		<description>I was just having a discussion today with my friend, about how the religious right doesn&#039;t have a culture of their own so they have to steal secular culture and just mix Jesus in with it.

Christianity has just become another brand name.</description>

		<description>O FSM ...

I don&#039;t find anything here quite as troubling as the assertion that there are &quot;top Christian bands!&quot;

&quot;You&#039;ll be rockin&#039; to the best while praising the Lord!&quot; Uh ... can anybody qualify &quot;the best&quot;? I mean, how many Christian bands actually make any hits at all?

Can you name one besides Jars Of Clay?

&quot;Over 50 Christian songs from your favourite artists.&quot;

Hang on--don&#039;t they know how many songs there are, exactly? Just curious.

My favourite artists include the Tragically Hip, Judas Priest, and The Doors. None of whom, to my knowledge, ever made a Christian hit. Although I suppose Priest probably comes close.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;In true third-rate Christian-product fashion, the game isn’t even something you are meant to play on a TV. It’s for your computer.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Oh yes, because PC gaming is a byproduct of third rate Christian creations. I guess I&#039;ll just throw away my video card and sell my copy of pc orange box. Curses, the things one must do to be an atheist!</description>

		<description>I agree that those games are lame...sad thing is, most middle school youth group kids will have them because their parents wanted to buy them something &quot;fun&quot; at the local Christian book store.

And Hemant, I feel your pain on the no furniture thing...right now I&#039;m sitting on a blanket in my &quot;family room&quot; and sleeping on an air mattress. :-) My battle is with field crickets, though, not dragonflies. ;-)</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t forget about christian real-time strategy fun with &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_Behind:_Eternal_Forces&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Left Behind: Eternal Forces&lt;/a&gt;.


I&#039;ve been hunting for a dirt-cheap copy of that one at used book shops and such for a while now, no luck as yet.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I am looking forward to the Christian version of World of Warcraft. There will be much lulz that day.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hmmm, it&#039;d probably be pretty crappy, given that they&#039;d spend six days making it and then not change anything ever.  No evolutionary patches for them!

Seriously though, there&#039;s a Christian guild on the server we play on.  So much for Elune and the Naaru...
