Christian Video Game!

Christian Video Game!
Dear friends

As a Christian I am generally wary of video games, especially RPGS/MMOS since there is a lot of anti-Christian messages to them!

Yet I have found one that is good for all Christians to play!: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/

The game is called "Diablo III" and in it, you play as a warrior with powers who fights evil demons and monsters!

It is a metaphor really, for what Christians are called to do in this life: be a "Warrior" and call on God's power to fight demons, in whatever form they may be.

True they aren't as apparent as they are IRL as they are in the game, but tehy exist, and IMO, this game reminds us of how vigilant we should really be!

Something to sing along with while playing.

Why? 
Why would anyone create a xtian video game?  (Unless they were coming up with something that would help brainwash children.)
Why would anyone choose a video game because it fit into their belief system?
The mind boggles.

And I can't figure out why I should even be giving enough of a shit to even respond to this post.

^ Ask the developers at Blizzard, or better yet, God. He works in mysterious ways after all.

It is a dangerous idea to raise people to be "warriors" fighting against an enemy they can't prove exists.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

It is a wonderful idea if that enemy is Satan? Want proof he exists? Look at the nightly news, the kinds of things that go on in Las Vegas and New Orleans, look at ISIS, and look at the awful stuff on the internet. That should be proof enough.

I am so glad though that Blizzard thought of making the diablo franchise.

I am going to ask Pastor Phillip to give a sermon on it.

God doesn't exist.  Satan doesn't exist.  So none of this makes any sense.

The "enemy" is not Satan. People kill other people, sometimes claiming those people are demon possessed or work for Satan, or whatever excuse they use to kill more people. That's why it's dangerous. Satan does not live in Las Vegas or New Orleans. ISIS is not Satan.
