Ron Luce will feed off negative press and call it "persecution."
But he is a Cult Leader, and his sheep flock to him from all over the world to get some "greater" message from a guy who dresses like he is twenty and trying too hard to keep up with the times. Look at him, he accuses entertainment and technology of being devils, but everything this man hates he uses on a regular basis to promote videos, conferences via forums and chats, and other mediums. He is a hypocrite, because it only goes to prove that its not the mediums that are evil, but the people. But no matter who made 2 Girls 1 Cup, or the worst things you can think of in entertainment, Ron Luce will always be the worst devil in sheep's clothing. My heart goes out to all the brainwashed teenagers that come out of Teen Mania with no idea of what they believe, or an affirmation of said belief. Sadly enough, graduates from the program have one fetish: Ron Luce. They worship the bastard.Posted at 12:40AM on Aug 7th 2008 by DM

I appreciate Ron's zealous nature. I do think he is trying to do what he deems as "right". However, he has misguided himself in two ways:
He has declared war against culture. This is not what the Holy Scriptures teach. He should know that Christians are not at war with people, things, ideas, or material possessions. They are at war with powers that are unseen. Ron Luce absolutely has blown this one, and has fashioned a culture war to give steam to his chugging conference coffer.

He has also replaced the measure of one's heart as being based in what one does instead of what one is. G-d looks at the heart of a man, Ron Luce s so focused on the outside that his entire ministry oozes a modern form of legalism.

What's sad is that this is all done in the context of his leadership of teens and young adults. He has offered much good in the way of ministry, but these things are his fatal flaws. Posted at 3:04AM on Aug 7th 2008 by cb

I'd like to thank the writer for going beyond the typical gamer's attack on people who say anything negative about games, with the further explanation of what Luce was actually saying.

It may be true that there isn't supposed to be a culture war, but culture definitely influences people for better or worse, so one should be wary of what influences you are letting in. God does look at the heart, but what you do regularly influences your heart. I think that what Luce is saying about preventing children/teens from experiencing ideas that their parents wouldn't want them to experience, can be agreed on by most if not all of us. An example outside of the "Christian mindset" would be that if the first poster had kids it sounds like they wouldn't want them to be influenced by one of Ron Luce's books or other things, so it wouldn't be questioned not letting them read any of his books. So, if a parent doesn't want their child to be exposed to the idea of murder from the GTA perspective, then GTA could be considered a "terrorist" to those ideas of raising that child.Posted at 10:26PM on Aug 7th 2008 by TO

You can get paid to play games and tell the developers what they think of the video games. The great thing is that you get to keep the video games you test. So, why would developers pay video gamers to test video games. Video game developers sink millions of dollars into their video games and releasing a video game with bugs or a game that no one will play or return could cost them a lot of money.Posted at 8:06AM on Aug 11th 2008 by Mike
