Bible fight!!!
I saw this on a Christian blog, and to my surprise, they thought this was actually a good idea.
What is this?
It's Bible Fight!
You have your choice of characters to fight against the computer. You can be Jesus, Eve, Mary, Moses, Noah, and Satan. And if you win a few tourneys, you can even be God. Oooooooh.
Yes that's right, you can play as Jesus and kick the fucking shit out of Moses.
So I showed the teens the game and of course, they decided to play as Satan and kick the crap out of all the goody bible characters, but here's the funny.
You can play as a good bible character, and kick the crap out of another good bible character.
I played it. I chose to play as Jesus, and the computer picked Eve.
Uh, does anyone else just think this is so totally wrong?
I know how that just sounded, an atheist said a video game where Jesus or any other good character, can kick the fucking shit out of another good bible character, is wrong.
Maybe it's because I have actually read the bible, and even though it says an eye for an eye, in Matthew, Chapter 5, Jesus says:
38 You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’
39 But I say to you, Do not resist one who is evil. But if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also;
40 and if any one would sue you and take your coat, let him have your cloak as well;
41 and if any one forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
42 Give to him who begs from you, and do not refuse him who would borrow from you.
So basically, don't fight. Let there be love.
I admit as an atheist, it totally cracks me up, but why oh why, would a Christian blogger think that game is a good thing?
Is it because it would be played by kids and introduce them to the characters from the bible? Or maybe it's a way to get already Christian kids who play video games, interested in the bible more?
Who knows.
But I found it slightly blasphemous, and I don't even believe in the bible as the word of God! *laughs*
Wow.
I think I just find it crazy that a Christian blogger would think that game is ok.
But as for this house, it totally cracked us up.

It was mildly amusing. I'd like to see one with perhaps with a broader spectrum of characters though.. Maybe include Allah

I'm a Christian, and I'm nearly speechless. This is a new high in lows, thanks for posting this.

What's next? A Nativity story where Joseph and Mary leave baby Jesus stranded in the manger because they weren't ready to be parents? People are crazy.

There is a game more raw and extreme slated for the XBox 360 that may include Allah and other gods made by Classified Productions. Look it up: Battle of the Gods.
