Christians Attack "Gay Agenda" in PC Game

[HobbesMkii]

No one seems to object to them pushing the whitebread bourgeoisie lifestyle on the player. What if I don't want to live in the 'burbs, huh? What if I'm a big City Mouse, huh? HUH?!!!

They should have some squares that deal with intolerance, too. Like "Interracial Marriage: family disowns you, lose your inheritance. -$10,000"

Oh great just one more thing that gives us a bad reb

As a Christian, this gets me angry. it's a darn game people, it's not Satan's instrument of destruction.

I am with ya brother!

I think homophobes are just in need of a big hug, from a burly moustached man in leather.

/stereotype off

Honestly, if they'd changed the game to fit modern standards, then maybe they'd have a (misguided) complaint, but I think it's more down to the fact that it has gone from pink pegs to actual pictures of people.

In the same way that the Atari game where you had two cowboys shooting each other with a cactus in the middle, didn't inspire 'video game increases gun violence among kids' headlines but GTA does.

Also it's people being guided by the constant 'games are bad' idea that the media push, I think, because they're threatened by us, I imagine most people now spend more time playing videogames in a week than they do watching Fox News, even if its just minesweeper or solitaire at the office, or online bingo or scrabble.

I think I have to agree with the mother, you don't want to get kids all confused with gay marriage

You're kidding, right? And what do you mean, "confused"? Do think kids are gonna start having second thoughts about their own sexuality because a game says that there are more "options"?

That's exactly what they need, I do not mind gay people, because it does not affect me to be around them. I believe most homophobes refuse to associate themselves with gay people because they know that if they go to a bar with a gay guy...

 

[The Nihil]

I say: "To hell with banning gay marriages in games, ban this woman's pussy until she can prioritise issues concerning the raising of he effing kid." Jeez.

Also, "homosexual agenda"? She makes it sound as if they're conspiring to overthrow straighties behind our backs... probably not the best choice of wording...

It's times like this I'm seriously considering going Buddhist.

Umm you are aware that homosexuality is taboo in Buddhism too? By Buddhism I mean actual Buddhism, not hippie-believe-what-you-want Buddhism. They just aren't as vocal about it.

 

[Tyler_Durden]

seriously

to the church and all other people who keep complaining

get you head out of your ass

this isnt fucking relevant anymore

videogames wont turn your children gay

nor will it make them a spawn of the devil.

just stop, think and shut up

That's what I'm talking about.

They don't go around shouting "THIS IS EVIL!! HOMOSEXUALITY!! SAAATAAN!!" just because their children are more intelligent than they are.

We need another crusade, then hopefully all these morons would get wiped out. Damn christians are so annoying.

Don't generalize. Atheists have idiots, too.

"You know how kids are," said the unnamed mother. "My daughter noticed right away (even before I did) and clicked on one of the girls instead of one of the men and then asked, 'Mom, how come I can marry a woman?' And then that led into a lot more questions that, quite frankly, I was not ready to talk to my 6-year-old about."

Whats so complicated to say "Cause you can sweetie, now play!".

To be fair, mental Christians are annoying and stupid, and mental Muslims blow themselves up.

The majority don't really cause any harm, except for not speaking out against the mental ones. I feel if they all made it clear they don't support the nutters the nutters might get the message that they're not doing it 'for us'.

I personally don't care if there's a gay couple next door, so long as they're not banging each other so loudly that they keep me awake at night, same goes for straight or lesbian couples. Or in fact single people who wake up at 6am on Sunday to pray loudly. Personally I'd rather listen to the lesbians.

OK, the thing that really had me going "I had no idea how insidious they were being with pushing the homosexual agenda". WTF is the "homosexual agenda"? The only thing I can think of is that she must think gays are like some kind of underground orginazation run by satan that wants to make everyone gay. Homophobia meets conspiracy theroy.

And that quote, using the word "insidious", like the're being really sneaky about it some how. like it's all a big cover up, the're gonna trick you into becoming gay.

I can just imagine this woman in latter years if her daughter dose grow up gay, devoting her life jack tompson style aganst the "tyranny of the homosexual agenda".

"Mommy, should I use a chainsaw on my sister like the mister on our TV?"

Actually I just read an artice in a news magazine that a woman got hurt during sex with her husband, because they decided to make things interesting and use a motor-saw (i assume it's the back and forth type and not the chain type) they strapped a sex toy to it, but it sawed through it :S


back to the topic

Seeing how some people are really afreid of homosexuality, I wonder if I could get laid by telling a very anti-homosexual girl that if i didn't get laid soon I would turn gay.

 

[CyberKnight]

So, the game lets you make whatever choice you want? What a concept!

Why do I get the feeling her review wasn't quite as "respectful" as she'd have us believe (especially with how quickly she goes from "respectful review" to "insidious agenda")?

What's really sad, though, is how quickly this thread devolved into anti-religion. Not all people of faith are illogical, anti-choice, and looking to ram our beliefs down everyone else's throats. I'd appreciate not lumping us all into the same handbasket.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH ahahah AHAHAHAH ahahah AHAHAHA oh lord.

Die in a fire, woman.

Here's the thing. It isn't even as complicated as giving people a 'choice'. They're just little plastic pieces. You could fit anything in there. I could replace the pink piece with a Gi Joe. GI JOE PUSHES THE GAY AGENDA!

YOUR OVERFUCKING THINKING IT! They're just little PEGS! They could be ANY color!
