Im a Christian and I love Final Fantasy 7. Best game ever!!

The Christian first person shooters are worse than doom IMO. In the christian ones the enemies are Romans who are all human and its all based on real life events. In doom the enemies are monsters that arent actually real and gamers (well most of them) know its all make believe and just a bit of fun.

These hard core christian fanatics are idiots and give normal christians like me a bad name. Damn them all to heaven.

You could get a cool game out of Jonah and the Whale - the Whale eats you and you have to go around fighting bosses and making your way out, a level for each bodily part of the whale you must escape from.

Sure christians would condemn it though.

Spyro also breathed fire and could innocently massacre sheep.

It makes me feel sick, it really does *angrily shakes fist*

Well, there must be a good side. Jesus can walk on water... although the swimming levels would be pointless. Turning water into wine could be interesting (drunk mode) except for the don't-get-drunk part of the bible.

Hey, if Jesus walked on a lake, could he turn it all into wine?

Spyro The Dragon spent half his time doing that...

And what an awesome game that was.

As a Christian myself I respect what they're trying to do, and hope that they're successful.

But in my household, we all play Doom III. And we all love it.

What are they gonna do? A platformer where you don't have enemies, just friends, who you touch and heal and jump around in colourful worlds healing and making friends? Who wants that?
