Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

You know what makes me sad? The fact that you people believe that every game in the entire universe is evil. I am depressed at the fact that people who have superiority beliefs over others think that God allows those ones who have different views to be judged. Remember: "Jude not, lest ye be judged." in case that message didn't penetrate your extremist skulls, it means to stopwith the race and religion-bashing BS. God would be ashamed of you people thinking that people with a different perspective on God are enemies of him. Did God tell you directly that this person is a confined enemy of Him? Don't also give me that spiritual feeling BS either, because your faith history cannot be proven, as with my experience with God which I can neither turn into cold, hard fact.

Are you trying to convince us that God has no capacity for hate? What kind of God could not hate? You are mocking God and will soon know the power of His Hate!

Nonsense, there are some wonderful Christian games.

We do think that games which glorify sex and war (other than Christian holy war) are evil. They fail to glorify God, and that by default makes them evil.

I am depressed at the fact that people who have superiority beliefs over others think that God allows those ones who have different views to be judged.

God tells us in His Word that He will resurrect all those "who have different views" -- that is, all non-Christians and all false Christians -- specifically so He can burn them alive in His Lake of Fire forever and ever.

We give others, people like you, warning of this fact. That's not judging; that's telling you the consequences of your choices.

Remember: "Jude not, lest ye be judged." in case that message didn't penetrate your extremist skulls, it means to stopwith the race and religion-bashing BS.

Horrifically repetitive Beatles 'song' aside, the verse you reference, when in context, is a warning against HYPOCRITICAL judgment. In fact, the Bible commands us to "Judge with righteous judgment".

But you'd have to read the Bible to know that, huh?

God would be ashamed of you people thinking that people with a different perspective on God are enemies of him. Did God tell you directly that this person is a confined enemy of Him?

Yes.

<-- read it and learn something . . . like what God thinks and who His enemies are.

It's pretty sad when a radical, monkey-worshipping hippie knows more about GOD and the Bible than even gamertards.

...God wouldn't ever raise flesh eating maniacs

Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things"

How about you learn a little about God before you go pronouncing on what He won't do?

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

This game is awesome!!!! going around massacring hordes of zombies with my trusty assault rifle and axe. Heads exploding, blood spewing all over the ground and giggling as it happens...the good times me and my friends have had in Left 4 Dead. Also zombies are evil and God wouldn't ever raise flesh eating maniacs

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

...You have insulted my mother, whom you don't even know...

No, he didn't. You left the possible interpretations open, and he posited one, which he then admitted was based on lack of definite knowledge (that's what "for all we know" means).

...But I will do the good Christian thing and turn the other cheek.

So the "good Christian thing" to do is take offense where none was intended, immediately claim some fictitious moral high ground, and act all victimized?

You'll fit in well around here, if you ever get around to reading a Bible.

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

What the hell does you being the son of a minister have to do with anything? How does that make you any kind of authority, boy? Your lesbian mommy could be a "minister" in some liberal, false Christian church for all we know. And you could be a communist for all I know. Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.




Jesus doesn't say that nobody should cast stones.
He says that he who is without sin may cast stones.

And friend, he who abides in Jesus Christ is made sinfree (as 1 John 3:5-9 says).
Thus, Jesus expects True Christians™ to cast stones. Glory!

I have no desire to flame you. Just by reading through the stuff on this site, I can already tell that you are quite capable of doing that to yourselves.

You have attacked me, sir, for merely speaking my mind in a calm manner. You have insulted my mother, whom you don't even know.

But I will do the good Christian thing and turn the other cheek.

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

If you haven't committed a sin.....throw the stone, if not....walk away....that's what our lord Jesus meant

All that proved was that there was a bunch of sinners there and none of them was saved. Try to follow logic.

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

The important question is whether Jesus was serious, or not. I'm pretty sure you know the answer to that one.

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

I'll save you some time Mr. Richards...you might as well ban the following games:

Brutal Legend - the whole game is about rock and roll
Dragon Age Origins - magic, witchcraft
Dead Space - game takes place in space, killing aliens
Red Faction Guerrilla - whole game takes place on mars
Mass Effect 1/2 - game takes place on different planets
Fable 2 - magic, witchcraft
Lost Planet 1/2 - takes place on another planet with monsters

I could add a bunch more but I don't think I'm going to be taken seriously anyway so I'll stop there...

Oh no please continue
I wanna know about the games you think should be banned!

Excuse me, but I believe that this whole thing has gotten quite out of hand. I am the son of an ordained minister and, I must say, I find your views on this matter quite disturbing.

Re: Latest Video Game Banned in Freehold: Left 4 Dead

Excuse me, but I believe that this whole thing has gotten quite out of hand. I am the son of an ordained minister and, I must say, I find your views on this matter quite disturbing. You all claim to be good Christian people, but you seem more interested in playing God than serving God.

First, it is not within your power to take away our God-given free will. God created us and placed us on this Earth so that we may make our own choice, whether they be right or wrong. If we obey His word and do no harm to our fellow man, then we will be welcome into the kingdom of Heaven with open arms. If we sin, however, and harm our fellow man, we are left to eternal torment in the fires of Hell. That being said, I can't help but notice that one of your smilies () seems to condone genocide. Whatever happened to "Thou shalt not kill?" God gave man free will so that we might live our own lives as best we can and, while some people may do things that we do not agree with, we have to accept that it is their decision to do such and not spend every waking hour trying to deny them that which god gave them.

Second, I must again bring up scripture that has been quoted previously in this very thread.

James 4:12 "There is only one Lawgiver and judge, the one who is able to save and destroy... but you, who are you to judge your neighbour?'

It is not the place of man to place judgement on his fellow man. That is a privelege given only to the one true God. And He is not a respecter of persons. Just as those you condemn will be judged for their sins, so, too, shall you be judged for your transgressions. The sins of your past, whatever they may be, are things that you will still have to answer for when you stand before Him at the ends of your lives. Will He smile upon you for trying to fill His shoes and judge and condemn your fellow man? I think not. I understand that you want to save people's souls, but you have to accept that there are some people in this world who will not be saved, who will refuse to accept Jesus as their saviors. You quote passages from the Old Testament, more specifically from Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, that you believe justify you in your condemnation of your fellow man, but seldom do you quote the New Testament, the books upon which our Christian religion was founded, wherein many passages can be found telling us not to condemn our neighbor but to "Love thy neighbor as you love thyself." That is hypocricy.

Third, the people defending this game have been unjustly label as "Unsaved Trash" and accused of being on drugs. Do you have any evidence to support this? Have you seen these people actually using the drugs? They are merely speaking their own minds and explaining things about the game to you calmly, but you condemn them for their thoughts and tell them that they are going to Hell. Damnation is not within your power. The only one who can decide if their souls are worthy of the torments of Hell is God!

Fourth, as they tried to explain to you, the zombies in the game ARE NOT DEAD. They were infected by a medical "vaccine" that caused them to mutate into terrible soulless monsters. The survivors in the game are them charged with the task of eliminating the infected parties so that, hopefully, an uninfected human civilization will be able to rise from the ashes. It has nothing to do with necromancy (which is communicating with the souls of the deceased, not raising them from their graves), necrophilia (because, honestly, there is nothing about those images that is in any way sexually arousing. In fact, they make me want to puke.), or even the passages from Revelation that were brought up earlier. It is a disease and they are trying their hardest to stop its spread. This is not unlike the way early Christians would subjugate and even kill many pagan worshippers to convert their families and friends to the religion (or, for that matter, the witchhunts of old that caused the deaths of well over 9,000,000 people, most of whom weren't even practicing witchcraft). My point is that, in its own twisted way, the game is actually teaching the players valuable lessons in teamwork and such, not compelling them to take an assault rifle and riddle innocent people with bullets.

In closing, I would just like to state that your incessant need to control everything around you and take away the rights given to people not only by God Almighty, but by our own Democratic government, is not conservativism. It's fascism.

I leave you now with words once spoken by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ:

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
