I don't play the game you speak of. I sometimes indulge in playing the game "Madden" because I am a huge football fan. Is this wrong? My son and daughter also like this as entertainment.

I may be in the minority opinion here, but anything to do with God's favorite sport, is okay in my book. I just hope you play with the Dallas Cowboys.

Agree 100%. I just assumed he was talking about some "Kill The Goblin King and Steal His Chalice of Eternal Faggotry", or something.

Tunahomer, it's like this. Are books evil? No. A lot of them are, the majority, sure - but the Bible is a book. So they can't all be evil.

I guess the same thing would apply to videogames, right?

This has been a thought-provoking conversation. I'm going to go read my KJV1611.

Madden ftw, but fuck the cowboys, how could you support them when they have Tony Homo as a quarterback and scantily clad women dancing on the sidelines, isnt that a sin, the football players should be disciplining those deranged females

Re: Video Games????

Ok so now I understand the beating thing better. Help me to understand why video games are evil.

The problem is that video games give a false sense of achievement, where you could be spending that time to practice the Lord's teachings and ACTUALLY achieve something.

Friend, you sure do seem upset.

Eagles fan or Deadskins maybe?

Re: Video Games????

What about video games that advocate the beating of women? I have no wife at the moment, so can only think that playing as Ryu and beating up provocatively dressed sluts can be good practice.

I see very little point in beating up women in video games. Games that allow it usually have it as an optional sub-plot aside of crime/terrorism simulation (think GTA). Or else it is a part of devil worship (Diablo, Dante's inferno). Fighting games are more neutral, but there is no connection to divine guidance there either.

I have yet to see games where you can spank kids, and that award you with more obeying kids, think "True Christian Sims". Good parents need to spank their kids sometimes. But unless you somehow marry an atheist woman with verbal diarrhea (which is a sin anyway), you rarely need to beat your wife.

I do not let my kids play video games until there's games built on Christian values. I know that Diablo II offer the option to play as a Paladin, but since the game is team incentive, you might have to team with sorceresses, necromancers, druids and barbarians.
