Understand my beliefs please

Posted at 8:12 am under Uncategorized

I think part of the problem that is going on here is that the bulk of you are ignorant as to the word of God. I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in. I understand that everyone didn’t have the chance to be taught these things, and learn about God as my family did so if I am going to have this kind of attention I should use it to help teach others about the words of God that helped to shape me into the woman I am today.

Everyone I am sure knows the passage that in the beginning God created heaven and earth. But there is more then just this one that people remember.

In Genesis 1:2 there is more talk about God’s work. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. From this God moved to creating all the creatures, notice there is never talk of creatures ‘evolving’ into other creatures, instead God is able to make the creatures as he will including man.

In Genesis 1:25-27 “25. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
26. Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”

People of science claim that the Earth is the way it is because of millions of years of time and science effecting it. But we are taught and believe that our world is this way and has the aged look because of the flood of Noah. It was the waters covering the Earth on such a grand scale that caused the aging that people of science claim as proof.

But in the Bible we are told in Genesis 6:7 “So the LORD said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth–men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air–for I am grieved that I have made them.””

But the Bible teaches us that God was not done with man. For we were His creation and He then spoke to Noah in Genesis 8:21-27 after the flood.
“21. The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. And never gonna give you up. 22. “Never gonna let you down.” 23.”Never gonna run around and desert you.” 24. “Never gonna make you cry.” 25. “Never gonna say goodbye.” 26. “Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.” 27.”Never truly believe anything you read on the Internet. There will always be cases of Poe’s Law.”

It’s these teachings that I’ve spent my life learning, believing and becoming, that have made me the woman that I am today.

    seriously mate, fuck the fuck off will you…..

    Spore is an incredible achievement of interactive entertainment that should be applauded and heralded as such.

    The sheer scope, vision and scale of the game is beyond anything ever, so yeah, stop being a prick and actually learn to appreciate something worth appreciating.

    You are a bigot. How dare you try and push your tripe on everyone else? You don’t see those believing in Evolution calling for the Bible and other creationist texts to be banned. But no, you have to take on something of an ‘elitist’ status by condescending others views and beliefs. A true christian would understand and accept that not everyone will agree with their take on the worlds creation - but instead you try and push your view down the fine readers of this sites throats.

    I am not christian - but I accept the christian faith and don’t go around undermining it.

    You are a digrace.

    OMG, I thought this was a serious site until I saw the quote from Rick Astley’s song at the end….fantastic hoax, really cracked me up!

  4. godon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:26 am 4

    i dont understand you, because everything i made is great.
    i made humans and humans made spore, so spore is great.

    greetings from heaven to everything and everyone.

    Okey i didnt even read this whole mess you created but seriously, shut the fuck up. I have more faith in this game than in your stupid fairtyfale aka christianity.

    You are fighting a GAME. A game! Why? Oh, why?

  8. Is this a joke?on 11 Sep 2008 at 8:28 am 8

    I seriously dont get it.

    Spore is a game. Who cares if it is right or wrong about the creation of the world?
    It’s a game. Meant to be fun. And funny only.

    And what if I would like start to whine. Hey all of you believers are so wrong, stop all religious games… they offend me and so on. It would be silly.

    This is just silly.

    Maybe the creators of spore believe in evolution maybe they dont, maybe they simply just thought that it would be a great game idea. It is. Though the game is crap in my opinion.

    The thing is. It doesnt matter. You want your believes protected and respected, then for crying out loud, respect other peoples believes to.

  9. Darwinon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:28 am 9

    Lol you are one twisted psycho. Ever heard of evolutionary theory or is your sight so blinded by your so-called-God who has an answer to everything? I thought Jack Thompson was pathetic, but apparently it can indeed get even worse.

    Get. A. Life.

  10. Jakeon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:28 am 10

    Everything you say is based entirely on the assumption that the Bible is an accurate and irrefutable record of the word of God.

    What if it isn’t? Where does that leave you if the Bible is a work of fiction? How will you feel when your entire world comes crashing down around your ears because you finally realise that your entire life has been based on a lie?

    To be honest, at first I found myself annoyed at the nonsense you’re writing, but now I just feel pity for you, that you’ve based your entire existance on something very, very flimsy.

    Good luck with that, say ‘Hi’ to God from me next time you talk to him, tell him I’ll be along soon. Thanks.

  12. oogleon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:29 am 12

    Kid, just because you were taught something as a child does not make it true! Perhaps those well-meaning parents and teachers of yours were wrong. I understand that there are strong social pressures supporting your positions - but you have to ask yourself, “Does this theology sound remotely plausible”?

  13. meon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:29 am 13

    Ignorance is bliss…but for me this is plain insanity / obsession.

    [..] So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand [...] Clear? So If I write down that George Bush is an alien…that clears up a lot too?

    Well I guess you don’t have the will, and reason (since for you its the truth), to really open your eyes to see what’s real, definable, fact. Well as long as you aren’t bothering other people with your dreamworld its fine by me, but leave the people in the real world alone.

    Don’t try to force others to live in your world, let everyone be his own. But I guess there would be a lot less wars and stuff if people could actually do that…

  14. xron 11 Sep 2008 at 8:29 am 14

    Without too much knowledge about the game to start with other than Leo Laporte et al. discussing it on their webcast, I’d think I have to agree with them that Spore is not an evolutionary game per se.
    An evolutionary game would be very boring, because you wouldn’t have to do anything besides wait and see what happens. As I gathered, in spore you are required to make decisions about the direction in which your creature develops. That to me sounds more like an ‘intelligent design’ kind of environment than evolution.
    If you’s like to see what real evolutionary simulations would be, check out this site: lottolab.org.

    oh and the bible is written by humans.
    so its great too but it is not explaining how everything truly is, its just a book.
    if you want to know the real thing listen to your soul.

  22. EMarkson 11 Sep 2008 at 8:36 am 22

    Here’s my problem with this website. It seems anytime anything comes up that even insinuates that what the bible says might not be true, the Christians jump up like a bunch of over zealous crusaders of god and feel like they have to strike it down.

    Spore is a videogame. It supports the theory of evolution in a creative way. A theory by the way that is supported by science which is based on facts and not just a book somebody wrote to maintain order in a time of chaos.

    It is an unfortunate time proven truth that religion and open-mindedness do not go hand in hand. And for the record, I would like to point out that I find it funny and ironic that you call what Will Wright did “brainwash”.

FUCK OFF!!!

  26. Lanaon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:37 am 26

    You said you were raised with such believes. But it does not mean that you cannot overlook them when you become an adult. Noone tells you that you should abandon your religion but is this too difficult to open your mind for other things?

    As an example: The co-worker of my husband grew up in a religious family, they were visiting church every Sunday, preying before dinner… the usual stuff. That man had(and has) an elder brother, who, at the age of twelve announced that he refuses to go to church. His parents shrugged their shoulders and approoved. The guy, being the age of eight, immediatly jumped in and said he does not want to do it too. On what he got answer: “Wait till you are the age of your brother and then we will hear you out.” My point being, a teenager overlooked his faith, even though he was being raised in religion and opened his mind. Why can’t you?

    Now, you say that it is “clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science”. I beg your pardon… Clear? You read it in a book, created ages ago, in a time where people were ignorant and thought rain and thunder are anger/gift of a higher being. Book can carry any information, where is a proof? On the contrary, science brings us at least evidence. Evidence of evolution, progress. Bible brings us nothing exept for fancy words that we are ough to believe just because we Must Believe.

    As a disclamer, I do not want to bash faith in general, people are entitled of their opinions. It’s just that exactly yours rubs me wrong because of its narrow-mindness and inability to accept there may be other truths.

    Forfive me for my grammar mistakes, I am not a native speaker.

    The author is just another brainwashed psycho who didnt get beaten up enough as a kid, leave him alone.

  30. Martinon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:39 am 30

    Lets say your god does exist (there is a possibilty, no proof, but its possible) and he hates evolution…. Why hasn’t he banned it then!? How can you talk about banning a game that just replicates something that happens in every day life (evolution). You cannot deny the existance of evolution anymore because it is observed every day. Evolution is the change of gene frequencies between generations in a population. If evolution doesn’t exist, then how do you explain dog breeding, or crop selection, or more natural every day examples such as drug resistent bacteria?

    And really anti-spore, how are you going to try to say something is fact and true just because a thousand year old book says it is. Hell, if thats the case, shouldn’t everyone be spouting greek mythology as fact, or perhaps we should all be preparing for the yearly virgin sacrifices that need to be completed before autumn harvest!!!!

  31. Jon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:39 am 31

    You quote the bible as if that means that what it is saying is true. There is no evidence for any of what you are saying.

    Science didn’t create the world, science isn’t a thing that wonders round creating rational phenomenom at will. Science explains to us how the world works and why it works, it reasons and it is rational. The bible merely makes unfounded statements that make no sense and have nothing to back them up.

    In some ways this blog amuses me but in alot of ways it makes me sad and scared that people can be so ignorant and gullible about how the world works.

  32. a spore playeron 11 Sep 2008 at 8:40 am 32

    oh my god.. how poor can you be… spore is only a game
    really… go play it yourself and experience it

    and however, it may be controdictive against the bible. but the bible is only a book
    written by humans with too much fantasy.
    get over it: THERE IS NO GOD!

  33. Phreakon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:41 am 33

    It is rather stupid if a modern religion ignores evolution no matter what is written in books your believes rely on. The human race is quite ignorant, dumb and also numb. Not enough that we are wasting our planet and killing the animals. No one remembers the time _when_ the holy books were written and no one can imagine why that was written was written. Believe whatever you want but don’t be so ignorant to tell others that evolution is just a stupid inventment by religioness scientists. For me there is no god and nothing afterlife. You musn’t agree me but you have to tolerate and accept it.

    Your site must be the strangest ever. Everyone is free to have their own opinion about god, but how can you be so sure your opinion is the right one? What if it aint no god at all or if the hindu belief is the right one. If god exists he created the maker of spore, remember that. Your path seems very dangerous. For me jesus and god is like a fairytale and you cant proff me wrong, santa claus is as likely to be real.

  37. Martinon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:43 am 37

    The bible also says women should stay in the home doing housework and popping out children while following the man’s orders. Maybe the host is on to something!……

  38. Matthiason 11 Sep 2008 at 8:44 am 38

    In Genesis 1:2 there is more talk about God’s work. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

    well you name it god, the science name it big bang. the result is the same. our world.
    and science never claimed to be the one, who made the world.
    i would see it this way. the spirit of god or god himself ( the difference does not matter) are some kind of power we don’t or at least didn’t understand in the times the bible was written. i actually think, that the science today even don’t understand the power behind the big bang.
    what i belief is, that the power, which was behind the bigbang ( that this big bang and the evolution afterwards has taken place is something out of question for me) maybe that “person” you call god.
    the point is in the time when the old testament was written no one had known about physics and the reaction between elements. so they made up a “story” about the beginning of the world. but today it should be seen as a methaphor for what actually happend billions of years ago.
    if you follow completely the genesis of the bible the earth would be something about 4000 years old. so the highculture of egypte, which was 8000 years ago, did not exists?
    don’t you think that it is a bit out of proportion to deny that this culture did exist?

    i’m not telling you to burn in hell or go fuck yourself or whatever. it is your belief and you may be happy with it. you should just think about what you belief and think about some facts you can’t really ignore while thinking about god an evolution.
    god (allah, jahwe, whatever names there are) maybe actually be the cause of evolution but it did not take place the way the bible says it for obvious reasons.

    and what you should not do is blame other for their believes. and this is exactly what you do. you blame the creator of spore for his believe in evolution and his believe in god or his membership in a church that has different believes from yours.

    you should never forget that wars ( with millions of deads) where fougth but for one stupid reason: believe in one god or another.

    this did not change till today!
    so don’t wonder about the comments of people who want to see you burn in hell.
    you attack their believe in something and they did what ever army would do when under attack they fire back. with the difference that these people here would never do you actually harm.

    you think sim city was a great game but spore is not because spore is “against” the bible.
    in what of the bible stands that you are allowed to send hurricans or godzilla over a city? i don’t think there is such a part.
    one last think. spore is a game. if you don’t like don’t play it.
    there are much worse games out for children than this one.
    i would prefer for my child to play spore instead of counterstrike, call of duty and so on.
    creating something is always better than to destroy something. don’t you think?

  39. Brianon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:44 am 39

    Sites like yours are what make the internet so great - freedom of expression. Your words are heartfelt and provocative, forcing thousands of people to consider their positions on religion and intelligent design.

    This is the same reason why games like Spore are so great. By my count, Spore has invoked the wrath of both Christians and Atheists alike, and for opposite reasons! That’s pretty amazing since the game’s premise is open-ended enough that it’s all a matter of interpretation.

    I’m an atheist but I appreciate your website as a means to freely convey your beliefs, as is your right. I also respect that you don’t sanitize, modify, or delete others’ comments as other Christian fundie websites have done to me in the past for speaking my mind.

    Peace and respect. Don’t let a little video game get you worked up. It’s just a work of fantasy. Some people like to latch on to works of fantasy and treat them like they’re real, but people like you and I know better.

  40. Blue.Sharkon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:45 am 40

    Hey people! It’s a game! If you believe that humans on Earth were created by God, then OK. But on other planets there CAN be evolution. By the way i believe in evolution too, because it’s stupid to think that God made many versions of human and we are his last “work”. What about dinosaurs? God placed their bones into the ground to try our faith? Ha! Come on!

  41. Free Mindon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:46 am 41

    People, there is no sense in trying to start a discussion with religious fanatics on this subject. Centuries of manipulation and indoctrination by the church has made it impossible for them to comprehend the fact that nobody really knows anything about creation.

  42. name (required)on 11 Sep 2008 at 8:47 am 42

    Seriously, you just debunked your beliefs:

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.” - You just take whatever crap your parents fed you and do not reflect on it. That is truly ignorant.

  43. Martinon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:47 am 43

    Brian I object!!! SPORE HAS TO BE REAL!!!! I saw it in the store the other day and was told I could own a copy of my own if I gave the store person money. He looked shady though, so I decided to come on here first just to verify that it was real. Now off to give the man my money and hopefully find a real copy of Spore in my posession!!!

  44. Martinon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:48 am 44

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.”

    Same position the KKK and Nazi’s take.

  45. Felgardon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:48 am 45

    wouldn’t one say that this is the best explanation to intelligent design according to the bible and it allows one to actually accept Darwinism.

    god sat down stared to make the animals then he noticed that some animals was lacking in somethings and made other animals to cover that and when one species no longer could survive due to something happened he then made changes which allowed those animals to survive.

    one only need to take one look around and see intelligent design in work. You are even looking at something like that right now whilst reading this.

  46. aon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:50 am 46

    the bible is just full of bullshit. we all know that it isn’t correct. only fanatics like you could believe in the “words of god”. just as an information: the bible was writen and translated several times by men.

  50. Maximuson 11 Sep 2008 at 8:51 am 50

    Hi there.

    First of all, are you serious?
    Spore is a game, a creation for our entertainment that embraces the evolution theory.
    People who belivie in the evolution theory did not complain when Black And White was created and we were playing as God himself. Gamers around the world loves this game and it is no suprise what so ever that some christian fanatic have to complain. The evolution theory is the most logical explination to the creation of life here on earth.

    Did you know that christianity is built on a long line of other religions?
    That things like “The last supper”, “The ressurection” and “Easter” had been included in alot of other religions before it was written in the Bible?

    I hate to say it, but religion is the joke of the millinium.
    It’s only purpose today is to give people in need hope, everything else is bad about it.

    Christianity should be alowed to exist but it should not have the right to preach about things they are to stupid to understand.

    Now im going to play Spore, the closest thing to reality there is.

  51. Peteron 11 Sep 2008 at 8:51 am 51

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.”

    So what you believe is true because you were brainwashed as a kid? Not a strong base for truth is it?

  52. cJwon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:52 am 52

    “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

    Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

    haha even though ive never read the bible im prety sure it wouldnt have something like what you wrote.

    27.”Never truly believe anything you read on the Internet. There will always be cases of Poe’s Law.”

    And if god really cared about us humans and earth why would he create 100’s of billions of planets and galaxies if he only wanted to focus on us?

    and isnt it really strange that in the last 1000 years or so with the rapid devolopment of science, we have yet to see any reincarnations of messiah’s or prophet’s?

    The funny thing is that religion is only possible because of evolution. A strange mutation caused brain damage that occurs in humans that give them the strange ability to have moments of faith.

  58. DevastFrankon 11 Sep 2008 at 8:55 am 58

    All this stuff this nice, but do you realise that Bible has been written by people many years ago, who believed in myths as that earth is flat and that earth is center of space? Do you realise that evolution is a natural process that has been running since life started to exist in form of proteins millions years ago? Now tell, me - WHERE is your god now??? C’mon god, send a lighting aganist me if evolution is a lie!

    Let´s take it other way… Prove us that theory of creation is true! How can you prove it? Bible? But bible is only a book written by some people. Just like Koran and holy books/scrolls of other religions. You are also saying not everyone had a chance to hear word of god - I don’t fuckin need to! I’ve grown in modern Europe and our political system is NOT affected by religion. We don’t have fanatical christians here as you do, and we support SCIENCE. If you want to believe, then you can, BUT PLEASE - DO NOT CALL ME AN IGNORANT!!!

  67. Would be Hilarious, Instead is Sadon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:00 am 67

    I’m amazed by how ignorant you are Mr. Admin fellow.

    Why must all religious people so desperately cling to their notion of a small god incapable of spanning and encompassing all reaches of science? Is it not just as possible for god to have designed evolution as a beautifully simplistic way of creating all species?

    Honestly, stop trying to cram the entire world into your little god box. It doesn’t work. Instead, open your eyes to the beauty of science. Science is more intricate, beautiful, and more awe inspiring than Abraham’s God could ever be.

  68. Vaughnon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:01 am 68

    BTW - If you want to spread knowledge hit a library. I’d recommend some reading in the areas of geology, human psychology, the study of ancient religions, the creation of the christian church, and hold on now… studies in the area of textual criticism of the bible.
    That last one may sting a bit, but no one said medicine had to taste good.

  69. Martinon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:02 am 69

    I’m sorry, I really don’t mind people believing in God and such, but what I can’t stand is if such people as you over-react and try to MAKE you believe in God….after all this is just a game and it doesn’t really teach you anything about evolution in detail. You’re wasting your time.

  72. adamon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:03 am 72

    I just want to say that your arrogance is amusing. I love how you create this negative framing of everyone that disagrees with your views.

    Why can’t everyone just keep an open mind about this stuff or at least do what I do and consider both sides of the argument and have tolerance for people that view things differently to you. I’m sorry but the whole concept of science is that things are tested and proven. They don’t necessarily disprove god or his works or anything just because they don’t mesh perfectly with the literal translation of the bible.
    There is no conspiracy among scientists to undermine the church or your beliefs, I can tell you now most of them couldn’t care less and don’t even think of religious beliefs when they carry about their work (ie. it’s unbiased and pure observation and reasoning)

    Even then, I’m sure you have it in you to just accept Spore as a game/simulation of the theory of evolution without it being some sort of grand plot against God or negligence by christians, perhaps they just keep a more open mind to these things than you do.

  73. Martinon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:04 am 73

    Well, anyhow, since you always whine about what kind of ‘cruel’ ’sexual’ ‘whatever’ creatures you can create with the Spore Editor i hope you keep in mind that you could say the same thing about every way to express a visual concept (damn you playdo!! Or Paint…. or Adobe Photoshop CS3!!!).

    And as you know, god has a good taste for humor, just think of the platypus.

    So, hell what, keep on your good work, keep us laughing and make a greeeeat PR Work for EA / Spore / Will Wright.

    I was reading through various user comments about the statements you made on this site and it seems that almost everyone on the comments section was able to disprove your poorly investigated claims quickly. You really should ask yourself why you are even starting off new topics, if you are not even able to find reasonable answers to good points readers made on the previous ones. I guess bringing your child to school and let it have breakfast should not stop you from joining your very own argument and defending the points you made on a rational level. But your answers, if given, are always underwhelming at best. It seems that more than 90% of the people on this site are disproving you every time you make one of your lackluster statements and all we see afterwards is seeing you removing yourself from a hopeless venture.

    Also, since you want to be a role model for young people, stop hating on gays und show some grace of charity instead. Thank you.

    So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science.

    Ohh….now it al makes sense to me, and it is written so it must be true. How scientific….i didn’t know you went to so much trouble to find out about the creation of life on earth and earth itself.

  95. Sachaon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:27 am 95

    Please take the title of your own blog post to heart. Understand that YOUR beliefs do not necessary have to be the believes of others. I don’t say either of them is more right than the other. That’s the whole point of the word “belief”. You can’t proof belief. For me personally evolution makes more sense than creationism but I don’t go out and insult everybody who believes in creationism.

  96. Silenton 11 Sep 2008 at 9:28 am 96

    Let me see if I got this right…
    Your proof for the fact that god created the world… was that the bible says it, that’s pretty fucking weak, you believe something because someone else told you it was true, logistically how can there exist one all powerful being who exists before everything else? Everything without fail must have a beginning, if there is a god the same holds true, god had to come from somewhere, but no you put your faith in a book that’s been rewritten so many times, how the hell can you know if it’s true anymore?
    Allow me to put it this way, the bible says god created animals “according to their kind” now if this is the direct word of god, that means that there were pre-established ideas of what these “kinds” of animals are, which adds support to the theory that god had to have come from somewhere.
    And saying that god’s power will beat the billions in revenue, show me this power, you’r working on the idea that some guy in the clouds -wants- you to protest a videogame, if god is so powerful then why does he need you to do it? Why doesn’t he just smite EA and be done with it? C’mon he used to do it all the time in that bible you keep shoving in our faces.
    You are not a messenger of god, you are not doing “his work” you are not saving anything, you are just showing how stupid and moronic people can be, you see you’ve been brainwashed into thinking some magical being will be there for you, you’ve been made to believe that it’s okay that things go wrong cause you have your belief and your belief says there’s a magical land after we die, don’t blindly accept everything just cause some guy in a dress tells you it’s what some figure in the sky wants, question everything cause that little warm feeling you get when something goes good? That’s not god’s love, that’s just a fucking feeling.

    Christianity sprung to favour when the masses were living in abject squalor, how do you keep people happy when they have nothing? Tell them there’s an afterlife, you have been conned.

  97. Carlon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:28 am 97

    What I find Most annoying is you complain over a game that speaks of evolution and because you don’t like it you decide to create a website and essentialy Parade around insulting it because its not “YOUR VIEW”

    I accept you believe in god I accept you don’t believe in Evolution yet do you see me running around making website insulting your religion because I dont belive in it?
    Because I believe in Evolution?

    NO you don’t

    Everyone is entitles to their belief I see programs saying how god created everything, I see programs of how man evovled yet I don’t go making a capaign against the program speaking of god because its YOUR it’s view your CHOICE..

    God gave mankind something angels desired.
    *Freedom to make a choice be it good or bad*

    we have the freedom to choose to believe in evolution or not we have the freedom to believe in God or not, Thats what he or she wanted and inteded for us.
    To give us Choices your not here to guide, us if I so choose to start having a belief in god then so be it but untill that day comes I have made my choice as god has given me.

    so end this silly website all your going to achieve is humiliate yourself.
    Just get over it and accept we have choice thats what makes us unique and if your belive in god so much you will believe that this is part of *his/her* decision to let us have freedom and choices
    Even if you don’t agree your not one to preach how its wrong

    on a side note.

    *IT’S a GAME*
    p.s which god gave as the freedom to make :)

  100. This is depressing.on 11 Sep 2008 at 9:29 am 100

    And this, my friend, is why you fail. You base your entire belief system on what you have been told is right, rather than making informed judgements for yourself.

    If it were written in your bible that all men were created with blue feet, would you believe that, despite the obvious evidence that men, in fact, do not have blue feet? Or would you unerringly fight to the death to defend your belief that a man’s clearly pinkish feet are in fact, blue?

    That is the closest to what you are doing now that I can come to in an example. In the face of clear evidence that your bible is in error in many, many places, you still take the bible as word for word truth. The bible is a wonderful little storybook, but near to every event in it is ridiculous and impossible. Particularly looking at the story of the flood here. You can’t seriously tell me that you believe that tale is true?

    I’ll get your padded cell ready, the nice men in white coats will look after you.

    On another note, you tell me you are a family woman. Please, do not force this tripe on your child. Let them make their own, informed decision. Let them be taught science, and let them read your bible. Then they may decide to be informed, or clueless like their mother.

  101. KCon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:31 am 101

  103. Shawnon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:34 am 103

    I grew up Catholic. Never really stayed a good Catholic. And oddly enough nothing has changed except for having my Sunday’s free. I still believe in God. I believe that he is good and has blessed mankind with free choice. I also believe that everyone has a right to choose a faith and live by it’s standards so long as those standards do not harm, hinder or in any way judge others.
    You choose the word Ignorance and I have to say I chuckled a bit. Ignorance is a lack of knowledge or disregard of the facts, whereas science is anything but. When someone shows you an equation for life and can prove to you that it’s true, and you simply choose not to accept it then it is you who has become ignorant and stubborn.
    What is so hard about believing in evolution AND God at the same time?

  104. flappieon 11 Sep 2008 at 9:35 am 104

    I know another book that states frodo threw the ring into mount doom and thus destroying sauron… why don’t we celebrate that incredible feat… we don’t because it is written down in a book.

    Puedo asegurarte que me he leído la Biblia y que conozco la palabra de Dios. Por eso la considero la estupidez más absoluta de este planeta. No crea más que mentes fanáticas como la tuya. Al final, tanta paz y amor cristiana se acaban tornando en un odio irracional hacia todo lo que no obedece a vuestros dogmas, odio y rencor. Si Jesús levantase la cabeza, se avergonzaría del cristianismo actual.

    Vive y deja vivir. ¿No crees en el evolucionismo? Bien por ti. Yo sí lo hago, me resulta mucho más coherente que un hombrecillo creando mundos en 7 días.
    Y no por ello critico a las personas que creen, ni creo blogs anti-creacionismo.

    Dudo muchísimo que leas esto, porque ni está en tu idioma ni dice lo que quieres oír, pero da igual, este es el testimonio de alguien que no ve en ti más que un fanático con el cerebro lavado por San Pedro.

    Lo siento, pero tu alma está perdida. Esa es la verdad de las religiones: Te absorven el alma, juegan con ella, seduciendola con promesas d evida eterna.

    First off, are you really that stupid?
    Everytime, we the gamers bring out a game, you like many others, such as Jack Thompson or some other stupid religous nut, decide that becasue it doesn’t conform to your “rules” you belive you have the right to attack the game.
    Honestly, are you that stupid?
    You don’t even have the game for crying out loud.
    its people like you who make me sick.
    Games are not meant too be controversial or attack religon, there just entertainment.
    Serioulsy how the hell does someone learn about darwin or god through a game?
    Its a frigging simulator you twat
    I could go after religon right now and rip your god apart but Ill give u a break for once.

    Well, your arguement would be legitimite of the Bible wasnt fiction, unfortunatly, it is, so according to you.

    Since the bible say it, and you believe the bible to be 100% truthful, then science cannot be the true answer.

    Scientologists believe that the evil lord Zenu (sp?) sent aliens from his over populated plantet to inhabit earth (basically).

    There is even a science fiction book to go along with it.

    Are you going to hell?

    Most religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion wont all religious people go to hell?

    I just want to say one thing, I am also Christian, but I believe in Evolution, by a simple fact, the biblia was written by men, even if it is God guide their ideas to write it, our minds were “fragile” at the time, were unable to understand the complexity of life, then we were told things like “The man came from dust” or “the earth was created in 7 days” because as we intender des something like the evolution of a cell (or worse an atom ) When not see it or Billions of years on the planet? So trying to explain it created such theories as of metaphors,. Jesus said in metaphors, almost nothing was said that up to understand without at least reflect. This is the mistake of the church, the enves of trying to evolve and learn new things to do in the past. God also says it is not wrong disperdiçar our gifts? Why can not we use the most he has given us …. the ability to think.
    PS: forgive me if my English this horrible, I am not ignorant, is that I am Brazilian and my English is not very good for writing a text even I used the tool of languages google to translate it.

    I think the problem is not that the people visiting this site are ignorant to the word of god, but that you’re blinded by your faith and in your rabid zealotry you’re trying to prove that a VIDEO GAME is playing center stage in some grand, anti-religious conspiracy.

    And you keep doing it even though so many religious people have come here and posted that they think you’re nutty. I myself spent my childhood in the Catholic school system, have read the bible (old and new testament) more times than I can count. I also happen to think you’re batshit insane.

    You’ve read about a game and you’re going through an elaborate knee-jerk reaction via this site. You never played it, you merely read that it was based on the idea of evolving a character and without stressing your brain any further you surmised that EVOLUTION IS THE DEVIL THEREFORE THIS GAME IS EVIL!!!

    You’re a nutbar. You’re the type of person who makes it not so hard to believe that ‘witches’ were burned at the stake, heretics were tortured with hot pokers and thousands of ‘non-believers’ were slaughtered in religious wars. Thankfully the rest of the civilized world has mostly EVOLVED to a more rational and sane way of life, rather than this sort of religious extremism.

    Stop looking at this fuckwits website.

    He’s just using this blog to make money. He probably played the game and thought it was cool. Realized the touchy situation, and knew it would bring TONS of people on the site.

    He’s a douchebag, ignore him, and never return to this website.

    Biglol, why would we understand your beliefs if you don’t believe ours?

  133. fs2on 11 Sep 2008 at 9:54 am 133

    Wooh someone’s ignorant here… Science didn’t create the heavens and the earth, neither did God. You know, there was this thing called the Big Bang that called everything into existence, just because we still don’t fully understand it, doesn’t mean there’s some deity behind it all pushing buttons.

    And about calling Spore and Will Wright evil (who gives a rat’s ass if he belongs to a church that approves of homosexuality, there shouldn’t be anything to approve, homosexuality isn’t something weird or strange, just because some guy who - supposedly - lived a few thousand years ago thought so)? Sh*t… Now that’s ignorance. If you like some quack-explanation that poses as science (but definitely isn’t) and claims to show how everything started, well that’s your right, don’t take your ignorance out on something like a video-game.

    About not everyone being able to gotten to know God in the way you did, well I for one am very, very happy about this. I live my life as good as I can do, I don’t discriminate, I don’t condem people who do belief (only when they’re ignorant f*cks) and I don’t live a life of crime. My parents gave me a choice to seek out what there is in the world. I’ve read the Bible (old & new testament), I’ve read the Koran; and you know what? All I found were a whole lot of stories, some good, some just plain gross. Nothing more.

    You know what you should do? Don’t get your kid that game, better yet, throw out the computer alltogether, throw out the radio and the tv (oh my god, the garbage you see and hear on there), keep him out of school and get him home-schooled… That’ll straighten him out just fine.

    It’s just nice to now there are f*cktards like you in this world, you provide those of us who are able to think rationally with great humour!

    Dear AntiSpore Admin

    I would appreciate if you took the time to read this message. This was taken from the msnbc news website:

    —————————————————

    Pope Benedict XVI said the debate raging in some countries — particularly the United States and his native Germany — between creationism and evolution was an “absurdity,” saying that evolution can coexist with faith.

    The pontiff, speaking as he was concluding his holiday in northern Italy, also said that while there is much scientific proof to support evolution, the theory could not exclude a role by God.

    “They are presented as alternatives that exclude each other,” the pope said. “This clash is an absurdity because on one hand there is much scientific proof in favor of evolution, which appears as a reality that we must see and which enriches our understanding of life and being as such.”

    —————————————————

    Please understand that evolution in not an attack on Christianity or God. Please stop talking about people who teach evolution as if they are less good people who need your prayers to ‘convert’ and save themselves.

  143. ADon 11 Sep 2008 at 10:01 am 143

    ok this was a hoax. Nice one

  144. TheTruethon 11 Sep 2008 at 10:03 am 144

    To be honest, you were quoted on http://www.golem.de with the following text:
    “If you create a creature which does not work well, who can’t eat, fight or move fast, you have a problem to survive”.
    Well, isn’t that exactly like reality? If you were born as a handicapped, you have a problem to survive. And to me, it seems as if you, with your limited mind and view of the world, are somehow handicapped yourself. Spore is a game, like football, like tennis … and if you want to play football but you have problems with your legs, you won’t succeed. If you want to play tennis without arms, it won’t work!
    I do trust in god as most of people on earth do. And if am right, isn’t there written in the bible, that god let men live by them selves? So god gave us the right to do whatever we want. He even gave us the right to do things like hurting people or killing people, because we CAN do it. If god wouldn’t want us to fight, to kill, to die or to play and invent video games, why did he let us do this? If he’s against it, we’ll feal his wrath sooner or later, so who cares?

    “In Genesis 1:2 there is more talk about God’s work. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

    So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. From this God moved to creating all the creatures, notice there is never talk of creatures ‘evolving’ into other creatures, instead God is able to make the creatures as he will including man. ”

    That did nothing and proved nothing.
    Shut up.

  152. Antonon 11 Sep 2008 at 10:05 am 152

    So, just because a book tells you some “thing” called God. There are books much older then the bibel, books from the myan`s that tells us about the earth`s cycle around the sun, and how magnetic fields influence how things on this planet works.

    Im a firm beliver in evolution. I belive that we were evolved into human beings, not because i like the way it sounds, but because its the most believeable, proved and frankly the most logical explenation.
    But thinking that we were put on this earth by some superior being who created everything and anything (sounds very familiar). And to think that he writes just ONE book about It. ONE book on how this world was created, how we should live our lifes. But doesn`t mention anything about ANYTHING that we didn`t know before?

    If THAT doesn`t make you question anything about “the lord”`s BS world vision, then you don’t have the intelectual capacity to, or be allowed to, raise child in this world.

    With all due respect, I have to express my concerns with your creation of this site. Spore is a videogame of the type commonly referred to as a “god game” that allows the player to basically take the viewpoint of God.
    As a Christian, and believer in 6 day creation, I have no problems with Spore. Sure, it struck me as an off comment when I heard the commercial about creavolutionism. I’m not that easily offended however, and I don’t see Wil Wright as someone who is trying to subvert our beliefs and deceive our children. It is up to parents to teach their kids what they believe, and what is true and not. It is also up to the parents to teach their kids how to deal with things that irritate them, and creating a website that blows things so greatly out of proportion, IMO, is not it.
    I respect your ability of free speech. That is your right and your freedom to take advantage of. However, I think you are doing more harm than help when it comes to this matter.

    To everyone else who has responded here, you guys need to grow up. Everyone has a right to believe what they want. Sure, you also have free speech and this website has invited you to made snide remarks in regards to the Christian faith, but the way you respond makes me believe that a Christian came into your home and murdered your family while you watched. Seriously, calm down, stop cursing, and take your hate speech elsewhere. If you think all Christians fit into the extreme mold that is prevalant in the media and internet you are wrong. Do some thinking before posting, because really you are no better than those you wish to make fun of.

  154. FreedomFighteron 11 Sep 2008 at 10:05 am 154

    it always surprises me how much people want to restrain eachother in their opinions… what even happened to freedom of opinion, speech, religion, and so on

    I think I would like the game, and I can accept that someone else does not
    I can also accept that someone else want to write about what is not good about a game
    and if I really disagree to the point that I get emotionally ‘touched’ I’ll just have to accept that, that is freedom of press (or speech, or opinion). it is also thee freedom to disagree

    dear admin, I totally disagree with your opinion about the game, I also disagree with your opinion about evolution and what is bad for kids and we wil absolutely disagree about so much more (you’ll probably hate harry potter too, I like him). But I am glad I live in a world in which we can disagree and I get to raise my kids in the way I want and so can you.

    My only hope is that people like you (and I mean that in a friendly way) can accept my freedom and accept that you have no right to demand that people like me must live the way you want us to.

    You may try to convince me not to buy and play a game like this, but never-ever forbid me to do so!

    Belief in God is not incompatible with acceptance of science, such as evolution. That’s the problem I have with how you were raised. Chapter 1 of Genesis wasn’t meant to be a scientific paper. At the time it was written, human beings would have been incapable of understanding evolution, and it wasn’t the point.

  169. Mr Panon 11 Sep 2008 at 10:16 am 169

    You really have left me with no choice… Brace yourself.

    I will now point out some vital huge errors in your latest post:

    Genesis 1:2 “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”
    - The earth had a name, and it had a face. It existed, god just meerly gave it a more humbled appearance

    Genesis 1:25 “God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.”
    - By using the words “according to their kinds”, that indicates that they already had existed or had been conceived to have existed and had preset behavioural patterns that god could not influence

    Genesis 1:25 “…And God saw that it was good”
    - If he saw that it was good then why did he have to destroy everything with the great flood?

    Genesis 1:26 “Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, OVER ALL THE EARTH”
    - Man to rule over the earth, not god (and god said that so it must be true…)

    Genesis 1:27 “So God created man in his own image”
    - So I was right about god being a horrible, cruel person. After all, look at what humanity has done to itself and the world we live in. Surely this isn’t the work of a god, more of a devil… Is god really Satan?

    Genesis 6:7 “So the LORD said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth–men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air–for I am grieved that I have made them.””
    - So he really must’ve been wrong when he said in Genesis 1:25 “And God saw that it was good” I thought god was never wrong..? Also, if as the bible states “God created man in his own image”, he must hate himself seeing that he essencially destoyed himself, as we were an image of god?

    Genesis 8:21 “The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood.”
    - But if we were made in god’s image, surely it is god himself who’s heart is evil and not our own?

    I think I’m starting to work out a lot more how this god bloke works…

  177. catterflyon 11 Sep 2008 at 10:24 am 177

    From your own blog, and in response:
    In Genesis 1:2 there is more talk about God’s work. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

    But, “God” contradicts himself through the Bible - the word of “God”; Genesis…
    God creates light and separates light from darkness, and day from night, on the first day. Yet he didn’t make the light producing objects (the sun and the stars) until the fourth day (1:14-19). 1:3-5
    Plants are made on the third day before there was a sun to drive their photosynthetic processes (1:14-19). 1:11
    “He made the stars also.” God spends a day making light (before making the stars) and separating light from darkness; then, at the end of a hard day’s work, and almost as an afterthought, he makes the trillions of stars. 1:16 “And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.” 1:17

    The Bible talks about a world-wide flood that covered earth in 5.5 miles of water and killed everything, yet we know it never happened. That is clear from the archaeological record.

    The belief in “god” seems to be ubiquitous through the ages.

    We know, for example, that the ancient Egyptians believed in their gods so fervently that they built massive structures like the Great Pyramid — still today one of the largest and most enduring human constructions ever created. Despite that fervor, however, we know with complete certainty today that the Egyptian gods were imaginary. We don’t build pyramids anymore and we do not mummify our leaders.

    More recently we know that tens of millions of Romans worshiped Jupiter and his friends, and to them they built magnificent temples. The ruins of these temples are popular tourist attractions even today. Yet we know with complete certainty that these gods were imaginary because no one worships Zeus any more.

    Much more recently, we know that the Aztec civilization believed in their gods so intensely that they constructed huge temples and pyramids. In addition, Aztecs were so zealous that they were sacrificing hundreds of human beings to their gods as recently as the 16th century. Despite the intensity, however, we know today that these gods were completely imaginary. The Aztecs were insane to be murdering people for their gods. Killing a person has no effect on rainfall or anything else. We all know that. If the Aztec gods were real, we would still be offering sacrifices to them.

    Today’s “God” is just as imaginary as were these historical gods. The fact that millions of people worship a god is meaningless.

    The “God” and the “Jesus” that Christians worship today are actually amalgams formed out of ancient pagan gods. The idea of a “virgin birth”, “burial in a rock tomb”, “resurrection after 3 days” and “eating of body and drinking of blood” had nothing to do with Jesus. All of the rituals in Christianity are completely man-made. Christianity is a snow ball that rolled over a dozen pagan religions. As the snowball grew, it freely attached pagan rituals in order to be more palatable to converts.

    The Bible is FULL of contradictions and irregularities. Is man perfect? No. Yet he is created in god’s image…. so either god is not perfect; or we were not created in his image.

    And finally… for those reading the comments who would like a laugh (more than what is already supplied by teh anonymous concerned christian…):

    Top Ten Signs You’re a Fundamentalist Christian

    10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

    9 - You feel insulted and “dehumanized” when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

    8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

    7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the “atrocities” attributed to Allah, but you don’t even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in “Exodus” and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in “Joshua” including women, children, and trees!

    6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

    5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

    4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs — though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most “tolerant” and “loving.”

    3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in “tongues” may be all the evidence you need to “prove” Christianity.

    2 - You define 0.01% as a “high success rate” when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

    1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

    Listen, first of all, you’re making a large number of assumptions about your faith, and drawing conclusions about EA’s involvement in the spreading of the evolutionist theory. I am a Christian, and not just by word of mouth, either. You can trust me on that. I would not normally proclaim this, but I believe that you would discount what I have to say if I neglect to do so.

    First, you need to realize that you cannot affirm that you are right and that everyone else that believes something different than you is wrong. Western culture is self-centered, and we tend to have this firm belief that we are always right and the other guy is wrong. This is not necessarily the case. Think on this: Tell me, where in the Bible does it say how God created the world? Where is the outline of his methods? Where is the timeline that says “although God is outside of time, He created the world in six days, by OUR measurement?” I don’t believe that it’s impossible to accept both creationism and evolutionary theory at the same time, while retaining the principles of my faith. To me, it also doesn’t matter if I’m wrong about how God did it. If I understood everything about God, I wouldn’t be human, would I?

    Your “proof” is nothing of the sort. Have you ever taken a course in statistics? You have a sample of one individual, and you’re not looking into the details of that individual’s education, upbringing, or anything else. For all you know, that person could have been raised in a household that supports evolutionist theory in the first place. You ignorance and close-mindedness astounds me. If you ask me, you are also giving Christians a bad name, because it’s that kind of superior attitude and thought process that makes the world hate Christians as they do.

    Among all the rubbish, there is some legitimately good advice peppered in your comments. It may sting to read most of them, but that’s what growing in your faith is about. You need to realize that this is absolutely not the best way to handle this, and that attacking another belief system like this will only bring more persecution right back to you. Right now, I’d venture to say you’re in a place where you need to learn to be more accepting of others. Yes, this game is an outrage to several people, including you. I’m shocked by some of its content, too, but guess what? It is absolutely NOT your or my decision to tell other people how to raise their own children. And you will fail miserably when you put forth such a biased attack on the game with a website like this. It is each family’s decision whether they let their children play the game or not. It’s more than fine to try to educate people about what they’re getting themselves into, but present the information in a neutral manner. Take care of it this way and I guarantee you won’t get 100+ comments a day, the bulk of which insulting your intelligence.

    Further, don’t respond to the insults. You’re giving them power by taking what they’re saying and trying to throw it back at them in the false belief that you’re somehow above them. Please realize that you’re the one committing the first offense by insulting what many of them believe. Yes, many of those offended will respond with contempt, but do what you’re supposed to do as a follower of Christ. Turn the other cheek.

    I don’t think we should consider this game propaganda, the reason why Electronic Arts & Maxis created this game is mainly entertainment. There is no reason to get all upset about an INNOCENT game like this. It’s not a teaching of evolution. (In which I believe, but that’s not the point) For instance, it doesn’t say anything about darwin, the story doesn’t take place HERE, and, IT’S A GAME.

    Oh yeah, I actually LOVED this one:
    “So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. ” <– I don’t think your passages are enough evidence friend.

    So, let’s just put this stupid discussion to rest, and start worrying about actual PROBLEMS.

    Because of people like you, we got those fucked up holy wars, and you still can’t see it. That’s really sad man. Really sad…

    Because the best way to go is not the way of christianity, you just have to live everyday like it could be the last one. And appreciate others, their lifes, their interests and there beliefs.

    “Everyone I am sure knows the passage that in the beginning God created heaven and earth. But there is more then just this one that people remember.

    In Genesis 1:2 there is more talk about God’s work. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

    So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. From this God moved to creating all the creatures, notice there is never talk of creatures ‘evolving’ into other creatures, instead God is able to make the creatures as he will including man.”

    Right, so because some fictional story book tells you something, you believe it?.

    Why don’t you believe Hindu creation myths?, or how come you don’t believe Mordor and Sauron the dark lord doesn’t exist in Middle-Earth (which you also unlikely believe exists)?.

    Seriously, what crazy kind of insane gullibility do you have?.

    If you truly believe half the crap you do, then man, you actually need to be studied by medical science, because I wanna know what causes you.

    If your a troll, GG sir, GG.

    Also Spore’s tag line is “How will you create the Universe?”. Read that tag line again, mull on it, dwell, savour its words, look carefully at the words, CREATE and UNIVERSE.

    Now, actually try the game for yourself, try out the CREATURE CREATOR, CREATE the creature to your own liking, and when you are pleased with it, release it upon the world.

    Now, Mr CREATIONIST, tell me that a game with a creature CREATOR thats about CREATING things to your own liking and shaping the UNIVERSE to your will somehow honestly in any way denounces the concept of creation.

    Man I’m an atheist but even I know this game is about creation if anything.

    I’m having a hard time deciding whether or not you are serious here. If this is a joke, then I have to say, it’s quite well done!

    But, just in case it isn’t, here’s my two cents:

    First of all, I’m a fellow Christian, and I understand the desire to stand up for what’s right in God’s eyes. On the other hand, the Bible itself says that the secular world operates in a different way, and that we shouldn’t expect non-Christians to behave as Christians are commanded to.

    That being said, I should tell you that I’m also a gamer, and have tried Spore myself. It’s just a fun game, and I don’t believe it’s any more insulting to God than Monopoly or Go Fish. If you do not wish to have the game in your house, then that’s fine, but I think that it’s not just unfair, but downright unbiblical to try and make non-Christians behave as if they were servants of Christ.

    I think you need to also take a break from the computer. Perhaps taking a walk would be a good idea, methinks. Perhaps go to the park, and do some reading or writing..?

    Your sister in Christ,

    ~Lady Tam Li~

    Wouldn’t it be the greatest joke in the history of the world if the bible actually rick-rolled people?

    Personally, I think it’s high time we accepted the lord Rick Astley as our lord and saviour.

    That said your satire is almost a little too convincing. Of course it does serve to illustrate how the idiots of the current generation are incapable of actually READING SOMETHING before jumping on the hate-wagon.

    I am sorry to say it, but you’re wrong. The Bible has been written and rewritten by man, so nothing is clear. Any book written 2000 years ago could have been changed thousands of times to turn information into something completely different.

    Your crusade against gaming industry is ludicrous. You American fundamentalists are making life increasingly difficult for other, less conservative Christians around the world. Every time I let people know I’m a Christian, I get strange looks and people take it as a fairytale.

    Please stop this, respect other opinions. You’re making a fool out of yourself, and giving Christians worldwide a bad name.

  233. Sirrushon 11 Sep 2008 at 11:12 am 233

    Ma’am, no offense to you or your beliefs, but you are opposing other peoples beliefs. Believe creationism? Fine. Believe evolution? Fine. But I don’t think you have the right to attack other people’s believes because they’re not like yours. You are in no position nor right to teach others about God, if they want to learn, they will learn. Also, the “poor girl”, she merely told the truth, these things have been uncovered and have been confirmed. It’s quite sad that you can not accept the fact that Spore is just a GAME and not meant to convert people or whatever. Also, look further, creationism exists within the game. You can, in fact, choose the space stage and make a perfect being that needs no further evolution.

    Pretty sure this will fall on deaf ears, but who knows.

  234. Alex Encandaron 11 Sep 2008 at 11:13 am 234

    So I understand that you disagree with evolution, but isn’t the entire premise of Spore the fact that you design the creatures and therefore, isn’t Spore advocating Intelligent Design in it’s very design?

    At the least, it seems to me to be a mixture of evolution and intelligent design.

    You take conclusions from the Bible as definitive and undoubted. That is unacceptable!

    You can’t form questions about the world yourself. Your vision, your opinion, your way of life is so intrinsically related to the Bible, that you don’t even consider that are other people who pray for a different invisible god than yourselves.

    People who can’t distinguish this are as radicals as some islamic persons you reject.

    You shouldn’t think bad about the game. The children will learn about the evolution theory sooner or later in school.

    You should be thankful, because now your son have somthing to do when he is bored.
    How can you think that you can teache somthing about the creation with your belifes but not another person with a difrent belive.
    One question:

    In a world where people die every day from starvation and disease, where all of humanity faces climate change, poverty, mental illness and a host of other global perils, the best cause you could think of, the best contribution you could make, was this!?

    Shame on you. Do you think that your Lord and Savior would rather you be spending time badmouthing pop culture or helping to heal this world.

    On another note, the entire universe is a symphonic praise of God. The existence of so much complexity, so many beautiful, harmonious physical and natural processes that have coalesced perfectly and allowed us to come into being, why does that have to be sacrilegious?

    I am a Christian and a proud believer in evolution. We can’t pretend to understand the process of creation, and God’s methods of creation certainly deserve more credit than a paragraph in the bible. Our whole world has always been an exaltation of God, and it is so so sad that you are unable to rejoice in His creation.

    You’re just a dumb deluded bitch if you honestly think that god made this world. Science proves PROOF as in SOLID PHYSICAL EVIDENCE that EVERYTHING in the bible regarding creationism is FALSE. If you were brought up thinking this is true then your parents are even dumber than you and should have been arrested for child abuse. It is IMPOSSIBLE for a flood of any proportion for any duration of time, to affect the geological evidence of the Earth being more than six thousand, sixty thousand, or whatever number creationists dipshits like you want to pull out of your ass. ALL of modern biology is founded under the pretense that the everything in the theory of evolution is true, it still stands as the foundation of biology for a reason.

    Hi!

    It is good to see that you stand up for what you believe in. That I admire about you. I do not agree with you, but I do know that the world needs people who are not afraid to debate in a serious way.

    Now, the thing I do not like about you is your arguments. I would have hoped that you would come up with realistic arguments for your belief system, but this does not occur. In the hundred years christians have tried to prove that the earth is 6000 years old, that evolution is a fraud, that science is a lie, they have not achieved anything other that strenghtening scientific theories. What that strikes me is that not a single argument stands up to scrutiny. Is this not strange? After 100 years, you guys have not been able do disprove science. What does that tell us about who is realisticly right?
    Hum.. Not you, I think.

    There is something else as well. You being a creationist makes me assume that you are american, am i right? America is the moust freedom-loving country I know of (at least in theory, despite the fact that you guys love to force your ideas upon all of us.) Is it not strange that you have such a hard time accepting that the majority of the civilized world believe in the far-more-plausible-theory-than-crationism evolution? Why won’t you just make your own creationist-game and let the rest do as they like?

    Yours, Harald

  263. Truth and Reconciliationon 11 Sep 2008 at 11:36 am 263

    You are a disgrace to Christians. Christianity is not the only belief in this world and we have no say in what non-believers do. We can not force our beliefs upon them, only hope to guide them on the true path to god. We are not Judges of the people.

  266. Reasonon 11 Sep 2008 at 11:37 am 266

    To the author:
    We’re past the era of human existence where a Christian can live in blind, faithful innocence. A child’s innocence is precious, but an innocent child will be eaten alive by this world. You refer to “science” making the earth… but nobody has ever hypothesized science as a force, and that choice of words makes you appear ignorant. You don’t need to shy away from other points of view. Standing strong in your faith in the presence of other points of view will make you stand out… and that’s what Christ really wanted.

    To the commenters:
    You all make me sick. The internet is a cesspool of seething intolerance, and hateful rationalization. It wasn’t that long ago that athiests were quietly begging for tolerance just so their opinion could be heard. You gain some vocal following, and suddenly you don’t care about tolerance anymore…. you’re right! At the end of the day, you should remember this: creationism is a belief, and evolution is a theory. I can’t prove what I believe to you, and you truly can’t prove what you believe to me.

    In the end, it’s all belief, and hating someone for their beliefs is a step backwards no matter what you believe. Let’s move past all this stupidity so the aliens will stop ignoring us, and come elevate us to the next level of existence. I’m going to be a being of pure energy! weeeeeeeeeeee!

You talk about Will Wright brainwashing society with his harmless video game, when you yourself have been brainwashed, in a way.

    I always find it funny with the first chapters of the bible, see you say it is all true and that, but just look at it. The first two chapters. First god creates adam and eve at the same time. in the second chapter he creates adam, then he does somethings and then he creates eve. Ofcourse I’m not a biblenut myself, so not sure about the chapters.
    Things cant happen two different ways at the same time. Except in quantum physics, which YOU dont beleive in….

  274. Firelliuson 11 Sep 2008 at 11:42 am 274

    I think part of the problem that is going on here is that the bulk of you are ignorant as to the word of God.
    I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.
    I understand that everyone didn’t have the chance to be taught these things, and learn about God as my family did
    so if I am going to have this kind of attention I should use it to help teach others about the words of God that
    helped to shape me into the woman I am today.

    “Let me just tell you, the way you are going now is not the way to open up people’s minds to the word of god.
    the anger that you inspire will cause hatred towards christianity.”

    Everyone I am sure knows the passage that in the beginning God created heaven and earth.
    But there is more then just this one that people remember.

    In Genesis 1:2 there is more talk about God’s work. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was
    upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”

    So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. From this God moved to creating all the creatures,
    notice there is never talk of creatures ‘evolving’ into other creatures, instead God is able to make the creatures
    as he will including man.

    “actually, there is another possibility. God is playing Spore on “Reality”, to put it simply.
    it is by his hand, and his designs that the world was shaped and that beings evolved.
    that is my belief. along with, as you might have guessed by now, Hegelianism”

    People of science claim that the Earth is the way it is because of millions of years of time and science
    effecting it.

    “it was never claimed that science affected the evolution of creatures.”

    But the Bible teaches us that God was not done with man. For we were His creation and He then spoke to Noah
    in Genesis 8:21-27 after the flood. “21. The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart:
    “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from
    childhood. And never gonna give you up. 22. “Never gonna let you down.” 23.”Never gonna run around and desert you.”
    24. “Never gonna make you cry.” 25. “Never gonna say goodbye.” 26. “Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.”
    27.”Never truly believe anything you read on the Internet. There will always be cases of Poe’s Law.”

    It’s these teachings that I’ve spent my life learning, believing and becoming, that have made me the woman
    that I am today.

    “more proof against your alledged Christianity: in my bible Genesis 8 ends at verse 22!”

  275. Magnus Johanssonon 11 Sep 2008 at 11:43 am 275

    Understand other peoples beliefs as well. Don’t try to enforce your values on other people who don’t believe. If you don’t like the game, don’t play it! Simple as that.
    Christianity and other religions are brainwashing people, not video games.

  276. a respectful young adulton 11 Sep 2008 at 11:45 am 276

    OK look here I myself am not ignorant to the teachings of god I am 18 gone to church all my life went to catholic school all my life and so therefore I am not ignorant. You are not able to call anyone these things. I honestly am very offended because I know what and why I believe the things I believe. Throughout life I have always been taught that god loves everyone, flaws and all. I believe we are to live this way. Now, I don’t know everything, but I know you are full of yourself basically because you don’t follow what god has truly intended.
    You are acting just like everyone you are talking about by putting down a beautiful piece of artistry. You have no room to speak, as follows I am not a strong follower anymore because people of the faith like you bashing video games. These things specifically have made me feel there is no god because of the fact that you can all be okay with saying you believe in god, and these things are wrong, but you know nothing about them. We are supposed to believe that everyone is here for a reason, so therefore these video games and creators are here for a reason. Not for controversy but for acceptance and understanding. Will Wright isn’t the wrong one in the equation, it is honestly you and all the other people who think they are so much further above other things.

  277. You sir... are annoyingon 11 Sep 2008 at 11:46 am 277

    This is hype site isn’t it?

    There is no way someone can be this contextual about the Bible… I am christian and I myself know that the Bible is a huge joke…… Here we have a story’s wrote on a peice of toilet paper vrs. Fact….. you know what this site reminds me of… it reminds me of that old story I read in a history book about that teacher who wanted to teach evolution.. And all these bible freaks where againest it…… but guess what evolution won…… 10,000$ says this won’t be any diffrent.. you can’t just ask for support to bring down a game that “to you” teaches evolution.. well guess what… the catholic schools does to… and so does orther 90% of the world

    And another 10$ says the Jewish schools do to… dare you to walk into there school and ask to bring it down in the name of the christian god for the reason of teaching evolution….

    And besides… having seen the videos of pictures and movies about dicks and a naked woman poorly created.. you seem to try to get your point across… but the real point of the matter is if your children or you decide to make a penis then it was your’s or there choice… not the game designers.. they never “added” penises to the game you or your son did…

    I think you should stop this whole thing before you make a bigger fool out of yourself…. that or you could admit its a hype site for your own creepy pleasure…

  282. abb3won 11 Sep 2008 at 11:54 am 282

    Your error appears to be in implicitly assuming literal Biblical Inerrancy. This proposition is not uniformly accepted (compare to literal Q’ranic Inerrancy), and may only be invoked as a primary assumption of Faith, rather than as an inference from more fundamental propositions. As a result, you appear to mistake “unbelieving” for “ignorant”, “belief that I was raised in” for “belief that is correct”, “clearly said that” for “clear that”, “we are taught and believe” for “it is true”.

    Of course, I’m not sure where you found a copy of the Bible with a reference to Rick Astley and Poe’s law. =)

    Hm, do you really think it’s a hoax though? I’ve talked to religious fanatics like this, and they definitely do exist. Scary, but true.

    What this site reinforces for me is that people who embrace religion to an extreme actually hurt their own cause. It’s actually pretty sad. I’m a Christian, and I play (and love) Spore. The game never once changed any of my personal beliefs. Evolutionary theory and religion can coexist–unfortunately a lot of religious extremists are quite narrow minded.

    Will Wright is a genius when it comes to gaming, and those who call him a “brainwasher” are the MOST weak minded of us all!

    I think it’s funny how the only people that saw god after he rose from the dead were the people who wrote the bible. That and the fact that whenever my pastor talks about Easter he says the Romans would have never left their post under penalty of death, my question has always been, “so what if they were just given orders to leave? Jesus was for all intensive purposes dead as a doornail, there were plenty of people at the time calling themselves the son of a god so it wasn’t unusual. Plus there was so much turmoil even during the ‘pax romana’ that there were more important things to do then make sure some corpse rotted behind a stone.” People always say “well you just have to have faith”, “faith” is for people that are content with dumb answers. I know this site is a fraud, but i just wanted to throw that out there. Plus, on topic, even if the scientists are wrong about evolution, it still gives us some kind of answer that could make even the slightest bit of sense instead of just “oh god created all that”, how am i supposed to believe that? Because if you say “faith” i’m going to have to hurt someone.

    OK people, listen up 1 spore is a decent game ITS NOT GREAT but its decent. Its special in its own, the way of being original in a mediocre gaming world.

    The idiot who runs this website is one of those christan suprieists, the same ones that say all other religions are bad and not to mention most christens are fucking retarted when they belive the bible is true.
    1, The bible is a mixture of much older and spread out texts. Hell, even the Catholic church admits to changing the bible over the years ITS IMPOSSIBLE to find a original, why you may ask, because they burned them all to keep the Christan people stupid.
    The only real things you should take seriously from any religion is normal common since for anyone with a I.Q. over 12. Don’t steal, don’t rape, don’t lie, don’t do ass hole things, and Christians are the biggest ass holes around.. fucking hypocrites.

    2, It’s a fucking video game people SO BIG DEAL. Also about the nudity thing, you have to download a spore cast to even get their content, and ya can see most of it upfront, so there is not really a chance of running into a world filled with penis monsters. Also if ya cant take a Lil nudity and are so afraid of your own body, you fail to realize 2000 years ago it was good deal to fuck a 12 year old girl or a 10 year old boy, or castrate this 12 year old boy so he could sing soprano for the rest of his life.

    TeeHee, LOVE the comment!

    To the “Admin”, I HAVE done the research. I HAVE read a Bible. It’s BECAUSE of that research and reading the Bible that I am Non-Religious Agnostic.

    Indeed, just reading your comments is sufficient for me to not want my child exposed to the beliefs of such a religion. From bigotry and hate to lies and deceit, I consider the version of Christianity that you promote to be unsuitable, dishonorable, and unethical, and, in fact, the worshipping of a Demon-Pretender-To-The-Throne-Of-Heaven.

    The one consistant fact about religion is that “God” is made in the image of the believer. Proof? Look at just the major religion known as Christianity. Now, look at all the diverse beliefs within that religion. Some favor bigotry and hate while others do not. And many have other differences regarding historical events.

    They can’t ALL be right.

    So, the evidence points to religion having a great deal of made up aspects. If I wanted to believe in a confirmed made up reality, I’d believe that Humanity was nothing more than a failed experiment in Unified Diversity created, not by a supreme being, but by technologically advanced beings millions of years ago.

    You can say “The Bible says so, so it’s true”, but that’s blind faith, not fact.
    Science provides theoretical data which can be tested scientifically. One does not HAVE to blindly accept what is told. Using available technology, one can prove or disprove the claims of evidence. The religious texts such as the Bible do NOT offer such evidence. The only claims of evidence by religious “scientists” are to automatically assume that an unproveable entity exists and then create “evidence” around the unprovable entity. Even String Theory has more backing it up than creationism.

    2000 AÑOS DE QUEJARSE Y DESEAR LA DESTRUCCION DE LO QUE NO ENTIENDEN:

    Esto me hace acordar ya a NOO ESA CARTA MAGIC TIENE UN DEMONIO DIBUJADO ,, DUNGEON AND DRAGONS tiene dragones que son siervos de satan.Ese juego es muy violento ,la evolución es una mentira de judíos diabólicos ,los musulmanes tienen demasiadas esposas, los paganos tenían leones con dietas diabólicas, la vecina tiene las tetas mas turgentes que yo en el nombre de cristo es una bruja……

    JURO POR EL CORAZÓN SANGUINOLENTO DE JESUCRISTO QUE NO SOY UN FANÁTICO!! palabras de algún inquisidor como ustedes estúpidos cristianos fanaticos yanquis …

    NOTA MENTAL: Si los judeocristianos fueron creados a imagen y semejanza de su dios ,YABE ES UN PEDAZO DE MIERDA CÓSMICA!

    YO SOY UN HIJO DE LA TIERRA Y DEL COSMOS no de un estúpido que crea la tierra en 7 días y le sale mal todo jajaj ,sus hijos son tentados por la serpiente ,, su pueblo esparcido ,, su hijo clavado en un pedazo de madera y muchos de sus otros fracasos.

    Keep it going, let the hate continue. I’ll definitely be checking back here for awhile to see new content.

    Arrrgh when I first read this the very first thing that popped into my head was poe’s law. But the more I read the more convinced I became you were serious, to the point I decided to blog about how stupid you were being. And now you go and prove that my first thoughts were right.

    I’m guessing that you actually have the game and rather like it, thanks for the chuckles.

  317. Williamon 11 Sep 2008 at 12:33 pm 317

    I’m at a loss of words here. You’re upset about people (not EA) creating creatures with female/male organs. Love is not permitted but you’re entirely fine with other games where you can shoot people in the head? You need to reprioritize, maybe get another braincell or two. I’m sure you’re a nice person, but seriously, put this blog down. You’re only making yourself look dumb.

    I think that is one of many reasons, why more and more europeans are laughing about the typical US-american, right-winged lunatics. You americans are really really strange people. Not in a positive way of thinking, of course. At least that’s entertainment for us, looking over the great ocean to see what your population is doing there … ;-)

    But … seeing all the ads on this page, the purpose of it should be clear. I hope so.

  335. Enkidu98on 11 Sep 2008 at 12:50 pm 335

    I appreciate your beliefs. But, if you are going to suggest that people just don’t understand yours, you may be subject to the contrary argument that perhaps you just do not understand either.

    I suggest you read ‘The God Delusion’ by Richard Dawkins. With this you’ll find a solid grounding, perhaps, as to why so many people have attacked you and your beliefs.

    No one will ever be able to change your mind, and you have a right to it. Enjoy willful ignorance and its fruits.

    You are just like a typical christian, myopic viewpoint and you never look at from a realistic point of view, only from a one-sided point of view to PROVE to everyone your god exists. If you could look at it from a normal view, you would see god DOES NOT EXIST, but SCIENCE DOES and CAN BE PROVEN.

    I would suggest you don’t label anyone as ‘ignorant’ in your posts, as it demonstrates an extreme disrespect for the beliefs of others (which is ironic coming from you based on what you post).

    I respect your beliefs, and I respectfully disagree with them. I ask you give my beliefs the same respect, whether or not they are in-line with yours.

    It is not that I was ‘without the benefit of the same upbringing that you had’, I actually was raised Christian - and when I reached College age I made an intelligent choice about the world around me and what I believed existed. I was not without opportunity, I made a choice.

    A person being raised Christian, Hindu, Muslim, or whatever else has no benefit over anyone else. Each person has the right to choose what they believe, and all beliefs should be treated equally as long as they do no harm to those around them.

    Whatever your beliefs, you should respect my choices as I respect yours.

  349. T.H. Cumberon 11 Sep 2008 at 1:07 pm 349

    I don’t see your problem. Most of the people don’t even believe in the big lie anymore. Some God (we never get to see) is there and made us out of his self image. If you can’t prove it by science, in my eyes and in lot’s of other eyes it doesn’t exists. If God made us into his self image, then why are there wars on this world? And people starving. If you can explain that sort of things and still believe in God, I’m impressed! There’s nothin wrong with Spore. It’s just a fun game to play from Electronic Arts. The church and it’s followers disallowed Science. Without science you couldn’t even have this webpage. So you believe in science? You’re not fully christian :O? You don’t believe a book and religion made by humans to controll other humans and be like a house ped and it’s owner?:O No!
    believe what you want to believe, but keep it to yourself and don’t make such a fuzz about nothing. Thank you….

    Thank you for sponsoring it!

  353. queen polyannaon 11 Sep 2008 at 1:14 pm 353

    Please remember not to take things so seriously. This is a game, if you personally find it offensive do not watch it or play it. But to be so unreasonable about a work of fiction and fantasy is utterly silly. Find more important issues to be worried about.
    If you as a parent do not want your children playing it do not buy it for them. This is your responsibility.
    P.S. Just because you believe in something does not make it right or wrong - it is just your belief and the rest of the world does not have to agree with you.

    if you don’t like the game then don’t play it, is that so hard to do?

    Let me break it down for in a civil manner. You talk of the Bible as being the book of all truth but tell me: is the bible not written by mortal men. Men who in the end knows nothing of a possible higher beings thoughts and acts. The writers did not vitness the beginning of the earth, neighter did they see the flood. The were mere mortals like you and me. They realized that people need guidance so they created a god and with him they went out to make the world a better place. This is many a sentury ago and they did not pocess the knowledge that we do and therefore they wrote as they did.

  361. Martyon 11 Sep 2008 at 1:20 pm 361

Seriously if you’re that obsessed with the dude, why don’t you fucking marry him instead of whinging on the internet about it. There’s a shit load of religious people that love Spore and you don’t see them complaining about it. I bet you want Spore banned don’t you? What’s next, forcing people to have the same beliefs as you? Let’s ban all other religions whilst we’re at it, and force people to go to church. We could ban sex as well, that’s a sin. You’re a fucking idiot.

    Well..I’ve been reading this crap for a couple of days, and I finally had to leave a comment.

    This is either one of the biggest trolls I’ve seen lately, or you are a seriously stupid “woman”.

    Spore is just a game, a FUCKING GAME. If you don’t want your kids playing it, ok, don’t fucking let them play it. Why don’t you talk about the other games that contain evolutionism in it? (i.e. E.V.O. , Seventh Cross Evolution, ect, ect.)

    I mean for fucks sake, how about you make a game dealing with the THEORY of creationism. I’m sure that will sell as good as spore is. *cough, cough*

    Now if you give me some proof that evolution never happened, and we just magically appeared by some fucking god you have, prove it to me. with more than stupid words from an outdated book.

    god damnit, free speech should not be allowed to people like you.

  375. Navan Gheeon 11 Sep 2008 at 1:40 pm 375

    Laddy-buck, you’re protesting a work of FICTION. This is what’s meant by tilting at windmills. Are you a proponent of book banning or burning big heaping piles of LPs? You can’t attempt to determine the tastes (or deride the intellect) of a fair cross-section of the populace without inciting backlash, and that’s what you’re coming up against now: not ignorance of god, but anger with the conceit that you & your ilk somehow know better than the rest of the world. No offense, but you don’t.

    Like it or not, video games are getting progressively closer to being a legit form of art, and all art is is storytelling that’s reliant on the viewer to interpret it. You’re interpreting it based on your own biases, not on anything that has to actually do with the game itself. If you’re going to try and arbitrate as to whether the game is good or bad for people, you should actually be in a position to make such a judgment. You simply don’t have the qualifications or education to make that decision. Again, tilting at windmills.

    Personally I couldn’t give a toss about video games, myself, I find them to be a waste of time… but I find it curious that people like yourself consistently misread their religious beliefs as somehow being ‘under attack’ by science and/or pop culture when nothing of the kind is actually taking place. Is your faith so easily shaken? It’s the creationist / fundie propaganda you’ve been swilling that’s to blame, here, as neither science nor religion are mutually exclusive– no matter how much you’d like to believe otherwise. Culture wars are, by and large, all noise and no signal; they’re for sheltered xenophobes & the easily-startled. Whose side are YOU on?

  376. Writer@Largeon 11 Sep 2008 at 1:43 pm 376

    Admin, I think that this line in your post is key, but not in the way you think:

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.”

    Yes. That’s actually a good point. In fact, it’s the most important point. You believe what you were taught to believe as a child, as do most people. It’s why the vast majority of children in Christian-dominated countries (like ours) grow up to be Christian, while kids in Muslim countries grow up to be Muslims, etc. It’s not a *virtue* that you hold the beliefs you were raised in; it’s just human nature.

    The real question is: have you ever bothered to critically examine what you were taught to believe as a child? Or do you follow them just as blindly now as you did then?

    I think the people who come here insulting and berating you are just as ignorant as they claim you are. I do hope, however, that you are open to at least a little critical questioning.

    Wow, so let me get this straight. Because YOU don’t like this game (keep in mind you have NO obligation to buy it whatsoever) then it should be taken away from people who do? Your argument is ridiculous and it’s because of people like you that this country is going down the shitter. Keep your religious views to yourself and stop trying to “educate” the rest of us with your beliefs. To sum up my point, IT’S A FUCKING GAME. Have a nice day.

    I respect your toughts and even tought I’m not christian I believe in god AND in evolution, the only thing I don’t like about this website, is how you don’t like that Will Wright according to you is converting other people (not only kids buy vodeogames), there is also non-christianity believers that doesn’t like you going around imposing your beliefs, basically your doing the same thing you think Will Wright is making.

    Please understand that the crhistianity is not the only belief people is allowed to have, and as many people have said, Christianity along with evolution is just a theory, there isn’t any factual proof that God created the earth in 7 days, in fact the first part of the bible I think is what really happened, is a story to be interpreted kind of like methaphors and not believe what says in the genesis and exile actually happen, I understand that is the way you were raised, but you need to be more open minded, it’s just a game and thus only made to entertain people, the same happened to comics and jazz and stuff like that and after all this years they haven’t ruined the earth.

    And to other people bashing christianty, if you fell insulted and angry when someone bashes what you believe in, why do the same, if you dont believe in god fine, but dont go around bashing other people.

    Ah Vigosky: eres el pedazo de mierda mas grande q he visto, te gustaria q yo anduviera criticando e insultando todo lo que tu crees diciendo q mierda alguien que se cree hijo de la tierra y el cosmos,? es por mierda como esa q usd dice q aun hay guerras, generalizando toda una religion por cosas q un pequeño grupo hace.

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.”

    This is perhaps the single greatest flaw with religious thinking. The fact that you are simply a product of shifting statistical probabilities lends nothing to the credence of your arguments.

    ” I understand that everyone didn’t have the chance to be taught these things, and learn about God as my family did so if I am going to have this kind of attention I should use it to help teach others about the words of God that helped to shape me into the woman I am today.”

    There seems to be a disconnect with reality, have you ever seriously considered your position from the eyes of a person of a different faith(or lack thereof)?

    P.S. No need to respond, I’ll probably never visit this site again, and I’m sure I know what the response would be like anyways.

    So, yeah, kinda sad that you’re taking a wonderfully created game, which at no point says anything about the origin of humans themselves, and forcing your retarded GOD bullshit on it and everyone who likes the game, just because you want to pick a religeous battle with the rest of the world.

    Don’t worry, one day, all you religeous fucks that believe what you believe is better than what everyone else believes will all kill eachother off, and the rest of us will be able to live in peace, and not be nagged by fuckers like you.

    Sure, christains have some good morals being taught in their churches, but that’s all it is, is morals, and if you take it beyond that at all, you’re just a fucking moron. Hell, the book you all worship was written by some guy hyped up on some super hallicunagentics (fuck the spelling, don’t care right now) and believed every word of it. Just because someone made a manual for retards on how to be moral and polite dosen’t mean all the stories are true.

    People like you should be allowed to have access to the internet. Talk about just spreading trash and making a good thing turn to shit…

  411. Kawalskion 11 Sep 2008 at 2:25 pm 411

    I don’t see why you guys are so hyped about this. This site isn’t “pushing beliefs on you” or “spreading misinformation” any more than the game is. It’s not like Spore is broadcast for everyone to see without them going out and buying it. It’s not like this web site is even discover-able without looking for it.

    Petty Internet-Squabbling over religion vs. science is ridiculous. If it were going to get anywhere, it wouldn’t take place on a message board or a comment thread.

    In the end, the game never claims to be non-fiction. This is like being angry at Star Wars because it tells people that The Force is real and never mentions God.

  412. DrArkaneXon 11 Sep 2008 at 2:25 pm 412

    ok, since we are focusing on biblical knowledge and fighting about who is right. explain to me this.

    Genesis 4:16 So Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and lived in the land of Nod, 41 east of Eden.

    See, this is where it ends. If Adam and Eve gave birth to Cain and Abel. Then Cain kills Abel. And Cain goes off to the land of Nod, East of Eden. Then this is immediate affirmation that God did not create everything in the world. God in previous chapters only created Eden, not the world and the universe. when God said “Let their be light”, it could have been symbolic of actually switching on a light bulb or some other mysterious thing.

    Coming down on an Incredible game like Spore is amazingly stupid. Christians defending something sooo obscure such as the bible and the Creationist viewpoint. Even Christians can’t refute pure science. For me, Evolution is the only answer to how we came to be. Again, explain to me what is Nod, and who created Nod, and also, did Cain marry his mom and have kids? Because after that verse I posted above, it gets kinda weird from then on.

    I have been raised a Christian too, and I know that about the first few books of the old testament, are not true. Adam represents man, Eve represents temptation and the Snake represents evil. With Noah, it would be impossible to put two of every animal on one single boat. He would have had to travel all around the world first of all to two of every animal. How do I know all of this. I have been going to Catholic School for 13 years know. Priests and Nuns have taught me this.

    Come on man, we both know that the idea of Evolution was already banned in schools, we don’t need it banned altogether. If you think of something an you know it will sell then you sell it that’s how we roll as a race. I’m glad to see that you realized that Jack Thompson is a bad at his job, but just realize one more thing, the game is out, it’s selling like hot cakes an it wont change.

  418. Brianon 11 Sep 2008 at 2:29 pm 418

    ~Post from before, now with an update (scroll down to see it)~

    First off, I have a question. What kind of authority do you have as a religious official that makes you believe that your beliefs and actions (the creation of this site and call of removing the video game Spore from stores) are right in the eyes of God? While it is the responsibility of Christians to spread the word of God to other people, it is NOT the responsibility of Christians to shove their beliefs down other peoples throats because a person doesn’t agree with the religious references made by someone else (in this case, the references to evolution and creationism found in Spore). Do you know why that is? It is because God gave free will to all people. That’s what great about both being Human and living in America. People are free to choose what religious preferences they want, and are free to express themselves. Banning the game Spore from store shelves would encroach on that American AND God-given right.

    I can understand that the reason for your actions stems from your desire to shelter your children from something that you deem being unsuitable for your household. Now think about this: Would you want someone else telling you how to raise your children? Of course you wouldn’t - you have your own beliefs on how you want to raise your children. Wouldn’t the banning of this game based on it’s religious innuendo be akin to restricting the freedom of expression and the allowance of engaging in an activity?

    ((This is the update))
    As far as knowing what your beliefs exactly are, you have yet to tell exactly what those religious beliefs are. You have said that you were a Christian, and that much is established. You have, however, not provided the public with your denomination. As you should be fully aware, while all Christians believe in Jesus as their Lord and Savior, different denominations of the religion interpret the Word of God (The Bible) in different ways. Your speaking of God’s creation of man has caused me to remember something. What are 7 days to God? Before anything was created, time could not have been measured in the same sense that man measures time, because the Sun and the Earth had yet to be created. Thinking that Time has always been would be a fallacy to the Christian faith - therefore God created time, but when? The 7 days that God used to make everything may very well have not been seven days in the sense that Man measures 7 days. Again, this is all up to how a person interprets the Bible. Some people will agree with what I said (to allow both Religion AND science to be feasably correct), and some people will disagree and say that God gave the timeline in such a way that Man would understand it - 7 days.

    In the post in which you congratulate yourself for getting a “nude” Spore creation, I have found several CRITICAL error’s in your logic. Yes, you posted a video of a game creation that was meant to resemble a nude women. What you did NOT do is indicate the username of the person that created the creation, you did NOT indicate where the creation could be found, and you did NOT indicate where you received this information. Any of that would be critical to directly link yourself to the removal of this creation. As could be seen in another post HERE on this site, Spore users have created millions of creatures (hence your post “Mr. Wright Strikes Again”). You ONLY provided a visual representation of one such creature that simulates nudity, it would be nigh impossible for EA and Maxis to scour it’s vast database for one such creation - unless, that is, EA and Maxis had already established their own methods of analyzing and removing creations that may be considered offensive. I can assure you that posting a YouTube video of a “nude” model is not an effective tool with which to search a database containing millions of pieces of content - so the only logical answer is one of two things. 1) Another Spore user saw the content, and through the use of the Spore website, submitted relevant data necessary to remove the creation from the database or 2) EA and Maxis have their own methods of screening for inappropriate content (which for millions of creations over the course of only about 2 weeks is no small task).

    There are two posts here that discuss the problem of inappropriate content in the game. There is a HUGE problem with what you’re saying about the game. The way you’re representing the game, it’s as if you’re implying that players will without a doubt encounter these inappropriate creations, and that EA and Maxis encourage users to create these “nude” creatures. This is FAR from the truth. No nude or inappropriate game creature has come from, or is endorsed by the game’s creators. The only source of this inappropriate content is from immature end users that think that it’s funny to play through the game with a creature shaped to resemble genitalia. And as has been witnessed already, EA and Maxis have been working to remove this content from the accessible user-created content. Allow me to give an example of what is going on here. I’m sure we can all agree the Crayola makes their crayons for creative use on the part of the end users - people that want to draw and color. People are free to color and draw whatever they want: plants, animals, scenery, and - because they have a right to create what they will - genitalia (I’m certain you can see how I’m relating this to the ability of Spore players to create whatever they want). Sometimes those same people who think it’s funny to draw inappropriate pictures will also think it’s funny to put these pictures up where people can see them (related to the uploading of inappropriate content onto Spore’s internet servers). Now are we to go after Crayola for creating the tools that were used to create inappropriate images (Spore being the tools for creation)? No. We try to find who created the content and give them a slap on the wrists. Going after Crayola (EA and Maxis) wouldn’t solve anything, if the content in question was created by immature end-users.

    From this site, I’m noticing a sizable amount of contempt for Will Wright. This is something that I’m having a huge problem seeing from a person claiming to be a good, Christian person. Will Wright is a person, just like everyone else. He has the same rights to believe what he wants, and he has the same rights to express his beliefs freely. He chose to express himself through creating a video game that had a strong basis in the concepts of evolution and creationism. How is it that he must be condemned for his choice to create a game that expresses his beliefs? Just because it doesn’t contain Christian values, it shouldn’t be banned from all people. And if you still think that is should be, an alternative view (doesn’t reflect my personal view but is to make a point): Because the movie Passion of the Christ contains Christian principals, I, as a muslim, believe that the movie should be removed from all store shelves because it is something that is against what I believe. (note: I am not a muslim, but am making a point regarding different religious views) It is impossible to argue with this logic. What you are asking is based solely on your religious preference and is against one of the fundamental values of living in the United States of America - the freedom to believe in and pursue whatever religious preference a person may want.

    I have to address your desire to get the game removed through the means of a Court of Law. As I have already established, the desire to remove the game from store shelves stems from religious beliefs. That fact prevents an American Court of Law to enforce such a demand - due to the separation of church and state. The government cannot interfere with something based on it’s religious preference - the only exception being if the thing in question is a public nuisance and interfering with the operations of a business or establishment. And as for the claims that illicit content can be found in the game, I have also established that all content that could be considered inappropriate is created by end users, something that EA and Maxis has no control over. You have no claims with which would be sufficient to remove the game from store shelves. None.

    Now I think it’s fair to tell you what kind of person I am. My mother took myself and my sister to our Lutheran Catholic church every Sunday right up until we moved when I was 10. Since then, my parents divorced and I’ve been forced to live with each parent have 50% custody - meaning I would stay with my mother one week and my father the next. Now I’m 18, sleeping on a couch at my grandfather’s in California’s Bay Area, going to college during the week and working to pay my bills on the weekend. My life is pretty chaotic, and I’ve been friends with people from every religion, every race, in all sort of economic standings. I have very little stability in my life, but the little I have I like to believe comes from the many viewpoints I’ve encountered as a result of my unstable lifestyle. It’s up to you to listen to these ramblings of a 18 year old, I just wanted to make MY beliefs known. I will repost this from time to time (with updates if applicable).

    So, for the long white bearded mighty old guy’s sake, stop saying such bullshit like “Spore is satanic, Spore is evil, Spore is funny”! I know you christians want to spill all the fun in the world, but please let us brained ppl keep it for us to use it.

I’m still an adolescent, still learning things about science and such.

    Lady you realize that this is just a game made for FUN! It’s ENTERTAINMENT! Theres nothing in this game that goes against creationism and in fact if you think about it actually supports it considering the person playing the game is in essence playing a virtual God. This game was made because it is a great concept for a game and it would be fun to play. Which is why there was so much hype up to its release! Gamers are excited about having the option to create there own species and civilization from the ground up, its something that has never been done before and its a great idea. There is no hidden agenda that Will Wright and EA have here. There goal is to make fun and innovative games for ENTERTAINMENT and in by doing so making a hefty profit. The fact that you try to champion a cause to stop the production and sale of a very well liked videogame is absurd and it offends me that you are trying to infringe upon my rights as an American to play such a game. You and people like you are whats wrong with this country and as a christian myself it OFFENDS me greatly that you use and twist OUR religion for stupid shit like this. Do something with your life that actually means something or matters, like, I dunno, praying for the children in Darfur instead of attacking a videogame!

    WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO OPEN YOUR FUC**NG EYES AND SEE THAT YOUR BELIVES ARE PURE IRONICAL!

    HERE IS THE PHRASE OF THE CENTURY

    “SO THE MAN CREAT GOD, AT YOUR IMAGE”, AND NOW, MORE AND MORE I SEE THET BELIVE IN A THING THAT DOES NOT EXIST IS A BIG WASTE OF TIME.

    DIE FOR YOUR FAITH!

    “So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. From this God moved to creating all the creatures, notice there is never talk of creatures ‘evolving’ into other creatures, instead God is able to make the creatures as he will including man.”

    You say, “God” created the Earth. Even if that were true, it’s proven that the world went through different periods of time, for instance, the warming and cooling periods. Through this, even if he did create all those things, as you claim, that doesn’t mean they are not capable of bloody change.

    “But the Bible teaches us that God was not done with man.”

    Okay. the bible. Who cares about the bible? Christians? That’s it. It’s a bloody book. I consider my WoW Books to be my bible. Does that mean that everything that they say or state in it is true? Not in the least. There are plenty of big books that state things like this, like the dozens of scientific evidence that are considered, I remind you, non-fiction, so does that mean that every thing they say is true? It doesn’t.

    You need to realize this before you go throwing your opinions out there as fact. You have no proof. Faith? I had faith that my mother was going to live through cancer, but she didn’t. I had faith that I would have a good childhood, but I didn’t. I have faith that I’ll never die of what my mother died of, but that’s 97% not going to happen either.

    You honestly think will right is evil and imposing beliefs of evolution onto people? the guy who hacked your page will be some guy off 4chan, not will wright or anyone that is “scared” of what you write on this page.

    i do find the fact your calling us ignorant to the word of God when you say “So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science. ” its all fair that you have your beliefs but to then you claim science is wrong is you just being ignorant yourself, what do you have to say about that?

    At the end of the day, its entertainment and if you chase after every tv show, film or game that somehow shows different beliefs than yours, then your going to have a pretty sad life.

    Good news everyone! It’s the professor here (yes I have a master’s degree in psychology) and I would like to share the latest scientific development with you all!

    Check out this:

    http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=first-animal-that-can-survive-in-space

    They found microorganisms that can live in space.

    I will say that again.

    They found microorganisms that can live in space.

    One more time, let it settle into your brain:

    They found microorganisms that can live in space.
    As in in out space. In a vacuum. No oxygen. No water. Maybe a little ice, like on a comet. Possibly in something like a meteor. Completely unaffected by space radiation.

    So, that being said, it isn’t a big step to assume that such a minor organism could hitch a ride on a floating piece of space debris and end up on another planet.

    Thus the pan-spermia method of seeding life is further supported (that’s how life begins in Spore for the record).

    Now I don’t much like spore, but I am a man of empiricism and science. And I know, as a psychologist, that religious beliefs are attributable to most cases of mental illness. I can also argue that many cases of mental illness are the result of emotional states (such as depression or anxiety) which are caused by irrational beleifs. Sometimes these irrational beleifs may be religious in nature. More-so if they are evangelical in nature and take written word literally.

    That being said, I would highly suggest that all young earth creationists try to understand that truth is something that is based on rationality and not on something you read in a book that was written by some people in a desert who “created” a thing called morality that you apparently think is somehow tied to the text itself (even though you’re reading a poor translation of the written word at that). While you are entitled to your opinion, I also think that with freedom we must also have truth. The truth will set you free.

    So… If you want to be free, beleive in truth. If you are a masochist and want to feel pain and live your short life in an oppressed and generally unhappy manner (like the blog writer here who seems to have a big problem with everyone) then by all means do let your beleifs prevent you from living your life to the fullest. But remember this:

    If you can have the freedom to protest something, it should, just as much, be free to exist, be sold, and enjoyed by children. As children are innocent and don’t need to be tainted by the vile hand of irrational beleifs. These beleifs formulated in childhood will only lead to greater anxiety later in life.

    ~ Good luck and God bless to you all.

    If you want people to be respectful of you then you need to be respectful of them. Accept that your beliefs aren’t the only ones there are. I am an atheist, and I have friends in almost every religion. Even a heathen. If you don’t like the game, don’t play it. You can’t truthfully say that you thought people would be nice and try to help you in your goal, whatever that may be. People play games for entertainment, and most of the ideas in the game will conflict with your ideas. But keep in mind that these are worlds of make-believe. They don’t exist inside the realm of reality. They are a way to escape reality.

    Thanks for stirring more Christian hate, @$$hole.

    But the Bible teaches us that God was not done with man. For we were His creation and He then spoke to Noah in Genesis 8:21-27 after the flood.
    “21. The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. And never gonna give you up.
    22. “Never gonna let you down.”
    23.”Never gonna run around and desert you.”
    24. “Never gonna make you cry.”
    25. “Never gonna say goodbye.”
    26. “Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.”
    27.”Never truly believe anything you read on the Internet. There will always be cases of Poe’s Law.”

    That’s not a bible verse. It’s a Rick Roll. >.> (Too all of you fools who are giving flaming anti-Christian talks: This only proves how easily you’re swayed by your hate, since you know nothing of the Bible, and don’t bother reading through entire posts to the end. I mean, come on. “27″ is so obvious, it’s not funny.)

  448. Trion 11 Sep 2008 at 2:51 pm 448

    Okay so I came across this website on a games review site and my first thoughts where rather humours, however… I strongly believe in evolution and class myself as an environmental scientist (I’m not a physicist, if I was I’d have a lot of theory’s and no proof) and I’m pretty active in some games.

    So I bought spore and played it and yes…. it’s based on evolution but for one it’s not accurate and two it’s a game of enjoyment.

    I DO believe in “god” to an extent, if you ask me if I believe that a man on a cloud created the world in 6 days and had a day off then no… Unfortunately I don’t believe that however I believe the interpretation of god can be used in many ways, a force, a being whatnot.

    Evolution is the latest theory in the sack and has been for many years now (more than a fair few of *wink*) and its an extremely evidential point, we now have the technology to research these theory’s and prove or disprove them. I’m sure everyone has heard of the ALICE program going on by CERN, with this it will recreate the conditions after the big bang theory, this on its own will help prove the theory of evolution.

    Science is now promoted throughout the world in schools as it’s the most logical response to what is going on, and if god did create us then I’m sure he/she/it will have expected for us to do this.

    If you have an open mind then the theory of evolution should be at least considered, I respect all faiths, Christian, Muslim, Islam, ect ect ect but I believe it is unjust to attack a scientific theory which is based on logic and even more so through a game based for enjoyment.

    I believe this is a “good game” because it does help with educational purposes! Every single human on this planet has the choice to choose what they believe in and I believe that strongly with the debate with evolution and god, if a child wishes to believe in god they may, if evolution they may, if both they may!

    Something I was thought in the lab long ago was that both theory’s can worth together and scientists can believe in god just like anyone else.

    I believe in why you’re standing up like this however I believe it is childish to attack the cooperation and in modern society it is a great shame to have a narrow minded individual. Please research your argument from both sides before making a debate on what is and what isn’t, beliefs are something we need but foolishness isn’t.

    I just want to comment on the Noah thingy though, since around the 1960’s scientists (glaciologists) have taken core samples from the Arctic which basically allows us to step back in time and see weather and temperature conditions in the past from thousands of years ago… This also allows us to see climate changes like “flooding”. Also things about the water cycle and continuation of our present climate in the troposphere, the landscape can tell us much about how water has shaped the planet and unfortunately a great flood just doesn’t match up.

    If it not up to me if someone believes in god or not but honest there is so much that people who strongly believe in this one single path should research on as it opens your mind up to so many ideas.

    Spore is a fun and educational game (in a way :P) which allows you to relax, I would much prefer kids playing this then Shoot em up games before bed time! If I had the choice of my children becoming Scientists or mad raving lunatics with guns, I’d pick the first!

    Again, i respect your beliefs :) I believe in god to an extent, just not in the physical form of a “person” (non gender preference) who likes sundays off.

    Hope you take the time to read this but doubt you will but would like to see and hear your comments.

    At the end of the day, it’s a fun game for entertainment. Education is a bonus and I would prefer our next generation to be as open about evolution as with all choices in life, with or without god.

    (Forgive me for the long reply)

  449. Johnon 11 Sep 2008 at 2:51 pm 449

    You are a disgraceful Christian.

    It’s people like you that make other christians look delusional. There are far worse matters int he world that require attention than some video game.

    Get your priorities right.

    It’s just a video game and a well throught out one at that. I probably won’t buy it but to make a whole blog about it……..delusional.

    I HOPE I HOPE this blog of yours is a joke. Becasue as a Christian I find your actions degrading towards the rest of us.

And i quote “And Cain knew his wife; she conceived, and bore Enoch:…” WHERE THE FUCK DID THIS WOMEN COME FROM?!?!?! There are four people one earth Adam, Eve, Cain, and Abel. Now another women??????

    How peapole can believe in the Fictional character God in the bible that i cant under stand. But evry one has there belife and faith. I think that peapole that believe to much in a ideology or a religion lose the knowledge of thinking them self. “One good exemple in that to much belife is bad. There was in poland a communist party member that said he did not belive that a communist run factory could pollute the nature, becouse it was run buy communists and evry one knows that a communist cant do anything wrong.

  466. Tealoveron 11 Sep 2008 at 3:03 pm 466

    I’m just curious as to why a belief in God’s hand creating the world and evolution are by nature mutually exclusive. Why is it that God could not have directed the path of evolution or created the concept of evolution in the first place knowing that the way the world was set out would, in fact, cause all the life that exists today to form in that pattern?

    But then, I think that it’s just a game. I think God wants people to have fun and if making silly, ridiculous creatures that go around evolving weird parts is fun, then where is the harm? It’s not like it’s breaking any of the commandments that were given forth in the Bible. And it’s not really harming anyone who isn’t looking for a reason to be offended in the first place, as far as I can tell.

  467. Religion hateron 11 Sep 2008 at 3:04 pm 467

    You bunch of brainwashed fuckasses. You assault a company of beeing wrong, yet you dont have in mind what they have been taught.
    The question here is: Who decides you are the only ones in the world to be right? There are many religions, and all have different views on life. Accept it!

    Here are some things for you assraped sons of sandniggers.

    If god is allmighty and allknowing, then he should be able to create a stone so heavy that he himself couldnt life it. That indicates he isnt allpowerful. But if god does not apply to human logic and can create this stone so heavy he couldnt lift it but still beeing able to, he would stand over logics, and therefor he cant exist.
    The same goes about the allknowing part. Can god ask himself a question he doesnt know the answere to?
    Those situations creates paradoxes that might only be paradoxes to us humans, and not to good, and as mentioned before. If god doesnt apply to these laws, then he stands above logics and therefor he cannot exist, because, objects who doesnt apply to logics cant exist.

  468. Bethon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:04 pm 468

    No. I will not try to understand your beliefs.

    You are a stupid woman who believes that because God is perfect, and because we were created in God’s image, that we are perfect. What this really translates to, since you are just like us and totally unable to comprehend the idea of perfection, is that you want to think you’re better than everyone else. It is now clear that you are just a miserable, sad, insecure little twat with nothing else to do besides post MULTIPLE stories a day about some guy you’ll never meet who’s doing something that might never have affected you if you had just learned to humbly stand aside and let God take care of him.

    I know this has been said before, but I am now fully convinced that YOU, madam, are the one who believes you are God. I’m not going to say anything more, because just as He will with Will Wright, God will have exactly his way with you. Pay attention to what he says, because at this point being disobedient would be a bad fucking idea.

    Yes, I’m a Christian and I said Fucking. You make me so angry I could scream.

  469. Trion 11 Sep 2008 at 3:05 pm 469

    (descended implying that apes are actually a higher form of life, if you evolutionists are so smart wouldn’t it be ascended)

    Is kind of a rude attack, this is modern English interpretation, if you refer to something in the chain of evolution we refer to it going back in the chain not “up” in the chain (we refer to time lines as going back… not forward, if it was ascending we would be going in to the future, it a simple matter of words in English) [Translate and it will be different]

    Sorry but that comment was unfair, remember a lot of what your using is made by science! Including your computer, the materials used to make micro-chips aren’t natural.

    Plus “monkeys” are overrated, if you studied the physical properties we cold our DNA structure is very similar, it is more than likely a mutation.

    I respect your “fight” against EA, and i wish you the best. But respect scientific study.

    Tri,

  470. Tealoveron 11 Sep 2008 at 3:07 pm 470

    Btw, I seriously doubt that the creator of the game is out to get you. You are posting on the internet and there are plenty of people on the internet that love to make fun of martyrs.

    ((Also, it’s descended instead of ascended because you descend from your ancestors. You are descended from your father and mother, and them from their parents etc. Evolutionists didn’t make the phrase up, they just used an already existing phrase that people were using from lineages.))

  471. Curranon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:08 pm 471

    Ok, so there are all of these “bible games” video games, and no one cares. but when someone makes a game that YOU don’t believe in, then all of a sudden it’s evil. you are just a huge hypocrite. Find something more useful to do with your time.

  472. Bahon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:09 pm 472

    I’ve skimmed over every little thing you have to say against the game, and I have to admit, you’re giving it a good shot, but because you’re making yourself any enemy out of the players, such as myself, i’m now going to have to give my own shot at ripping apart every thing you’ve said.

    First off, though no religion says it is right, is it not possible that by gods will we evolved? Secondly, the game may alow of some stupid folks to make creatures which do not apear very E rated, but there is no design issued straight forward in the game as such. Next, let us take a look at what you’re doing here, you’re trying to tell us all, the whole world, since you’re posting online, that your religion is the only right one in the world; is it not possible you’re wrong? or that they’re all right? or perhaps even, that they’re all wrong? Next let us look at your claim saying something along the lines of you not thinking there may be life further advanced than us; is it not entirely possible, with as many planets and stars as there are, that there may be one civilization thats existed for billions of years longer and has developed more advanced technology?
    I could go on, but i’ve got better things to waste life on than a post i doubt you’ll even look at, since you’re getting flamed so much.

    I suggest next time you wish to bash something because it goes against YOUR god, you think carefuly about where you speak. And it can’t hurt to actualy play the game yourself before making your statements, posting wildly against something which you’ve never looked at yourself is foolish.

    but now I’m like “OMG, Jesus, how can you let this guy live?”
    I don’t like Spore that much as a game, but… you’re a moron, you and your ridiculous religion craps. So, STFU with your damn believies, because God doesn’t care about it, you were one of his FAIL creations, and God is atm playing Spore (Spore God Version).
    You think we, creation of God are perfect, we aren’t. ESPECIALLY you aren’t perfect.
    Being a “good guy” and “going to Heaven” doesnt mean: Pray a lot and forget sex scenes, bla bla bla. It means being good to other people.

    You can call us ignorant about the word of God, and we can call you ignorant about the discoveries of science. You are trying to disprove scientific evidence with stories from the bible while we are saying that scientific studies are more accurate than a book written thousands of years ago. It’s like saying that a thousand year old textbook is more accurate than a modern one; it makes no sense. Furthermore, you are trying to force your religious beliefs onto us while we are only trying to defend our right to believe what we want.

    To further combat your tyranny, let me take your argument in pieces. You say that Earth was created by God, not science. Where’s the proof? Do NOT say that the bible itself is proof enough, I could take the book Harry Potter and say that that is evidence that Dementors exist, but everyone know they don’t. Using the bible as solid proof is the same as using a fictional novel as proof; it doesn’t prove anything.

    Second, you say that God made every creature, no evolution involved. Well, does the bible talk of the dinosaurs? Fossils prove they existed, and if God make all the animals, then where is the talk of dinosaurs? And also, it is my understanding that cats are not mentioned in the bible. Do they not exist? Is my pet feline just a figment of my imagination? That right there proves the bible incorrect.

    Third, you say that the Earth is the way it is due to the great flood. But that is not possible. There is no way that any man or group of people could have ever built a wooden ark large enough to support multiples of every single animal that existed at the time. Furthermore, even if such a large ark existed, how could it possibly float with that many creatures onboard? How would it have possibly been able to avoid leaks and breaks that would inevitably lead to its sinking? How could that many animals possibly have been able to live together for such a long amount of time in such an environment. And also, how could the ark have possibly been able to hold enough food and how would all that waste be removed in time to prevent massive outbreaks of disease? It’s just not possible.

    Fourth, “Never truly believe anything you read on the Internet. There will always be cases of Poe’s Law.” Seriously lady, what the hell is this?

    Now I suppose you could just say that all of these impossibilities are there because God willed it and science cannot prove God doesn’t exist. The problem with that is that no one can prove that God does exist. Furthermore, science has given a logical explanation for every single thing that the bible addresses, and the explanations of science make a hell of a lot more sense than the bible’s explanations. In addition, the bible fails to address many things that we know are true, and fails to give explanation for other things as well. Such as: if God gave man the power over the planet and its creatures, then why do we still fall prey to them? Such as deaths from wild carnivores, rabies from common mammals, the ever present malaria from mosquitoes in Africa, the dangerous allergies that make us wary of bees, etc… If God gave us control, then why are we still at the non-human animals’ mercies? And if evolution does not exist, then what of those fossils of pre-historic creatures? They certainly don’t look like our modern non-human animal companions. Where’s the bible’s explanation for that?

    One last thing: Stop shoving your convoluted beliefs down our throats you bloody jerk. I have dis-proven each of your bible’s facts with the same science you consider so damn inaccurate that it simply must be incorrect. Do you really think that spreading the word of God will do this world any good? What has God ever done for the impoverished children of Africa and the Middle East? What has God ever done for the poor victims of animal cruelty? What has God ever done for peace? More wars have been started in the name of God than I can care to recall.

    We understand your beliefs; it is quite clear to us that your a Christian extremist who’s grown up with these fairy tales. Now can you in turn understand that many of us don’t give a bloody care about your precious bible. The bible gets its trust from blind followers like you who take it too seriously; but we trust science because science has earned that trust through careful studies. Keep your beliefs to yourself if you can’t respect ours.

    All this is stupid. God doesn’t exist, we weren’t created by him, the universe didn’t suddently appear, it was always there.

    Beside, you can’t prove he exist, you just base yourself on a book called the bible some stupid morons wrote in a time that nothing extraordinary happens. Jesus and God are a fairy tale, like the tooth fairy and santa.

    Beside, they are as real as Superman or other comic books.

    The truth: Your beliefs are bs, God and Jesus are just not real.

    Hell God is only a word people a long time ago invented for things they couldn’t explain because they didn’t have science and were a bunch of idiots.

    You are like them

    Now shut up, God isn’t real. If he was, he would probably be laughing at all those idiots who believe blindly in him for faith.

    And when he would see someone god bless america, he would probably wouldn’t bless us if he was real, he would radiate us from the map.

    Truth is, he doesn’t exist, now everyone who believe in that need to get a life and open their eyes.

    This is the best Rickroll ever. It’s just so epic, everyone bitching, cursing at the site’s maker, yet the site itself is nothing but a satire on those same ideals. I’m Agnostic, and I believe in evolution (how can someone not? Proofs everywhere.) However, 90% of the people that have responded to this thread, which is an obvious joke and satire to the ideals of hair brained Creationists.

    Take Xinn above me; he’s obviously reatrded, and cannot read. He typed out all of that stuff, just to try and rip and insult someone making a joke of what he himself is fighting fore.

    Kudos, Xinn, you, and the other 89% of the people posting are just like the Creationists extremists! Never reading anything about the argument, and going right to the “you’re wrong, I’m right” douchebaggery!

  520. Elv02on 11 Sep 2008 at 3:30 pm 520

    Wow, I don’t know what to say. It’s to easy to tear this apart. I mean, first you say that these are your beliefs because you were raised that way and that’s fine. No one is forcing Spore on you. However, you are trying to force your beliefs on us. This is the rediculous part. Other people saying what they think is just to much for you because your the only one who’s right? Come on, if the bible(which is a good book, religious or not) shapped you into a self rightious stuck up person who forces there thoughts on people. Then the Bible failed, because, though it’s a great book, it can be twisted in many ways. I can probably find passages to justify rape, incest,murder,robbing, and pretty much any other crime imaginable. However, I can also find one’s that say things about treating others how you want to be treated and respecting one another. But no, you have to go and use all the misunderstoud things in it.

    Wait, this means I’m pushing my thoughts on you. Damnit.

    How about this: Stop being such a self rightious prick and leave everyone alone, ya?

    P.S. Haven’t played Spore yet but heard it’s ok… What does everyone else think?

  521. Apogeeon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:30 pm 521

    WTF is this shit??

  522. JJon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:31 pm 522

    Oh, and just to make sure everyone knows, Poe’s Law states: “Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won’t mistake for the real thing”

  523. Stefanon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:32 pm 523

    Okay. Just wanted to mention that first of all, Spore isn’t an organized attack on christianity. It’s a computer game. Meant to entertain. Or do you think people are trying to pull off all entertainment media as fact? You might want to have a look at all the other thousands of games gaming industry have produced. Very, very few of them are based on any sort of fact.

    Also, first of all, you seem to base your argument around the word of the bible, or as you call it, the word of god. In one case you quote Genesis 1:2, thereafter saying “So it’s clear that Earth was made by God’s hand, not science.”

    No, it is not “clear”. The book says so, but there’s nothing that says the book sports facts rather than imagination. Also, who the hell ever claimed science created the Earth? Science is a term invented and created by man. Man did not create earth.

    But alright, if you can use that book as a source, I can use any random Winnie the Pooh book as my source. Just because a book says something, doesn’t mean it’s true. And if you would argue that it does, then I’d happily refer you to various scientific texts you can read and “believe” in.

    You also frequently say that things are your “belief”, and you ask us to understand those “beliefs”. Let me quote a dictionary for you:

    “belief (plural beliefs)

    Mental acceptance of a claim as truth.
    (countable) Something believed.
    The ancient people have a belief in many deities.
    (uncountable) The quality or state of believing.
    My belief that it will rain tomorrow is strong.
    (uncountable) Religious faith.
    She often said it was her belief that carried her through the hard times.
    (in plural) One’s religious or moral convictions.
    I can’t do that. It’s against my beliefs. ”

    Belief does not equal fact, or truth. It equals what you *think* is the truth. If something is fact, you need not believe in it. That’s the reason noone goes around saying they believe in chairs, or trees, or mosquitos. Because these things are confirmed to exist, you don’t need to believe in them. Because it’s fact. God, however, is not confirmed to exist, and the words of the bible are not fact. That’s why you believe god exists rather than know he exists. No doubt my posting this will prove rather futile, since it seems a couple of hundred, if not thousand, people already beat me to it. But hey, I had nothing better to do.

    I hope this cleared some things up for you, so you can stop with the whole irrational-rage thing. Also, please don’t pray for me. I’d quite frankly feel a bit offended if you did, since I don’t share your beliefs and don’t want you to speak in my name. Should you persist in your claim that you will pray for everyone of us who don’t believe in the bible, I shall have to create a website called antiantispore.com where I combat you via the internet. I may also sue you for harrassment!

    Thank you.

  524. Joshon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:32 pm 524

    Also, to the guy who was complaining about “Patriot Day”: Lots of people die EVERY day, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be able to make jokes and live our lives. Honor their memories, sure. But have NO FUN WHATSOEVER?

    Maybe it’s a dishonor to them that you are using the internet on “Patriot Day”. Try disconnecting.

    Not to state the obvious, but this game is entirely creation led, your creatures don’t evolve they are altered directly by you (the creator). Their actions are entirly up to you, and there are consequences attached to those actions. But please don’t let something as trivial as the truth get in the way of your depressing little rant.

    Are you next going to start attacking X-Men because it’s based on evolution?
    Spore is a game based on “Let’s pretend you’re ‘God’ and you get to make your own alien race.”

    Ok, last thing, this time directed to the admin’s claim of being hacked.

    My argument against yours still stands because it is quite obvious you still believe everything written in that post. But I do have one more counterargument left in me, directed to this quote:

    “It’s a stupid internet prank that’s about as funny as believing that people ‘descended’ from monkeys (descended implying that apes are actually a higher form of life, if you evolutionists are so smart wouldn’t it be ascended).”

    Descended in this context means ‘to have evolved from’. It is not implying that apes are a higher life form, and so what if they are? Humans aren’t the highers form of life just because the bible says we are. I could give you dozens of reasons why we are below many other non-human animals. Open up your mind you stubborn religious extremist. People with your mindset are a poison to this planet.

    Jesus (no pun intended) people, are you really this thick? Read the entire thing before you start rioting over his “beliefs”. It’s a joke. A gag. You all got rickrolled. And ranting about theology only shows you couldn’t be bothered to read the whole thing, or are too thick to understand humor in it. Kudos to the people who actually understood this.

  532. Jasonon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:35 pm 532

    So you have your beliefs because that’s what you were “raised in”? That’s not independent belief, that’s good ol’ brain washing. For that reason I feel no need to read any more from this site. I hope one day you can learn to think for yourself and choose your beliefs based the evidence available and / or the virtues of the idea in question.

  533. darshon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:36 pm 533

    HAHAHA!!!! RICK ROLL’D!!!! U ROCK MAN!

  534. R3dw0lfon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:36 pm 534

    I read… some of the posts above. I did get all the way through to the rick-roll.

    Background: Half-Scottish, Half Mexican 30 year old Male
    Education: Psychology, English Liturature, Lingusitics, Two years of Bible Schooling and Ministry training.
    Religous affiliation: Christian, anti-denominational
    Relational: Married: Spouse: Female, Vietnamese, Micro Biologist, Devout Christian, Osteopathic Doctor

    Thoughts in order I had them:
    1. its been well established (ancient Greece) that for a constructive argument to take place, two parties have to depart from an equal starting point. It seems that is impossible on the given topic. So what results is many people shouting in varying tones at one another. Through the internet.

    2. The bible is poetic, historical and allegorical. One’s faith describes how one approaches various passages. Genesis can be seen to contradict itself, if taken literally, from one chapter to another. If you reference 2 Peter 3:8, it casts the Lord’s perception of time in a different scale. So I for one have problems taking a very literal interpretation of Genesis 1 and 2.

    3. The anonymity of the internet has killed civility. I’m not even looking for pseudo-intellectual streams of vocabulary. Just some decency towards other people. People disassociated with social consequences for their statements show truly depraved natures. That’s a bummer, but not surprising, I guess.

    4. Neither Science nor Religion can reach a declarative position on the beginning of time as we know it. Both Religion and Science approach the beginning of our time on faith that their current model is the most correct one. The difference is, Science keeps poking at it. Right now, its somewhat amusing that popular culture takes so much pop-science as fact. Alot of the people supporting evolution are actually laughed at by scientists, because actual studies and theories have shifted. Among other things, the more astronomers and physicists discover about our universe, the less it makes sense. As a result, they’re constantly restating theories, testing, and so on. This gives even their guesses a credibility amongst modern thinkers that the non-rigorous approach any meta-physical system takes lack.

    Or: We can’t Identify 97% of the physical universe, but trust us, we’re right! (Not my quote. I got that from my Physicist Ph.D. college roommate.)

    5. Still with me? I really like Scatman John’s songs. They’re a bit catchy!

    6. The heckler’s veto, the burden of faith, and society. On the internet, people shout and defame and use ad homonym attacks to silence those they disagree with. Referring back to point 1, since this is essentially an emotional argument, I guess that works as well as anything. I just find it amusing that one side yells at the other, “That’s not what I believe, You can’t say that!” You pick which side is which. In regards to those of you that ask Christians “keep your beliefs to yourself,” we can’t, sorry. To do so *is against our beliefs.* Some of us may be more annoying than others, but there’s alot of us, so you get that. I’m not sure how one reconciles telling someone to simultaneously keep their faith to themselves when that very faith demands proselytizing as a point of duty. My guess is they don’t.

    Our society is… never mind. Internet.

    7. God and Free will. Its a misguided perception that free will is without consequence. God does give us free will, but that decision always has consequences. Biblicaly, God gives us the opportunity to chose to do any number of things, and we do! But to expect that free will is to expect all of humanity to give license to proceed unchecked is ludicrous. Our society, (Okay, i guess I went back there) is -generally- steered by corporate interest, and the will of the masses, in that order. If, in some insane, post apocalyptic moment all of america leveraged their representatives to amend the constitution and make purple clothing mandatory, the desenting minority could chose to break that new law and wear blue, and face whatever insane punishments went with that.

    I say that to say this: a person with a set of beliefs, whatever they may be, philosophically should absolutely attempt to legislate from those beliefs. To do anything less would be terribly hypocritical. Basically, put your money where your mouth is. Therefor, we get back to where I was before. People of non-belief, or scientific belief can no more expect a person of faith to not act on that faith, than they can expect others not to act on their own beliefs, how ever more substantial they may seem.

    Also, I’m a hypocrite.

    Ken

    Haha awesome. First time I’ve heard Poe’s Law, but it totally makes sense in this case. Im sure there are some Christians that are actually against this game. Christians crack me up with their TEACH GOD HERE AND THERE…yet they can’t even open their minds to grasp a little bit of reality and logic. Good blog

  536. Nickon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:37 pm 536

    Nice work. Poe’s Law indeed. I did figure it was a spoof because I doubt the “concerned Christian mother” would have bothered to put Google Ads on the site, but still, hopefully you made some cash with those while the fun lasted.

    Also, everyone in this thread still thinking this is serious is retarded, and needs to learn how to read. Especially Xinn, who wrote a huge post that actually quotes the line that says the whole thing was a joke, and still doesn’t get it.

  541. R3dw0lfon 11 Sep 2008 at 3:40 pm 541

    Ooops! In all that, I never stated my beliefs! >.<

    I believe that God did things in His way and His time, and that they’re beyond my ability to understand. I’ve seen proofs offered and discovered by other people who’ve invested huge amounts of time into study that I see no reason to question, and I occasionally see those things disproven, or verrifyed.

    Basically: I dunno. The picture I get is at best fuzzy. Guided evolution with occasional bouts of inexplicable newness in the records.

When I realized this had to be a hoax a few nights ago (your video of the girl gave it away), I became incredibly jealous. I wish I had thought of this instead of sitting on my ass playing Spore.

    It really amazes me that you bother cutting up games that are based on other people’s beliefs, because you’re arrogant enough to “know” that your beliefs are the correct ones. I’m sure you’ve “spoken with God”, and been “shown the light”, and that’s all the proof you need to think that you can “protect” others from evil things like Evolution. Well, I have news for you… Evolution happens, whether you believe God has anything to do with it or not is besides the point. Insects can change colours, and breed that way, to match their environment. Ever heard of the Monkey trial? If the Sun wasn’t created before the animals were, how does one know how long it took for those forms to reach their current state? Yeah. I know. Ignorance is bliss.

    You can have all the beliefs you want, but as soon as you dedicate an entire site to encourage others to jump on your bandwagon of ignorance, I have to say something.

    You realize the texts that you are quoting from your scriptures, while obviously not accurate seeing that you jokingly turned a 911 song into scriptures from Genesis 8 (which I find a bit shocking considering how devout you seem to be), were written and re-written over thousands of years by men. Men who were in powerful religious positions who’s primary goal was to control an ignorant population.

    In modern times, information is readily available. (Granted, the entire world is not privy to the internet, but obviously, everyone here has that type of access.) Keeping people in the dark and telling them that there is some omnipotent being watching and judging us is just plain silly. Religion was, and still is, used as a form of control to keep the population under control. It’s like telling your children to behave all year long or Santa Claus won’t bring them presents.

    I was raised in a Catholic family and I know all about “God”, what “God” stands for and why people believe in and worship “God”. But I’m sorry, “God” is just something that makes people feel a little better about themselves and a little less lonely at the end of their day. I don’t need “God” to feel good about myself or live a good life and treat the people I care about with love and respect.

    Now, in all honesty, I don’t have a problem with religion. I truly don’t. I respect all religions. Even Scientololgy, which I view as one of least tempting religions, I have respect for them as a religious sect regardless of the fact that they believe the universe was farted out of Zenu’s rectum. Are you so blind that you think your religion is the one true faith? There are hundreds of different belief systems, and most of them are pretty similar in faith and lifestyle and some of them are pretty backwards compared to what Christians believe in.

    What would you do if you ended up at the “Pearly Gates” and were greeted by a Buddah? Or what if the ancient Greek mythology were the true religion and there were many gods ruling over different domains?

    With so many questions that have not been answered and cannot be answered, how can you say that your faith is the one and only true faith to follow?

    You can’t.

    All you can say is “This is what I believe.”
    You cannot say “This is what I know.” because you don’t “know”.
    Nobody “knows” what the “one true faith” is.
    That’s why I don’t choose a faith or choose to believe in a “God”.
    I believe in humanity, even though it’s not always good, it’s real and shown to me daily.

    Heck, I would worship the Sun before I worshiped an invisible God. At least I know for a fact that the Sun exists and life on earth would not exist without the Sun. How much more powerful of a force could you ask for?

    I mentioned that I do respect all religions, but I cannot have respect for the persons within those religions who are so pious that they are blinded by their own faith that they try to force it on the rest of us. Now, granted, I chose to visit this site out of my own free will because the controversy surrounding Spore fascinates me and since I’m a game developer, I find it grossly ignorant of you to rally against a game that has gone outside the box of what I consider standard game design and created a ground breaking title that is acclaimed by the industry.

    Please re-think what you are doing here. In my opinion, you are not any better than how you view the games creator, Will Wright. Granted, Spore has a large advertising campaign which is reaching more people than your little blog here ever will, but with your stance on religion and what you think the game Spore is doing to our children (or whoever) you are attempting to do the same thing from the other side. And it’s only your opinion that the ideas Spore plants in peoples heads are “bad” or “wrong”. In fact, everything that occurs in Spore is as fictional as the Bible. It’s just based on whatever information they could use to create a game that lightly follows the rules of evolution. It’s not a concrete educational tool that someone could use then walk away with a comprehensive knowledge of the Theory of Evolution. It’s a game. And like all other games, it will never fully translate what occurs in the real world.

    Nice to see that there are so many mature people here that discuss this in a proper manner… behave. Nobody listens to you if you curse people around.
    This is HIS blog at HIS site (as i understand it) and a guy/gal should be able to express their beliefs without having 16 year old people ganking him.

    Anyways… The proof that god has created earth is from a book that has been passed down for ages? Nice… The Bible was a way for people at that time to get sense of it all. That basically goes for most religions really. Hard times and lack of technology, amongst other things, made religion.
    Now we have a sensible theory, Darwin, and we have the science to help us prove it. How can you trust a 4000 old story as fact? Hope nobody finds Lord of the Rings in 5000 years time and believe that Sauron actually exsisted.

  578. Treenyon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:00 pm 578

    It’s a game, and Will Wright has clearly stated that he didn’t want to come down on either side of the creationism/evolution debate though he pointed out that the player assumes the role of what is basically an intelligent designer. The game is not meant to be taken as the literal truth of the cosmos, it is intended as a toy to play with.

    Even if you can’t stand with a majority of other intellectually honest Christians and abandon 7 day creationism for the much better clockmaker theory, there is still no need to bash Spore because it’s fictional setting doesn’t mesh with your dumb world view. Wright even pointed out in an interview that, before Spore was released, has had expected both side of the debate to go nuts. Instead, he said, he had only gotten complaints from atheists up to that point. Whoops! Looks like you’re on the devil’s side of this argument!

  588. C0nt1nu1tyon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:08 pm 588

    I was about to take my hat off to you and congratulate you on the RickRoll but alas its not true.

    Ok lets see………

    1. The Bible is a social document: its about how to live your life, not the be all and end all of scientific discovery, there are some bits that cannot be taken literally (snakes eat mice and small animals, not “dirt” as they are banished to in genesis, you can go to the zoo and watch them do this)
    2. Translation issues: The old testament started off as a spoken document held by the tribes of Israel, now this on its own causes problems, a simple game of Chinese whispers with your children will show this issue in a nutshell, even the Buddhists (who formulated chanting as a memory technique) weren’t able to truly deal with this. From spoken world it was written down into Hebrew then Aramaic then Latin then old English then retranslated under the order of King James (to make it pleasing to his form of Christianity and political climate) then reconstituted into the good news bible. On top of the human error issues with all these changes the meaning of words change, The ancient Hebrews would not have needed to differentiate between “create” and “develop” meaning that an act of god snapping his fingers would have translated the same as him running evolution.
    3. How long is a “day”? Now this is an issue brought up partially by translation (i think the original might translate literally as a time period) but also by the fact that days rely on there being a sun which there was not a the start of genesis
    4. lack of empirical evidence: creationism doesn’t hold water as all the “proof” can easily be counteracted by other theories (and i clarify the different between a hypothesis and a theory here, a theory has been proven where as a hypothesis is speculation waiting to be proven ).
    5. Example of evolution in nature: the flu virus every year mutates to counteract the vaccines that are developed to counteract it, MRSA is an evolutionary jump for survival as is every drug resistant illness that currently plagues our hospitals, the same thing happens with insects and insectersides, mixamatosis in rabbits and a hundred other examples
    6. Radio carbon and geological dating: If genesis is completely true then so is the rest of the old testament, much as it has been calculated from the old testament that the world is only a few thousand years old geological dating has shown this to be completely untrue, oh and while where at it, light from the most distant stars would take longer than this apparent age of the universe to reach us, again more evidence that the bible cannot be used in a scientific context.
    7. the tail bone and the appendix: if we sprang whole from the mind of god how come we have things that just dont do anything?
    8. Dinosaurs: the T-Rex would have any animal now living on the planet for breakfast, saying that these animals lived at the same time as everything else may make an awesome t-shirt (jesus on a velosoraphtor is just the best image ever) but doesn’t hold up on even a passing analysis

    so that’s my critique of your beliefs, I know lots of other people said most of what I said but I just wanted to get it out in a relatively non combative way.

    btw, I’m also NOT denying the existence of a god (as I’m not going to disprove a theory that can be relatively neatly fitted around science just because I don’t like it)

  591. C0nt1nu1tyon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:13 pm 591

    I remain sceptical in both directions, whereas I know people actualyl hold these beliefs the “hacking” argument is equally plausable.
    I still put up my comments because even if its not real its a nice thought exercise considering there is a relativly large chance the US will have a creationist as a VP come november

  592. notactuallyhereon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:13 pm 592

    Spore made me a god along with God, so yeah. Jesus is a pretty cool guy, actually, despite all the hate on him on earth. The Holy Ghost also makes some rather delicious cherry strudel. This place is the shit.

  600. Nick Won 11 Sep 2008 at 4:20 pm 600

    I respect your right to say what you think and to be able to believe what you do, but why are you forcing it on everyone else? Lets get one thing strait.

    A lot of people like this game. MOST of the world believes in evolution. Your quotations of the bible as proof that God created the earth and creatures are the most low levels of deduction possible. The bible says it there for it is true? If that is the case then there is a school for magicians with an exceptional student named Harry and this place exists because it is also in a book. Please understand that while you are free to believe what ever you choose to that forcing those beliefs on the rest of the world is wrong. Imagine if I tried to do the same to you, would you not be angry?

    You are in the minority on this issue. You actions here do not help anyone, make the world a better place, or even enrich your religion. This cause as you have presented it has no factual evidence, just baseless claims, and is the equivalent to some 1337 flame thread on any other internet forum. Simply, you are a troll.

    I respect your right to your beliefs and I would work to see your right to believe in what you do protected. Why won’t you in turn let me believe what I want to? If you are in my eyes free to worship God then you must understand that I am free to believe God does not exist. I am not debating religion and I am not saying you are wrong. I am simply saying that as an intelligent person you owe it to the rest of the world to at least make their own decisions. If someone asks your opinion or approaches you actively for guidance, that is one thing, but to actively force your beliefs on others is wrong.

    Please stop telling me what you think is good for me. I assure you what you think I need to be protected from I do not. In complete honesty I would rather be protected from you.

  613. AzNheadbangeron 11 Sep 2008 at 4:30 pm 613

    LOL

    My hats off to you for the Rick Roll.

    Too bad most of the people commenting are too stupid to see that this is all a well planned hoax.

  614. hey peopleon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:31 pm 614

    I love how you can tell so many people didn’t read the artice and see it is the greatest rickroll of all time

  615. Hookson 11 Sep 2008 at 4:31 pm 615

    And it is written in the greates books of them all:
    “In the beginning the Universe was created.
    This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”

    Just because someone wrote somewhen somehow something down, doesn’t mean that that person was right.

    See, I could write a book that says:
    Well first of all, there was nothing. I mean the void itself. But then, then, oh boy, then there was everything. It was bright and gloomy and all that stuff. And I created it all. I don’t have to explain it to you, cause I created you too. So don’t ask stupid questions and serve me.

    This has not to be true (but it could be)!

    So lady, please, watch and think for yourself.
    Open up your eyes and have a look at the variety of everything.
    Read some books (Darwin or Nietzsche are very good).
    And please, don’t ever start with “Intelligent Design”… never … I’m serious … Or I gotta throw all my creations into the bin and start right away. And I bet you won’t like existing in my bin.

    Peace,
    Hooks

    @Headspace:
    The point that you got rickrolled.

  617. Nice one!on 11 Sep 2008 at 4:32 pm 617

    I cant believe how many of these posters are not finishing the post and still taking the bait!

    Funny site, nice job :)

  618. Eric Rimlon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:33 pm 618

    Sorry for being dense. I’m pretty sure now that it was a brilliant rickroll, disguised as Christian Bible-Thumping. Some of us aren’t as swift as others…

  619. Dustyon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:33 pm 619

    I gotta say I was fooled. Brilliant!

  621. Cpl Darwinon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:36 pm 621

    Yay, it’s all fake. I think. The ending was a little ambiguous.

    If it is a fake, then… Worst. Rickroll. Ever.

    If it isn’t, then… See all comments above.

    Still, there are people that believe as the Admin ‘does’ and go around spouting such nonsense in the name of progression. Art imitating life? Or, uh, the other one?

  622. Gregon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:36 pm 622

    dude you had me there wow im impressed this might go down as one of the best internet hoaxes in gaming history. i take everything back from my other comment

  623. Simonon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:37 pm 623

    Seriously! Are you stupid? I don’t belive so strongly that there is no God that anything you say would change that, a human being would never be able to convince me that there’s a God. What I don’t understand is why you use the damn Bible to try to convince. Like “Oh but it says here that…”, yeah so what? The Bible was written by man a long time ago, when people knew nothing about anything. They belived that there was a God behind everything because that was the only thing they could belive in. Now science has proved countless of things in the Bible to be wrong and there has never been a sign of a God anywhere.

    The Bible was written by man, man created God, not the other way around. Most of the things that’s written in the Bible are false or extremly exaggerated.

    There is no God of any kind.

  624. Jacobon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:38 pm 624

    You sir, win at life. This is one of , if not the, most epic Rick Rolls I have ever seen. Simply brilliant.

    NO ONE AGREES WITH YOU. TAKE A HINT.
    YOU CAN CONTROL WHAT GOES ON IN YOUR OWN HOUSEHOLD AND IT ENDS THERE.
    I FEEL SORRY FOR YOUR SON MISSING OUT ON A GREAT GAME.

    …And, for the record, trying to imply Will Right is pushing his beliefs on America’s youth is complete and utter hypocritical bullsh*t. You guys are the dickholes that insist everyone follow your religion or burn for eternity. PEOPLE CAN DO WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT. THIS IS AMERICA ISN’T IT.
    That creationism is still being taught in schools continues to astound me… and the reason evolution is taught is because it’s a SCIENCE; we’re not trying to refute your little theory, we’re trying to unveil the truth. Insisting that creationism still be taught is childish at best.

  627. dexeronon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:39 pm 627

    Let us not also forget the words of the gospel Matthew:

    6 When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. 7 But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.” 8 When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus. 9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, “Together forever and never to part. 10 Together forever we two. 11 And don’t you know I would move Heaven and Earth. 12 To be together forever with you.” 13 And lo, the disciples did partake of the goodness of Astley, and were well pleased.

    Beautiful…just beautiful…and for all those still responding to this in a serious fashion…WAKE UP. If you’d actually practiced what you all preached, and WERE open-minded enough to listen to someone elses thoughts/ideas before bashing them, you’d have EXPLORED the site and would have figured it out nearly immediately…again, nicely done ;)

  634. Some human beingon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:43 pm 634

    Hey! I think U r just a fake that wants to be pop on internet, so why wont u write with a nickname, show urself…
    First of all, if u have a child U r a creator… u create a creature we call human.
    Now, a game is a game created by man ( like the bible ), but… look, u know that a game is a fantasy? Like those disney films ur child see on TV… Game is like a interactive book where the player can make the words do what he wants.
    If u want people to play attention to u just run in a street without ur clothes… it uses to take more attention than writing a blog like this. If u wanna know there r 7billions people over the world, but not even 1% know what is Spore or what is a game.

  635. Jonathanon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:43 pm 635

    IT’S JUST EPIC

  640. Corporalon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:46 pm 640

    Wow, I’m Christian and I find nothing wrong with this game. This is nothing but propaganda you’re spewing out. And for the record, the Bible does not teach Creationism. It’s what some extremists came up with and claimed to be the work of God.

    Besides, by your argument, Spore should be about Creationism, which not only defeats the game’s purpose, but also would result in offending Evolutionists(Or at least un-accepting ones). So it would be an endless cycle of ignorance. If you want people to accept your choices, than except the choice people made to create the game in that way.

    ALSO, the gaming studio that made Spore is famous for making non-violent games. Spore has a religous, economic, war, and social way to spread across the galaxies(though Economic and Religious aren’t available for awhile). So why did I even take the time to post if you only saw one part of the game and assumed from there?

    ALSO ALSO, don’t swear at this person, it’s ironic if you can’t accept their opinion.

  642. anonymouson 11 Sep 2008 at 4:46 pm 642

    lmao EPIC nicely done
    The only real tell I could see was that you were posting at too fast a rate for it to be genuine, but all-in-all was so seemingly well though-out it looked real. Well played, sir/madam, for the posters are obviously too reactionary and idiotic to see they’ve been trolled at this point. You could probably just keep rolling with this one.

  643. Corporalon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:47 pm 643

    ALSO ALSO ALSO, I have the strange feeling that this is all a lie, as more than half of the christian racialists are pretenders trying to brew up some trouble. W/e.

  644. Jenon 11 Sep 2008 at 4:48 pm 644

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.”

    Well there you go…Maybe you shouldn’t believe everything you were told as a child. I mean, think about it, you could have been a scientologist kiddie and be a loony right now. Maybe its time to really look at yourself and go, do I like being a sheep? Do I like just believing whatever I’m told? Just because you were raised to think Santa Claus is real doesn’t mean you believe it now right? Or do you?

    “zeitgeist on religion 2/4″
    “zeitgeist on religion 3/4″
    “zeitgeist on religion 4/4″

    I’m sure if you are conscious enough you could find yourself to have a look, unless of course you just don’t want to. Then again, blog shite like this on the internet and you should be willing to read all pages of the book.

    Best. Page. On. The. Internet. EVER!! I think I <3 you!

    The best satire is the kind that doesn’t wave a big obnoxious flag reading “THIS IS SATIRE YOU NUMBNUTS”… and even though scores of people have “outted” the humor in the comments already, you’ll continue to get many more comments of people who don’t get it. Even though we’re all making fun of them right to their faces. They’re just in such a big hurry to rant and rave they don’t take one single second to read 3 comments in.

    Eventually you’ll probably need to change the post title to “This is a RICK ROLL”… and even then… people still won’t get it.

    Big Epic WIN (for you).

    You had the whole Spore community in your hands, made them believe in something that’s one big hilarious joke and showed the whole “creationist” community how blind they are.

  685. ProDarwinismon 11 Sep 2008 at 5:23 pm 685

    I understand your beliefs. I do. Your religious. You believe in God and the Bible.

    Nothing wrong with that, after all, the First Amendment says you have a “Freedom of Religion”. However, I have a HUGE problem with your religion thinking everything they say is 100% THE TRUTH and everyone else IS WRONG.

    You people go spreading propaganda claiming “The media is secular and unholy!” “It’s brainwashing kids!!!”. You don’t like it, go talk to your Church about it, because a large portion of the people reading this blog don’t give a damn about this BS.

    Last time I checked, this isn’t the Midevil Age, the Church does NOT have control over everyone’s lives, and America is NOT a Communist country. So therefor, GTFO our Internets with your propaganda.

  686. Bumbleron 11 Sep 2008 at 5:24 pm 686

    There is nothing wrong about believing in God but seriously, you are imprinting your beliefs on something that wasn’t meant to hold any to begin with. This is a game, meant for entertainment based on the creative capacity of the player. CREATIVE, FICTION. The game, or the games creator, isn’t saying that this is how the true events in history happened or anything close.

    You are fighting a work of FICTION, a story, a creative tool for people to enjoy designing FICTIONAL creatures and watch them act in a FICTIONAL world. It’s like your fighting a fictional book.

    Guess who else told fictional stories, JESUS. Jesus told a number of PARABLES, which ARE FICTION, in a parable case it is meant to share a certain ethical message. The point of this paragraph is to say a FICTIONAL story is not LYING or trying to tell you the truth. SPORE is a FICTION but not a PARABLE

  687. JTTon 11 Sep 2008 at 5:24 pm 687

    So this was really just a hoax after all. And I thought that this website could be turned into a medium of healthy debate over the validity of the genesis version of the creation story. But since even the author of the site doesn’t beleive what he/she is saying (as made evident by the Rcik Astley references), and the fact that the debate is almost entirely one sided this can not be the case.

    You seem ignorant to the fact that not everyone believes in god or that god created earth according to the words of the bible. Spore does no more to disrupt your beliefs than these comments do. If you’re confident in your faith, then a simple game makes no difference. Stop railing against OUR beliefs. Did you ever think of that?

    Furthermore, not believing in god does not make non-believers worse than you. Your arrogance indicates that you seem to think one is better than the other.

  696. sebason 11 Sep 2008 at 5:30 pm 696

    man fuck off.

    the guys spend 7.5 years to make this game. MORE THEN SEVEN YEARS TO CREATE THIS GAME!!!

    it is a game man. entertaiment! go read your bible if that is what you like. i am a christain myself true. but spore is art and has nothing to do why bij beliefs.

    look to the band slayer. the singer is also a christian. and the sing about satans en that jesus can fuck off and die. but the singer sees it as art.

    i laugh about lyrics about satan’s and stuff.

    so why don’t you laugh about the silly game spore? spore is way beter then GTA that game made people kill each other believe me.

    Its unfortunate that you’ve gotten so many insult and/or juvenile posts on your blog. I certainly hope you take the time to clean out the more egregious posts, especially those containing foul language.

    That said, while I am an evangelical Christian, and I take my beliefs very seriously, I fundamentally disagree with your perspective on this game. I hope you’ll read and consider an alternative take on both Mr Wright’s game as well as the old battle between creationism and evolution.

    First, I think you unfairly pit ’science’ against ‘faith,’ as though the two cannot coexist. In fact, many of the earliest men of science were also men of faith. Galileo has been famously cited as having said “I refuse to believe that the same God who gave us reason and intellect intended us to forego their use.” Gregor Mendel, who is widely considered to be the father of genetics, was a monk. While it is true that many view science as an alternative to faith, there are also many (like myself) who believe that science complements faith; I believe God created a world that follows certain rules (i.e., gravity won’t suddenly ’switch off,’ everything is made of molecules which in turn are made of atoms, etc), and science is the study and observation of those rules.

    Second, it is a fact–not a theory–that some lifeforms change over time. Virii and Bacteria ‘mutate’ on a regular basis, causing them to be immune to antibodies that would kill their prior forms. Granted, a small change in a virus is a far cry from the claim that a fish can evolve legs over time and walk out of the ocean, but the fact is, your assertion that “God [created] all the creatures [without] creatures ‘evolving’ into other creatures” simply can’t be factual. Whether this causes you a crisis of faith or not is of course your own prerogative.

    Third, I think you can believe both that the earth is older than 6000 years and in the Bible. While it is true that the Bible describes creation as taking 6 days (plus one day off), it was not until day 4 that the sun was created. A day is generally defined as a full rotation of the earth as measured by the relative position of the sun. That means that you are making a very specific temporal argument based on a vague passage of scripture about how long something took before measurable time existed! You are, of course, free to believe whatever you will, but I certainly wouldn’t base my faith on something so tenuous.

    Finally, the game Spore really makes a better case for intelligent design (the popular Christian response to evolution) than it does for evolution. Consider: according to the theory of evolution, the earth existed for a gazillion years (whatever :) ), creatures mutated randomly, and these mutations were either positive, resulting in that form of the critter out living his siblings, or negative, resulting in that form of life getting eaten by the nearest predator. But that isn’t what happens in Spore. In Spore, an intelligent being (the player) creates a creature. That creature is not the result of an accidental mutation. Rather, that creature has been created by a being who cares about its well being, and he or she designs that creature to best be able to survive its environment. How is that not creationism?

    Spore is just a game.
    You looks like an crhitiam version of a fanatic muslim that condemns all that ins’t recorded in their holy book.

    I’m a christan too, but I believe in the Darwin’s theory. And It makes God’s work even beautier, cause It shows that God is the intelligence behind the nature’s way. God is our universe, our world, our nature everything. So when the Bible says that he made us just like him, It said that he made us from the nature, the spiritual nature that’s in everything.

    So… It’s a pity for you to view the world in such fanatic way.

Science, I would remind all those who oppose this satire without realizing it’s satire, involves reading the entire page. For those of faith who came to flame this overzealous ‘fundamentalist,’ know that there are many, many people who truly think this way, and take action over more serious subjects, such as the dictating of people’s lives.

    “I don’t have these beliefs just because I want to, I have them because they are the beliefs that I was raised in.”

    that is what someone could call indoctrination, no?
    thats why no one (yes especially parents) should be allowed to “teach” kids about their own beliefs before they are able to make an informed decision about what they are being “taught”. Kids simply will - up to a certain age - take their parents / authoritative figures “teachings” for the truth, no matter how ridiculous (”mommy, where do babies come from?” - “storks, shut up”) these “explanations” are.
    the more elaborate the explanation, the longer one needs to dig through them to get to the base of them. you obviously never got to the point of doubting anything about what you where taught or - sad thought - are simply not intelligent enough to do so, even at an age where you are allowed to raise children of your own (which i honestly belief you have proven you should not be allowed to because you have a bad inflence on your child). Dawkins called this a “different form of child abuse” and after reading your blog i start to belief. THAT is what you did for yourself by putting yourself out here.

    and your pathetic begging along the lines of “please let me be an ignorant, judgmental, hateful (the gay thing, remember?), self rigthous person and ignore the fact that I put my beliefs on the internet and in essence insult everyone who does not agree with me and dont tell me im wrong because i know im not because i was taught all my life that im not by people who share the same exact beliefs” is simply that - pathetic. (circular reasoning, again)
    do you really expect anyone to go more easy on you just because you plain out tell everyone that you base your LIFE on a two thousand year old book of contradictory analogies and take it for literal truth?

    by your reasoning, your believe in chrisitanity is true because your family told you that it is true because it is written in a book that says it is true. so how exactly does this make your belief more “true” than that of a raised muslim? i mean other than your belief in the book that says you are right?
    i could grab any fantasy novel that claims somewhere in the text that it is a true story, teach it to my kids as the truth and their belief would have have the same same validity as yours - none whatsoever. because proving the bible to be factual is something no one ever managed to do, other than to all ready believing christians.

    CIRCULAR REASONING IS NOT HELPING ANY SO-CALLED FACT-BASED ARGUMENT!

    “It’s these teachings that I’ve spent my life learning, believing and becoming, that have made me the woman that I am today.”
    thats just negative advertisement for christianity.
    because when i look at the comments here and the perception of your blog on the internet, the consensus is that you are an ignorant person of seemingly low iq and the tendency to whine when someone questions you in stead of thinking abut the questions raised.
    If THAT is what christianity made you (you just said so) than you just pissed off the pope and any other christian leader - yay, go moronwoman!

  741. StonerMk2on 11 Sep 2008 at 6:07 pm 741

I dont belive in god, i couldnt give a rats ass honestly, people like you are no better then the terrorists that attack countries for not being Muslim. I fucking hate extremists, so its a game about evolution, get the fuck over it, get a life, go pray, instead of wasting 10 minutes of my life reading why video games are “bad”.

    Hominids (humans) did not descend from monkeys or apes or anything alive today. We share a common ancestor with apes and monkeys. It’s a pet peeve of mine when someone denounces evolution because “how could we have evolved from monkeys??”

    okay, i believe that everyone believes in so many different things as a sense of comfort - not so much that there is something there… but when there is crisis or something it will be passed off, in religious worlds, as a test. Myself, I’m atheist - and have an interest in science.

    I’m young, and haven’t really researched too much into religion - but i’m sorry, from anything that i’ve seen it’s just … well there’s so many things i could say but i don’t want to cause offence into others believes. the way is see it is that it’s a fraud (for example: why would a church (say in america) ask for offers … being money… when if you believe in something why would you need to fund something? you don’t fund the easter bunny or the toothfairy do you? it’s just something you believe (or don’t)).

    Also, in reply to this whole [pointless] website…. the evolution theory has pretty much been proven, with all different research has gone on, oh and i guess this Large Hadrons Collider probably doesn’t help ;-).

    Spore is a fantastic game, i bet you haven’t even played it as it’s so “outrageously against religion” and thus you haven’t actually experienced the creativity and fun that this game actually has… hours of gameplay - it’s a absolutely amazing concept of a game that no one has really done - How comes there wasn’t a “Anti Grand Theft Auto” when that’s killing woman, police, innocents, stealing, promoting all evil things… hmm.

    chances of you reading this are so slim, considering there are over 700 replies to this monstrostity that is. but hey, that’s that…

    animals, okay they were “created by god” then tell me, what are all these bone formations you find in museums, you know - dinosaurs lol

    “21. The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. And never gonna give you up.
    22. “Never gonna let you down.”
    23.”Never gonna run around and desert you.”
    24. “Never gonna make you cry.”
    25. “Never gonna say goodbye.”
    26. “Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.”
    27.”Never truly believe anything you read on the Internet. There will always be cases of Poe’s Law.”

    I take my hat off to you.

    GOD IS NOT REAL, Nothing can be all-powerful and good, If there was a god he wouldnt let people get raped, murdered or get sick, hes a myth. I feel sorry for the people who waste there life worshiping a fictional thing, trying to get into heaven which also does not exists, when you die you go into a never-ending sleep its that simple, no bright light, just black and if your lucky a dream.

    Okay, the rickrolling was epic. XD.

    Though I myself don’t quite agree with your points, I think that everyone’s entitled to their opinion, and to believe what they wish to. At least, in America, and in other nations for sure.

    Wow, it’s hilarious that people are still getting upset at it.
    I love you!
    Whoever you are, your satire is brilliant!
    Much like Clamism.

    I think actually that shes right. Stop Spore! Stop Will Wright!
    For God sakes let us burn these heretics and call upon the inquisition… this is truly christian! like our ancestors in the dark age!
    You say that we shall unterstand YOUR believe, but youre not understands and respects OUR believes, this is really ignorant isnt it?
    I dont understand why every christian is crying about religious tolerance, but on the other side they show NO tolerance to other believes! Sorry but Christian are the real devils on Earth!

    that is wonderful for you, but truth be told, what has that to do with spore? or me? or anyone else?

    You bring into your home, that which you desire for you and yours.

    The world should not be here to conform to your beliefs. YOU believe in the bible..and that is fine.. I do not.. nor have I a wish to, in the time of the world and faiths/religions.. christianity though.. 2000 yrs old.. is really not the oldest religion.. in the lifespan of man it is reaching middle age in religion..

    I am not even sure if christianity has the greatest number of people.. I do not think so.

    And Christianity has many offshoots as well, no one takes the bible in the exact same way.

    I say, you do not like spore? fine, it is a game, do not buy it and teach your children to avoid it. *I* do not mind it, I have the right to see it, purchase it.. use it for myself and my children.. none of your business.

    Thats how it should be, and I hope remains to be. Your faith is yours, keep it out of my home..

    My faith is mine, none of your business.
