Excellent post, Farrago. Truly, a person who treats others as you would wish to be treated. I agree...some posts do go over the edge and are inappropriate in any environment. I try to watch out for them. Without chastising, even those types of posts, whether here or anywhere else in the world, offends my better senses and intellect, and are most unbecoming.

We all come in many varying stages of growth. Some more defensive than others. True peace is known only when defense is not necessary.

IHub does have an all-encompassing set of realistic guidelines. Attack the post, not the postor.

Aside from that, it's not hard to understand the 'excitement' here. Seldom do Christians find an opportunity to financially invest in Christian products. It's very difficult to delete posts when such postors believe LFBG's success is directly related to Him. Afterall, He inspired Troy to develop these games. He inspires people to buy these games. And He inspires people to invest here. It's a tad bit hard to deny He's not involved here, even as we speak.

All your points are noted and respected though.

GBY and Go LFBG!

Good post Farrago, well though out and stated, not to mention a completely valid point.

I must've missed the post where the flaming was going on, but sorry that it occurred. Although this is a company with a "Christian" product, it doesn't mean that everyone who invests in it has to have the belief and it's unfair to expect as much. It's even worse to try to convert and or talk down to those who don't share the same beliefs..

Regarding the company, they're in the business to make money by selling games to a very niche market. This niche market is Christian. I don't know how many of you have played or even taken a look at the games, but Left Behind 3 is a real time strategy game where you take a Christian army and you kill demons. It's rated "T" for teen because of violence. It doesn't have blood and gore, but you're still killing things and I believe you can play on the "bad" team.

It also has online multiplayer, which typically pits players against other players and if both players pick the human teams, than they're both going to be killing humans..

Personally I'm a Christian and I can honestly say that this stock caught my attention primarily because of the Walmart deal, the christian aspect is a boon, but it wasn't the main draw.

Would you invest your money into this company simply because it's a Christian company if there was nothing promising on the horizon?
