Asia's greenhouse gas output will apparently "treble in the next twenty five years" - shouldn't we be declaring war on them, simply to save the planet? Maybe the raving nutter Christians who created an "evangelical" computer game can use that for a plot idea for their next attempt to fuck with kids' minds...
However... someone could, with some justification, say that if I call that game "a Christian mind-fuck", then I must be admitting that games affect people's behaviour, in contrary to everything I've said before on the subject of the effects of media violence. To such a critic, I say this:- religion is, by its very nature, the most colossal mind-fuck in human history, so anyone drawn to this game, which is being sold by evangelical groups in churches, has already had their "soil" thoroughly "ploughed" and prepared for "sowing"...
And finally... Coming tomorrow: the season finale for The Darkhawk Diaries!
Oh, and I came up with this, too...
