Bible vs Mainstream
In the article entitled ''Bible Games' instead of 'Grand Theft Auto?'' by Jennifer London discusses how, Christian video game developers like, Tom Bean, President and CEO of Digital Praise wants to change how the mainstream video game market impacts young children and young adults. Games such as Grand Theft Auto displays a very raunchy image of violence, sex, and drugs. When Grand Theft Auto first came out, I have to say I was very entertained by the graphics and to see how far technology has come in such a short amount of time. However I have to agree with the idea of children playing wholesome, fun, and educational video games. We're in this era where children are lacking in communication skills, so why not have them learn from the Bible. Grand Theft Auto happens to be in the majority of American family household and young kids are playing this game.

Yes, it would be nice if kids would play wholesome games rather than GTA. But is that realistic? And how would a Bible game teach "communications skills"?
