No, because Halo doesn't revolve around religion, it just took ideas from them, and made them tie into the game. That's all it did.

I don't think that it will. Just because there are recent theories and the loose ties to the Bible, doesn't mean that Halo 3 will be a religious game, lol. It's really just this forum at this given time.

Halo 3 hasn't even come out yet and its sparking religious controversy. Look through the forum for threads on religion.

I wish people would stop referring to Halo as something to do with religion. As the guy above said, it simply took some ideas from the bible. For example, the Ark (although this could be Bungie's idea of irony as the Ark in the bible safed life whereas the Ark in Halo destroys).

In this forum. It does not mean that the actual game will. The people causing the supposed, "controversy" just have nothing else to do until the game comes out.

To put it bluntly: Those people should shut up. So what? It has elements based on the Bible. They might as well come out and say it so there'll be no more debates on the matter. It's not like it tells you to brandish yourself with a shotgun and go massacre nonbelievers...

why would it its a completly diffrent religous stand point takeing ideas from various religions and combining them to make a great story. If some 1 was goign to get there pantys in a bundel it would be because they where picking and choissin what they wana hear plus it would be just plain stuped so unless they have jesus apper in the clouds with legions of angels ready to bear down on the flood and covey forces and save us from are sins i highly doubt there will be much bi$#$%ing

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

please don't be offended by this, but some of you guys need to chill out about the whole 'halo is based on the bible' thing. regardless of whether there are references or not it does not need to be blown out of proportion or constantly debated. it's a video game, a great one, but a video game none the less.

Each time someone stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. That hope is three little numbers: 1 - 1 - 7.

There is hope in us all. We gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face. We must do the thing which we think we cannot do; stand with the Master Chief and Finish this Fight!

Of course it will, okay listen up yall, Halo 3 no matter how it turns out will ring some sort of clash between group A the skeptics and Group B the might have.

Whilst A might love it because its new, B might hate it because it doesnt have the feelings of Halo 1 or Halo 2 and vise versa.

There will be some sort of contraversy in it no doubt. There always is in big games, about what it will be, could be, might be and what it might actually come out to be.
