The Problem of Christian Video Games

|

It's pretty old, but I've just come across a fantastically well-written article on Christian Video games by Ryan Henson Creighton over at Untold Entertainment. Here's a choice quote:

There are many great philosophical questions that come part and parcel with Christianity, chief among them being the problem of pain (how can an infinitely good God allow needless suffering?), and the problem of video games (how can an infinitely good God allow crappy Christian video games, which cause needless suffering?)

Very much in sync with my own thinking on the subject, he goes on to outline some of the common approaches taken so far, and where they fail (in a highly entertaining manner, I might add!) The only downside of it being so old is I'm yet to find the follow-up article explaining his solution!
