I think assuming that he's "blindly following a sentiment" is a much greater leap than assuming he has a reason for his distaste. If I was going to guess, I'd say he was an atheist (and therefore doesn't believe religion is true and presumably sees it as a spreader of untruth) and perhaps an...

Just because he hasn't said why doesn't mean he is without a reason.

Uhh what % of Americans call themselves nonbelievers? Like 10%? Also don't confuse secular with atheist. The problem is that a vaguely Biblical story would go down ok with the non-religious crowd, but anyone who is basing a game on the Bible will most likely be an evangelical and trying too...

You can't understand the basic premise of evolution by natural selection? It's pretty basic mate. At least evolution is generally interesting...ever hear of a game called Spore? The Bible contains too many contradictions to make a game out of...the narrative wouldn't make sense.

Clear?! LOLWUT. You'd need a team of 27 theologians just to understand which bits are metaphor and what "context" the verses could possibly be in that makes them ok. My theory as to why all bible games have been terrible: The Bible itself is terrible. Poor source material.

Of course I don't...if I did I'd be a creationist. I don't really see what you're getting at. The problem is these scriptures are open to interpretation. Who are you to say that your moderate interpretation of the bible is more accurate than a literal one? Or a violent one? Ambiguous...

Faitheists like you are the reason religion is put in a giant criticism bubble. I think that's far worse of a crime than being an "internet stereotype". I didn't say anything hateful or even angry in my post, yet you paint me as a raging fundy. First of all, the only fundamental ideal within...

Yes I've read the bible and attended multiple catholic and christian schools. Remember the parts about Sodom and Gomorrah? Not exactly tales of exquisite morality. Even the 10 commandments - the best the bible has to offer on morality...they're an awful guide. Hell, forget the bible, look at...

Let the atheists have theirs. We get bombarded with christian propaganda every day. When atheists put unsubtle messages into their comedies suddenly it's unacceptable. Let's get some perspective here.

Have you read the Koran or the Bible?

Again...I'm not saying I'm not hostile. I'm as hostile as they come, so please show me where I inferred the opposite. Tolerance and respect are two different things. I tolerate religion every single day, that doesn't mean I automatically have to respect it, and it doesn't mean it is above...

I appreciate the snap judgment, but culpable of what? Hostility? Of course, I love a hostile argument and I make no apologies for that. My problem is when religious people refuse to engage on the grounds of hurt feelings or "offense" (as if my offense at their belief system is irrelevant). Get...

Oh lighten up.

I think it's also worth pointing out the immorality that religion promotes (see stoning adulterers and apostates to death, killing gays, etc).

Fixed. (Sorry, couldn't help myself.)
