why are moms so afraid of Doom turning their kids into devil-worshippers. like, Doom has a pretty strong anti-demon message to it

One of the devs of the original 1993 game is a mormon with that exact position.

That would be Sandy Petersen.

Nice

“You kill demons to save the World.”

“That’s devil worship.”

“Lady….you cut in half demons with a chainsaw. It’s not worshipping anything but the chainsaws frankly.”

Terry Pratchett’s view on Doom:

“Over the centuries, mankind has tried many ways of combating the forces of evil… prayer, fasting, good works and so on. Up until Doom, no one seemed to have thought about the double-barrel shotgun. Eat leaden death, demon…”

Reasons why my professor is actually the best

a-series-of-endless-fails:

1. After two people dropped out of the class (bringing the total enrolled to 9) He said “looks like now we have the right number for a journey across Middle Earth to destroy the One Ring”

2. He referred to the end of Iliad Book I’s feast with the gods as “the real gods of mount olympus”

3. Referred to the greek gods as being like the subspecies of humans known as “entitled teenagers”

4. Always seems to bring in cookies on the day when you absolutely need a cookie

5. Once I started crying in his office and he started crying too because he doesn’t like when other people are sad

6. Referred to Alexander the Great as the “sexiest conqueror the world had ever seen”

7. Outright said what everyone was thinking after reading the epic of gilgamesh “yeah so Gilgamesh and Enkidu were so fucking gay”

THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD ALL TAKE CLASSICS/ HISTORY CLASSES
