Religious Violence, Courtesy of the Religious Right.
Click here to take action.
Take action now and urge Wal-Mart to stop selling religious violence this holiday season.
Most disturbing is the game's apparent attempt at** religious indoctrination** - aimed at children and focused on violent, divisive, and hateful scenarios.
Click here and urge Wal-Mart CEO Lee Scott to stop selling our kids religious violence.

[WA: This video is not so far fetched. History abounds with records of terrible religious cruelty and wars based on "in the Name of God" and the gentle Jesus.]

I agree that this game is sends a terrible hypocritical message. But so many other games do as well. Actually, so many products do. TV advertising is just as bad. They depict values thrust upon us that are unobtainable and unrealistic.
WalMart sucks. So many corporations suck because they answer to stock holders that want more and more money.
I say, don't shop there, or any place else that promotes hate. Don't buy the products of hate. Be informed. Do without or change your own habits.
As I sit here and type on my computer, a modern electronic communications device, I am against some forms of technology. Video games is one of them. I'm trying to break the TV habit. I try not to eat packaged food, buy recycled clothing and items and other changes that will be inconvenient to me. But in the end, I may not stop Walmart, but I rest knowing I did my part.
Boycot the game, boycot the stores, boycot hatred.

Amen! Again,
I get SO cross about the way children are used, manipulated, brainwashed it tears me up!
Every Anarchist I have ever worked with will agree with me ONE rule:
"Don't twist the kids"
With ALL it's rules this society can't even figure that one out!

MD: It seems that one of the chief rules of the Rabid fundies IS twist the kids - they start brainwashing them in preschool through graduation, either in their own schools or home schooling, and in summer camps Then on to fundie, RR colleges. They program the children to be the next generation of politicians and leaders in their patient quest to achieve power.Hitler's youth programs and the Russkies' copycats don't have a thing on the RR.
