Bibleman

I mean how wrong can I be?  Back in an October blog I made a comment that Christians would probably soon be marketing a new super hero to replace Jesus and little did I know at the time that Bibleman was already on the scene.  And he wasn't just fighting evil and all sorts of badness in the world, he was vertically integrated in the young consumer market.  He has action figure friends, costumes, a sword "of the spirit", and of course a Biblegirl.  Doesn't that just freak you out of your pew?

It's one thing to consume for the god of your choice but it is quite another to capitalize on the fears of others to make a fast buck under the guise of serving Christianity.  Take a look for yourself at this appalling video game trailer of Bibleman going after the worst villain of all--Whacky Protester.   

No, I'm not kidding!  The religious "love thy neighbor" crowd is teaching young children to use force (and the bible of course) to make sure that God's word makes the world a better place, even if it has to kill everything to do it.  Fortunately, it has to be one of the ugliest video game products to ever hit the market so I am not concerned about huge amounts of people buying this. 

What is frightening though is the titles of the videos.  Whack Protester is in "A Fight for Faith" and Biblegirl was introduced to the audience in "Breaking the Bonds of Disobedience."  I haven't watched any of these videos so I can't say just how scary they are.  But if the trailer is an indication of what Bibleman and his flexible faith healers are up to then we should all say immediate prayers to our god or goddess of choice.
