Christian Protests

i don't know how many followed the video game convention E3, but here's an interesting little story from it:
EA is releasing a game called 'Dante's Inferno' is a game about a guy who is trying to escape from Hell.
Some Christians protested, bringing signs like 'Our high score is in heaven, join us on our leaderboard' and 'turn your playstation in for a pray-station." Pretty lame, actually.
As it turns out, the protests were faked by EA as part of a viral marketing campaign.
Well... Some real Christians took offense to this and said to EA, that they're not 'priggish', 'thin-skinned fun-killers'.
That's right... there are Christians who are protesting being portrayed as protesters. Gotta love it.
