If X-COM is evil, I don't want to be good.

Umm... I think you have "Demon" mixed up with "Chryssalid."

Fine, I'll stop playing. But only because you asked me to. I'm going to 
go run a roleplaying game instead... Oops, those have been noted as the 
work of the devil, too.

I can only imagine Armageddon... Satan walking around with a clipboard...
"Murders? Check."
"Rapists? Check."
"People who played X-COM? Check."
"We can go now."

Why is it that the religious fundamentalists are always the ones who 
DON'T know the definition of words like "Blasphemy?" And those witch 
burnings in Salem sure solved that problem, didn't it?

> X-Com was programmed by SATAN in HELL'S KITCHEN!

This I can agree with. Once X-COM sold out to Hasborg, I never forgave 
the designers, and considered them on par with Satan. However, you ARE 
mistaken on one point... X-COM was programmed in England, wasn't it? Not 
a neighborhood in New York.

Besides, with Daredevil jumping around and causing such a ruckus, no one 
could have programmed such a fantastic game while living in that 
neighborhood.
