Should they have ? Without the depiction of blood, even as humans were shown in the game being shot at close range, was the game somehow more wholesome than other video games that more realistically depicted the nature of graphic - bloody, that is - violence ? The point is open to legitimate debate although even the youngest from the age range the game is being marketed to, 13 year old teenagers, have by that age almost certainly seen rivers of gore on television and in movies and so can, presumably, imagine blood missing from the "Left Behind: Eternal Forces" game quite effectively. However, these promotional images showed no blood at all. The images depicted, quite literally, an orgy of violence. Installments from Jonathan Hutson's groundbreaking Talk To Action series, on the "Left Behind: Eternal Forces" video game, have been read so far by several hundred thousand people, and until early in November 2006 the series was illustrated by images, from the game in play, of soldiers firing at close range at civilians and of piles of corpses building up in the NYC streets, that had been widely disseminated by the Left Behind Games company to promote its new video game. The game allows players to command the ( satanic ) armies of evil and also seems to impart the message that the cost of virtual killing in the game can be mitigated by repetitively pressing a gaming joystick button. A FOF website, "Plugged In Online" has called the product "the kind of game that Mom and Dad can actually play with Junior-and use to raise some interesting questions along the way" In contrast, Focus On the Family has just endorsed "Left Behind: Eternal Forces" video game, in which, according to Talk To Action contributor Jonathan Hutson, "Christian militias wage physical and spiritual warfare using the power of prayer and modern military weaponry to convert New Yorkers and kill those who resist.".
But, Spongebob Squarepants appears the apotheosis of family values, displaying exceedingly high moral and ethical standards and taking great pains to avoid hurting anyone's feelings let alone causing any sort of physical injury. Summary : James Dobson, founder of Focus On The Family, has used his prominent position to inveigh against such perils as the alleged use of "Spongebob Squarepants", to promote a supposedly "pro-homosexual video".
