Yesterday, we took note of Tim LaHaye's outrageous video game version of "Left Behind," in which players gun down opponents who do not convert to Christianity.
The mentally sick promoters of this barbarity defend the game as "pacifistic." They note that the deaths are, by modern gaming standards, not particularly gruesome; corpses fade away instead of writhing in gore. Newsflash, jerks: The very idea of a "convert or die" game repulses civilized people. The issue has nothing to do with splattering blood or its tasteful avoidance.
Hillary Clinton has crusaded against video game carnage. Will she have the courage to tell WalMart and other retailers that they should leave out "Left Behind"? I doubt it. I've never really liked her -- although my opinion may improve if she shows some respect for principle in this case.
Back in the early 1970s, Tim LaHaye promoted the popular myth that a secret society called the Illuminati controls the world. He thus "mainstreamed" a fantasy previously circulated only by such racists as Myron C. Fagan and Gerald Winrod, whose literature must have been known to LaHaye. He also has a history of wallowing in the worst forms of anti-Catholic bigotry.
Tim LaHaye is pure evil. Religion is his racket. His faith is as fake as his hair color.

hm. though she has spoken out against video game violence, she also just hired a dem strategist on winning evangelical votes, burns strider.
go figure....
would be foolhardy for anyone on the "left"(behind---- clever use with the memes eh?) to go after them on this. they do eat their own -so let them fight it out amongst themselves, similarly to how they turned on bush over the border issue.
the damage will be longer lasting.
as they say- divide and conquer......
but opposition unites.
at best- someone should throw a little fuel on the fire.
