Wow…the Catholics are pissed. There’s a big surprise! EA better take a slap on the wrist via Sister Mary Margaret’s ruler and accept the punishment of 100 Hail Marys and 250 Our Fathers! All kidding aside (I grew up Catholic, I can have my fun!), the Catholics are really pissed about EA and their little stunt at E3.

If you aren’t sure what stunt I’m referring to, one needs only to head over to Joystiq and click on the following link. For those who are too lazy to click a link, the point of the situation is that EA set up a protest outside E3, as a publicity stunt, to protest the game “Dante’s Inferno,” which has yet to be released though it was prominently featured during the E3 conference.

The protest, disguised as a religious protest was actually a stunt. I’ve been following this story online since E3. I did very much enjoy some of the “signs” the protesters held up, but my favorites were:

“Trade in your PlayStation for a PrayStation”
“Cheat Codes Won’t Save Your Soul”
and “Hell is not a game”

Of course, there is the cheesy, which includes “Just say infer-No!” and “EA = Electronic Anti-Christ!” But…that’s beside the point. The point is that this little staged protest is making the Catholics mad. It’s funny mad, too. I’ve always believed that when you are religious, it’s always best to try and make a low blow at any opponent. Turning the other cheek is too Jesus for the majority of society.
