "magic" being innately evil in its presentation - CS Lewis, who penned the Chronicles of Narnia most certainly had witches, satyrs, nymphs, and a host of "magical creatures" within his work.

Magic is witchcraft. I am not saying the child entertainers are, those are illusions *usually*. Magic is just a word to put a blanket over it..to hide what it really is..to make it seem appealing and to take you away from reality in a state where you easily influenced. When clearly they use wands and cast spells and are practioners of witchcraft. Even making "good" characters participate in it. It is all ok if they use it to defeat enemies right?
People say they don't believe in magic, well magic is witchcraft.

Unicorns, mermaids etc I believe are demons in an appealing form. I had to give them up as well. Some say mermaids are water demons.

Disney make it all appealing through cute characters and princesses..and make it into a fantasy world children would like to escape to where they can do what they want...every child's mind is influenced easily. These movies are so captivating..they cast a sort of spell on children..some even so they grow up being huge Disney fan adults.

I was into several Childrens witchcraft shows/movies and I know how captivating they are. It is astonishing how much of the "good" characters had used their own "special powers" (demonic powers). That is just wicked.

is it harmless? Not if they are making an abomination ok. That is hugely influencing

I know not everyone will take me seriously but the info I have watched is shocking

Superstition has no place in Christianity.

The Canon Episcopi, which was for most of the middle ages regarded as the official Christian position on the subject,

"Bishops and their officials must labor with all their strength to uproot thoroughly from their parishes the pernicious art of sorcery and malefice invented by the devil, and if they find a man or woman follower of this wickedness to eject them foully disgraced from the parishes. For the Apostle says, "A man that is a heretic after the first and second admonition avoid." Those are held captive by the Devil who, leaving their creator, seek the aid of the Devil. And so Holy Church must be cleansed of this pest. "It is also not to be omitted that some unconstrained women, perverted by Satan, seduced by illusions and phantasms of demons, believe and openly profess that, in the dead of night, they ride upon certain beasts with the pagan goddess Diana, with a countless horde of women, and in the silence of the dead of the night to fly over vast tracts of country, and to obey her commands as their mistress, and to be summoned to her service on other nights. "But it were well if they alone perished in their infidelity and did not draw so many others into the pit of their faithlessness. For an innumberable multitude, deceived by this false opinion, believe this to be true and, so believing, wander from the right faith and relapse into pagan errors when they think that there is any divinity or power except the one God. "Wherefore the priests throughout their churches should preach with all insistence to the people that they may know this to be in every way false, and that such phantasms are sent by the devil who deludes them in dreams. Thus Satan himself, who transforms himself into an angel of light, when he has captured the mind of a miserable woman and has subjected her to himself by infidelity and incredulity, immediately changes himself into the likeness of different personages and deluding the mind which he holds captive and exhibiting things, both joyful and sorrowful, and persons, both known and unknown, and leads her faithless mind through devious ways. And while the spirit alone endures this, she thinks these things happen not in the spirit but in the body. "Who is there that is not led out of himself in dreams and nocturnal visions, and sees much sleeping that he had never seen waking? "Who is so stupid and foolish as to think that all these things that are done in the spirit are done in the body, when the Prophet Ezekiel saw visions of God in spirit and not in body, and the Apostle John saw and heard the mysteries of the Apocalypse in spirit and not in body, as he himself says "I was rapt in Spirit". And Paul does not dare to say that he was rapt in his body. "It is therefore to be publically proclaimed to all that whoever believes in such things, or similar things, loses the Faith, and he who has not the right faith of God is not of God, but of him in whom he believes, that is the devil. For of our Lord it is written, "All things were made by Him." Whoever therefore believes that anything can be made, or that any creature can be changed to better or worse, or transformed into another species or likeness, except by God Himself who made everything and through whom all things were made, is beyond a doubt an infidel."

Witchcraft is not power, it is delusion; and to believe that devils have such great power is to be regarded as heathen superstition, rejected and regarded as heresy.

To believe in witches, witchcraft, or magical "arts" is to subscribe to pagan superstition.

I noticed that all Disney stories seem to have spells, curses, fairies, fairy godmothers etc, all of which I thought may be part of those who oppose the Living God . I noticed that nearly everything coming out of the cinema, radio and television seems to oppose Scripture. I thought maybe I was being a bit too careful avoiding all of it most of the time but Galatians 5 : 20 idolatry and witchcraft…. Revelation 22 : 15 Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts…Galatians 5:21 …..I warn you , as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

I seem to be in a permanent battle. the kids schools send home day trips to Harry Potter (wizardry) and to theatre shows like Matilda (telekinesis- controlling others by the powers of your mind in evil ways), even Star Wars films use “the force” not The Holy Spirit. I have had to revert to a life of documentaries and the news!

I caved in the other day to watch a black and white film 80 years old to find the actors clutching a false god / idol -lucky charm placing their trust in it (not God) to spare them in wartime and confiding their joy in love to the stars in the sky not praying to God. So if it was like that 80 years ago and the nations are still receiving a steady diet of it from the media, I would call all this evidence of the ongoing war of Satan and demons for human deception leading to destruction. Absolutely sad and sinister.
