Talk to Action – May 29, 2006:
Imagine: you are a foot soldier in a paramilitary group whose purpose is to remake America as a Christian theocracy, and establish its worldly vision of the dominion of Christ over all aspects of life. You are issued high-tech military weaponry, and instructed to engage the infidel on the streets of New York City. You are on a mission – both a religious mission and a military mission — to convert or kill Catholics, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, gays, and anyone who advocates the separation of church and state – especially moderate, mainstream Christians. Your mission is “to conduct physical and spiritual warfare”; all who resist must be taken out with extreme prejudice. You have never felt so powerful, so driven by a purpose: you are 13 years old. You are playing a real-time strategy video game whose creators are linked to the empire of mega-church pastor Rick Warren, best selling author of The Purpose Driven Life.
The game, slated for release by October 2006 in advance of the Christmas shopping rush, has been previewed at video game exhibitions, and reviewed by major newspapers and magazines. But until now, no fan or critic has pointed out the controversial game’s connection to Mr. Warren or his dominionist agenda.
Jesus Christ (if he ever existed) was clearly of Jewish Heritage, was a beacher of Jewish Culture, and DID NOT found Christianity. He was a heretic of the “culture of the day”, and paid the price as had so many others who believed in other than what Rome decreed. Of all his so-called followers clearly cited, he was a man of peace and never called-for the decimation of any peoples. Assholes, like the writer of this column, are true “assholes” and “antiChrists” if there ever were any.
