    MSNBC.com columnist Tom Loftus has tackled the subject of games and theology in a story posted today:

    God in the Console

    Loftus does a good job of quickly surveying the area of games and religion. He also quotes buzzcut!

    I'll be the first to say that my thoughts on the subject have only just scratched the surface. In fact, the buzzcut article on the topic of games and theology was intended as a placeholder to remind me to come back to the subject for further thought. With Loftus' article as motivation, I'm going to return to the subject soon to collect some additional ideas and see what people think.

    If you have ideas, please contribute--whether stories or comments, let's hear your thoughts.

    I was shocked that people today make comments like this, "There's actually a pretty positive message in games like Grand Theft Auto, Doom, the Sims." David Thomas i don't understand how something so brutal, so horrific can be considered a "positive message." You want to make a difference in society? Leave knowing you made the world a better place? Then get on the right track. i'll be praying for you. Kids need some light, a reason to live. You're NOT helping.

    Praying for you in LA, CA.
