Now, with the blessing and endorsement of the Pentagon, a Christian ministry with apocalyptic fundamentalist beliefs that is planning a series of tours it calls a 'military crusade' to entertain US troops in Afghanistan and Iraq will also be distributing the "Left Behind: Eternal Forces" 'Convert or Die' religious warfare video game....To US troops.
What?

Let me repeat:

The United States Pentagon has endorsed sending a Christian supremacist religious warfare video game to United States troops in Iraq, a predominantly Muslim nation.

And I thought the name of the game was bad enough, srsly guyz wtf.

WOW.

That makes me truly angry.

 

[Asknoone]

Appalling.

While I agree with what you've all said, according to the wiki it isn't such a bad game overall. The premise is terrible the whole convert or die thing, but as a bog standard RTS it seems to be average. However I can not see them wanting to play this game or really games that are similar to the situation they are in now.

Plus do US troops have the time or the equipment to play PC games?

I believe a picture was posted not so long ago with a few dozen personnel in a room playing the Halo 3 beta on a LAN, for recreation.

Something like that sounds allot better than a game like this. But wasn't that a special event to promote Halo 3?

Wow I thought this thread title was relating to the Chronicles of Riddick (the Necromungers always said "Convert or die")

I can't believe that, that's horrible.

sweeeeeet, too bad the common population (well I'm trying to refer to the troops which they kinda aren't considering what they're doing but bear with the terminology) is likely to be fux'd by it while people like most of us would get a good laugh.

heh in the game Iraq is a center of evil ..players (marines) are suppossed to kill iraqis ...oh and the group that's ending these packages include "celebrities Stephen" Baldwin and Evander Holyfield ...worse of all the US Military approved of everything they sent to the soldiers which included:

that also include a pocket-size Gideon bible, a Christian extreme sports DVD and the proselytizing book More Than a Carpenter

ironically enough they're called "freedom packs" lol

funny how so many christian groups support killing iraqis ..it's what Jesus would do

 

[Asknoone]

What the ****. So ****ed up. But hey, that's the army!

 

[Mr. Djees]

Christian extreme sports? What the hell is that?

 

[Nabobalis]

Christian extreme sports? What the hell is that?

My guess is Christians doing extreme sports.

 

[Nemesis6]

Christian extreme sports? Cross-throwing, devil-churning(an off-shoot of butter-churning), and spear-jamming.

 

[PvtRyan]

a Christian extreme sports DVD

What am I supposed to think of that?

A 2 mile nigger dragging race?

I would of thought that SupCom would of been a better choice, but oh well

That website doesn't seem to list any sources, so I am calling BS, until I see some proof

 

[Bad^Hat]

Well, if anything, the title "Left Behind: Eternal Forces" is kind of relevant to the situation of the soldiers in Iraq. Lol.

[Atomic_Piggy]
