Hmmm someone said i should remove the cross
and rename the church to 'Meeting place' or so
because some religious people would not like
such a catholic church here. Should I do that
(i am not religious so I don't know where the
problem exactly is)

It might be better, some people are easily offended by those kind of things, plus it might give Graal a catholic look, which isn't particularly the case.

Eh? A catholic look? *looks at the church and does not think of Catholicism in any way* I simply see it as a church, or Christianity perhaps. But none of the demonations of Christianity. Just...Christianity in general. I think the church should stay, and not be changed. Because if you make the building not a church simply to appease the non-Christians, non-religious, or the people who don't like the church being there, then what about the people who want it there, or are Christian? Then they won't be happy, so its not fair to them. Leave the church I say, if you do not like it there, ignore it, don't play graal, or don't go into that area. Nothing forces you to go and see it.

I'm an athiest and I've had lots of heated arguments with theists on the matter, but I really can't see why the church is a bad thing.

Churches exist in the real world. Why not have them in Graal too? I haven't yet sued my town just because it has a church, and besides, churches have a unique feel to them that works well in Graal. People don't have to go/worship there.

graal should be devoid of religion, or should have Graal-Religions.

do you forget about other people's feelings? Like someone said earlier, if you dont like it, dont go there. No one said you had to like it, just accept it and be on your way

Does it specifically refer to any religion? A cross is pretty much a symbol of any faith these days.

people arent offended by not having their religion in a game, because its just a game.

but im am offended by people putting churches in games, especially when there are other places of worship, i feel like its pressed on me, and so do other...

there are now 2 churchs that both represent the cross..

oh well....i am a person too...i payed for this account...i am entitled to be treated like a consumer and a customer to this company.

So what if you are offeneded...just learn to accept. If I have to be tolerant of what you want, then show the same gratitude towards me.
