No, I can't imagine it. I live in the buckle of the Bible Belt. On the subject of when, why and how I stopped believing in Santa Claus; I was 8 years old and I pretended to be asleep while waiting for him to arrive. At some point in the night my Aunt Agnes arrived at Grandma's house with a bag of wrapped gifts. I watched from hiding as they added the "Santa Gifts" to those under the tree from and to family. I went back to bed knowing that they had lied to me for years and were not to be trusted.
+Charles Christopher So the next morning you denounced them for their lies. And refused to accept (perhaps even open) any of those "Santa swag" presents.
Oh geez. Can you imagine the television show? XD
Jesus, the board game. Sounds like a real money maker...
+dogless10 Well Jesus, the Book did well. Jesus, the Movie always does great at the box office.
Would the board game still use money as the mechanism? Y'know, cuz Jesus wants you to be rich. Or prayer beads? Verse tokens?
Would it be a quest for heaven? If so, would it be cooperative or competitive? That YOU get into heaven before Steve and Jen do. And then the game ends, so they don't have a chance to make it themselves?
Or cooperative...I help you "win" (get to heaven). You help me. And hopefully YAY we all win. Or maybe a bunch of us won, but George is screwed, lost, goes to Hell...
I figured out Santa wasn't real when I came to realize that my father never got to meet Santa when Santa would show up on our block going house to house.My father had this fake belly and this very expensive Santa suit and every Christmas he would go around the block going to all the houses and one year I realized that dad and Santa never met I was 5 or 6 years old when I put it together..
I knew those Santas weren't the real Santa--somehow. Then one day when I was four, after seeing a number of them in front of stores, it hit me, they can't all be Santa...and in fact, none of them are Santa, is there even a "real" Santa? I told my mother I had figured out there was no Santa, and she said, "Don't tell your sister!" I didn't. A few years later when I told her I had figured out there was no god, she got super angry and threatened to slap me across the face. Somehow, stupidly, I thought she'd have the same reaction. What a dunce I was!
I'm so down for a Jesus board game. The winner gets forsaken by his father and crucified. Hooray!
I am General Zod. Your ruler. Yes, today begins a new order. Your lands, your possessions, your very lives, will gladly be given in tribute to me, General Zod! In return for your obedience you will enjoy my generous protection. In other words you will be allowed to live.
As for this "Superman".... Come to me, son of Yahweh, if you dare! I defy you! Come and kneel before Zod!
Already have a game about god; Black & White!
+Van Valkyrie Games with a religious (or Christian) connection.
(Feel free to add to the list)
Go Fish ... "I shall make thee fishers of men". "Seek and ye shall find."
Sorry ... Confession, contrition, guilt
Monopoly ... what most religions seem to want. (And many of those that didn't...are where now, exactly? So they extincted.)
Command & Conquer ... ditto
Lots ... old timey name for...dice? cards? And name of that Bible Hero.
Solitaire. ONE god. Who doesn't like it when you play -with yourself- alone
Jesus video game...Finally, the crucifixion done right!

Doubting the facts doesnt alter the facts Rom 3:4- though u lie to yourself and others do to u does'nt stop the one who gave your already seared conscience from punishing u later Ecc 8:11 so right now u feel it's safe to do wrong Heb 9:27!
Many do actually believe the bible but many evil others dont because of ignorance and attitude, wanting to stay ignorant,thats u an example,Im always right 1 Cor 2:15,but intelligent people cant help the biased depraved mind to see facts when pursued, thats why ur a sucker believing stupid others telling your ichy ears just what u want to hear 2 Tim 3:16,u fool yourself because there's no truth in you 1 John 1:8,fooled again by your deceived heart Jeremiah 17:9!
