Manhattan's skyline is smoldering. In the streets, the true believers are fighting to the death against the forces of evil, consisting of rock stars and atheists led by the anti-Christ, the leader of a UN-like organization. Ordinary New Yorkers, Jews included, have little choice: They can either convert or be killed. All this is taking place in a new video game, "Left Behind: Eternal Forces," created, ironically, by a team consisting of Jews who now say they believe in Jesus.
The countdown to the launch of Left Behind: Eternal Forces into minds of evangelical youth to prepare them for the coming religious war, is now underway.
While many will no doubt play the new video game, like any other game, others in the game's target market will unwittingly experience an indoctrination in the idea that the failure to convert the targets of religious prostylitization justifies killing them.
Nevertheless, the game's release is tied to the Christmas shopping season, suggesting that the evangelical Christian commercial marketplace is being harnessed to drive a dangerous form of Christian supremacism: Dangerous to religious minorities, as well as members of incorrect sects. Arguably, it undermines and prepares for aggression against constitutional democracy itself, and foundational ideas of religious equality under the law.
Talk to Action has been a leader in reporting on these aspects of the game. Media are taking increasingly taking notice of the "game" as well.
