But there's so many things that Destiny has in common with Christianity! A dead and largely absent god we still fervently worship. Sanctioned genocide against the other races. A faceless, incorporeal enemy of vague intention, who we fight based on worship of aforementioned dead god. A faceless religious leader in white robes who deftly dodges giving any information to the audience and character. Literally every playable Guardian is a Jesus figure. We were dead, and we rose again to defeat the darkness. Regardless of our actions, we don't seem to actually be getting anywhere. You'd think we'd take back the Steppes by now, at least...

This is a normal thing for Christian, Catholic, blah blah blah, people. Anything that doesn't come from the Bible instantly means Devil worship bullcrap. My step mother wouldn't let me watch [b][i]Harry Potter[/i][/b] because of this.

As a Christian father here's my serious response to your question. If my son does his chores, his homework and has a good disposition then I have no problem with him playing after dinner for a couple of hours before he goes to bed. He gets even more time on the weekend. The game is not satanic. It has some darkness to it based on the enemies you fight but that's true in many video games. There is no swearing, minimal blood and no suggestive scenes. If he bans this game you'll most likely find another. Does he object to the game or the time spent on the game? Maybe what you need to do is create a schedule you both can agree on and stick to it. Your dad has to recognize that this is something important to you that he can use to get what he wants (chores, homework, attitude, etc.). If he bans it he's foolishly eliminating a powerful incentive he can use to channel behavior while at the same time potentially creating in you the very things he doesn't want like poor attitude.

Tell your dad God isn't real and the sooner people who believe in religion die off the sooner we can move forward as a species

I mean, oryx kind of resembles satan.

Organise a little... Wetwork...

Nercobump...uh for no apparent reason

Tongue punch his fartbox

Tell him religion is an out dated joke that was invented to steal the minds of the common people and control them.

Why are people keeping this thread alive? [spoiler]im aware that as i type this im also contributing[/spoiler]

Infuse him with someone that has less impact and more stability.

He is using that as an excuse because you play it to much. Or he is a conservative old person that likes religion and needs to have a purpose and something to believe in as he cannot comprehend we have no purpose but to just be alive, eat and reproduce.

You're held under the rule of religious fanaticism until you're 18, sorry bud.
