Lot's 'O Gore in that one!]]>Oct 24th 2007 10:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/
I can't wait to play resistance. I just got a PS3. Well 3 as the first 2 broke, well the number 1 never even worked. I have been too busy on Heavenly Sword but I finished that yestarday and haven't even put in Resistance yet.

Getting back to the topic. I am english and I find the CoE offensive. I don't care about religion and I wish everything would stop coming back to it. It is like Hitman 2 when Muslims complained about the ending and they had to recall the game and change the ending.]]>Oct 24th 2007 11:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 11:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 10:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/

But, in the slight chance that I'm wrong, and you do have to pay the church to join up in their anti-alien force, then yes, Sony did give them mroe business.]]>Oct 24th 2007 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/How many people at any church have been denied the use of the facilities because they weren't a paying member?

I'm not a paid up "member" of my local C-of-E church, but I still take my toddler to their baby group on occasions and have never paid a bean. I have taken the occasional packet of biscuits - hob nobs or gingers preferred. So that's one example.

As for Starbucks, I've yet to ask for a skinny latte for nothing - I do suspect we all know the outcome of that test. ]]>Oct 24th 2007 11:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 11:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/

and thats why you don't understand religion.
When a catholic diocese is ordered to pay out millions of dollars for an abuse case do you think that money comes from a magic church money factory?]]>Oct 24th 2007 2:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 3:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/So in theory neither catholic nor protestant.

Read the back story the guy was looking for a "substantial donation" by ways of an apology. How can we take clergy seriously when they damn out one side of their mouth while looking for backhanders out the other.

These people are losing their relevance in the world and so grasp to whatever they can to make noise, when most of us have long stopped listening to middle age men who've dedicated their lives to an empty fantasy. One that isn't nearly as much fun as the fantasy any console can provide, and is decidedly more gory if you believe the bible. ]]>Oct 24th 2007 10:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/Oct 24th 2007 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/church-forgives-sony-for-copying-manchester-cathedral-kinda/
I'm sure the clergy is happy when kids are running around talking about how they fragged an alien on pulpit. Just the imagery that they want people to remember....

I simply can't imagine Bishop VP of Sales and Reverand Marketing Guru sitting down and working out which product lines to pimp off of this saga. "Bibles or Holy Water? Cry me a river, man"!

Can I suggest you simply take stock that they kicked up a fuss because a place they consider to be holy and revered (by them) was used for a shoot-em up style videogame.

(And no, I'm not even slightly religious - I just think people are missing the r-e-s-p-e-c-t point here).
