Forums - Gaming Discussion - The Pope talks about violent videogames .... he doesn't like them

Yup, be careful religion is one of those things that can start flame warz all over teh Internet

“Any trend to produce programs and products – including animated films and video games – which in the name of entertainment exalt violence and portray anti-social behavior or the trivialization of human sexuality is a perversion, all the more repulsive when these programs are directed at children and adolescents.” - The Pope

Fail.



Why am I not suprised by this?



I am genuinely surprised that the Pope still thinks that majority of the world gives a shit what he thinks. First it was the condoms, now video games. What's next homophobic comments and attacks on Islam?



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

I wonder how many video games the Pope has played?

I dont like religion being directed at kids either. It has caused more violence and death than any form of media.

Fuck what the pope thinks.



I don't give a damn what that old fart has to say.
