Dear John,

The Game" left behind eteranal forced" comes out just now!
"In one cataclysmic moment, millions around the world dissapear"
They write: "IN STORES ON NOV 7TH" (sic)

Pastor David Meyer wrote in his latest newsletter:
"Earlier this year, the Los Angeles Times featured a story entitled
"Converting Video Games into Instruments of God." In the article, it
told about the Tim LaHaye game called "Left Behind Eternal Forces."
Tim LaHaye fully endorsed this video game saying, "We hope teenagers
like the game; our real goal is to have no one left behind."

The dialogue of the game includes people saying, "Praise the Lord", as
they blow infidels away. The game is described as follows: "You are on
a mission - both a religious mission and a military mission - to
convert or kill Catholics, Jews, Moslems, Buddhists, gays, and anyone
who advocates the separation of church and state - especially
moderate, mainstream Christians. Your mission is to conduct physical
and spiritual warfare; all who resist must be taken out with extreme
prejudice. You can be the Christians blowing away the infidels, and if
that doesn't hit your hot button, you can be the Antichrist blowing
away the Christians."

Troy Lyndon, CEO of Left Behind Games, had the following to say about
the bloody aspects of this video game: "The game's Christian themes
will grab the audience that didn't mind the gore in 'The Passion of
the Christ' movie." (41)"
