not just liberals!

A ridiculous starter question on a BBC Have Your Say discussion about some bizarre supposedly Christian video game where the post-"Tribulation" forces of good go out and fight unbelievers. The discussion question is: "Are liberal groups right to call for a boycott...?"

Nice that liberal groups care, but "liberal" is not the opposite of "weird". Plenty Christians right across the spectrum would be well within their rights to boycott this rubbish.

And here's a great comment on Have Your Say which makes exactly that point. Chris from Langley, BC will probably never read this, but it's the best of the comments so far.

As a Christian, I am deeply saddened that people would think that this game is in anyway a representation of Christianity or the message of Christ. Christ's call was to love one's enemies. I'm pretty sure loving your enemies means not killing them (someone might want to let Bush know this too...). This game is a horrible idea. It shouldn't just be Liberals protesting this game. Christians more than anyone need to reject the promotion of violence in the name of religion that this game offers.

Whatever the detractors of the game have a hatred for, it would be good if they realised that it does not, as its makers suggest, represent anything like "biblical Christianity."
