@OurSin-360 I don't think anyone is really saying that this guy doesn't have the right to be offended.


People are just saying he's being hypocritical and unthinking. People have the right to be hypocritical and unthinking, but that doesn't make their actions suddenly consistent and intelligent.

@vitamin_f The vast majority of Christians would argue that entertainment etc is a matter of conscience and not sin. Obviously this guy either is just nutty or has the most oddly hypocritical sensitive conscience I've ever heard of.


That or he just found a clever way to get a game for free.

@rapboy_905 My issue is that if you want to interpret Bioshock Infinite as a hard-hitting critique etc of Christianity (as this guy apparently did), you need to ask questions like "Why is the God of the Bible not really mentioned much in the game?" "Why is baptism here not a Christian baptism" "Why is Jesus absent from the game" "why is almost all Christian theology/message etc absent from the game?" etc


I agree that the game can be seen as a sort of commentary on misguided religious fanaticism but that really shouldn't be a bothersome thing to a Christian.


This game is more a critique of cults than anything else IMO.

@shadgrindk the guy in this article =/= Christians


Not by a long shot. Also, if this post is anything to go by, you don't sound much better than those Westboro baptist folks.

@Disciple_Gamer this person should probably stay away from all fictional materials in general

@SythisTaru @Cybrggame @The_Beanster ohhhhhhhhh didn't realize he was thinking of the stupid sex scandal nonsense


Sorry cybrggame - thought you were talking about the ME3 ending.


Yeah the nonsense about having a homosexual character/option and a "sex scene" in ME1/2/3 was dumb.

@rapboy_905 In a way, I suppose it is. But the connections to Christianity are superficial at best.

@rogue81 I see how you can separate it: refuse to use that thing that sits between your ears and behind your eyes

@leviathanwing @FlameBoyBen yeah but that's not what is going on here... it's just one nut


It's not like all Christians are offended at the game and clamoring for it to be changed

@rapboy_905 this game doesn't even call Christian beliefs into question... I don't understand what people are getting all fussy about
