as grateful as i am i am here to tell you all to ban team fortress 2 (abbreviated as TF2) for the following reasons

i discovered about it this weekend when my 15 year old son charlie brought home his friend and they were playing on his friend's laptop a game where it's nothing but killing, bad words, god bashing, anti-american propaganda, and worst of all HOMOSEXUALITY

first off this is their artwork they use to advertise to the MASSES



as you can see, they all are posed to look threatening (i guess that's what boys like these days)

there is also blantent homosexuality (when the doctor heals his patients they all say things like "i love this doctor" or "get behind me doctor!")

they made a character that looks like a soldier and he talks about god's world being his ("this is my world, you are not welcome in my world!") when i heard this i was MORBIDLY SHOCKED and appalled and ashamed of my son and he knew it

i was wondering why my son was getting into fights and after i saw this i banned him from ever seeing his friends

if you see your child playing this, tell them to uninstall it and watch him do it!!!

hope this helps parents out so your child doesn't stray far from god!

Your just mad because you were born in a different time when video games were "non violent" but Gabe Newell is not the devil because he makes VIDEO GAMES not Hellish crappy stuff i hope you learn that video games are a great part of society and that tf2 is also not homosexual. CUZ THE MEDIC IS A MEDIC OBVIOUSLY PEOPLE ARE GOING TO LOVE WHAT HE DOES.

You're confused, dear. Gays love what he does because he does gay stuff with them. True Christians™ join the Lord Christ in hating the Gays (Leviticus 18:22).

I would answer to you, but I don't know who you are. I only know that you like donuts (that's fine) and you are atheist (that is not fine)


Please go to the intro forum, and introduce yourself. Maybe later we can give you an answer.


As an alternative, you can read the truckload of posts that have answered what you are asking already. Your choice, lady.

Personally, we have nothing against gays.

God does, though:

Leviticus 18:22 - Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.

Leviticus 20:13 - If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

They are just games everyone, there are games for everyone, for children, teens, and adults.
You shouldn't let children play this game, because obviously it's not for kids, but for people that are 16 years old, sooo, yeah...

[WhoLikeChurch]

To paraphrase Ralph Nader, homoerotic games are unsafe at any age.

Sorry, I am missing the argument to support your statement. Please expand, and quote the Bible often. Thanks.

Don't you have some homework to look after?

[mikmalk]

Are you guys serious? honestly, your calling TF2 gay? TF2 is probably the polar opposite, and even if they were gay, doesn't your stupid god love everyone? Honestly there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with being gay. People who are gay are just that, people! Just like there is nothing wrong with being a Christian! you guys are people to! They cant control whether or not they fall in love with the same gender! Just like you cant control whether or not you love god, or your family. I don't believe in the bible, but I do believe in the story's it tells. What I can take from the story's are, everyone loves everyone, and if you cant deal with that, than shut the frick up and don't make other people feel like there not important. You wouldn't want your kids to be made fun of in school for being a Christian, and being made fun of makes people do terrible things, like commit suicide! You wouldn't want your kids to kill themselves would you? and committing suicide is a sin so, yeah! Next time you make fun of gay people or anyone for that matter, you should put yourself in there shoes! you might make them do terrible things! and if you make them hurt themselves or kill them selves, that kind of leaves you responsible! And that's a sin to.

And you just proved you've never read the Bible.


So why should anyone listen to anything you have to say on the subject?

No, He does not. As per Psalm 5:5, The foolish shall not stand in thy sight; thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

Honestly there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with being gay.

Yes, there is. In Leviticus 18:22 we read, Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind, it is abomination.

People who are gay are just that, people!

Yes, they are people. People who--according to the Bible--are going to hell. If they were not people, God wouldn't bother to send them to hell. God didn't set up hell to punish amobeas and advarks; He set up hell to punish people engaging in abominations.

I don't believe in the bible, . . .

That's oddly comforting considering how little you know about it.

. . . but I do believe in the story's it tells.

That statement makes less sense than anything I have ever read. And I have read a lot of nonsensical things in my day. Are you by chance equating the Bible with the Muppets? Wherein Kermit isn't a real frog, but he nevertheless dispenses a folksy wisdom that we can benefit from in our everyday lives when dealing with porcine divas and ursine comedians?

What I can take from the story's are, everyone loves everyone. . .

Really? Did Cain kill his brother Abel because he loved him? Did Joseph's brothers sell him into slavery because they loved him? Did King David's son, Amnon, rape his half-sister, Tamar, because he loved her? Actually, according to 2 Samuel 13:1, that is precisely why Amnon raped Tamar. It was only after he raped her that he went from loving her to hating her. See 2 Samuel 13:15 to learn about that fascinating about face.

Speaking of King David, it may not have been love that motivated him to cut up a bunch of people with less than surgically sharp instruments. Note 1 Chronicles 20:3 -- And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem. According to 1 Chronicles 19:4, he killed all the men, women and children in several cities because that region's king harassed some of David's messengers by shaving their beards off and humilating them with the Iron Age equivalent of depants-ing.

Lest you think that was just King David being a little hot-headed, The Lord God Almighty commanded David's predecessor, King Saul, to wipe out everybody in the neighboring country of Amalek. Even the livestock were on God's kill list that day. 1 Samuel 15:3 -- Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep and ass.

. . . Next time you make fun of gay people or anyone for that matter, you should put yourself in there shoes! you might make them do terrible things! and if you make them hurt themselves or kill them selves, that kind of leaves you responsible! And that's a sin to.

That's a pretty significant accusation there. The idea that I can make anyone do anything suggests that I have some serious influence. I'm just a nerdy little bibliophile who has actually read the most impactful book in human history. Unlike me, God can make people do all sorts of things as demonstrated in Numbers 31:17. Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. The chapter continues with God instructing His followers to keep the virginal young women alive because they can be used for sex.

But listen to silly me-- going on and on about the all those stories in the Bible that you "believe in" but don't "believe" and presumably know in exhaustive detail. Instead, I should be hearkening to your words, and making sure that I don't encourage people to do "terrible things".

In addition to looking to you for moral guidance based on your expert knowledge of the Bible, I can also use you as a grammar resource when pondering the correct usage of "your" over "you're"; the proper plural of the noun, "story"; "there" versus "their"; and finally, is it "to" or "too"?


By the way, kudos on the your choice of the subjunctive of the verb "to be" in the third sentence of your little diatribe.

Indeed they are, friend! We humbly serve the Lord thy God by showing them the errors of their ways! Tell us about your walk with Christ! How do you expose the evils of such soul-destroying games as TF2 to turn people away from Satan and into the bosom of the LORD?

Actually I don't. This game has nothing wrong with it other than a violent theme, that shouldn't necessarily be played by anyone under 16. Otherwise its just a comical wacky game. I noticed there is also a thread for the game Overwatch. I don't understand how that game of all games could be considered bad. I honestly believe some people here need help.
