Christian group attacks Nintendo Wii

As Kotaku reports, Ethur, a radical Christian ministry in California, launched a smear campaign aimed at Nintendo’s new gaming console through it’s anti-pornography website The Porn Talk. The headline is “The Wii’s Dirty Little Secret.” Apparently this “dirty secret” is that it’s wifi enabled and can surf the Internet.

A more interesting secret, however, is The Porn Talk’s backing. They go pretty far out of their way to hide their ties to Ethur. Even when they do mention it in the “about us” section it’s only refered to as “non-profit organization called Ethur that exists to launch culturally relevant initiatives,” with no mention of it’s religious affiliation. They have a bigger “dirty little secret” than the Wii does.

    It sounds strange, but “this “dirty secret” is that it’s wifi enabled and can surf the Internet” is essentially what they’re saying. They’re attacking Nintendo because the Wii can go online, and children could potentially look at porn on the Internet.

    Fucking morons.

    Just more nutcases screaming “no to freedom of choice”.

    Maybe it is time we as a race began to believe in each other, rather than placing our salvation in the hands of deitys and their earthly mouthpieces.

    Of course, the world would be a safer place without pornography. All those people out there that use pornography today will not need another outlet if pornography is banned. Why would they, surely they will just become born again christians……

    The human psyche is rather like a balloon, squeeze it in one spot, and a bulge appears sonewhere else.
