  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I just think it's sick and hope it never finds it's way to Canada..better yet, I hope it gets pulled off all shelves.
How do you know it isn't already in Canada it's not like the people that do anime imports advertise real well and it's not like people who are into any sort of Hentia are going to talk about openly.

Freedom of speech.

While I don't agree with the material, I agree with their right to say it and sell it. As long as they're not physically breaking the law, we don't want the government putting their nose in the business of what we as individuals should see and hear.

...or has anyone forgot what Hal Lindsay almost did to the music industry when he was given way too much authority to censor from Ronald's administration in the 80's?

It is not good to go to one extreme or the other.

Somethings should be censored.

I think it sounds sick sick sick...Just disturbing.

Yes, there are shows on TV that depict rape. But they also are "catching the bad guys" who raped..NOT encouraging it.

Yes, a lot of people will rape whether they play the game or not. But some who never would have thought themselves capable will play the game and think "hey I'm good at this on the game, why not in real life."
Or, they will become more violent.

Everyone's heard of kids "acting out" their games and TV shows....why would this be any different?

I just think it's sick and hope it never finds it's way to Canada..better yet, I hope it gets pulled off all shelves.

No. They won't. First, this is an adult video game - children should not play it at all.

See my Grand Theft Auto reference.

"Games are largely about getting people to see past the variations and look instead at the underlying patterns. Because of this, gamers are very good at seeing past fiction. This is why gamers are dismissive of the ethical implications of games -- they don't see 'get a [sexual favor] from a hooker, then run her over.' They see a power-up." -- Raph Koster, (A Theory of Fun)
Contrary to Jack Thompson's rants, video games don't train us to behave as the fictional characters. Gamers can see through the fiction to the underlying mechanics. I could create a game using the same patterns of Custer's Revenge without including any sex at all.

I've also already explained that this sort of game isn't profitable and will cause losses for the company. The video-game industry is a self-censoring system that doesn't need government intervention. If a game is considered obscene, then retailers will refuse to carry it. If the retailers don't carry it, the chances of breaking-even are slim to none. The game has to be placed on the shelves to be taken off... Do you seriously think this game will ever be placed on shelves?

Here's another book recommendation.

Because Amazon doesn't have shelves, so it's possible for someone who doesn't like RapeLay (what is that name anyway, some stupid pun on "re-play"?) doesn't have to see RapeLay while browsing for some other, non-RapeLay related product.

Unless you search for something like How To Raise A Hyperactive Child and "RapeLay" pops up in the
Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought
section.

Which it hopefully won't.

EDIT: Ah, public outcry, sometimes you're actually not abhorrent.

Sounds to me like they do more expressing than suppressing.

It is more of an issue of sexual repression. When sexuality is repressed it can come out in other ways. If sexuality isn't treated like something that's forbidden then people would have a healthy view towards sex.

I mean, look at our society in America. The reason sex seems to be everywhere nowadays is because "soft core" porn seems to have become more mainstream. At least that's how it seems to me.

Because Amazon doesn't have shelves, so it's possible for someone who doesn't like RapeLay (what is that name anyway, some stupid pun on "re-play"?) doesn't have to see RapeLay while browsing for some other, non-RapeLay related product.

Yeah I know. I thought it meant something like "rape play."

The game is a problem because it probably targets a specific group. Women. Although, I don't know if men are raped in this game as well. Now, if human history didn't consist of domination and violence torwards women; If society wasn't filled to the brim with sexist filth, than it probably wouldn't be much of an issue. There would be no need to be senstitive at all. Of course, all we have is reality.

Either way, I'm sure the video game that targets Christians upsets some Christians. And I don't doubt there will be a game that specifically sets out to slay white males at the hands of minorities. Maybe these groups will embrace these games.

They even have a game where you win by cutting off more heads than anyone else.
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/116
Another where you the objective is to kill and eat humans.
http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?id=61819
the billions out there where you just kill and kill
halo, counter strike .....
some where you are rewarded for stealing from others with no concern for the law.
Zelda.. RPG games...

And yet for some reason im not going around beating my head into walls, lighting things on fire, stealing coins, eating magic mushrooms. Heck I have not even once today thrown a sonic boom or uppercutted a single person..


Hey, leave RPGs out of this. It is a well known rule that in alternate universes the only people who don't want to freely give up a few potions to the heros (are soon to be) are the evil villains.

I dont think you will ever have to worry about these games being in toyrus or walmart or best buy. However there are shelves you will find these games. Just your basic sex / porn shops.
I dont see you ever having to worry about kids getting the games and going out and raping someone.

I think at best people woudl get this game as a sort of role playing gratification.

Yep just yesterday I broke into a house broke all the pots and I was frustrated when I found no blue, green or red gems.

I then had to go to a hospital after suffering from a concussion by hitting my head into bricks. And once again no coins.

I also got arrested for sneaking up on police for doing a dragon upper cut to a sumo wrestler.

I ran away from them but they managed to find me despite me hiding in a cardboard box. I dont know how they knew i was there there was no search music and I saw no ! marks.

They also added to my rap sheet assault for stepping on my neighbors pet turtles and blow torching their fish. They even added drug possession due to my possession of mushrooms. They weren't magic I NEVER grew in size or became invincible as my concussion attests to.

Is this video change we can believe in?

How did society get to this point?

There is a root cause.

How did society get to the point of chubby guys running around in costumes having fun? I dont' know, but it is surly the sign of the END TIMES!!!!

Videos palyed by kids about rape and murder are surely a sign of some kind of times. Times brought to us by certain kinds of people.

And not those that promote "traditional family values."

Care a guess at which kind BW?

I thought you meant the Mario video.

It's a Japanese game, take it up with them. They have their own culture and values.
