Default One game in hundreds makes me rage

Uhm... no... it's a piece of religious propaganda, and in my view it thus does not belong on a retrogame site, but rather on a religious propaganda site.

I can tell my views in the minority here, but I personally DO find it objectionable to host propaganda games, be they religious or political on the site.

So I say it should be removed and I'm sticking to it. Abandonia should be for everyone and hosting propaganda in my view diminishes it.

I don't find that an extreme reaction so much as a PRINCIPLED one. And I feel someone has to say such. Because I think that though not everyone has the actual spine to voice an opinion that runs contrary to the majority, I do feel it's likely there are more people who'd rather NOT see this... 'game' and other such 'games' on this side. And if the religious people can put this game on the site, give it a top rating and claim it teaches 'truths' (hilarious!) Then they should get appropriate blowback for that nonsense, and that's what I felt I did. I'm sure they consider that intolerant, but hey, some religious people consider everything that doesn't 100% agree with them intolerant. So their not great judges of it if you ask me. At least not in my experience.


Additionally I'm not sure if I was the one being accused of comparing christianity to nazism, but I don't think I did so. I can't say I hold a favourable opinion of any religion. But I didn't go there and I didn't now nor do I intend too.

I simply have a principled objection to this site essentially favoring christianity over any other beliefs by hosting games like this. Because in the end that IS what it is, no matter what excuses one makes for it.

As I said, I know this is minority opinion here (regretably), so that's the last I'll say on it. But again I do repeat.

I say this game should be removed from the site.
