Oh, we know they worry less about having sex. Which means they do not worry about engaging in buggery, incest and adultery. S*x is not there to be enjoyed, but endured for the sake of having Godly Children.

If it wasn't God intention be enjoyable he wouldn't made is like that to begin with.

Re: Geeks compare themselves to GOD:

Mr. Dumbsh*t, there is no such thing as a "blasphemous joke". Blasphemy is blasphemy, and you get sent to HELL for it. If you are playing this ungodly game, you will go too, and the Devil shall torment you.

Spore= SPAWN! As in the Devil's spawn.

"Blasphemous" is an adjective, meaning a word that describes something...

"blasphemous joke" is a joke that is meant to be blasphemy.

I'm sorry that you're offended by having an asterisk inserted in your vulgar name; however, this IS a Christian Church forum, not some Super Mario FaGalaxies chat board, or a discussion of that other vile game . . . what is it? Spooge?

Re: Geeks compare themselves to GOD:

As it's a game it's pure entertainment, nothing wrong about it. Games like Spore make you learn about patterns, you change something and the whole game model changes with it. But it's not real, so no harm is done, you don't clone or re-combine DNA in real, you just make some goofy creatures that cease to exist the moment you delete them. You are searching too much behind the whole thing.

Teflon, you come to a Christian forum seeking guidance, so it is my Christian duty to try to help you.

First, God wants us to be productive members of society, and these video games create a fantasy world of imaginary creatures and places. While it can get quite elaborate with battles and characters, it boils down to a simplistic premise of "us" against "them" that is ultimately a huge waste of time that, sadly, can cause people to escape from reality and sometimes these things really take over.

Instead, I have but my faith in the Bible and its teachings, and I would like to share some of direction God gives us about these games. Exodus 20:13 plainly reads "Thou shall not Kill," but we have to ask ourselves what is killing? You might argue that a video game is nothing more than 1's and 0's and complex mathematical equations but a player guilty of games like “Grand Theft Auto,” and “Mafia,” kills innocent people and glorifies criminal behavior on a spiritual level. When you play, you become your character in your mind, and when your video game character does not lead a life in Christ, you do not lead a life in Christ!

Another common issue is that some games require the character to use magic. Exodus 22:18 states “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live,” and Leviticus 19:31 reads "Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neitherseek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God." Like the killing question one has to recognize on a spiritual level this is spellcraft.

They give you the sense that you are powerful and Godlike and I don't think I need to quote the Bible for you to know instinctively that this is wrong.

Finally, these games make noise and it is a natural tendency to play them in your room with the door closed. And when you are in your room with the door closed, there are a lot more temptations and sinful thoughts and actions that can take over your spirit when you play. Be honest with me now, and tell me: when you play these games and get all excited and "pumped up," you masturbate, don't you. Can you honestly tell me that you have never masturbated just before or after you get on these games?

Video games are sinful, the work of the Devil. They dull the senses. Get your mind ready for action in the spirit of Jesus (1 Peter 1:13; 1 Peter 4:7) and cast these games aside. Live in the Bible and not in some video game. Glory to God!

I LOVE VIDEO GAMES ! The work of the devil you say? Man... what the hell are you on? Why would I want to live my life to a false icon? I think the bible dulls the sences, because now you can not decide for your self and deicide what is right and wrong, only to what some thing has told you.

I am on my way to a life after death in the presence of God, a life that I am honored to live and was paid for by Jesus's death on the cross. You are on a one way trip to the fires of Hell where Satan will sodomize you for eternity and where you will be forced to learn to spell.

I urge you to REBUKE these video games in the holy name of JESUS and to turn to the proper path before it is too late (and as for your silence to my masturbation observation, I'll take that as a yes. You need to stop that, too, if you want to get to Heaven).

My point, Mr. Dumbsh*t, is that blasphemy isn't a joke:

Leviticus 24:16
And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the Lord, shall be put to death.

Mark 3:29
But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.

You see, Mr. Dumbsh*t? As True Christians™, we are duty-bound to stone you and then you shall be sent to Hell.
