Wow! According to ABC News, some groups are producing some Bible-theme video games. Gamers can part the Red Sea, fight Goliath, and even convert those pesky pagan Roman soldiers.
Dude! This totally awesome blog is but a jot and a tittle of the BibleDudes website!!!

This statement is posted from an employee of Left Behind Games on behalf of Troy Lyndon, our Chief Executive Officer.
There has been in incredible amount of MISINFORMATION published in the media and in online blogs here and elsewhere.
Pacifist Christians and other groups are taking the game material out of context to support their own causes. There is NO “killing in the name of God” and NO “convert or die”. There are NO “negative portrayals of Muslims” and there are NO “points for killing”.
Please play the game demo for yourself (to at least level 5 of 40) to get an accurate perspective, or listen to what CREDIBLE unbiased experts are saying after reviewing the game at http://www.leftbehindgames.com/pages/controversy.com
Then, we’d love to hear your feedback as an informed player.
The reality is that we’re receiving reports everyday of how this game is positively affecting lives by all who play it.
Thank you for taking the time to be a responsible blogger.

I have played the demo - and that even makes it scarier. Forget the fact that it is bloodless. There are bodies piled up of people killed by the so-called “Christians” who carry high tech weapons and use them to kill who they think are the forces of the antiChrist.
It is frightening to see that the Left Behind Games people are willing to support killing (uh hem - “defending”) in the name of Christ. This is the equivalent of Islamofascists calling for the death of the infidels who they perceive are attacking their way of life.
Left Behind is calling for a Christian jihad - and it is the same thinking that led to the crusades and inquisition where thousands lost their lives because of what they thought.
Fundamentalists are showing their hand - willing to use violence in the name of Christ. They spit out the term “Christian Pacifist” as if it’s evil.
Jesus was the ultimate “Christian Pacifist” - He laid down His life. It’s time to wake up and see that these so-called “Christians” are taking America in a very scary direction.
