Anyone heard of this, I came across it the other day. Basically as far as I can tell its a christian RTS where you go around trying to convert or kill the unbelievers in NY. I also read that when your soldiers etc are victorious they shout praises to God.

What would happen if I were to create a video game where, instead of saying "God is the greatest" or whatever, my characters said "Allahu Ackbar" (maybe the last level could be like err I dunno destroying a couple of tall buildings in the city because the unbelievers wouldn't convert).

It doesn't take a genius to work out that I would cause mass outcry and probably be shipped off to guantanamo bay. Anyone see the point I'm trying to make here? Your opinions?

Every time I see a commercial on TV recorded by a "brit" sounding guy for a cleaning-polishing-mopping-lime removing product there is this guy who screams at me. Whats wrong with him?

Do people really not see the difference between a fully grown human being with a complex fully functioning central nervous system capable of feeling emotion, pain, intelligent though and containing billions of memories, and a small cluster of embryonic cells the size of a pin head with no ability to feel emotion, pain, though of any kind and no memories. What kind of person wouldn’t kill the second one to save millions of the 1st one every year? What possible opposition could someone have to stem cell research?

a sick or infirm elderly person or someone in prison or a homebound lonely person, you are like the angels that ministered to Jesus in the Garden before he was put to death?

I think gifts should be for something fun, cool, and something you want, but wouldn't spend the money on it. Do you know of something like that?

they did a study, they found that people that claimed they were born agains through Christ and felt a weird sensation, were actually just feeling the effects of extra strong coffee.

So apparently drinking really strong coffee is the identical feeling one would have when they become 'born again'....cool huh?

What is a great gift to get my husband for Christmas. He doesn't wear jewelry, he hates clothes, he doesn't have any hobbies, etc., and he is a builder so he already has every tool known to mankind. Please help!

I mean the very religious Christians who really believe in the Bible. They say that Jews are God's chosen people and at the same time they always say that all the people who don't believe in Jesus will go to hell and this obviously includes Jews. Is it not a contradiction?

I know it's real and I do believe, but does this gift scare anyone else? I know it's because I don't understand it and never will til God allows me, but to those who do have the gift...What is it like? When and where were you when you received this gift? Were you scared at first?

Most people I know say that they can feel God's presence when they pray, I never have... Should I be worried?

It is so funny that as a woman I found it so hard to meet a serious woman who has her head on right. Who is not a game player. Come on women, you know that men play games. So why do you?

Made me laugh. It's not tasteless, unless you're so serious about religion you ignore science.
