Christian Group Prepares To Mark Wii as 'Porn Portal'

Citing the Wii's ability to browse the internet via the Opera browser, a Christian group based out of California is planning on targeting the console with a smear campaign, Kotaku reports. The site has gotten ahold of a leaked press release from the upcoming 'Porn Talk' media event. From the release: "Like many new gaming technologies, the Wii's wireless internet capabilities make it a portal to porno. 'Parents think the computer is the only way for their kids to get porn on the internet. Unfortunately, they are dead wrong,' says Mike Foster, founder of ThePornTalk.com. 'Gaming devices like the Wii and the PSP aren't just for fun games anymore. You're able to surf the net, chat with friends, email, and view porn because of its internet access. Kids know this but parents don't!'"

    read your Bibles,

    Oh, yeah, read what "Saint" Paul wanted you to read. That's not the same thing as what Jesus wanted you to hear. Not the same thing at all; that's why the bastard scuttled off to Rome, away from all those irritating people who knew Jesus and could contradict Paul's pathetic claptrap.

    Seriously, how about the song of solomon? Or the fact that Noah's (or was it Lot's? I should reread the damn thing) daughters slept with him? Infanticide, genocide, rape.... the thing is filled with filth.

    We need need to ban this so called 'holy book' ASAP! Think of the children!

    While I'm at it...

    Schools are a Gateway to Pr0n! Kid goes to school. Kid's friend has porn magazine in his locker. Kid sees porn, turns gay! We must shutdown schools now!

    Etc.

    Unfortunately, folks like this don't realize that you need to face evil to become hardened to it. If you never have to look upon the things that can corrupt you, you'll be completely defenceless when you get a good look at them. Just think about all those ministers and televangelists into the gay sex. Most of us, we've got some measure of sexual stuff in our life somehow, so when this gay sex thing comes along, it's like "Yeah, I'm not all about doing that". When the guy who hasn't looked at a naked girl since 1972 sees the gay sex though, it's like "Wow! This is the best thing ever! I've got to do this all the time!"

    You just named a bunch of messed of "Christians". I think anyone with some education can tell the difference.

    Don't you?

    Can you tell the difference between some Muslim like Osama bin Laden and a normal Muslims that doesn't call you an "infidel" and want to cut your head off?

    Come on. You are an educated dude. Use some sense and don't lump all people into the same "group". There are a lot of good Christians out there. There are a lot of good Muslims out there. There are a lot of good Jews out there. There are lot of good atheists out there, etc.

    It's really sad that comments like this get modded flamebait, but it's of course perfectly consistent with the leftist dogma of burying and silencing dissenting opinions that go againts the accepted groupthink.

    No, I don't agree with the parent post either, but I also have no reason to think that it's a flamebait. I don't know what kind of totalitarian delusions leftists harbor, but progress does not happen because everyone is blindly following the accepted groupthink and silencing, imprisoning or murdering anyone who disagrees.

    It's a David Rovics song: Who will Jesus bomb? http://www.soundclick.com/pro/view/01/default.cfm? bandid=111310&songid=1125356&content=song I've seen you in the markets I've seen you in the streets And at your political convention Talking of your crusade Talking of your nation And other things too terrible to mention And you proclaim your Christianity You proclaim your love of God You talk of apple pie and mom Well I've just got one question And I want an answer Tell me, who would Jesus bomb? Maybe Jesus would bomb the Syrians 'Cause they're not Jews like him Maybe Jesus would bomb the Afghans On some kind of vengeful whim Maybe Jesus would drive an M1 tank And he would shoot Saddam Tell me, who would Jesus bomb? I've seen you on the TV And on the battleships I've seen you in the house upon the hill And I've heard you talking About making the world safer And about all the men you have to kill And you speak so glibly About your civilization And how you have the moral higher ground While halfway around the world Your explosives smash the buildings Ah, if you could only hear the sound But maybe Jesus would sell land mines And turn on his electric chair Maybe Jesus would show no compassion For his enemies in the lands way over there Maybe Jesus would have flown the planes That killed the kids in Viet Nam Tell me, who would Jesus bomb Yes I hear you shout with confidence As you praise the lord And you talk about this God you know so well And you talk of Armageddon And your final victory When all the evil forces go to hell Well you'd best hope you've chosen wisely On the right side of the lord And when you die your conscience it is clear You'd best hope that your atom bombs Are better than the sword At the time when your reckoning is here 'Cause I don't think Jesus would send gunships into Bethlehem Or jets to raze the towns of Timorese I don't think Jesus would lend money to dictators Or drive those SUV's And I don't think Jesus would ever have dropped A single ounce of napalm So tell me, who would Jesus bomb? # What is Christianism about? Jesus, a poor against the poors? No, it would have been called Jesuism if it was the case. It is all about superstition, more exactly superchristus as I call it. So, I am not surprise at those extremists are against the game console that take less power but don't say a word about the other game consoles that take more as 10 time more electricity power to do the same job: to play games. And even worst, sex is only the third biggest market in this capitalistic society. They said not a word against the first market in this capitalistic society: weapons traffic. Why are children is some countries doing war? only because they can afford the food without a weapon in their hand. According to the UN, it is enough food for all on this planet and 35 millions of peoples are strawing to death each single year only because they cannot afford to pay for this food. But those peoples don't say a word about what is the biggest genocide in history: starvation by poverty. But maybe at they don't like games at all, because superchristus is not about games but about hypothetical future world domination of a small gang of religious extremists. Finally, i will not trust one word of what they can say because I am not living in a hypothetical future of the unconditional of the perfect one. but just here and now. And it is here and now at I want a better world. Note at the other religions are not better: they all claim without to be able to prove it, at we will have a better life after the death (West variant) or in another life after the death (rest of the world variant). With other worlds, they are telling peoples to don't take their responsibilities here and now but at it can wait until after the death. And they tell at the word of their perfect one is a mystery, but at the same time are trying to explain it. So, come on. If it is a mystery, no one can explain

    Ok, first and foremost, the only religious of Christian interpretations here are the ones others have lead into not me. I'm not part of any group on this. I do lean to the right but not because of some ideology, it is that the right makes the most sense, most of the time. And although I do believe in a god, I haven't read the bible more then enough to play devil's advocate. And it doesn't even come into play here. Science and human behavior does and thats what I'm basing this on.

    By definition, homosexual, heterosexual, mono sexual and any other sexuality a human can hope to aspire to, is a decision. There is nothing stopping a gay person from mating with the opposite sex just like there is nothing stopping a straight person from having sex with the same sex. There is however an underlying preference that pushes people to one way or another. Just like favoring the color red over the color blue, this preference has been learned throughout the person's life. Sometime during their life, they had to acknowledge this preference and determine to become a homosexual.

    It is the same for heterosexuals but society is prewired to push the heterosexual lifestyle so the decision isn't that obvious. But no matter what anyone thinks, they did make a decision to be one way or the other. Most often this decision is so gradual (it is made in steps or stages) that it seems the natural thing to do. Some times the deviancy of having gay sex excites the person to the point of making the choice because it was more rewarding. This is like those who think public sex is more rewarding or those who use pain, whips, role playing or whatever.

    And because society has made the decisions that sex in the act of reproduction was the right way to have it, most sex that cannot produce offspring is considered not good. The extent of which is closely related to the ability to have children and how far society is willing to depart from what they were told was the norm. Some people get a rush from doing things they know they shouldn't. Having an affair with a married woman generally results better sex because you know it is wrong. On the same note, A person who is told he can't have gay sex might find it more exciting or satisfying because he knows he shouldn't be doing it. This can also explain some of the "gay and in your face" attitude some gays adopt. It is because as society starts to accept them, the rush runs out. So they need to do things to keep it going.

    The only thing that is a mystery is how the preferences are shaped. And the mystery there isn't that it happened but when it happened. It is generally spread out over severals instances and done on a subconscious level. This is a reason people don't remember what made then like the color red over blue, they just remember when they decided red was better then blue. Just as with Being Gay.
