Who ever lives we could just shoot and stop all this bull shit right now and go on with being human.
Somehow I am reminded of Mad magazines Spy vs Spy | Well, since we can't do that, how about a video game? With levels all the way from heaven to hell...I think it would make for a truly "righteous" first person shooter.  |

Yeah, you could start out as a lowly Backslider, Infidel, Gentile, Heathen, JuJu Man, Shaman...take your pick. How about starting out as the Pope, armed with a sword and an excorcism gun, and have to hack you way through countless throngs of athiests and other non-believers, including Demon-possesed fanatics on you way to Hell, where you need to duct-tape Satan's mouth. Maybe you would even find and use the "BFEG" on the way...Big Fuc*%#ing Excommunication Gun.... |

I'm not a big video game fan, but I'd just *have* to pick up a copy of that. Are you pitching this to one of the big video game makers?

But imagine how much fun it would be, starting out as a sinful BackSlider, and working your way up to becoming the head of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Or, if you choose Catholic, eating a holy cracker and getting a Fanatic Boost, which allows you to send non-believers straight to hell by the droves....
The possibilities are endless.

Then, if you choose Protestant, your task for advancement might be to catch the Catholic in the the act! |
