Christian Group Preps To Attack Wii

[wraggster]

via kotaku (http://kotaku.com/gaming/wii/christian-group-preps-to-attack-wii-239994.php)

A tipster sends word that The Porn Talk, a site backed by a secretive faith-based ministry in California, is prepping to attack Nintendo's Wii and other gaming devices, calling them "portals to porno" in a press release.

In the press release, leaked to Kotaku today, The Porn Talk founder Mike Foster does his best to stoke up some fear about the Wii saying that even though the device has parental controls, "parents don't see a need for them because they are unaware of the porn capabilities."

With a headline that reads "The Wii's Dirty Little Secret," the story's caustic tone is more off-putting than what little facts are presented. The full press release is on the jump.

I find it funny that a site that seems to go to so much effort to hide its ties to religion and ministry work is using the phrase dirty little secret.

Oh COME ON!!! Attacking the Wii cause you can use the Internet Channel to view porn is not fair!!!!
You can view porn on just about ANY gamming system and I don't see this so-called christian group attacking the PSP on DS. As I've said many times before it come do to the parents to keep a watchful eye of thire children! Attack this you fools!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ICE]

isnt there a parental lock on the wii? isnt the internet channel optional? people are so dumb..

[mastersho]

Yeah I forgot all about the lock! Man they suck!

[voltorben]

Goddamn i hate those christians! Always making a fuss about ****ing nothing... A girl from my class is just like those ****ers. man, some peaple just blow!

[philr359]

Typical Scapegoat BS.

[SSaxdude]

Ok for the sake of owning them, I'll assume that the Wii is a perverted machine used to watch porn. On the other hand, religion causes violence. In their delusion minds they would probably outweigh porn over the violence they create.

[Shilo]

Why are they so focused on the Wii? The only thing the Wii is doing for porn is access the internet. So, if there so worried about it, why not attack at the source? People can be so retarded.

[ExcruciationX]

See, this is why I dislike religion.

These imbeciles think they can run the world, and they can't.

I can't wait until they are proven incorrect and are forced to eat their own crow.

dont use one group of people as a reason to flame all christians!!! i am a christian and im not saying stuff like this! say you dislike that group NOT christians as a whole because of what THEY said!

[jdcxxx]

that is dumb. most people have a computer and you could look up porn on that what makes the wii looking at porn on the wii different from looking up porn on the computer

[gunntims0103]

yea the Wii was made specificly to view porn. Give me a break! :rolleyes:

[curt_grymala]

Damn. I was kind of hoping this would be a topic about a Christian group drop-kicking a Wii or something.

Yeah really, this is just a bunch of extremist assholes. You can't target all christians because of this or say religion is bad because some people go overboard.

Well, I meant the stupid group.
Didn't mean to offend anyone here... :o

Anyone, anywhere, anytime SHOULD be able to believe ANYTHING they want (Basically I don't give a damn what you believe in). My mom's a Christian F.Y.I (A very closed minded one at that).

An interesting story...

At my online Christian school (ironic ain't it), they have this chatroom. The occupants where discussing other religions, and how dumb their ideas were, and yada yada.

So, I got into the discussion, trying to show them that other religions aren't bad. They instantly jump on me, saying I'm stupid and whatever. Then I say "I thought Christianity was about love and kindness towards others, yet this doesn't seem to apply to you?", and I instantly get suspended from the chat room for 10 days. Since then, I haven't been back, since I do not feel like sinking down to their level.

there are a lot of "christians" out there that send out a bad message to the public. honestly anyone reacting the way you described is not a real christian. my mother is also a very close minded person and i advise you not to try and change her mind on the matter. i simply think you should hear what she has to say and take it into consideration as you make your own decisions as i did. just so you guys know i would render a guess that 70% of "christians" aren't. for instance if your a catholic your not a christian. im sorry if you thought other wise. technically the pope is an antichrist by definition.(anyone claiming to be god/christ is an antichrist) i will leave you with a few quotes by some popes: :D

"We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God."- Pope Innocent III (1198-1216)

"I am in all and above all, so that God Himself and I, the vicar of God, hath both one consistory, and I am able to do almost all that God can do…wherefore, if those things that I do be said not to be done of man, but of God, what do you make of me but God? Again, if prelates of the Church be called of Constantine for gods, I then being above all prelates, seem by this reason to be above all gods. Wherefore, no marvel, if it be in my power to dispense with all things, yea with the precepts of Christ."- Pope Nicholas

"It is quite certain that Popes have never disapproved or rejected this title "Lord God the Pope" for the passage in the gloss referred to appears in the edition of the Canon Law published in Rome by Gregory XIII."- Father A. Pereira

I agree with you Im christian too. The people has its own ideas and feelings, that arent ours...

[ExcruciationX]

Yeah, I was going to ask if a Catholic is the same as a Christian.

Thank's ICEMAN. Do you have your amp fixed yet? ;)

[gotmilk0112]

what the f**k. first calling PSP a "porn portal" now calling wii a "porn portal"?? what are they gonna do next? call cell phones with internet browsers "porno phones?" :mad:

christians. just anohter reason why im not one :D

[Triv1um]

well a pc is a 'porn portal' too.

people don't moan about that.

[SSaxdude]

Hey guess what, the tv is a porno poral because it gets cable.

[Cloudhunter]

Actually, Catholic's are Christians... Just because a few popes in the past have thought they are higher than they are, doesn't mean that all popes think that.

I guess what they mean by their statements that whatever they say is equal to the word of god... Which I disagree with, but the point remains that not all popes think that.

And I'm SURE that hardly any Catholic's think the pope is god.

The only think I disagree with Catholics about is all this reveration for the virgin Mary... She wasn't special in herself, just because she had Christ as a baby. The fact that she was a lowly maid betrothed to a carpenter made the point that it doesn't have to be an important person to be chosen by God.

the main point of Christianity is to get saved from hell correct? as a catholic what single act gets you to heaven? baptism you say?!?! why thats simply a good work towards god!! thats strange since Ephesians 2:8-9 said "For by grace have you been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not of works that no man should glory” what by that logic catholics arent going to heaven you say!?!?! why that would make them NOT CHRISTIAN!!

plus them considering mary equal to or just below christ is blasphemy in itself! jesus himself called mary WOMEN!! she didnt seem to great to him did she!?!

what you also say catholics think they EAT AND DRINK THE PHYSICAL BODY OF CHRIST AT MASS(mass means death in latin) EVERY DAY!?!?! why thats down right cannibalistic!?!

this is something i feel very strongly about and i know what im talking about so if you have anything you want me to disprove STEP RIGHT UP!

^^^but dont flame philr359^^^

i wasnt, k thx

[ExcruciationX]

Now, I would think since God (if he's there) is so far ahead of us, that anybody that believes in him will get to "heaven".

essentially thats the idea. if you believe in the god that really exists (not the fake ones like Allah) your in. you dont need to do anything else. its that simple. heres the thing though. if you REALLY believe your gonna be a better person and do what he wants as much as possible if you REALLY believe.
