1. I can’t even muster the energy to roll my eyes. why do we Christians have to try sooooo damn hard? Bibles look like Seventeen magazine now, churches are run more like businesses and we are more judgmental of others than ever. What makes me sad is that someone went to a looooot of trouble for nothing.

2. If you were a devout Christian who had some programming skills, how else would you go about spreading the faith? If you were gifted artistically, you’d make great art works like paintings, buildings, music, or literary works, for example. Consider this the programming equivalent of a great cathedral. Or at least an attempt at one.

3. I stand chastised. Christians as a group are pretty fragmented about what’s “right” so I am not helping to promote cohesiveness. But - if I were a devout christian with mad programming skills, i’d make software for the blind or a program that helps sunday school teachers. Myself having wasted LOTS of time on videogames, I’m already prejudiced against letting kids use them to learn.

   By the way if you look at the Bibleman site…their “licensed products” include action figures and a sword. Sorry but what does dressing up like Bibleman have to do with spreading the faith? Again, trying too hard.

4. Annie: It wasn’t trouble for nothing. The game was featured on this website.

   Allen: It’s an good point. The problem for them is that Bibleman: A Fight for Faith looks like something created to sabotage Christianity.

   Annie 2: Something to do with putting on the armor of God. I dunno. It’s pretty dumb.
