All the people in favor of "book burning" never killed anyone, or watched someone die.
How do you know this? Did you speak to all the people in favour of Book Burning and ask them if they have ever seen anyone die or if they have killed anyone?
Because it is.
I'm loving these replies. Ego plays a big part in them.
Ever watched someone die? That is without doubt one of the worst experiences you can ever have.
Depends on what you're seeing and how they die. If they die of old age peacfully in their sleep it's hardly going to be as horendous an experiance as watching some get their head cut off.
Video games are different in that they instead convey the idea that you're immortal (particularly if it's an easy game).
I agree, they do convey that. But is everyone going to feel the same and see it that way?
What if you get a guy who's smacked out on Crack or LSD who plays this game and see's himself as immortal when killing people and watching people die. Would you like to spend a day in this persons company?
