Re: Minecraft: Makes children sex slaves and destroys our economy!
As a computer nerd and gamer, perhaps I can shed a little light on what Minecraft entails.
Minecraft is coded to be run in Java runtime environment, and written in JDK.
If it were written in C, C++, or C#, it would probably look better. Provided that were the intent.
Minecraft was built on nostalgia. It was built for older gamers who had played the old games before 3D analographing (Has to do with how the picture renders on your screen. No relation to the anus.)
I saw a comment about how modern graphics cards could handle better?
Well, you are absolutely correct. Modern graphics cards can do amazing things you wouldn't even understand. With things like SLI and Crossfire, people can link two or more graphics cards.
And with the GTX 680 release, combined with quadruple SLI, you have more power than you can imagine what to do with it. Granted that would be $2600 on just graphics cards.
However, Minecraft used more RAM and CPU than anything, so having a huge GPU wouldn't make a huge difference.
You can also modify your game to allow HD texture packs that make it look nicer.

Griefing is when another player destroys someone else's work. That is correct.
However, the owners of the server have many ways to combat that. There are plugins like Towny which block out players not in your town from editing in the area, and things like Hawkeye, which shows who made the change so the griefer can be banned.
If the admins were doing this to exploit children, why would they fight griefing so fiercely?
Not to mention that most griefers are children who don't have the maturity to respect the work of others, and that other players tend to want children to play on single player mode so the older players can have fun.
It is probably less of a risk than any other part of the internet, this site included.
A large server has maybe fifty members. Hardly luring hundreds of children there...
Minecraft is a program. It is not a browser based game. They have an in-browser version, but it does not have multi-player and hasn't been updated since alpha.
An IP does not work that way. You can not simply track down someone's location by their IP. Maybe their country or state, but not their house or anything.
I will admit I laughed very hard at the creeper. The "exploding penis" as you put it.
That joke has been around for quite some time. The actual model came when the creator failed at making a pig. He put the body dimensions in backwards and got something rather creepy.
For the porn, I would like to refer to Rule #34: "If it exists, there is porn of it. No exceptions."
This is true. Nothing is spared.
I am also curious as to what proof you have that that was drawn by a child.
Have you ever made a circle out of squares? It's bloody difficult. He has every right to be proud of that.
I can also tell you that very few scrotum are made of stone bricks.
Jokes aside, that is a replica of a city from a videogame or a movie. I can't remember what it's from, but I've seen it elsewhere.
I.... Uhhm.... Are you serious on this?
I can't tell... You've slipped into a little rant that made no sense....
Homemade tools typically aren't that great of quality, sure. You'd be better off buying a Husky or a Craftsman. But buying a chinese piece of shit won't do much better for the economy.
We actually do need more farmers. Not enough farmers, and we risk a famine.
Buying houses on borrowed money is what hurt our economy so badly in the first place.
There are a few zoning laws against some random guy just building a house, anyways. So you don't have to worry about that.
I thought TV was bad? At the top of this page it talks about how evil Hollywood and Disney are.
Besides that, idle hands are the devil's play-thing. Perhaps Minecraft is one of God's subtle saving-graces?
Minecraft was created by a Swedish developer while Bush was still in office.
Obama probably doesn't even know it exists.
Just as well or he'd try to give it health care. >_<

That emoticon, which is hosted on this very site, seem familiar?
It is the same one in that first screenshot.
Nothing satanic about it.
The second one is a texture pack made by players (NOT the official developer) for Halloween. It would be used for a week or so, and then turned off.
Nothing to worry about.

Turning children into sex slaves, or "griefing" as they call it.
There is not a single controlled Minecraft environment. Every pedophile can start his own Minecraft server and start luring in hundreds of innocent children. He can first let them build for hours and hours and then threaten to destroy their work unless they do his bidding. The Minecraft term for using children as sex slaves is "griefing". There is no protection whatsoever against pornography inside Minecraft and there is no control over what the inside chat function is used for. Minecraft is web browser based, so every child who can surf the web, can get lured in by an online pedophile. Since every pedophile can start his own Minecraft server, pedophiles can also track down your children using their IP address!
Joel 3:1 "For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink."

Destroying our economy!
Minecraft teaches children that you can create your own tools by combining ingredients instead of the American way of ordering online or going to Walmart. It teaches children they can farm their own food instead of teaching them the American way of going to McDonald's. It teaches them to waste huge amounts of time on making their own buildings instead of the American way of buying a house with borrowed money! It teaches children to be creative instead of watching commercials on television! All this clearly damages and ultimately destroys the American economy! It can be no coincidence that this game was created while Obama is in office!
Acts 8:1 "And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles."
