"When did it become okay to bash Christianity?"
You're joking right? This is the norm.
Knock yourself out.
There are plenty of religions past and present where the number 3 holds significance. Ever heard of Norse mythology and the Norns?
The 3 goddesses of past, present and future?
Plenty of religions have messiahs. If you are an Arrakis Fremen your messiah is Muad Dib.
Take a chill pill and just play the game.
The muslims also use the word "messiah."
The president of Iran apparently believes himself to be the muslim messiah, in fact.
(Not that this is NOT anti-Christian, if you can follow the triple negative there.)
Nice imitation of Rip Van Winkle ... when did you come out of your coma?
I'm sorry. I don't understand what is Anti-Christian about this. Sure the names reflect common Christian terms, but I don't see the connection about this "Bashing Christianity."
You should ensure that the items are correctly in the game. I haven't played WoW in months, but I remember Thottbot had quite a few fake user-entered items in their database. The stats don't look all that great, either.
In defense of WoW, however, I don't remember there being a deity you have to choose or a god that is worshipped in the game. They have a priest and a paladin class, but no mention of who they follow.
For the Horde!
The objection to this name sounds like those hypersensitive PC do-gooders insisting on eliminating all Native indian team sports logos, names and references. Next the do-gooders will insist on changing the names of the rivers, states and land mass formations just to assuage their white souless guilt.
Someone needs to get a life.
Well, one day there was this serpent that entered the Garden....
Romans 14:23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
I play this game myself, and anyone who can find an anti Christian message in WoW has been eating paint chips. I can't be more clear about it than that.
There are plenty of places where Christianity is under attack. Creating that type situation out of thin air where there really is none gives ammo to the other side.
I'm Christian and I play WoW. Sorry but if you're making a stink about this, you're obviously looking to be offended.
Now if they made an item called "The sandals of Christ" or "Leggings of St. Peter", I could see your point.
How is it that naming things with titles that have Christian etymologies is bashing Christianity?
How is referencing God being Anti-Christian? They are healing gear that reference the greatest healer this world has ever known....
You think this is some new thing? My advice to you: Get over it.
