I'm sorry, I thought everyone knew the expression about treating the symptoms versus treating the disease.

:noidea:

What kind of society are we when a company has reason enough to believe it will make money off a game like this?

Would you want your friend playing this is your brother or sister or niece or nephew or whatever was in Afghanistan?

I am rather surprised that no one is expressing a feeling of unpleasantness about this.

:noidea:

If it is displeasure with the game that you are looking for, then I can give plenty. It is sad when a company is able to sell garbage like this, let alone stuff that induces sin. The world eats this stuff up while those who belong to Christ can see where it leads. We are what we feed ourselves.

All right, someone is finally making somewhat of a mention of the disease.

Guess it's a start.

Me too.....

I guess the disease is...

Games don't make messed up kids; that would be messed up parents.

I'm wondering how much experience you have in multi-player gaming in order to judge "a game like this?"

I guarantee, if this game is as kool as it looks, those brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews in Afghanistan will be playing this game in Afghanistan.

Plus...you never answered the question about cops and robbers; or any other games where one side inevitably had to be the "bad guy." That is pretty much all this is about.

When you played cops and robbers, did that include killing the cops (or the robbers for that matter)?

Uhhhhh...yeah! Just like when I played cowboys and indians I pretended to shoot the cowboy. You seriously don't know this? Of course we didn't have cool nerf guns, super soakers, or lazer tag when I played...we used guns made out of fingers and provided our own sound effects.
