"Prevent all instant or sorcery by opponent this turn"?
If so what is the name of that card.

What do you mean? Prevent all damage from instants and sorceries? Counter all instants and sorceries? Opponents can't play spells this turn? Definitely not a red or black ability by any stretch of the imagination. The first only appears in some form on three white cards ( Energy Storm , Hidden Retreat , Refraction Trap ). There is nothing that does the second (short of Swift Silence , if everything else is on the stack already). The third is also a white ability (see Silence , Grand Abolisher , Iona, Shield of Emeria ).

It's in the 'Bonkers' expansion, along with blue mana ramp, white direct damage, green discard, red permission, and black artifact destruction.

Except that blue gets mana ramp. Not as much as green, but blue usually gets mana dorks that add colorless mana, and Planar Chaos shifted Harrow to blue . White also occasionally gets direct damage, but it's more to punish an aggressive strategy, or to hose black or red. Red used to get permission as a hoser, and can counter counters to this day. Artifact destruction, again, is old stuff , but exists. So that just leaves green discard. Um, Disrupting Scepter ?
"Prevent instants and sorceries" makes no sense in any sort of template. Players can't play them? Counter them? Prevent damage from them? Stop people from playing spells? (Because, um, instants and flash aren't hurt as much by Rule of Law as other cards.) Um, what?
Clever deduction Watson! Maybe you can explain why Supergirl is trying to kill me.

Black and Red really dont prevent damage. They usually are the ones dealing it. Isolated Chapel does the same thing as Plains and Swamp except you choose if you want White or Black when you tap it.

Everything is better when you read it in Bane's voice.
Your human antics and desire to continue living have moved me. Just kidding. You cannot move me physically or emotionally. Wall humor.
Copy effects work like a photocopy machine: you get a copy of the 'naked' card, NOT of what's on it.
Funny story: InQuest Magazine (I think it was InQuest) had an oversized Chaos Orb which I totally rooked someone into allowing into a (non-sanctioned) game. I had a proxy card that was a Mountain with "Chaos Orb" written on it. When I played it, my opponent cried foul:
Him: "WTF? a Proxy? no-one said anything about Proxies. Do you even own an actual Chaos Orb?" Me: "Yes, but I thought it would be better to use a Proxy." Him: "No way. If you're going to put a Chaos Orb in your deck you have to use your actual Chaos Orb." Me: "*Sigh*. Okay."
I pulled out this huge Chaos Orb and placed it on the table. He tried to cry foul again but everyone else said he insisted I use my actual Chaos Orb and that was my actual Chaos Orb. I used it, flipped it and wiped most of his board.
Unsurprisingly, that only worked once and only because everyone present thought it was hilarious. 
My DM on Battleminds:
no, see i can kill defenders, but 8 consecutive crits on a battlemind, eh walk it off.
Hi guys! So, I'm a sort of returning player to Magic. I say sort of because as a child I had two main TCG's I liked. Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pokemon. Some of my friends branched off in to Magic, and I bought two pre-made decks just to kind of fit in. Like I said, Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon were what I really knew how to play. I have a extensive knowledge of deck building in those two TCG's. However, as far as Magic is concerned, I only ever used those two pre made decks. I know how the game is played, and I know general things, but now I want to get in the game for real. I want to begin playing it as a regular. My question is, are all cards ever released from the time of the inception of this game until present day fair game in a deck? Or are there special rules? Are some cards forbidden or restricted? Thanks guys, and I will gladly accept ANY help lol. 
I have the same problem with women.
Is this my new ego sig? Yes it is, other Barry

And that's why you should never, ever call RP Jesus on being a troll, because then everyone else playing along gets outed, too, and the thread goes back to being boring.
See, this is why RPJesus should be in charge of the storyline. The novel line would never have been cancelled if he had been running the show. Specifically the Slobad and Geth's Head talkshow he just described.
Not only was that an obligatory joke, it was an on-topic post that still managed to be off-topic due to thread derailment. RP Jesus does it again folks.
I think I'm gonna' start praying to Jesus... That's right, RPJesus, I'm gonna' be praying to you, right now.
O' Jesus
Please continue to make my time here on the forums fun and cause me to chuckle.
Amen.
It was wonderful. Us Johnnies had a field day. That Timmy with the Grizzly bears would actually have to think about swinging into your Mogg Fanatic , giving you time to set up your silly combo . Nowadays it's all DERPSWING! with thier blue jeans and their MP3 players and their EM EM OH AR PEE JEES and their "Dewmocracy" and their children's card games and their Jersey Shores and their Tattooed Tenaged Vampire Hunters from Beverly Hills 
Seriously, that was amazing. I laughed my *ss off. Made my day, and I just woke up.

Isolated Chapel does the same thing as Plains and Swamp except you choose if you want White or Black when you tap it.
Slight quibbles:
It's not a swamp for Corrupt or Liliana of the Dark Realms . Godless Shrine will be in Gatecrash, though, and it is a plains and a swamp (but you only tap for one mana).
All three lands (Chapel, Shrine, Orzhov Guildgate) have a downside:
The Gate ETB tapped all the time, but it's common, so yeah. (Also, it has the "gate" subtype, but that's parasitic and right now doesn't seem to be going anywhere, so we'll ignore it.) Isolated Chapel ETB tapped unless you control an actual plains or swamp (or a land that counts as either*). Godless Shrine ETB tapped unless you pay 2 life; believe me, if you want to cast something and need that extra mana, pay the 2 life. It's not a huge deal.
