Global Orgasm
Awesome idea, terrible, terrible execution.
It's a huge anti-war thing. Something about we all have an orgasm while thinking about peace. While I'm a fan of both weird worldwide celebrations - International Talk Like A Pirate Day is pretty cool - and of orgasms - sex is great - this one has the foundations of a neat idea, but making it about anti-war-ness kind of ruins it, since it divides the pro-orgasm pro-peace people from the pro-orgasm pro-war people. The anti-orgasm people don't really matter.
They do have a great slogan, though: "We Came in Peace"

Expensive promises I made
If you thought WoW was addictive:

The first download is a PC knockoff of Geometry Wars, the hit downloadable game for the XBox 360. Or so I understand.
Holy crap.

Kansas education board downplays evolution - Science - MSNBC.com
So the Kansas Board of Education is now allowing creationism to be taught in schools. Sort of. The thing that makes this hilarious?
"In addition, the board rewrote the definition of science, so that it is no longer limited to the search for natural explanations of phenomena."
Every time I blink, I expect that line to disappear, because there's *no* way an actual academic institution could really say that.
Then I open my eyes, and it's still there.

Winning Souls to Christ in The World of Warcraft
Winning Souls to Christ in The World of Warcraft
Wow. I attended a Baptist church for a year and a half. People said they were judgemental, but I never really saw it. This article is... wow. Some excerpts:
So much for WoW applying to the mainstream populace as no game ever has before. So much for giving people a chance to express themselves, not bound by stereotypes. So much for Christians being accepting and loving. Why would I ever think such a bizarre thought?
Good to know that you're winning people over to Jesus by pestering them until they'll do anything to get you to go away. Sounds like you've really won their heart, there.
Because when you pledge your soul, your heart, your unwavering faith based on a duel in WoW, you always keep that pledge.
Yes! Smiting the heathens! Just like the good old days!
I really just can't come up with a smartass respone to this one. It's that bad.
So... your hearthstone is still set to your race's starting area? Good job.
Wow. I attended a Baptist church for a year and a half. People said they were judgemental, but I never really saw it. This article is... wow. Some excerpts:
| ""I think the reason so many people are open to hearing about Jesus in the World of Warcraft is because the majority of people who play the game are lonely kids who don't have any friends. I doubt any of them play sports so you can pretty much guess that there are lots of gay boys and fat little pale-faced Wiccan girls on the servers who hate themselves and escape into virtual characters so they don't have to deal with their pathetic lives. When they hear that someone loves them, even if it is just the Lord Jesus Christ, they always want to hear more!" |
So much for WoW applying to the mainstream populace as no game ever has before. So much for giving people a chance to express themselves, not bound by stereotypes. So much for Christians being accepting and loving. Why would I ever think such a bizarre thought?
| "Most people who are mean, liberal, nasty, lonely, unsaved losers in real life choose to play the Horde (an evil race of characters in the World of Warcraft) and people and guilds who are conservative, Republican and pretty much easier to win to Jesus Christ with are found in the Alliance. That's why the real True Christians™ pick the Horde to play as characters and start their guilds in Horde territory because they like the challenge of sharing Christ's message in a perilous, lava-soaked, environment. Sometimes you have to pester people for weeks before they listen to you. I followed some stupid gnome around for 8-hours until he finally told me that he would accept Jesus as his Personal Savior if I would just promise not to contact him anymore. Now that rocks!" |
Good to know that you're winning people over to Jesus by pestering them until they'll do anything to get you to go away. Sounds like you've really won their heart, there.
| "He has a strict policy against letting unsaved people join our group. I think he's from Alabama in real life. In fact, he won't even party-up with anyone who isn't a Christian. He's a level 60 Priest, and gets a lot of respect. He can climb right up to the top of the dwarf statue by the gates of Stormwind City and start street preaching to the Dark Elves and they will listen to everything he says. He's done conversion duels on multiple servers where he challenges other players to duel with him. If he wins, they accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. If he loses (which he never has) he will give them 6 pieces of silver." |
Because when you pledge your soul, your heart, your unwavering faith based on a duel in WoW, you always keep that pledge.
| Christian gamers are also excited that they are able to live out their faith in the same way the early True Christians™ did, before their religion was sissified by liberalism, science, and political correctness. "It is such a rush to kill other players who refuse to accept Jesus Christ as Lord," says one gamer. "I feel like I can really practice my faith the way God intended it. It is like I'm fighting alongside Christians of old, instead of the pansies and sissies from my Sunday school class." |
Yes! Smiting the heathens! Just like the good old days!
| I follow them around the game, across snow-capped mountains, and blasted wastelands until they accept Christ or persecute me so much that I have to report them to the server administrators for making fun of my religion. I think I've been responsible for getting over thirty accounts suspended for bigotry directed at me because of my faith." |
I really just can't come up with a smartass respone to this one. It's that bad.
| "I told Pastor Deacon Fred that every single time I find an item that looks like it has something to do with the occult, I hop on a griffin and head straight to Ironforge where I auction it off. Christian gamers shouldn't be carrying that stuff around. We don't enter places that serve alcohol in the game either." |
So... your hearthstone is still set to your race's starting area? Good job.

Wow. I may be an emotionally unstable wreck who's unsure of his place in the world, unable to trust himself or accept the love of others...
but this is FUCKING COOL.
