Console Brand Loyalty and Lifestyle Choices

RotoGo writes "A new survey done by GamerMetrics shows that 38% of gamers prefer the Playstation 3, making it the most anticipated system. The Wii only got 22% of the audience as their number one choice. Perhaps more interesting are the 'lifestyle' choices reported by the survey. Nirvana was cited as the favorite band for those loyal to the Xbox brand and Eminem was the top pick for the Playstation brand. The Nintendo camp prefers Gorillaz and Smallville for entertainment. The study also discovered that people that like the Xbox brand are the most likely to own an iPod and a TiVo while it is the Playstation gamers who are most likely to go outside to see a movie."

    I have to ask about your sig. Why do you think Jesus was a liberal?

    In todays society where people like to teach that Jesus loved everyone, and it's okay to do what you want because Jesus loves you, I could understand where you are coming from. But have you actually read the Bible?
    Jesus walked into the temples where the anti-christian people of the day congregated, namely the Pharisees and Sadducees and proceeded to call them names! He called them Hypocrits, Vipers, whited sepelchres... He wasn't teaching love everyone, he was teaching that He is the only way out of Hell, and the current philosophy of the Jews was wrong because the preists couldn't atone for anyone's sin, only faith and trust in Christ would save them. He was straight, to the point, in your face and told it like it was.
    And they crucified him for it.
    He certainly didn't believe in socialism or communism or government support. The contrary is true, he taught faith and absolute trust in the God of our fathers, not the government. When I think of liberal I think socialist, so I am curious, why was Jesus a liberal?
