blah, blah, blah, same false stuff.

7 years old, too.

It's a lot of jumping to false conclusions.

Kind of like how half of all evangelical priests are addicted to porn.

or how the catholic church's men of the cloth touch little boys in naughty places, even that didn't get as much hype as certain video games recently.

Damn, that article is old.
How about that more recent story of the Church sueing Sony for the Manchester Cathedral level in Resistance: Fall of Man.

I injured my fingers by repeatedly alternating between hitting "Z" and "X" in the 100m sprint on Brian Jacks' Superstar Challenge (Acorn Electron version.)

This is what I hate. A few fucking perverted pedophiles get to be priests, so now everyone thinks that Catholicism sanctions the act of taking advantage of a child. It makes me sick to think that my religion is being portrayed as a society of old men who get their kicks from groping little kids.

Do I

* play almost every day?
* often play for long periods (over 3-4 hours a time)?
* play for excitement?
* get restless and irritable if they can't play?
* sacrifice social and sporting activities?
* play instead of doing their homework?
* try to cut down their playing but can't?

Yes.

LOLOLOLOLOL

good one

I have an addiction to sex.... Not video games.

Does your child:

* play almost every day? No
* often play for long periods (over 3-4 hours a time)? Occasionally
* play for excitement? Yes, what else would I play for..
* get restless and irritable if they can't play? Not really...
* sacrifice social and sporting activities? Nope
* play instead of doing their homework? What homework?
* try to cut down their playing but can't? No...

If the answer is "yes" to more than four of these questions, then your child may be playing too much. I'm not a child

I'm a little disturbed at what all those video games may be doing to your concentration and reading comprehension, young man. There were 7 questions. You appear to have answered 5, and it isn't at all clear which questions each of these answers relate to.
