Video Game developed by Rick Warren

[Chrystalwuzhere]

You guys have to get a load of this. Rick Warren, writer of the Purpose Driven Life, is now marketing a video game to children. You won't believe the premise of the game. Please note that this game is based on some of the things found in the Left Behind series, and is endorsed by Tim LaHaye. What is wrong with these people?

This game immerses children in present-day New York City -- 500 square blocks, stretching from Wall Street to Chinatown, Greenwich Village, the United Nations headquarters, and Harlem. The game rewards children for how effectively they role play the killing of those who resist becoming a born again Christian. The game also offers players the opportunity to switch sides and fight for the army of the AntiChrist, releasing cloven-hoofed demons who feast on conservative Christians and their panicked proselytes (who taste a lot like Christian).

Is this paramilitary mission simulator for children anything other than prejudice and bigotry using religion as an organizing tool to get people in a violent frame of mind? The dialogue includes people saying, "Praise the Lord," as they blow infidels away.

I am offended and disgusted.

These turkeys are suppose to be Christians! :eek:

That is the reaction from most Christians who see this. I wish I could say I'm embellishing this, but unfortunately, I'm not. This game really is as sick as it sounds.

Rick Warren, I am not surprised. Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins? I'm becoming less surprised.

I also read an article that said that Rick Warren has churches all over the globe in his Purpose Driven "Network". So to further market this thing:



To generate buzz for "Eternal Forces," Lyndon and Frichner plan to distribute 1 million sample discs to churches nationwide.

Really promoting Christ, isn't he?

LaHaye has said and done a lot of things over the years that have made me uncomfortable with him.

That is terrible. I thought that volience and such things were something that we are suppose to be getting rid of.

Are they being total hypocrites or what??


As a Christain parent, I would not spend one dime on Video games with volience. THey think thier games is any differnt??

Its not, its volience also. That is such garbage.

They think because the money is directed to so called "christain ministries its vald??

Boy they have something to learn.

I used to like those people, now I am not sure of where their priorities are.

I used to like those people, now I am not sure of where their priorities are.
Money and prestige. That has been apparent, to me, for years, concerning LaHaye.
