The evil man behind it all – Will Wright

Posted at 9:42 am under Uncategorized

I used to like Will Wright.  He created Sim City, a fantastic game that celebrated the earth that God created for us and allowed you to use all your God given abilities to make an ideal society.  But if you ever felt like you had too much power, God would come in with a tornado or an earthquake and put you back in place.

You would think that as a member of the Episcopal Church, a smart man like Will Wright would not be capable of creating Spore.  However, we must be reminded that the Episcopal Church is the only church in america that ordains homosexuals on a regular basis.

It makes sense that a perverted church would cause a man to make the creations he has in this game.  It just may be that evolution is not the only thing to fear this game teaching your children.

    well yeah, you don’t really think god would an imperfect form such as us do you?

    The very fact that this game was made in your own argument is more than the evidence you should need to see we were a mistake.

    God sent jesus, and you know what he was better than all of us right? that’s becuase he was created in gods image. And seeing as jesus was more important it only stands to logic that we were not the same as jesus and thus god gave up on us becuase instead of finding everyone jesus meet to be equal to the son of god, everyone was just killing and following. jesus was better than us becuase we are no created in gods image such as he was.

    deal with it, he’s not coming back untill the human race as a whole is just as pure as he was. If we were really made in gods image then there would be no reason to have to pick the best of us to go heaven, because god doesn’t make mistake.

    maybe he just pitis his mistake.

    speaking of which your one of them, as far as I am concerned we are born from evolution. and Evolution is something god created.

    so evoution could be explained as a from of creationism.

    but I forgot, I have to go.

    thank you for your time.

    You havent a clue have you?

  3. Benzeneon 09 Sep 2008 at 6:57 pm 3

    Ok Jay Jay I just want to clear you up on the concept of creation and how evolution is not a viable or supported theory of creation. First of all macro evolution would require millions and millions of years to be carried out. Now if we look at a timeline of the Bible and you believe the Bible to be true then the earth would only be around 6,000-10,000 years in age.
    Now lets put time aside for now and assume you do have the millions of years needed for evolution to work, well then you run into another problem. The Bible claims that all the animals ate plants and were peaceful and that there where no diseases present before the fall. Well if you look at your beloved fossil record you will see that there is carnivores activity way back near the beginning and also suggestion of disease meaning that the Bible would have to be wrong on this account and that God would have lied, however we also read in many parts of the Bible that God does not lie. SO based on that creation and evolution cannot be “married” into one theory as many have done and as you have tried to do.

    Still don’t believe me??? Take a look at this article called “10 Dangers of Theistic Evolution” http://creationontheweb.com/content/view/1749

    god did not write the bible, neither did jesus. I am a christian and i know for a fact that it was written by apostles of jesus christ that never talked to god once. In the name of all good christians, go take your agenda elsewhere.

  5. LOLon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:27 am 5

    God wrote the bible?

  6. Frankon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:27 am 6

    Since when did God write the bible?

  7. davidon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:28 am 7

    i know, spore is gonna be awesome. it’ll be like sim universe. i really can’t wait until i can grab a copy.

  8. hmmon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:30 am 8

    @admin – God didn’t write the bible.

  9. Gahazon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:34 am 9

    Ah admin, but how would he explain such a process to a more primitive man? I am completely tolerant to whatever anyone wants to believe in, its their time here to spend as they wish, if they don’t agree with me its not my problem. People can interpret things such as the Bible in many ways.

    Just for the sake of the discussion isn’t understandable in some small way that when God had his message put into word through the pens of men that he had to explain it in a way they would comprehend? It was the age of miracles according to the Book, and men then would easily understand 7 day creationism, but probably would have no clue if instructed to write that as God slowly manipulated molecules into the way he desired them through time and effort man took shape from the genetic material he created.

    The game is just that, a game, its fiction to entertain. There is no message to unravel, its a playground formed around the idea that science has put forth. The terrible creations that you have posted (And yes they are terrible and appalling) are not actually included anywhere in the game. They are created by the player with the toolset available. They don’t evolve, the player can choose to skip that step and just use the assets available to make whatever he feels like. This leads to oddballs and freaks producing nasty and unnecessary things to post and giggle about. EA itself is deleting these creatures when they get uploaded and banning the users from connecting the game back online when they get caught so EA is actually trying to help.

    If there is anyone to worry and pray about, its the individuals that feel it needed to use a simple tool set for a game and do their best to pervert it. The game is a canvas and trying to ban and curb this game is like trying to ban or curb the use of paper and pencils. People have been using THOSE tools for terrible things for a lot longer.

  10. Gahazon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:36 am 10

    Remember when interpreting the Bible, even the faithful have been arguing about its interpretation almost since is was completed.

  11. Guyon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:37 am 11

    Mr. Admin,

    The bible’s stories were not meant to be taken as truth, they are a set of stories to tell you how to lead a good life. It is people like you that ruined religion for me.

    What many people don’t seem to understand is, the bible was written by man. Not some entity that nobody has seen.

    And since the people that wrote the bible were not around to see a lot of those things that happened, they can be easily passed off as false.

  12. Jakeon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:39 am 12

    You do realize that Spore is just a video game, right?

  14. you are retardedon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:41 am 14

    are you retarded? seriously wow you seriously have to be the biggest idiot on this planet. I am christian and i love this game. i love it so much that i bought it twice for my iphone and for computer. This game is not evil will wright is not evil. I ts a simple game where you get to create creatures and they evolve and big deal. This is whats wrong with 99% of christians THERE TO DAMN CLOSE MINDED. ITS A GAME. Are you going to pull your son out of school because they teach evolution? you seriously need to get a life. You know something im going to pray so that god gives you a freaking mind. Accept society and science. Just because you disagree dosent mean you have to start a website. its a harmless game. Its not going to destroy or corrupt anyone its a fun game. and if they wanted to explicitly teach evolution then the creatures wouldent look like elmo or any of those toddler monsters. The “penis” monster is not a reason to be trashing this game. An idiot created and whats wrong with a penis isnt that part of gods creation? and breasts and a vagina ?

  15. Paustinjon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:42 am 15

    Are you aware that the Christian Bible was written by Mankind and has been edited and rewritten constantly for the last 2000 years? Do you seriously believe that what’s written in any of the many versions of today’s Christian Bible is an exact quote from Jesus, The Prophet of Nazarus, or God?

  16. Disappointedon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:43 am 16

    I think this is one of the downfalls of the freedom of speech combined with the internet. Religious fanatics who are oblivious to science and reason are suddenly able to broadcast their views on a global scale. OH NO! Children might be taught a concept that is based on hundreds of years of empirical study! How can they ever grow up to be functional members of society with that kind of upbringing.

  17. jayon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:46 am 17

    “Jay, I want to point out that if God created evolution, wouldn’t he have said so in the bible?”

    Wouldn’t you think that writing about the intricate workings of human anatomy and cellular biology be wasted on a bunch of bronze age desert dwellers? How would you even explain molecular evolution to someone like that?

  18. pollyon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:48 am 18

    The Bible was written by man (actually, men), not god.

  19. bigjonnoon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:48 am 19

    Wasn’t the Bible written by (fallible) human beings?

  20. Seanon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:48 am 20

    Except you are all forgetting that the Bible wasn’t written by God. Nor was it written by Jesus, or anyone that actually met or spoke with Jesus, or for that matter anyone who met or spoke with someone who met or spoke with someone who was related to someone who met or spoke with Jesus.

    The Bible is an imperfect human creation written hundreds of years after the events of which it mainly speaks about. Also the Bible is written by a number of different people, one for each Book for the most part.

    And the Bible is filled with errors, from chronological to geographical.

    Also, evolution is just a concept. It isn’t some force guiding the world or universe. It is just a word to describe the noticable way in which on a macro level creatures seem to change based on the enviroment they are living in. But the individual creatures don’t change, one creature might have a genetic mutation which makes it more likely to survive, those it’s genetic make up because more common. Then suddenly you have a new completely distinct creature from the original. Things change over time, and the term for that event is Evolution.

  21. Ben Harrison 10 Sep 2008 at 2:48 am 21

    admin, you are what’s called “not even wrong.” Your beliefs are incompatible with evidence, and can therefore never be proved or disproved. Your beliefs have removed you from the conversation and from culture in general. I feel sad for you.

    Get a life my child.

  25. Bobon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:55 am 25

    Hey dude,
    Sooo to quote Genesis 19 “”Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us, so that we may know them.” 6Lot went out of the door to the men, shut the door after him, 7and said, “I beg you, my brothers, do not act so wickedly. 8Look, I have two daughters who have not known a man; let me bring them out to you, and do to them as you please; only do nothing to these men, for they have come under the shelter of my roof.” 9″

    The bible’s rated E right? So an angry mob shows up at your house, you offer them your virgin daughters? To “do to them as you please”?

    I’m pretty sure that violence and vulgarity are a little more prominent in the bible than they are in Spore…. Think about it ;D.

    Also, isn’t it a pain in the ass to clean all the windows in that glass house?

  26. bigjonnoon 10 Sep 2008 at 2:55 am 26

    Incidentally, calling someone evil for having different beliefs than you isn’t doing your cause any favours, nor is it doing much for the image of Christianity as a whole.

    It’s not quite on the same level as the bang up PR job extremist terrorists are doing for Islam, but the idea is the same.

  27. Josh ahton 10 Sep 2008 at 2:56 am 27

    Haha! you have EA adverts on your website!

    Also: grow up.

  28. Xbudzon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:00 am 28

    Um, the Bible is a STORY.

    There are parts of the bible that were taken from ancient stone tablets that predate Jesus.

  29. Dani bISHOPon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:00 am 29

    ‘admin’, I want to point out that if God wrote the Bible, wouldn´t he have signed with a big “God”?

    Funny site. Sorry for my english.

    Bye!

  30. WGSXFrankon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:00 am 30

    First of all, who is to say that the Bible was written by God? The Bible? The Church which is organized and headed up by man?

    You show me SOLID proof that the Bible was, in fact, written by God and could have in no way been altered by human hands, and I’ll take your arguments against evolution more seriously.

    The thing is, I’m sure you can’t.

  31. Riddleson 10 Sep 2008 at 3:03 am 31

    If god created a spherical earth, wouldn’t it have said so in the bible instead of repeatedly saying it is flat? Evolution is the process of adaption to environmental factors over the course of generations via “survival of the fittest” breeding and random mutations

    Anyways, I call Poe’s Law on this entire website, sure there are actually people ignorant enough in the world to do something this stupid but by looking at the way things are written, I’m guessing this is a joke

  32. Scabson 10 Sep 2008 at 3:03 am 32

    I’m so disappointed in Will Wright. When he first announced the game I assumed it was about plants or something. I thought it was such an odd name for a game but I was still excited because he has made so many great games before.

    When I learned it was about evolution I became really upset. I promised my nephew to buy this game for them but now I can’t because it’s filled to the brim with the words of the devil! Needless to say he got very sad when I told him that.

    This evolution thing is really becoming increasingly annoying. Almost every day I hear people talk about fossile evidence and geological proof but I don’t care about things I don’t understand. I have all the proof I need in the holy book. If Jesus lived at the time of evolution you’d think he’d mention it in his book, the Bible. But no! Scientists never bother to mention that part in their “evidence”.

    Will Wright. I love your other games but this one went too far. I’m also sad for you because now I know you will spend eternity in hell. But because I really liked Sim City I will still pray for you.

  33. Linkin park fanon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:04 am 33

    Yup thats it, he is evil, not the devil, nor hitler. Just a man who loves video games. Shun this man and stone him

    By the way, I am very religouse, but even I know when to draw the line between valid point and ridicules

  34. Lewison 10 Sep 2008 at 3:04 am 34

    Is this a joke website?

    I hope it is.

    How backwards can you be.

    Hopefully all the people who think like this will soon become extinct.

  35. Foreigneron 10 Sep 2008 at 3:07 am 35

    This is why the world is upset at this country. People like you. Don get me wrong im not trying to offend, just being objective and intending to make myself as clear as possible. Religion is not a truth, is a guideline for self growth. When people become radicalists (like in this case yourself) they begin to take every word from a page, written by different wise men, as reality instead of methods of self awakening, religion turns into an obsesive fiction, like those people that believe when they die they will be rewarded with 40 women. Its not true because a book says so, neither the fact that the world was made in seven days, and humans were made from clay. Even the Holy church puts its beliefs in “divine intervention” and “the divine touch”, but for some reason, a part of this country (mentally retrogradely lower than a 3rd world) refuses to aknowledge even what their own church tells them to and create their own churches where they can worship pages from an old book (though coran is much older/ wiser). And dont get me wrong, im a Roman catholic raised as a Jesuit, and still i can not only see past such things but alow myself to follow that one word that is written in that book you “follow so much”.. tolerance. Learn to respect others and their beliefs. We are not in the middle ages, nor in the inquisitions. If you dont want to corrupt the mind of your children, let them read, turn off your O’Riely Factor and your FOX, show them phylosophy, and allow them to wonder, ask and grow, unlike the stones in your back yard.

  36. Lillithon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:08 am 36

    People like you make me hate every piece of religious thinking on this planet. I generally believe everyone who feels the need that they cannot handle their life without religion should be able to practice that. But seeing how you abuse an innovative videogame to undermine your own narrow-minded approach to life is making me sick. Why don’t you just stick to your own little universe and leave the rest of the world alone?

  37. Donon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:09 am 37

    Who are you who think you can pass judgment on others?

  38. Matton 10 Sep 2008 at 3:11 am 38

    Good point admin. If it’s not in the bible then it’s not real.

    That’s why all the planets in the solar system don’t exist. The pictures produced by the so-called “NASA” (frauds) were forged by Godless heathens to put down religion ESPECIALLY Christianity.

    In fact, any other galaxy the the so-called “scientists” believe they have found are merely pictures put up by God to test our faith.

    Go super Jesus go!

  39. ROFLon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:11 am 39

    religion & blind faith

    “This sort of behavior is left to the psychotic, dogmatic, fundamentalist believers you see on T.V. everyday letting off bombs and killing people in the name of God. Beliefs are dangerous. Beliefs allow the mind to stop functioning. A non-functioning mind is clinically dead. Believe in nothing.” -MJK

    as for spore…..there is no way your going to succeed in bringing this amazing game off the shelves. Making games is an art form now tell me you want to change the constitution in order to make everyone else follow your beliefs….good luck in other countries, we don’t need you here.

  40. Not a moronon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:12 am 40

    Have you even read the Bible? It contradicts itself over and over again.
    I’m willing to bet that, if most intelligent Christians actually read the entirety of the Bible, they would lose their religion.

  41. Garyon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:16 am 41

    I find it really sad that people are so caught up in the little things in the bible, that they miss the big picture. Spread the word of god, be kind to others, and share the good news of Jesus. A large portion of the bible contradicts itself, and science has proof of the world being older than 10,000 years. So what? I believe in evolution and god… does that make me a bad christian?

  42. laurent michelon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:16 am 42

    so benzene believes all fossils we have found were made in the last 10000 years? That would mean sabertooths and dinosaurs were around when Adam walked the earth.

    if adam saw the dinosaurs, wouldn’t he have said so in the bible?

  43. Rosson 10 Sep 2008 at 3:17 am 43

    Hmmm…I’m I the only one who knows that god did not write the bible?!

  44. Ethanon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:18 am 44

    You’re assuming the bible is written by the hand of God. Ask any biblical scholar or historian… It’s been translated so many times and compiled from so many records. Not to mention the politics that went into which records actually made it into the versions we have today.

    I’m not attacking Christianity, but it offends me when you call a church perverted, suggesting that they are less Christian than you are because they don’t necessarily hold the same parts of the bible to be as important or even as true as you do.

    Someone can be just as Christian as you are and not accept some certain part of the bible. Traditional creationism for example.

    Do you accept some of the Bible verses that condone slavery or other outdated practices? I assume not, so I wonder why it’s such a big deal that another church doesn’t mind homosexuality or evolution.

  45. Epixon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:18 am 45

    Clearly you’ve never read any theology. The pope himself thinks it’s absurd to believe that Evolution and God cannot co-exist. In the mindset of Christianity, evolution was simply the tool that God used as a means to and end. God created creatures that can adapt to survive, sounds good right? Infact, it says that God created man from the dust, of course, micro-organisms exist in the dust, therefore, it’s likely that infact Evolution was the key, and we evolved. You have to see reason here..

  46. Andrewon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:20 am 46

    will wright is not perverted my god.

    you have no evidence. you just assume that because he is from a specific denomination that ordains gays he must be gay and is perverted.

    again, shallow minded. let me reiterate. WILL WRIGHT DID NOT CREATE THE PENIS MONSTER OR ANY OF THE OTHER VULGAR CONTENT! HE ONLY CREATED THE TOOLS WITH WHICH A FEW PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT THE GAME IN TURN USED TO CREATE THAT CONTENT. what im saying is some random boy somewhere thought it would be funny to create the penis monster and so he did. thats how it goes.

  47. lolwuton 10 Sep 2008 at 3:20 am 47

    No, they wouldn’t have said so in the Bible. The people who wrote that fairy tale hadn’t come across such a concept yet.

    About the main post though, you play God in the game. If it’s ok in SimCity, why isn’t it ok in Spore? Oh, right, because it has that unrealistic type evolution propaganda which would only pollute the minds of idiots.

    Actually, after that last line, I can see why you, as a Creationist, would be against this game now.

  48. apatheiston 10 Sep 2008 at 3:21 am 48

    Ah yes, the classic “The Bible is true because it says it is!” argument. Round and round we go!

  49. waon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:22 am 49

    Well no because the early chapters of the Bible were compiled by men who wouldn’t understand or know anything about the concept.

  50. Daveon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:23 am 50

    I think the fact that the Bible was written before the theory of evolution was introduced suffices as an answer here.

  51. antichriston 10 Sep 2008 at 3:24 am 51

    god .. you are such an idiot, go burn yourself in front of a church …

  52. ...on 10 Sep 2008 at 3:25 am 52

    Oh dear, bible fags. I have no idea why someone would put all their believes and faith into a book that is thousands of years old and full of ‘magic’. Really, science gives us plenty of proof to back up evolution and people say ‘DURRR IT IS LIES BECAUSE MY BOOK SAYS SOOOO’. Ugh. And you just ‘God-erized’ Sim City. I really hate you now.

  53. Argonon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:26 am 53

    I cant wait for jesus to come back so i can nail him back onto that cross and show god exactly what I think of him..

    but it will never happen as Jesus is rotting in hell for our sins. Thats right isnt it? Died for our sins and all?

  54. Meon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:26 am 54

    Does the bible mention anything about quantum entanglement (a documented and tested penomenon)?

    I thought not.

    Does it mention DNA, in any SPECIFIC way? (please note the emphesis put on “specific”)

    I thought not.

    Does it mention radiation? Again, SPECIFFICALY mentioning a phenomenon with the properties of radition.

    I thought not.

    Does it mention Rule 34?

    I thought not.

    Just four things not mentioned in the bible but yet all are undeniably true. One argument can apply to meny things, so shut your eneducated mouth and read something a bit more reliable than your precious bible.

  55. Ethanon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:26 am 55

    I would also like to add, I think it’s wrong for you to name a man as evil simply for one thing you disagree with him about. Let’s say, for the sake of argument, you ARE right. Creationism is right, evolution is wrong, etc. Assuming thats true, why would he even be evil then? Its not like he’s some conspiring genius trying to subliminally plant his views into the lives of children. So I guess what I’m asking you is– does one sin, believing (or even teaching) evolution, make you an evil person? That seems very black and white. If that one sin makes him evil, does another sin (for example: judging others, when supposedly that’s God’s job) make someone else evil? Do you decide which sins are worse than others?

  56. spireon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:27 am 56

    you say you like sim city, but doesn’t your bible tell you that imitating, or playing god is a sin? just a tad bit hypocritical, wouldn’t you say?

  57. Lewison 10 Sep 2008 at 3:27 am 57

    God didn’t write the Bible though.

  58. funniest site everon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:27 am 58

    And the homosexual bigotry as well. How’s that stay in the dark ages treating you?

  59. Sidon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:30 am 59

    I think that creation itself is not as important as the rest of the bible. God spent two chapters in one book explanning creation.then from there to the end of Malachi he shows us life without christ. he also shows us that we need christ. then the first four books of the new testiment are christ and his teachings. then the rest until revelation is what to do with his teachings. then revelation is his return. So, if you look at it from a large perspective the bible is mostly about christ. if god (wether evolution is true or not) actually cared that we know HOW he created then genisis would have been a larger book. The purpose is christ and to be like christ. Showing the unsurpassable worth of all of creation. This includes “sinners”(as though we are not all sinners) and “saved”. The thing i love about this debate is that it forgets that there are bigger problems in the world. Science has forgotten that it exsists to make life better for all of us. studying macro-evolution does not do this. micro does but not macro. Christians are here to spread the new about jesus but we are so focused on evolution and political control that we dont love anyone into the kingdom. If scientists would make the physical better and christians bring people to christ then who has time to argue about macro-evolution.

    (I’m from Europe, not the USA, so I don’t know.)

  61. Joshuaon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:36 am 61

    Don’t you think god would have been careful enough not to contradict himself in his own book?

  62. Macon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:37 am 62

    benzene,
    Looking in the Bible for a literal timeline is flawed as it is filled with seperate books, filled with stories and works, with some being passed down generations orally. Also, if you take into account Genesis, and how God created the Earth in 6 days and rested the 7th, how is there any viable way of knowing how long God’s day’s are? His days could be millions of years long. How could God have created the Earth and the sun on a day timeline when there was neither day or night at the time? jay jay is right, God could have created evolution. I believe that God created evolution as a means that his creations could adapt to better suit themselves.
    admin,
    God also never mentioned physics and gravity in the Bible, but does that not mean that neither of the two exists? There are many things that are not in the Bible that exist. Even so, God did not write the Bible, others wrote the bible under divine influence.

    I applaud you for standing up against something you don’t believe in, but you have taken things too far.
    You have no right to say weather a religion is right or wrong, as you did towards Will Wright’s church, the Episcopal Church. No religions are “right” or “wrong”, as God is universal. Religion is something “you” as an individual must believe in. Every individual is different and therefore has their own beliefs. You have no right to say that one man and his church are perverted.

    What you are truly advocating is hate. Hate towards all you do not think exactly as you do.

    Thanks for your time

    EA is not trying to impose any ideals on anyone. Indeed, in a game with pseudo-scientific backgrounds (though the actual evolutionary path is not pure Darwinian) they allow a “religious” path for the creatures to follow. Claiming spore to be evil is silly, it’s simply a game.

    Why are homosexuals bad?
    Because the bible says so.
    And why should we believe the bible?
    Because the bible is the word of god.
    How do we know?
    Because the bible says so.
    How come other religious texts related to other religions aren’t to be believed?
    Because the bible says so.
    But then why do other religions exist?
    Why are there mountains of evidence contradicting religion? and NO evidence supporting it? I could go on, and on.

  71. Kristianon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:46 am 71

    While I am not a theologian, nor do I believe in ghosts, but I do happen to know a thing or two about Christianity and religion in general, being an educated person and all.

    What I know is that the bible is a series of stories, often conflicting, written by humans. Unlike the Muslim Koran, there’s nothing in Christian mythology that states that the words of the bible was handed down from god. If you do read the bible, as I have done myself, you will note several contradictions. If you follow the mythology’s pattern, this can be explained by the fact that it was stories told by humans. The essence of the work is what most learned theologians accept as the most important part of the bible, not the precise word.

    There are many scientists who believe in a higher being and/or an afterlife of some sort. These are educated and wise people, yet they accept that the Bible is not precise, though they still have faith in the essential stories that the bible tell of: Creation, Jesus as the son of God, and so on.

    However, there is a large amount of ignorant people who seem to think that science somehow goes against the word of God or the Bible. This is, to say the least, ludicrous.

    The bible never actually does state when the earth was created, it has been calculated based on tales of the lineage from Adam and Eve. It’s fairly easy to understand that if one assumes the bible to have been written a few thousand years after these incidents at the VERY MINIMUM, that whoever was told the story, took a few shortcuts, that would be human nature, and frankly, there’s nothing wrong about it. I can’t blame a guy for not wanting to write down a family tree going back 10 million years with the average life span being somewhere between 20 and 100 years. It doesn’t make a very good reading, either, to be frank, and if such a lineage was written down, I doubt anyone would read it, or hold any real belief to it.

    As for your general rants, I’m impressed. You live by double standards. While in Spore, one would have to actively attempt to get what might be considered offensive images, your site offers them right up front with absolutely no warning label at all. Consider the result if a kid who is wondering about Spore finds your site. Instead of finding what might be a good warning, he gets “naked people and penises” on the front page. Not very responsible of you AT ALL.

    On a side not, I should mention that on the Super Nintendo (SNES) version of Sim City, it was Bowser who was responsible for natural disasters, which puts this specific post in a tad bit of trouble…

    As for the stock prices of Electronic Arts, it has indeed sunk slightly since the release of spore. However, the deviation we are talking about, are well within the standard deviation we can see on EA for the last 2-3 months. The nature of the stock market is that stocks go up and down. I’m sure a stock broker can confirm that it’s fairly normal that a company has a stock slightly higher right before the launch of a much advertised product. In this case, the drop probably compensated for what might have been inflated, but I’m no stock expert. However, just looking at it statistically (and I do have an education that requires statistics), it’s not possible to draw any real conclusions from the relatively small fall in the stock price.

    Spore is more like God than real evolution.
    Maybe why its called a God game?

  76. The-Devilon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:48 am 76

    >Jay, I want to point out that if God created evolution, wouldn’t he have said so in the bible?

    It does, it says “God created everything” Therefore, he created evolution. And it doesn’t make a list over every minute thing he created, so that argument fails.

  77. Larryon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:49 am 77

    Benzene, you’re taking all your proof from one source: the bible. It’s a single book, that was written by a group of men saying it was the voice of god. Did you know that it was edited down? that means that there’s a bunch of gods word that they decided not to put in the book. Why would they do that? if it’s gods work, then it should never need to be edited. it’d be perfect.
    Macro Evolution happens extremely fast. It’s really easy to spot. Esp come winter time during flu season, where all the viruses that we managed to immunize against the year before, have suddenly evolved to overcome the immunization and attack us again.
    A scientist in Britain has been evolving single celled organisms for the last dozen or so years by simply changing the environment the cells live in. each generation changes form and chemical makeup in order to survive in the new, hostile conditions.
    Since we’re made of of billions of cells that start out as a single cell in an egg, once the sperm has been introduced, it stands to reason that that single cell can change itself, Evolve so to speak, and thus create something totally different. Hence the reason no two people ever look the same. Being made in gods image would mean we should all look the same, act the same, and pretty much do the same as God would, and we obviously don’t do that.

  82. Davidon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:55 am 82

    Where does this “God wrote the bible” thing come from? The new testament was written about a hundred years after Christ, and since then has been mistranslated and messed around with so many times that I simply have to ask myself “What would Jesus do/say?” when I find a section of the bible that doesn’t quite fit with the rest.

    Which bible are you speaking of, by the way? I hope not the King James version. While the King James version is beautiful and contains absolutely breathtaking wording, there are better translations out there now after years of linguistic study we didn’t have in the time of King James.

  83. Orson Beanon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:58 am 83

    Dear admin,
    No. A lot of things happened in the bible, and not all of them were literal. Personally, I’d rather believe in evolution than in the entire human race being born from two people. Mind you that continuing for another generation would require inbreeding, which I don’t find to be particularly Christian either. I do believe that the human race isn’t possible without God, but I also think that it happened via evolution.
    Besides that, this game also exists because it would be fun, whether things happened this way or not.

  84. AmusedPaganon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:59 am 84

    Look, anyone who has issues with this game has no inner child, and I pity them. EA is not “attacking” Christians or your values. It’s merely a video game. Everyone has the right to entertain themselves, and if I want to buy an “inappropriate” game and play it, that’s my own damned business. And it isn’t your place to tell me or anyone else otherwise. Look, I’m sorry if your child may have made a creature in Spore look offensive in some way, but that is your problem, not anyone else’s. So, where do you come off telling people what is and is not right for them or their children? So why don’t you get down off your high-horse and stop telling people what they should believe. If I think my child could play this game with no issues, than I am going to allow my children to play it. And you aren’t going to tell me otherwise. And I’ll be damned if you tell me I’d be a bad parent for doing so. As for the whole “creation v.s. evolution” issue, isn’t it getting old? I certainly don’t care, and I’m more than certain that I’m not the only person who is sleeping well at night not caring about the issue. It doesn’t matter whether or not our universe was created or it evolved. We weren’t there to witness it, so why don’t we just leave it alone? I think we all would be better off without the never-ending debates about everyone’s theories behind the questions that we don’t know the answers to. Believe what you will, but don’t push your beliefs onto others who don’t wanna hear about it. So, why don’t you chill out and lighten up so you can enjoy the things that are meant to be fun. Have you played Spore? I wouldn’t be so quick to judge the game until you’ve played it.

  85. christians make me lolzon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:59 am 85

    You’re so caught up in your religious beliefs and obsessions that you refuse to believe anything but what’s written in some book written by a random assortment of insane people with similarly absurd notions. But, of course, it has to be completely 100% true, just because “God,” this notion that people from thousands of years ago came up with just so they could satisfy their own lack of understanding of the world around them, “told people” to write it. Or however it went, I don’t really know. Or care. I’m sorry for coming to your website and saying shit like this, but I just find it amusing how you can insult visionaries such as Will Wright just because one of his games disagrees with your beliefs. And they are YOUR beliefs, not those of everyone’s. So enjoy this blog of yours, maybe if you’re lucky EA’s stock will come down by another few cents. I have nothing against you personally, and I myself feel that other people who value science and intellectualism over ancient scriptures should just STFU and leave you alone. Since God seems to comfort you, you may as well have that much. Life is short, anyway. You can live it however you wish to. But personally, I’m glad that the number of Atheists is increasing rapidly, especially among the younger generations, who are going to be the future of our species. Some day, love it or hate it, the “turn” will happen, and you guys are going to be in the minority. I guess I have “God” to thank for that too? Or not.

  86. Minnaowon 10 Sep 2008 at 3:59 am 86

    I’m really sorry you feel that way about Will Wright, evolution, and homosexuals.
    The way I always read The Bible and Genesis was that it supports evolution. After all, man came last and was given dominion. I also always seemed to read some little parts about loving thy neighbor and leaving the judgment to God. But maybe I’m wrong.

  87. Adamon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:02 am 87

    um. you do realize the god didn’t write the bible.

  88. Whoa...on 10 Sep 2008 at 4:03 am 88

    Admin, if god created evolution then wouldn’t that mean the bible is not a true story?

  89. poopdogon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:03 am 89

    this is just the work of someone who believes so strongly in his idea that he is willing to bash entertainment to get his point across. In my opinion, things evolving over milloins of years is a lot more convincing than a man in a white robe pointing, sayng “chicken” and a chicken poping into existance.

    and before you say “then why isn’t it in the bible?” mabey you should consider the fact the the bible was written over 2000 years ago and that mabey people didn’t know about evolution back then either.

    I know this responce will probably not change anyone’s views, I am simply expressing my own opinion.

  90. Zeroon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:05 am 90

    I honestly see where your coming from with this, as a person of faith myself, but I would like it if you would look at it from another viewpoint. The Bible is one great book, but isn’t perfect. Much of it was written by man after hearing gods word or events directly related to his glory. And 100% accuracy is unlikely.

    “The earth was made in 7 days” What is seven days to one as grand as god? all of time? Perhaps we still live in that “seventh day.” You see a lot of interesting things if you don’t take the more mystical passages early on literally. Eating the fruit in the garden could have meant the day we gained sentience and became a thinking race. Then the concept of good and evil entered our hearts and we were set apart from nature.

    I think that in all gods glory, evolution could be a brilliant tool to accomplish gods goal. and if you think about spore, it’s like that too. There is no random evolution, it’s guided from the first single cell to the great race that travels across the stars. In effect, it’s a god simulator (abet much more limited than he would be. And your race doesn’t become a demon or something perverted automatically. it is what YOU make it. If you want a peaceful race that eats only plants, makes alliances rather than fights, and unites all the members of it’s species on the planet through religion and peaceful co-existence, then by all means.

    PS: Those offensive creatures? the company often bans people from online play for making those…although the YouTube video remains.

  91. Earthon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:05 am 91

    God did not write the Bible.

    Humans are imperfect creatures. We lie. We stretch the truth. Do you not think that at least SOME of the many contributors to the Bible may have done this. Do you not think that there is even a chance that the Bible may have been skewed and lost in translation over such a long period of time? The Bible is not sacred. It’s not divine. It was written by men not a supernatural deity.

    Oh, and please don’t delete this comment just because it’s at odds with your personal beliefs.

  93. meon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:06 am 93

    Did god write the bible? because last time i checked god did not, man did. and since man is perfectly capable of lying then we have no way to know what is truth and what is not. This is why i hate it when people try to take the bible literally, it just doesn’t work. god didn’t make the world in a week, and if you ever read revelations (and took it as truth) there’s some messed up stuff that’s coming at the end of the world…
    i think this site is dumb and if you really don’t like the game, don’t play it but don’t push your BS on other people

    Seriously, let other people do whatever it is they’re going to do. You can’t change anyone. Only the individual can change oneself. Just forget about this, and you won’t have to worry about it, right? It’s not like it’s your problem anyways. I assume that you didn’t buy the game for your child, as you mentioned in your first post that your child wanted the game. If you didn’t buy it, then what’s the problem? It’s not your issue, so why bother dealing with it?

    Also not to mention that it took him 6 days to make the earth then rested on the 7th.
    If “it” is so powerful and great why did “it” have to labor for 6 days making it when he could of just poofed it into existence.

  111. Correctionon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:20 am 111

    Admin, you do realize that the Bible was written in such a way to relate to the people of the time, correct? The Bible said that the sky was a dome keeping water from falling onto the Earth. Clearly this is not true yet it is said in the Bible, that is because it was to relate to the people of the time. Maybe the people of the time couldn’t comprehend just what the sky was, just like I doubt they’d understand the concept of evolution if God decided to just tell them about this process called evolution.

    Have you read enough of the Bible to know this kind of thing? That not everything in the Bible is factually correct because it wasn’t meant to be?

  113. Shaneon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:22 am 113

    Well, the obvious problem here stems from a purely literal translation of the bible.

    Personally, I do believe in intelligent design. As to of why God chose this path, how could I possibly know?

    But, the physical evidence that exists for an 8 Billion year old universe FAR outweighs the evidence for a 10,000 of less year old universe

  114. bonzaion 10 Sep 2008 at 4:23 am 114

    If by god you mean some fool high on hallucinogens writing shit that will eventually lead to idiots like you trying to raise your kids the same way. I feel sorry for your children their lives are going to suck so bad.
    The bible is a load of shit anyway, oh look i wrote some bullshit so long ago that people will think its true. go eat a dick

  115. Overlord59on 10 Sep 2008 at 4:24 am 115

    Admin. I just want to say this in counter to your arguement. First off I am a follower of the intelligent design theory, but also evolution. I was also the grandson of a reverend (who’s place my uncle has taken since his death from Parkinsons God rest his soul) and my mother was a very religious person.

    First off the issue of the bible contradicting my views. I don’t trust it. Pure and simple. Even if God told others what to write, man has a nasty habit of altering things, by accident or for some form of gain. I believe it has many lessons from which we can learn and the life of Jesus is a great example of how we should live. However I do not trust everything within the Bible to be historical fact when physical evidence points elsewhere for it may well be fallible.

    Now to your statement. Isn’t it a bit arrogant to presume that God would have to mention evolution in the Bible? How can you possibly comprehend the mind of the Creator, whatever name it goes by or indeed even if it has a name?

    If you look at the old testament God is clearly shown to be a great being in terms of power but has been seen to be jealous, angry and a whole host of other negative emotions alongside his gentler side. This makes me think that he may well be the Creator but he seems to be more human than Christianity makes out (so maybe we were made in his image!). However this neither proves, nor disproves evolution even if it were true.

    Now I do not presume to change your faith. However you have made a blatant attack on a game which is a fictional game and the majority of your arguements are based on things created by immature players!! So this is my counterarguement. I wanted to make a reasoned plea for the other side rather than the obvious trolling you would get from the majority of the internet (also the same immature people who created those obscene creatures). Think more carefully about this so called fight against a game! I mean there are games full of violence and bloody battles (which I find OK as they are only games ffs) but this is the one you jump on?

    Just reconsider and accept the possiblity, no matter how much you believe that you may be wrong. Just as I will always accept the possibility that I may be wrong. Think about what you are doing and stop fighting against a game as that is all it is.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope at the least it makes you think more carefully about what you are doing.

    P.S. Yes I have played it and I found it to be extremely fun.

    God said to sacrifice your firstborn son.

    Genesis 22:2

    English Revised Version
    And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son, whom thou lovest, even Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

    The bible was written by a man, and rewritten again and again to suit man, in particular their rulers.

    So of course it doens’t say anything when the bible is nothing but a means of controlling the ‘sheeple’ of the world with fairy tales.

  118. aton 10 Sep 2008 at 4:28 am 118

    Benzene, you quote the Bible as if you’ve watched God speak every word. You forget that men of free will, who could have been just as misguided as our admin thinks EA is, physically wrote those words. Additionally, the timeline argument is misguided because we have those 6,000-10,000 years based upon civilizations. We have no real account of what happened before those civilizations, before people could write and record actions or tell stories.

    Admin, I want to point out that if God created dinosaurs, wouldn’t he have said so in the Bible? Why don’t any of the apostles speak of massive 50 ton creatures grazing in the fields alongside their cattle? Why aren’t velociraptors attacking everyone left and right?

    I very rarely make forum posts and I’m pretty sure that this post will be removed immediately but I really have to respond to this site in general (i’m not picking on this particular post). Having browsed through some of the hate-mongering against homosexuals/atheists (unrelated in reality btw) and generally anyone you don’t like, I feel you’ve all completely missed the point of the game. That’s right, I said GAME!!!!! It’s a product intended to entertain and you lot have decided somehow that it’s all about attacking your beliefs which is a bit self indulgent. The idea behind spore was to allow players to contribute to all something. To create something and know that another player has your handmade avatars populating their experience as they play. Just because a few idiots decide to depict a malformed freak having sex then hate the idiot, not themedium through which it’s created. All I’ve seen here is the usual desire of people with overinflated opinions of themselves to not only stifle ideas and creativity, but to use this as a basis for attacks on other people’s beleifs when you whine about your own being questioned to begin with. I get the impression from the general religious fervour present that there are a lot of americans who are posting here. Most of the regimes that american christian institutions claim to despise (nazi’s/communists etc) were able to come into existance because enough people thought it was ok to police people’s ideas and silence them forcefully through book burning, violence and such.
    Reference to Benzene above: The bible was written by Jews, not God (gasp!!!). I’m trying to restrain my rage at you throwing Bible references in to a discussion on a game but ….. I can’t think how to finish this sentence without calling you some ‘very naughty words’. Oh yeah, and the reference to the Episcopal Church and being evil because they ordain gays is beyond belief. If there was a hell then whoever wrote that deserves to burn in it

    I come in peace.

    I’m not bashing you, but I do wonder if you consider the fact that if you look at the probabilities, the bible not being right is much more likely. Now, the science that clashes with what the bible says has never been shown to have the kind of error that you say it does. Step back for a second, and see that one one hand you’ve got several fields of science that have never actually been proved wrong, and on the other hand you have a book recording events that people say happened 2,000 years ago. Understand that not only are you saying that the theory of evolution, the effects of which can be seen (albeit at a miniscule rate), is wrong, that carbon dating, which besides clashing with the bible, has shown no major inaccuracies is wrong, and that the science which supports a model of the universe that has never been shown to be wrong, is wrong, as well as many other fields. Now, me being the atheist I am, I am totally willing to believe in whatever religion… that I believe (personal opinion) is really plausible, but honestly, if you don’t take the the story of the bible as truth as a given, and consider that it could be wrong, it’s easy to see a few flaws in it. On the other hand, nothing is %100 or %0 percent true, so there’s always the chance that either science or religion could be true.

    I look forward to seeing your response. 😉

    Science isn’t opposition to God. Science is mankind’s effort in learning more about the world. You probably see it as a single force that is out to disprove your faith, but it’s really comprised of the theories of millions of people who had a question and tested it time and time and time again until it was realized as truth. Even so, there is always room for a new theory.. All you need is evidence of some kind and your theory of creationism might be accepted someday. Goodluck XD

  122. † ConservativeChristian †on 10 Sep 2008 at 4:31 am 122

    The bible was written by men to pass the good word of god for all.
    It is now used to shoot down science and as a hate tool against other people.
    I feel so sorry for you, Admin.

    people still read the Bible?

  124. Raian Cryoson 10 Sep 2008 at 4:34 am 124

    Oh wow. Have you even thought for a second that many people don’t even believe in a ‘super natural’ or ‘almighty’ being? Supposedly that the game does support the theory of evolution, who are you to say that they are wrong, when chances are, you may be equally as wrong in your beliefs?

    I’m an advid gamer, and am an athiest myself as I honestly do not see the logic behind an upper being creating everything as we know it. I personally support the theory of evolution, but as far as I’m aware, it hasn’t been ‘completely’ proven or disproven; just as God and the bible have a chance of being fictitious as well. Just because ‘Spore’ gives the player the choice of being able to create their own creature, doesn’t mean that it is in anyway evil. Humans being made in God’s likeness is also debateable. We are a destructive, ‘impure’ species, wouldn’t that make your God just as evil?

    Your main reasoning behind ‘AntiSpore’ just isn’t good enough. There are plenty of games that have nothing to do with God. By your logic, every game that doesn’t praise God, or support religious beliefs should be banned. The game series, Halo for example, has a plot that revolves around a religious alien clan, ‘The Covenent’, that believes that several ring-shaped planets will bless them in God’s light. Turns out, humans in the game end up destroying The Covenent because their ‘God’s Instruments’ in reality, destroys every lifeform within a galaxy radius. There are also games such as the Ratchet and Clank series, and the Sonic the Hedgehog series that feature anthromorphic animal characters as the main protaganists in their respective games. No protaganists, but that doesn’t mean that the games are evil in anyway, and are in the most part, lighthearted and good nature. Both of which, are normally shunned by religious beliefs.

    If anything, this website is just a radical movement telling others that they are wrong in their enjoyment and beliefs because you feel differently.

    About your EA’s profits going down argument, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Spore or EA Games are evil in anyway. EA has in general been making poorly developed games that just aren’t all that fun to play anymore. Even though the stocks did go down by a buck, EA is still stupidly wealthy. 😉

    Will Wright is by no means anymore evil than yourself or any other human being. He’s probably a really nice guy in reality (I don’t know him personally, to be honest) and made a game that he thought you would entertain creative minds. Unfortunately, some of those creators have a crude sense of humor (in example, penis monsters). Although its a shame that the game is being used in that manner, its not of anyone elses’ concern on how those people spend their time with the game.

    Don’t try and put off any of this ‘I will pray for you’ or some other religious saying you know. Its just an excuse for you to look down upon us without anything to back up your claims. As the internet saying goes “Pictures or it didn’t happen”.

  125. TillyBooton 10 Sep 2008 at 4:35 am 125

    So GOD wrote the Bible… Hmmm… I thought it was Man that wrote the Bible. I know you say God “spoke” through the men to create the Bible but if that is so then how do you prove it? I mean each day there are 100’s if not 100’s of people world wide writing religious books how do you know that GOD is not using them? Or did GOD just end adding to the Bible. Maybe the Mormons might be correct and GOD spoke through Joesph Smith.

    Also what about ALL the other books that were edited out of the Bible? Remember the Bible was not created in one day or even one year. It is a collection of written works over 100’s of years and it includes text from the Jewish Torah. It has been edited multiple times first under the order many Pope’s of the Catholic Church and we currently even have TWO versions of the Bible.

    What about the differences between what you currently read in the Bible and what has been translated in the “Dead Sea Scrolls”

    http://www.ibiblio.org/expo/deadsea.scrolls.exhibit/Today/today.html

    Oh I get it GOD went back after creating the first couple of Bibles and had MAN remove and edit it right?

    If you don’t like the game then don’t buy it just like I don’t buy into organized religion (People have killed more humans in GOD’s name then any other idea in the known existence of this world).

    But I’m sure you will have some smart retort about how God is so infallible or that I’m going to Hell… since I probably know that you were going to say that maybe I’m God.

    Does your faith teach you to harbor this much disdain and hatred toward your fellow man?

    You are arrogant to think that you are important enough to give judgment on other people.

    I have a final question, would you treat your son the way you treat homosexuals if he was dyslexic? There isn’t any difference. Its a birth defect, something that went wrong in their brains, and there is nothing wrong with it.

  129. Ñ.Ò.À.Ë.Ê.Å.Ðon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:41 am 129

    Just to ad to what people are already saying.

    The real problem here is that the bible and Christianity, like almost all religions today, comes from a time when folk lore and stories were still used to explain natural “phenomena” like rain and or earthquake. These stories coupled with a system of rules and consequences, (eg. sins + going to hell) gave us religion.
    Just like everything else in society, as it advances, so do the things associated with and around it. Religion has done the same, many gods to one god, human sacrifice to loving thy neighbor. The next step in its progression would be for it to be completely dropped altogether. We have advanced enough to create our own laws therefor religion is no longer needed to help govern us. Now we have a much more logical ways for explaining natural “phenomena” that all seem to work with one another, so religion is also not required there either. In all accounts religion is not need by humans any more.
    Another simple reason why religion is no longer needed is, religion gives one another way to discriminate against each other. What are all the conflicts raging in the middle east about? Religious differences. Not only today do we have this problem but through out most of human history religion has played a part in most major conflicts, clearly going against most religious teachings.
    Religion is clearly as Freud said, “Religion is an infantile neurosis of humanity and should have already been grown out of.”

    dud, you just screwed up with that homosexual reference. the internet is going to eat you alive. people are going to find out your homenumber, your address, your everything and haunt you. this is not a threat, this is a prediction. dont approve this comment if you dont like (id really understand why), i dont care.

    but get this: you just pissed of the gays and the gamers on the internet. there are blogs about and by both. because most people share the belief that you created your own pillory by this blog, this blog will become “public” knowledge and.. well, you have seen the spike in comments since some certain post in a gamingblog, yes? this will go on. you will be eaten. and rightfully so, because you are closeminded antisocial human being that just painted a big target on his forehead for everyone to aim at.

    with a little common sense and less hatred on your part.. but wth, have a nice live.

    “Jay, I want to point out that if God created evolution, wouldn’t he have said so in the bible?”

    Wouldn’t you think that writing about the intricate workings of human anatomy and cellular biology be wasted on a bunch of bronze age desert dwellers? How would you even explain molecular evolution to someone like that?

    THIS IS SO TRUE PLEASE READ IT TWICE. God didn’t even write the bible, and honestly, how is molecular evolution relievent to any of the other things in the bible? The bible isn’t a book of sciences, it’s a way of life. It is very possible that the WRITERS of the bible (not god) made a mistake. Please, the bible shouldn’t be taken for complete fact.

  133. T-1824on 10 Sep 2008 at 4:45 am 133

    Coming from a Christian background, I really have to question the validity of this site. I can understand your avarice against Spore due to your personal beliefs, but it seems to me that all you’re doing is attempting to antagonize anyone who believes differently than you. Jesus said to go and make disciples in His name, He didn’t say to force Christianity down everyone’s throats. All I’ve seen this site doing is creating arguments and belittling those who provide scientific theories with their opinions, or who defend Spore as being “just a game.”

    On that last bit, Spore is just a game, more like a creative tool for artistic expression. Sure, some are going to use that tool to create objectionable content, but you can’t blame the tool for that. You’d have to turn your attention to the user who created the content. What you’re doing is equivalent to blaming fire for a person being burned because s/he decided to sit on an open flame. Spore isn’t attempting to promote evolution, or to disprove the existence of God. And I doubt that was EA’s or Will Wright’s main goal. EA is a company whose main job is to make profit, and Will Wright is a creative person, whose goal behind Spore was probably to create an experience that went above and beyond his previous Sims titles. I doubt either one has the ultimate goal to rally against Christianity.

    And as for your comment on evolution not being stated in the Bible. Sure, it’s not, but so aren’t many other things. Archeologists uncover dinosaur skeletons and fossils millions of years old, yet the Bible doesn’t say anything about them. Astronomy has uncovered the existence of hundreds of planets and galaxies, but if you read only the Bible, you’d think that Earth was the only thing in existence. Evolution isn’t in the Bible, but I do believe that it happens, but on a micro level. Research some scientific studies and you’ll find evidence of creatures better adapting to their environment by small changes. It might be a change in color patterns to better blend in with their environment, or the disappearance of an appendage because it’s never used. Even humanity has a tailbone that no one knows what it was used for. My point is that creatures change, they EVOLVE. It’s natural selection at it’s best. Humans don’t do this because we can think. We don’t adapt to our environment, we adapt our environment to us.

    Yes, this is a long response, but I felt it necessary to point out some flaws in your views. I think this site actually works against Christianity by giving those who don’t believe more ammunition to keep from believing or even learning something about it. You’d do more by providing facts and reasons as to why you believe what you believe, instead of just ridiculing those who respond to your comments. Of course, there are those who won’t believe in something no matter what you do. In the end, your views, beliefs and the way you live your life are your own. That’s one of the greatest gifts God has given us: free will. I’ve said my piece, and I hope you give some thought as to the true nature of your site. Thanks and God bless.

  134. Raptortimon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:50 am 134

    Will Wright is not evil! Spore is not the sin of god. It’s just a game! Why would you go out and attack Will Wright because he made a game that shouldn’t be taken seriously. I hope this is all a joke. Just cause it has evolution in the game, doesn’t make it an evil game.

    Don’t be silly, of course god wrote the bible. He created us in his image, therefore he is in our image, no? He could’ve hopped down to earth, put on a hood to hide the halo, and bashed it out in a couple of drunken days before anybody noticed he was gone.

  137. Will Bon 10 Sep 2008 at 5:14 am 137

  138. Tynanon 10 Sep 2008 at 5:16 am 138

    I find it funny how you said SimCity was a good game because you’d use your god given rights to build a city, but if you had too much power, God would come in with tornadoes or earthquakes to bring you back down. While it works fine for a video game, but do you really feel God punishes us for growing better and stronger?

  139. G*Don 10 Sep 2008 at 5:24 am 139

    STOP TRYING TO CENSOR WHAT YOU DON’T LIKE; YOU DON’T HAVE TO LOOK AT IT.

    THE BIBLE SAYS A LOT OF THINGS AND DOESN’T SAY A LOT MORE. JUST BECAUSE IT WASN’T MENTIONED DOESN’T MEAN THAT COULDN’T BE TRUE. THE BIBLE WAS MERELY A COMPILATION OF THE ACCOUNTS OF THE SMARTEST MEN OF THE TIME, NOT THE FUCKING WORD OF GOD.
    THERE WASN’T SHIT ABOUT DINOSAURS IN THE BIBLE, BUT NOW THE MAJORITY BELIEVE IN THEM. IT WILL BE A HILARIOUS/GLORIOUS DAY WHEN YOU FAGGOTS VENTURE FROM YOUR LITTLE BUBBLE OF IGNORANCE AND ACCEPT EVOLUTION AS THE TRUTH IT IS, PROBABLY COMING UP WITH THE SAME BULLSH*T AS YOU DID WITH DINOSAURS SO IT FITS INTO YOUR LITTLE BOOK. DINOSAURS WERE NOT IN THE G*DDAMN GARDEN OF EDEN, THEY WERE NOT F*CKING HERBIVORES. AND, NO, IT DOESN’T TAKE 4K YEARS FOR FOSSILIZES TO FORM.
    I LOVE THE BIBLE, BUT I’M NOT GOING TO TAKE EVERY WORD IN IT AS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH. STORIES, MOTHERF*CKER, JUST STORIES.

    AAAAAAAAAH, RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!!

    AND, NO, I’M NOT AN ATHIEST. I’M A CHRISTIAN, I JUST DESPISE ORGANIZED RELIGION FAGGOTS LIKE YOURSELF.

    BAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Morons like you guys at “antispore.com” are proof that God does not exist. I mean, honestly, how stupid do you have to be to decide to live your life around a book written by men, completely convinced in your “faith” that the book is true for the sole reason that the BOOK tells you it’s true! As if that wasn’t ignorant enough, your blantant refusal to even acknowledge any hard science that disproves your book, unless you can somehow massage it into your small-minded beliefs. You guys are the modern day equal to the cave man who worshiped fire, completely convinced that IT was god. I suppose you still think the Salem Witch Trials were a good idea?

    Thanks for the laugh, guys. This site is an AWESOME source for entertainment. Particularly the “cockmonster” had me laughing my ass off. As a parent, the game can be set to ONLY allow content from people on your “buddy list” and even then, content can be banned if deemed inappropriate (but this would require you to actually parent your children, which I’m sure you’re too busy thumping your little bibles to do.) Finally, to say that “spore” is bad because someone can create a humanoid creature that vaguely resembles a naked female is the same as saying that pencils should be banned because you might draw boobs. Or your kids can’t play with clay, because they might make tits. Here: Get rid of your computer, sinners!!! (.Y.) <— Tits.

    God doesn’t exist, because NO God in their right mind would have utter IDIOTS like you as the people he has to rely on to get his “word” across. If there was a God, you’d be the first he’d smite, because it’s morons like YOU that run people away from religion all together. I know that’s what did it for me.

    And on a parting note: 8====D <—- Cock.

    I honestly dont know what to say. I am just MAD (I’m trying not to curse because this is a christain site) that some people are SO opinionated that they would make a site (Videos fine, blogs fine) But a site? how can people take a GAME so seriously that they would make a site. Its just a video game, ad how is he “evil” don’t people have th right to creativity? The entire game is user created so its some users that are perverted, not wright. I have respected my church and my preist. But when I see them go insane over something like a game or movie I just wonder why people are like this. Why worry about a game? Games are supposed to be entertainment, not guides to damning yourself. Anybody that takes whats in a game like Spore as fact really needs to get help. So do the people who get mad over it. Also I KNOW that evolution took place because its happening today. The timeline set in the bible is from when MAN started counting. Also there always was disease and carnivore activity in the universe on earth and other planets. When you think about it humans are just smart animals. That is IF you think and not just trust whatever is written in an out of date book. Also if god is real then why was hitler born, the twin towers allowed to fall, and gangs plague towns? I hate it when people blindly worship and don’t think about other things. YOU, sir need to evolve! what makes your god any more real than other faiths? Can we prove that there is a god? We are just looking for anwsers and someone to blame. Hateing other humans for having different Ideas that you is what primitive subhumans do. I thougt mankind was beyond that!

    PS. I’m playing Spore as I write this and it’s the most fun I EVER had!

Also isn’t good for children to be more open minded to the world and not believe in one theories and ideas sometimes leads to ignorance, depending on how they were raised. Also regarding to the whole god and evolution thing from jay jay I just wanna say, have you ever read the book or saw the play “Inherit the Wind”?

    Lol, the Bible. So many revisions and so much lost due to translation from ancient desert laguages to italian then everything else. yes i said ancient desert language, i dont think people in that time period spoke in English or Italian, since both were created after it. Well i think Italian was created after it. If not, then im just talking out my ass. By the way the bible is a bunch of fictional stories pasted down the generations to teach us about ourselves and “God.” Unless you were there, all the things in the Bible are as credible as The Odyssey.

    Firstly I would like to say that I am in a christen school and I enjoy having a part in the christen religion, but I dont see it as total truth. When someone talks about evolution in biology class I am fine with that. I see being christen as a way to learn how to live a good life and not something that should take over my life.

    Will Right is easily on one of the greatest people of the last 2 decades and he has built his life off teaching people about the idea of development and socity. I own spore and quite enjoy it it is a fantanstic game with a great definition of how socity develops over time. When you put up those puictures of these seemingly inapporpriate spore creatures, take into accout that the people who made those were made by your so called, Great God not by Will Right. So open up your mind and stop living in he past, see this game as a simple toy and for GODS sake let your kid play it, he didnt want it for sexual means he just wanted to play a good game.

    a REAL christen, Gregory Rogers

    When I went to my first 4th year immunolgy lecture the prof put it quite bluntly:

    “I don’t care what you believe in or what you don’t. I don’t care if you think the earth is 6000 years old or even something as wacky as the idea that pigs can fly. Evolution isn’t a belief; it’s common sense and that’s how it’s going to be treated.”

    In other words: to the fuck face who made this site, if you don’t believe in evolution (which is supported by evidence that is so large compared to the evidence for creationism that it’s undefined), you sir are a complete and total fucking idiot.

  151. Timothyon 10 Sep 2008 at 6:00 am 151

    Its just a video game. All the “offensive content” is created by other players of the game, not the creators. I don’t believe in evolution, if you do some research its pretty much scientifically impossible (thats just my conclusion, believe what you will), I still don’t find Spore to be treading on my beliefs or offensive in any manor. If you don’t want your kids to play this, I have a simple solution, DON’T BUY IT! Raise your kids however you want and be as protective as you want, just please, keep your beliefs to yourself. How dare you think that you are above me, or have any right to censor what I play, or what others who have seen this website play.

    Keep your beliefs to yourself, live your own life, raise your own damn kids.

    The bible does not exactly say that french fries exist

    But we know they do*except for Europeans that call them chips*

    admin said “Jay, I want to point out that if God created evolution, wouldn’t he have said so in the bible?”

    so why doesn’t it say in exact terms, If God Created French Fries, wouldn’t he have said so in the bible?

    You don’t know how God created the world, and life, or how he designed it, so logically
    that question is not sound.

    Apparently, the so called God don’t even care if we believe in him or not. If he did, he would have presented us with undeniable proof of his existence and this debate would never have take place.

    Please provide references for your claim that the Episcopal Church is the only denomination that regularly ordains homosexuals. This difficult claim substantiate, particularly since one major denomination – the Roman Catholic Church – requires celibacy. It might be more accurate to say that the Episcopal Church does not require priests to lie about their sexual preference to be ordained. Does this mean their clergy men and women are more honest than those in other churches?

    And by the way, you do know that this is just a game, don’t you?

  161. JPon 10 Sep 2008 at 7:06 am 161

    So let me get this straight. If I join an Episcopal church that has homosexual leaders, I’ll end up making awesome games like Spore which will make me a crapload of money? Where do I sign up?

  162. Not Adminon 10 Sep 2008 at 7:08 am 162

    Well!! SimCity was a repulsive game in my opinion. Because it’s background was based in the fact that man can do whatever he wants with the world.

    Than, the last version of it was more ecologically correct, of course.

    So… your opinion is just one between so many others.

    Don’t like it?? So don’t play it!!

    Will Wright is a member of the Episcopal Church.
    The Episcopal Church allows gay priets.
    Therefore, games created by Will Wright are immoral…?

    What kind of logic is that!? Sounds like a personal attack to me…

  168. dennison 10 Sep 2008 at 8:46 am 168

    Will Wright is not evil. He has new creative ideas that revolutionize gaming. What you believe or not suits how you think. People are different and differ. If we are all same life would be boring. Wheter it had happened or not shouldn’t allow people to get all angry about it. It is just a game. A game. I am a Christian too. I know where you are coming from

  169. Thoughton 10 Sep 2008 at 8:48 am 169

    You can say what you want about one church but the fact still remains non hetrosexuals atend your churches that means that pedophiles homosexuals adlulters and zoophlies atend your churches just like every other religion the worst part about it is they remain hidden and do more damage and you pretend not in my house. As to debating a game why are you putting your god’s work below wasting time on a thread about a game. There have been other games that have been created such as E.V.O. that you can do as such. Wouldn’t it be better if you worked on trying to get people to be christian I mean recruiting them to the faith instead of saying this or that about a game. After all all isn’t it leave unto Ceaser what is Ceasers. What about your supposed eternal salvation. Wouldn’t it be better to quit being an idolator and spread the word of god to people that want what you got vs. spending the time in a fashion that will allow people that may have not seen the game to get involved with it and like it. What you do is the exact oposite of what you should create oposition by statements such as this.

  173. Izeckon 10 Sep 2008 at 10:03 am 173

    I read this article and just couldn’t resist. You claim to be christian, yet you call another human “Evil” just because he made a game based on evolution? It’s a game about “creating” things, not much different from a child playing with “Play doh”, “Lego” Blocks or even drawing.

    They toys I’ve mentioned do exactly the same thing that Spore does, just in a different way. Why is “Creating” a creature in a game “Evil”, but creating one on a piece of paper is totally fine?

    You call Will Wrights “Evil” for his game (Spore) then I guess you are also calling every person (including children) who has ever played with Play Doh, Lego black or even Drawn something “Evil” too?

    You aren’t a Christian, you are a fanatic who is obsessed and blind to reality. Read the bible and learn to be a Christian.

  174. No Oneon 10 Sep 2008 at 10:43 am 174

    Well, you do know that each human being has a free will to choose their own destiny right?

    By the sounds of it, you pretty much think your beliefs are the only beliefs and everything else is evil.

    You sound far too much like the Ori on Stargate, i hope you never, ever get a powerful warship ever, i think Stargate fans would know what i mean.

    But its just a game, nothing more, nothing less.

    I personally am not religious at all, but i respect that others that are religious, i respect their beliefs, all i ask is that they respect what i believe and i already know you would never, ever do that.

    My Mom is a christian and she plays spore, she thinks its fun to play, its just a game…..accept it and move on.

    You sir are an ignorant ***

    It is not up to YOU to decide who gets to invent, make or create something. YOU do not have that privilege.

    I am not a religous man myself but surely you could believe that a man with a higher standing than YOU such as the Pope or the Arch Bishop of Canterbury would be the ones to say whether this game is sinful or not…. They haven’t.

    Please find something else to take your religous zeal out on… Start another Crusade or something please…. Spore is a work of fiction by a genius called Will Wright. Let’s see you create a game that is in some way not offensive to someone… Try it.. I dare you.

    Yours Faithfully

    Could I just point out that Spore in no way shape or form supports the theory of evolution?
    If anything, it supports Intelligent Design, as the creatures which appear in game are designed, and the forms they take have not come about through random genetic mutation.
    Intelligent Design is a Christian theory, and by making this website you are therefore, to put it bluntly, ‘hoist by your own petard.’

    Another thing that ticks me off is that you can sin like a red headed step child, confess and the lord forgives you? Honestly now… Also if all those people in New Orleans were praying, why didn’t “GOD” help them?

    Hell, we don’t even know if evolution exists. We are here and that’s all that matters. Set your god damn trivial bullshit aside and realize were all humans and deserve to be treated with the same respect no matter the choice of lifestyle. No one is higher and mightier then another.

  187. Frigidair44on 10 Sep 2008 at 3:49 am 187

    Hey admin, the bible says a lot of stuff that is plain screwed up:

    Exodus 21 verse 7: “If a man sells his daughter as a female slave, she is not to go free as the male slaves do.”

    Bible is cool with women in the bonds of slavery.

    Exodus 35 verse 2: For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a holy day, a sabbath of complete rest to the LORD; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.

    So I should die for working on Sunday? Feel good preaching that?

    Corinthians 11 verse 14: Nature itself teaches you neither that it is disgraceful for a man to have long hair.

    Um, who has long hair that I know? Oh right, your image of Jesus you guys so love and cherish.

    Seems like your great and loving bible says some screwed up things. Probably because it was written by the religious men in power trying to control the stupid peasants at the time because they didn’t know better. Heck, religion and the bible still do that to the stupid people who live today.

    Doesn’t sound like your religion is much better than Will Wrights I feel.

  189. Zachon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:06 am 189

    Admin, the bible was put together by the Nicene Creed using storys told from the 12 apostles as well as some other places. The Creed took all of their godly knowledge and basically put together a book of what they wanted people to read. They specifically left some truths out as well as put some lies in. The bible’s all good and well if you follow it spiritually, listening and learning from its teachings, but the bible itself (the book) is fiction. Very helpful and sometimes truthful, but fiction non the less.

    Do you know anything about the half-life of a Uranium 238 molecule?

    About 4.5 billion years (we’ve found Uranium 238 that has been past its half-life).

    Heres an interesting Q for you… I actually dont know how you would answer this and would like to know….

    If God created earth for humans (because he loves us) why are there so many things about earth that are harmful to us? Why did he seed the all the land beneath out feet with enough uranium to cause an average of 300m/rems of radiation per person per year.

    Why does prolonged exposure to the sun create free radicals in the body which can lead to cancer?

    Why is the Electromagnetic Spectrum so vast, but we can all seeing creatures only view a sliver of it (all that we see)?

    Curiously enough, Spore got lots of flaming from atheists because it promotes CREATIONISM while labeling it Evolution.

  193. RJon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:15 am 193

    not necessarily admin. there are many ways to interpret the bible literally being only one of them. it is possible if you take the catholic view of the bible. that while it is the word of god it is written by men, god allows the men to understand the greater spiritual truth of what they are writing despite their own fallacies. basically the reason the bible doesn’t mention evolution is that the men who wrote the bible would not be able to understand it. same goes for a heliocentric universe, the bible says the sun revolves around the earth because the men who wrote it could not understand.

  195. Alex Sterlingon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:16 am 195

    God didn’t write anything in the bible. People did. Very good people who looked around and saw misery and plight. These people took it upon themselves to write, at the time, more believable versions of common myths and stories. In these stories they imbued the morals that were considered appropriate at the time, such as forcing the victim of a violent rape to marry the rapist if a child was conceived and that stealing from others is bad. Some of these morals hold up today and some do not. What is good is that people read this book and decided to stop being turds to each other and bring some peace to the world. What is bad is that some people used this book as a weapon. They used it to divide the world into believers and non-believers and therefore set up a system that can suppress part of the population and pamper another part of the population. Luckily the world is changing today and literal interpretations of the bible are becoming less popular and people are taking away the true meaning of the bible. Be a good person, help others in need, don’t cause harm to others.

    If some people really want to believe the world is less than 6000 years old, in the face of millions of separate items of visible, holdable evidence to the contrary, that is fine.

    But to start a campaign against a childrens game’ that merely uses the most realistic and obvious form of character development / growth available to the the designers (evolution) is just ridiculous, and to the point of laughability.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if you were the same people that tried to get Harry Potter banned for inciting children to devil-worship, another utterly preposterous claim, as without foundation as the bible itself. While I am on that subject, I would add that the examples of morality on offer in her books are far superior, more compassionate, braver, and more courageous than anything I could find in the bible. Have you read it ? It’s barbaric ! If you can call that a moral code, I really don’t think you can criticize this game, or anyone’s books…

    So, like JKR’s books are JUST books, this is clearly JUST a game, to keep children amused for a few hours of their lives. Yes, they can do ‘rude’ things in it, and so what ?! Children can do rude things with their own bodies if they feel like it ! I could do rude things with a game of scrabble, and you wouldn’t have anything to say about that, even though I might be using words that have EVOLVED from other words ! Do you see the point I am making ? Of course you do, which is why you won’t be brave or courageous enough to publish this.

    You can read anything into anything if your unalterable religious doctrine has pre-disposed you to do so. This particular mountain you are making out of what is not even a molehill is a perfect example.

    Thank you for the enjoyment your campaign has brought to my life today… I find constant delight and surprise to the lengths to which religion can drive ordinary, good, rational people into the realms of outright stupidity. Well done, you are leading today’s field…

    la religión es algo creado por el hombre al desconocer muchos acontecimientos que ocurrían en la vida (tales como eclipses, auroras, e incluso cosas tan sencillas como un arco-iris), gracias a la ciencia hemos descubierto la mayoría de secretos que se esconde detrás de cada “misterio”. Negar la evidencia es estúpido, existen todavía muchas cosas inexplicables pero estoy seguro de que algún día la ciencia podrá descubrirlos.

    Classic – please continue to support Creationism. The more ill informed, poorly educated, irrational people such as you, continue to promote a religious belief as scientific fact the easier it will be for anyone with half a brain to dismiss.
    Scientific debate, by the way, is about considering the facts and coming to a rational hypothesis based on the evidence at hand. Not some fuzzy-wuzzy pseudo-religious wishful thinking. Having the discipline to overcome your social prejudices and actually engage in a proper debate is not the same as simply saying you are up for a debate.

Then you point the fingers at people that think outside of your twisted box? You really have no idea, do you? Believing in the “Invisible Man” or “santa Clause” is just as crazy to me. How does it feel to be against the thinking world? If feels shallow, i know. It hurts sometimes? Yes, i know. Is it because the only people that follow your logic also believe in invisible things. Oh, thats really scary, yes. Very scary? Blindly following books written MANY times over by men, at that. Evolution is what the world is based on. Follow the path of any animal and look at evolutionary stages of it. You dont think we come from that same path? You dont believe that because SOMEONE TOLD YOU or your READ THAT..?? what?? stupid brainless human. If god created man, and man evolved to thought, and man realized that man came from other earlier creatures before him.. as other animals on the planet do, it only makes sense that we are continually evolving, and will one day change our current form to an even higher power of thinking and physical appearance. What will the church goers say then? I assume most churchs will have “evolved” with the process, and most of the current ones will go extinct along with the cave man (homo-erectus).
    One day you will all learn, but some of you will die in the process. Thank GOD (if you believe in the invisible man) for bringing out a game that allows people to THINK. Cheers.

    I would rather goto a church with homosexuals, than a church filled with pedophiles and nun rapists. Are you people serious? with all the SEX CRIMES that the church is convicted of MONTHLY, you want to talk bad about someone that goes to a church with homoS?? please. YOUR CHURCH is the WORST CULT on the planet. When will your child rapes stop? WHEN will you stop beating and raping your nuns? When will you stop raping the community? Wake up social retards, wake up and realize that we dont have to pray around the fire and hope that the invisible man will give us good crops. We have science to help us now-a-days, and its a damn stretch better than wishing on the invisible man.

    ah, now you are gay bashing too, that really helps your point too,

    WELL, i am a lesbian, how’d you like that? and i am a happy lesbo with a good life, a loving partner and a successful job. You seem to be insecure enough to attack minorities and spend money to set up a stupid site like this.

    Me? well for the time being i really do just have a fulfilled life. God hates fags? well if its god that controls everything he has given me a pritty decent life, i guess he doesn’t hate me so much after all! assuming he exists of course, i dont really believe in god as i am a Wiccan

    Yes, i am a successful lesbian witch!

    Hehe,

    I find it simply perplexing that God (according to some) created people/persons who deem to live their lives in such a short sighted manner as you. Go and travel the world, visit places, talk to people, sit and watch the world drift by. Try reading some different books besides that “one”, maybe even do some “surfing” on Wiki. After you have done this, reconsider what you have written, and consider that maybe you are the perverted one.

  242. Maximuson 10 Sep 2008 at 3:47 pm 242

    Darwinism , evolution theory etc like (innocently) used in Spore are based on facts and scientific search,creationnism and intelligent design is based on nothing. That’s the difference.
    You can think that everything is ordered by God (in fact I think so , or something like that, I am a deist not an agnostic or an atheis) if you want but you can’t pretend that it is scientific.
    You will be mocked all around the world and you deserve it .

    You can’t bear other point of view and you are irrationnal…what else?

    First of all I like to say that we live in a world where we need to respect eachothers opinion. I dont think this or that is good, i just believe in myself and in the goodness in others. I cant understand why people on this blog are making comments to eachother. If Will Wright wants to make a game within the background a atheist message, i think he is able to make such a game. And I understand people that believe in a god that they dont like this. But why in godsname are you saying this man is evil? he just made a video game, not a tribute to the Devil. And why are you pointing out that he is a member of a church that recognises gays? In Holland (where I live) its fairly common to be gay and u are equal to others. Why are American (and most other states) so blind for the simple fact we are all human? Just because being gay is a bit strange?

    kind regards

    How stupid people can be. Everyone who believes in evolution has no clue but just repeats what he/she has heard on tv or elsewhere. I used to doubt, but now I’m a true creationist. There is no scientific fact that supports evolution. Never has been, never will be. In fact, the Bible is one of the most factual books around, if you ever want to spend the time to research it. But that’s unfortunately not an option for a lot of people. Anyway, I don’t think a game like this can do any harm, it’s just a silly game like so many others. By the by, I am not orthodox, just someone who has come to see the truth. There is one God, and he created everything. Mankind just has the urge to explain everything, and go for the easy solution. No scientist has ever managed to create something from nothing. Big bang? BS. Evolution? Also BS. But hey, who cares? Just live in the now and mock Christians. right? You’ll see one day, and when that day comes, you’ll be kicking yourselves for being so ignorant.

  247. Link3265on 10 Sep 2008 at 5:02 pm 247

    Hey Homosexuality is not an issue here, the Episcopal Church is my church and it’s the most accepting denomination out there. The Episcopalian Church is not perverted, we just dont leave our brains at the door when we go to church. We are Free-Thinkers. It’s easy to combine the theory of Creation and the theory of Evolution into one. God did not create a way to tell time until the 4th day. Which easily means it could have taken ages for him to construct all of the universe and earth. It was the 4th day where he created the sense of time we accept now.

    Did u do such a crap of campaign when GTA SA/IV was launched? No, u didnt. Why? Because Will and Spore are europeans, and GTA is yankee. Man, go and suck some 22″ screens and then write something about the non-good tasting crystal inside them.

    U are definetly crazy. But what can we do? All people on the earth can be as good as normal people is, isnt it?

    Oh, COME ON. I must admit I didn’t read through all the comments so far, and skipped straight to the bottom of the page where I could reply to all this. I’m probably repeating what people said earlier…

    First of all: Evolution happens, all around you. Make an effort for once, instead of using god to fill in the gaps in your knowledge, and realize that however sad this simple fact may be, your view of the world is mistaken.
    Second: Spore, with its current gameplay, has NOTHING to do with evolution as it occurs in nature. If anything, it’s more like your ‘intelligent’ design. (Player continually intervenes and improves the creature.) What it does do is borrow gameplay features from several popular genres to create a very versatile and varied piece of work. It isn’t meant to be educational. It’s JUST A GAME.
    Thirdly: With the mountain of evidence stacked against your worldview, what gives you the damn right to dictate what others should believe? Stick it where the sun doesn’t shine, and crawl back into the black hole of ignorance you apparently came from. “Perverted church”… BAH! If you want true perversion of the human spirit, check out your ‘holy’ book. Read it, instead of swallowing what your damn preacher tells you. Think for yourself.

    Now do yourself a favor and take this website offline; all you’re doing is making an ass of yourself.

    though I thought the anti-homosexual stance was more offensive than all your “WILL WRIGHT IS THE DEVIL” stuff, considering how much more plausible a belief that is. I mean, there are millions of homophobes out there, but significantly fewer people railin’ against a videogame that ain’t even that good, amirite?

  255. annonmyouson 10 Sep 2008 at 11:00 pm 255

    I’m not even going to touch on the homosexual part other than to say that “why does it matter which gender one is attracted to?” But anyhow, a game is a game, a form of speech, protected by the constitution. Just like religion is. Just as the constitution allows you are allowed to believe in whatever god you want, and are allowed to go to church eany day {and pray to god that people with the certain chemical imbalance that gives them arousal to the pheromones of the same sex will somehow be “fixed” (though if it’s present in a human, god must have created it, and thus can’t be evil)}, it allows a game designer to create a game that is based upon the theory of evolution. there were bible games on the N64. Now we get a evolution game. Also, understand that is IS FICTION.

    What’s wrong with gays?

    Doesn’t that big storybook of yours say something like “love your neighbour as you love yourself”? But what if your neighbour is gay??? (Or black? Or a non-christian? Or a games player????)

    Btw: I thought people like you were not allowed to play computergames at all, so maybe you should go to church and pray for absolution in stead of writing stupid blogs like this.

  260. Insulted & concernedon 11 Sep 2008 at 1:12 am 260

    I am concerned that blogs like this actually call for hate against free religion. I’m not a gamer, and I’m not gay, but friends of mine are both. You have a freedom of speech, and I respect that freedom. However, when you attack my beliefs, you insult me. Like you feel insulted by the game.

    Well, let me tell you: you can ignore the game. You can just not play it. But your blog made news here in the Netherlands, so I’m confronted with your blog whether I want it or not. So I think I have more rights to be insulted by you, than you to be insulted by this game.

    Also please note that the game creator’s church is by far not the only church which recognizes homosexuality. Your information is wrong.

    I am a convinced atheist and that is my belief. I don’t believe that there is a god. I also strongly belief that the theory of evolution. The proof of evolution is more solid than the proof that there is a god (or multiple gods). However, I have respect for people who stand for their own beliefs, also if that concerns a god. But please don’t harass me with your own beliefs. The game doesn’t affect your life if you don’t want it to. So please leave it alone. It is you who seeds people’s minds with hatred. Isn’t there enough hate about religion in the world already? Just let it go and you will feel much more at peace with yourself. I can promise you that.

    Please respect my beliefs (and those of many many many other people) and stop this rant against someone who just wants to entertain people with games. Also please stop insulting me.

    And thanks for pointing this game out to me. I hadn’t heard about it, but might even buy it now. Seems like an okay game. Mr. Will Wright is now on my ‘cool people’ list.

    Just stating my own opinion here. That’s all.

    “I used to like Will Wright.”

    That wouldn’t be too long then, as he created SimEarth in 1990 and SimLife in 1992.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimEarth

    Let me quote:

    In SimEarth, the player can vary a planet’s atmosphere, temperature, landmasses, etc, then place various forms of life on the planet and watch them evolve.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimLife

    Let me quote:

    SimLife gives players the power to

    * Create and modify worlds;
    * Create and modify plants and animals at the genetic level;
    * Design environments and ecosystems;
    * Study genetics in action;
    * Simulate and control evolution;
    * Change the physics of the universe in your computer.

    Spore isn’t really new, actually, it is an old concept, from the early ’90’s that makes use of the modern technologies, like the internet and enhanced graphics.

    I think its kind of sad for people to think they have a patent on
    the truth. I am a christian myself but I accept that not everything
    might have gone the way the bible tells us and that, like in any
    good book, its the morale and the moral fiber that’s important.

    Who knows, maybe God just created 1-celled lifeforms and
    expected them to evolve. Maybe God just clapped his hands,
    causing the big bang, and sat back to enjoy what was coming.
    Maybe, Adam and Eve are just an example of right and wrong,
    and how right people can be persuaded to do wrong things.

    Please stop claiming the truth, accept that we dont know those
    things for sure, and for God’s sake, see that even in Darwins
    evolution theory there’s more than enough place for a God even
    if you dont take Genesis litterally. If i’m not mistaken, Darwin himself
    believed in God.

    What is it with you religious people? Can’t find a real life? Always doing things for the name of god? Always seeking blame in someone or something else?

    -> THERE IS NO GOD
    -> EVOLUTION GOT US HERE.

    The only thing you should believe in, is yourself and the ones you love.
    Maybe it sounds very ego-centric, but its the only road to a very happy life.
    Everything you do, you choose….you have total control of your own life.
    There is no destiny, there is no after life..this is what you get, and you get only one chance.

    I really think you have to much time on your hands, to make a fuss about something so small. I think about 5 years ago a game called “Ethnic Cleansing” was released, the main goal of this game was to shoot the “coloured” people. The gameplay itself was terrible, and i would not even start to talk about the graphics… Still I would think a game like that would be far more harmfull than “Spore”.

    All i can say to end my comment is : We could say this about your brain.. “The wheel is spinning, but your hamster is dead”

  269. Dinaon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:17 am 269

    Long before there was Spore, Will Wright created a game that embraced evolutionary theory far more (and a contemporary to the much-valued SimCity)…

    Do you realise, that by posting this message on the internet, by making this website, you are responsible for killing many trees which are needed to power the computer you use, the lightbulbs which make the keyboard visible to you, the manual you were required to read before you attempted to post at all?
    Do you realise that those very trees have been created by God himself and that you are now responsible for the loss of those trees, the deaths of innocent animals which had a home on those trees, the potential drop in birdbirths as their nests have been removed from those trees?
    Do you realise that I can make an argument against just about any action you take (the car you drive, or bike if you don’t have a car, the food you eat, the clothes you wear, etc, etc) to prove that you, just like everyone of us, is destroying God’s work and by doing so, you actually renownce God as you clearly have no faith in his work and show no respect at all for that work?

    Do you realise that there are thousands upon thousands of games out there that advocate death, disease and killing, that those games look far more real then Spore and that you haven’t built a website against any of those?
    Do you realise that your son, who asked you to buy this game, might be broadening his horizon by showing interest in other ways of living and believing?

    Do you now realise how stupid and ignorant you come across just by building a website against a game which is intended to have entertainment value, and not to teach the word of God?

    Personally I find you narrowminded. Perhaps it would be a better idea if you would start a website against any and all, for anything you do has a bad effect on what God created, if you believe in that. I wish you good luck however and hope that you open your eyes someday.

    The first I saw the name – and the bullshit he’s was talking – I instantly had to think of Jar Jar. A creature of Star Wars. I think he wasn’t that bright either. 😉

    Maybe the people that are complaining about a funny good designed game,and trow the bible and god in your face are the real proof of the evolution theorie,they represent the one’s that didnt evolved in a better version of humans,and mr wright and all people how like to play games and dont push there believes as the only truth in your face are the ones that did evolved in to better humans

    This is just to freaking hilarious!
    Christians are almost as fun, dumb and hypocrite as the Jehovah witnesses(something like that)
    I mean common… we all know god didn’t create the world. our universe is 11 billion to 13 billion years old not 10 thousand.
    It is fine if You chose to believe in this crap the call the Christian believe but don’t act like it’s true.
    As a said it is fine if you believe in it, but do realise it is full of inadequates etc. Don’t just do and believe what some book tells you, think for you self.

    Lol the guy who started this site is a genius!

    The last time I read the Bible, my impression was that Jesus loves everyone, including Will Wright. As you openly flout your status as one of Jesus’ followers, just what is it that empowers you to judge Will Wright as “evil?”

    Perhaps you should become more familiar with the Christian faith before using it as a pretense to bash a fellow human being. I would also suggest becoming more familiar with the Bible; your statement “God would come in with a tornado or an earthquake and put you back in place” suggests that your perspective of God is archaic and that you have not read up on the New Testament.

  291. PSon 12 Sep 2008 at 4:54 pm 291

    Evolution is just as much of a theory as Creationism and ID. Evolutionists have just as much right to express their theory of evolution as you have to express your theory of Creationism. Creationism (and most religious beliefs) are fundamentally unprovable (hence the term “faith”). That’s not to say that the idea is definitely wrong, but it does mean that you can’t label it as the one correct theory, and anyone who tries to say otherwise is “evil” as you put it (although Spore is in NO way propoganda for Evolutionists; it IS just a game.)

    As an aside, your views on homosexuality and the Episcopal Church are sickening.

    Anyone is a smart person when compared to you.

    You live your life completely ignorant but you’re fine with it because you are terrified of the idea that we are insignificant, you think you are special and better than everyone because you believe in a disproven deity while we’re all idiots that believe in free will and education?

    God is perfect and infallible, right?
    You are created in his image, correct?

    Then how are you so stupid and constantly wrong, in all of your posts?
    Wouldn’t that mean God is a fallible moron?

    Dear People,

    a lot of people seem to be responding to a response of a new game. I do not now this game but is it seems to recreate the creation of the earth and all that’s on it and around it.

    What’s are all these negative reactions about. It’s very easy to say that God does not exist.
    My job as a designer has learned that nobody on this earth that has ever lived ever came close to designing the number of all the different species of plants, animals, skies, water, fires, stars. I do not mean functionality but just beauty, not even to mention the combinations.

    We humans are very smart, and are able to create and invent and discover a lot. Nobody ever will be able to recreate from start a new species with the same beauty and functionality as known today.

    Even if you do not agree, never just ignore the existence of God. Let’s say that there’s a chance of only 0.1% that he exists. That’s a one in a 1000. What if that 1 in a 1000 would mean that he created earth, created heaven, created human, created eternity, created real love, peace, people, etc for ever and ever. Listen to what you say!

    It’s bizarre that you’re able in 20-50 years that God does not exist. It’s nothing compared to eternity (100000000000000000000++++++ years)

    All the people on this planet will not longer live then let’s say 125 years. This is o

    What is your problem? Why do all religius people need to bother non-religius people? Stop being a pain in the ass for us and go on with your life.

    This is exactly the same ass all those so called ‘messagers’ who keep bothering me on the street that god needs me.. I just ignore them and go on with my life, you guys should do the same..

    Just be happy with yourself and let the rest say or believe what they want…

    Without religion there would be no wars.. Religion only brings trouble..

    Fucking Hell, are you kidding me? It should be physically painful to be as stupid as you are. Seriously. Every time you say, type, do, or think something this downright retarded, you should get an intense pain in your head and genitals (to discourage your kind from breeding).

    Stupid fucking fundie! It’s ok, it’s not your fault that you don’t know how to take the Bible into context (hint: Your Christ’s death abolished the laws of the Old Testament–that’s why it’s ok for you to eat shellfish and pork! Why are those suddenly ok while being gay is still “EVIL”? DUR, you fail at life, that’s why). Oh wait…yes it is your fault that you’re so fucking idiotic.

    People like you are the reason why people hate Christians.

    In my mind there’s no difference between you and a muslim fundamentalist.
    More and more I get convinced religion is very bad and dangerous.
    Because religious people always seem to think that people who don’t share their believes are worse people than they are.
    Why do you put up a photo of the guy who invented that game in a way that could make religious fanatics think it’s okay to kill that man? Is that what you want?

    I am sorry you grew up in a household that was so close minded that you were not allowed to think for yourself. Now it is too late – you are permanently unimaginative and feel threatened by people who are, you are unable to adapt to the world as it grows more intelligent, around you.

    You probably believe that if you don’t belong to a church then you are satan’s puppet or evil or something ridiculous like that. I am SO glad I don’t belong to a church because I enjoy learning about everyone and every thing on this earth with an open mind while using my own intelligence, which in your theory “God” gave to us. I’m happy not knowing the cause of my existence because I do not believe “God” would be upset if I lived the way “He” put me here. If I meet up with “Him”, I’ll say, “Hey, how bout that! You do exist!” then say thanks and shake “His” hand. All cultures and beings on earth wouldn’t exist unless they were supposed to exist so if you were really a person of “God” then you should be a little less judgemental toward the “Creator” of those people that you find so vile. You should look up the word empathy and learn to use it in your own life.

    The game is just for fun. Pesonally it seems that genesis never took place litterly (sorry for bad engilisch).
    According to early versions of the bible, genesis took place 580 BC and the earth is flat and the centre of the solar system. According to some christians dinosaurs had never lived.

    I find those statements and changes in the bible so frustrating that i even doubt the whole sense of believing every day a little more.

    I think people ‘should be worrying about this game, after all there’s a free choice of relegion, and believing in Scientific facts and make them playable in a game isn’t a crime.

    Are you having fun living under a rock in the 1500s?
    Because that is a discusting post. What do you have against homosexuals? The same thing you have agains Spore? I personally don’t play the game, but I know people who do. Are you saying only Gays and politically incorrect people play this game?
    I think you’re the only one overreacting to it.

    Evolution’s not real, huh?

    Do you own a dog? Ever seen one? Ever seen, say, a pug?

    They look pretty different from, say, a Lab, or a Husky, right? But they’re all genetically about the same, and they can all be interbred, so we know they’re the same species. What’s more, we know that IF you somehow manage to crossbreed a lab with a pug, you’ll get something that looks a little like both of them, but exactly like neither.

    They’re passing on traits, in just a single generation, and their overall physical characteristics change.

    Wolves also look kind of like huskies, don’t they? Kind of lot. And guess what: You can interbreed those two, even though they’re not the same species! That’s because the evolutionary divergence between Canis lupus and Canis familiaris happened relatively recently, so the species gap can still be crossed and produce stable offspring.

    Domesticated animals PROVE one of the main underlying concepts of evolution. Denying this is like saying there can’t be a forest behind all those trees. Proof of it is living in your house, in your dog, cat, goldfish, whatever. Didn’t you ever wonder why there’s no such thing as a wild chihuahua? It’s because EVOLUTION WORKS. It can be guided by humans, but it WORKS and it’s ALWAYS WORKING.

    Please, don’t kill your pet just because it was created by man and not God.

  320. Evil Evolutioniston 25 Jan 2009 at 7:45 am 320

    This is exactly why people seem to have such a problem with creationists, you claim to be so righteous and non- judgemental (only God can judge, remember?) but you can’t go a day without criticising someone else’s beliefs or choices. For instance, and this is just off the top of my head, calling another church perverse because they ordain homosexuals, or even attacking a video game before getting all your facts straight. I am trying my best to be civil with you here, but I am just so glad I can think for myself and that I have decided not to be a part of this despite what my family believes in.
    I probably shouldn’t be wasting my time on this reply anyway, because this is obviously a joke set up by some hardcore spore fan…

  321. JONon 29 Jan 2009 at 8:25 am 321

    listen theres no point in arguing with religious zealots like you all you do is deny whats in front of you just so you can push religion on other i could care less wether we evolved from single cells or were thought up by a higher power. i think i’m just not going to believe you EVER based on reasons i just made up. hows that feel? when you open your mind to other possibilities then maybe other people would open up theres to your ideas. till then keep pushin your no better than the islamic jihadists we are supposedly fighting

  322. Cheezeon 03 Feb 2009 at 4:48 am 322

    why are you so worked up about this? i agree with evil evolutionist, you cant go acting like your righteous and non-judgmental and then the next second chuck a complete spaz because a good man created a game that he thought would spread joy and fun. You should stop being a homophobic prick and start thinking about the facts. Spore is a fantastic game, and you should feel ashamed for bagging it and saying it and its creator are evil, just because it doesnt fit into your beliefs. Lastly, nobody is offended by this game, you’re alone and wrong in this gigantic, ever-expanding universe filled with creatures that evolved from simple organisms that STILL have a greater brainpower than you.

    I hate god and have butt sex with young boys. When I’m not busy raping nuns and burning bibles (at the same time) I play spore. its a great game where you kill Jesus and feed Christians to lions. You spend the whole game giving god the finger and having drugged up godless anal sex with livestock. It shows the whole sex scenes and lets you bang the same sex god-hating cock monster. Its made to make more people like me. All this is true and it really is evil. its not just a game, made for the fun of it and not to draw beliefs from. It really is anti-god and made to corrupt your kids!

    What the hell? Will Wright attends a church that is one of the most accepting in the country…so he’s a pervert? What the FUCK is a matter with you? Are you mentally unstable? All you use to backup your evidence is that your “Holly Bible” says that it’s true. It’s a book that was written 2000 YEARS AGO. WTF? I respect people who have religion and can put together a decent argument to support their theories. But you? You recite lines of a book that follows “an eye for an eye”. And don’t say that ” it’s not meant to be taken seriously”. who the FUCK are you to decide what’s meant to be taken seriously and whats not? this is what happens when you make it possible for crazy old bitches to broadcast their “idea” on where we came from. All throughout history, science reveals a new discovery, and the church comes up with an excuse to why the bible allows the discovery. I long the day when religion is no longer accepted. im 14 and I hope i live to see that day.

    Will Wright is a blaspheming, satanic, currupt man. He challenges God the almighty supreme being Will Wright’s game, Spore is sinful and evil. They challenge all major religions on earth from christianity all the way to down to judiasm. I wonder if he will go straight to hell. Maybe the muslims in Saudi Arabia are man, if not furious at Will Wright for challenging their god.

    Well no one is perfect, and power can corrupt even the greatest of people. Will Wright is a little corrupt, I’ll admit that, but in some ways, we all have corruption inside us all. So what makes us any better than him? We are all equal. In a way, we are all the same, we are all one.

    I have one thing to add… this is the most memorable quote from the pastor at my church…

    IF YOUR GOD CAN’T DO SOMETHING YOUR GOD IS TO SMALL!!!!

    therefore if your God cannot use evolution as a tool to explain his miracles to man then YOUR GOD IS TO SMALL!

    and one question about creationism God created the world in seven days…. how long is a day in God’s time? And did it every say they were consecutive days? Couldn’t therefore evolution be the power of God between these days?
