Kickstarter game haunted by Satan

The game in question is "Bible Chronicles: The Call of Abraham".

www.kickstarter.com/projects/phoenixistu...-the-call-of-abraham

It fell short of its funding goal and while many projects run low on time and money, this game is indeed involved in a struggle of a different kind:

"If Satan is rallying some of his resources to forestall, delay, or kill this project, I think, this must be a perceived threat to his kingdom," adds Ken Frech, a religious mentor to the project. "I fully would expect something like this to have spiritual warfare. Look at the gospel accounts of demons and so forth. That's reality. Many Americans don't believe it anymore. That doesn't change reality."

That's good stuff. I hate it when Satan personally steps up and stops your game from being funded... and here I thought he just sent crappy Christmas presents.

I could go on and on about this. There are tons of people in Lubbock who think this way about challenges and failures. When I'm at the coffee shop I hear bits of all kinds of mind bending, hardcore evangelical Christian, conversation.

Gary Sax teeters close to the abyss of heresy!

Looking to get tied to a stake, sir?

Cut to: Satan, in a boardroom talking to demons sitting around a big table.

"I think think I need to tell you how much of a threat this Kickstarted bible game is, gentlemen. IT MUST NOT SUCCEED!"

(Belial holds his phone under the table, removes his backing from the project.)

Gaaaahhhh, don't they know there ain't no Devil there's just God when he's drunk?

I stole that line from Tom Waits.

I think Satan is getting ready to launch a competing project on indiegogo next week.

Wait a minute, considering the problems that some Christians seem to be having with Cosmos shouldn't they be giving equal time to Satan anyway... just to be fair?

I actually would totally play a biblical game that pitted God and his armies against Satan and his. Some kind of revelations thing... that could be really cool and there is a great mythology available there with a lot of history to it.

They could even sell it in the Vatican gift shops!
