Just when i think the slide toward theocracy can't get worse: the Left Behind video game. Now you have the choice to play a 13-year-old prayer warrior blowing away anyone who resists your attempts to convert them, or you can play a minion of the AntiChrist. It may have been naive of me, but I really didn't think that the violence of modern-day video games was something the Religious Right wanted to co-opt—they've been telling me for years that Grand Theft Auto will rot my brain, but apparently if virtual bloodshed's done in the service of the Lord it's good clean fun and great training for the future. I would be speechless if it didn't frighten me so much.
