Yes I suppose that you could use a liberal interpretation of the bible for commiting terrorism in the name of christianity, the problem with that is that there haven't been REPEATED acts attempted/completed terrorism in the name of christianity (1).  But I def agree with the possibility. 

 

As far as your comments on politics and meddling, get over it.  The international scene has nations attempting to influence each other, and we don't become nazi-republicans bent on killing everybody because we see the muslims lobbying our politicians.  The problem is that the muslims just don't like us, and so they enjoy bombing white people (2).

 

(1) Northern Ireland?

(2) If you believe that this is the case, then I feel sorry for you.

Uh, the irish and england people fighting of N Ireland are most likely both Christian.  Try again izaaz

 

It's not "Irish and England people" fighting, it's Catholics and Protestants, killing each other for hundreds of years over a minute difference in their approach to the same religion. With the use of bombs, many radicals kill others in the name of their respective religions, which both fall under Christianity. Therefore, I'd say that many terrorist acts were "successfully" completed in the name of Christianity.

The only thing apparant is a Irish/English conflict.  If it was a Catholic vs protestant conflict, then we would have catholics and protestants coming in from outside areas to join in.

I don't see the point of continuously provoking Muslims with stupid games, caricatures, etc., it's all starting to get kind of annoying.

The people that commit acts of terrorism in the name of Islam will laugh at this and not give a shit. The only people this pisses off are the normal, decent, hard-working ones.

Sad.

I could use a liberal interpretation of the bible to justify all kinds of acts of brutality, but that's no justification for promoting a genocide on Christianity.

You explain that the real problem is rampant fundamentalism, a problem which is hardly isolated to Muslim nations. If you really believe that, then you must condemn this game. You should also condemn other acts which promote fundamentalism, including certain kinds of meddling in the affairs of other nations. It wasn't all that long ago when Afghanistan and Iraq were secular and prosperous, before they got wrapped up in Cold War proxy conflicts.

"Get over it?" That's your clever answer to these problems?

Sorry, but I believe it's generally best to learn from past mistakes, not just shrug my shoulders and wonder why the boomerang I throw keeps hitting me in the back of the head.

Shrugging and saying "they just don't like us" is not going to solve the problem. You have to figure out why they don't like you, and stop doing that. Punching somebody in the nose then telling them to get over it isn't going to solve your problems.

I am not going to shut up like this!

Every religion is about peace but when it comes too protecting it… it’s the same fucking thing when it comes too ones country or someone you love. Would anyone just stand there wile it is being destroyed? The one who dose that is coward!!

The reason there would be a suicidal attack is because the people attacking don’t have the same level of weaponry as the stronger force.

Let’s see the US of A invades Iraq. The US of A has weapons far more advanced then the Iraqis. Me as an Iraqi wants to protect my country but I have nothing strong enough that I can send against the terrorist (yes here the US is the terrorist). The funny thing is that people call the protectors of there own country the terrorist. FUCKING SHIT!

Let’s say there where no religions you would still want too protect your country at any cost! I am not saying it is right but when you don’t have any other way people seem to protect others by sacrificing them selves.

Nations meddle in each others affairs all the time.  That is what international politics is all about, and if you can't get over this, you'll be an angry muslim.  You said that you were muslim earlier anyway.

Ugh.

Reminds me of when that Columbine game was released. It's unfortunate too see this garbage in our day and age.

Tasteless and Offensive no matter how you spin it.

Aren't there like... hundreds of these games out there?

At least tens...

What... racist against one group or another... I mean, first one i heard about was a neo-nazi mod of Wolfenstein 3-D.

I like threads like this.

It's hard to be asshole enough to warrant a ban while discussing something as "trivial" as videogames, but serious topics such as this never fail at giving idiots a chance to prove how they shouldn't be allowed on forums as decent as the one we have here. Longer bans would really be nice, though.

I think it's more... the Irish vs the English then Catholic V Protestant.
