Dear Friends. The advantages have accumulated, which means we are waiting for restyling, updating and addition to my post. Yesterday I still had the opportunity to think about it in more detail.

Let’s start with a small comic. There is a theory that thoughts and ideas come simultaneously or over time to different people who have never seen or known each other. So when the respected ErrorSe7en posted a wonderful comic, I wasn’t even surprised.

Now let me warn you! All intersections with real religions are used as an example and are not an attempt to offend anyone. Let’s be tolerant of each other.

Can “Gaming” be classified as a religion?? Every person believes what he wants to believe. Some people believe in God, Buddha, Allah, while others believe in the pasta monster and wear a colander on their head. But if you look, the average gamer is a fanatic of his religion. Here we need to make a small digression. Religions are a special form of awareness of the world, conditioned by belief in something, which includes a set of moral norms and types of behavior, rituals, religious activities and the union of people in organizations (church, religious community). Therefore, we can say that StopGame is a community and we are all parishioners of the cult of Gaming. But like any religion, it is fragmented.

Let’s look at and share the religion of "Gaming". Console players are Catholics, PC nerds are Protestants, Orthodox Christians are ordinary gamers. Atheists are people who don’t play games at all. For example, there are large branches. Let pony lovers be Buddhists. And so on. Why so? Well, judge. Console gamers and PC nerds don’t like each other. Holivars begin and battles are organized. Pony lovers give minuses if they are offended or, on the contrary, throw pluses. But they all coexist together and don’t seem to do anything to each other. And ordinary Gamers – ordinary people, seem to believe, but seem to not. We didn’t go on crusades against other faiths, we don’t burn sorcerers and witches with fire, we don’t write in the comments: “I’m your mother in boxing.”. Suck your joystick lalka". Everyone interprets their faith differently. But still, we are all parishioners of StopGame and coexist with each other, not without problems, but in a compliant world. Kulakov – Pope, Trostenyuk – Dalai Lama, and so on. They keep the peace in the parish of StopGame.

Well, like any religion, it needs idols, deities, gods, religious things… It turns out there is a designation for this. Egregor. This is the animation of a thing. Deification of him. For most gamers, this ear of religion is Half-Life 3. Until recently, Duke Nukem Forever was a similar e-gregor. But when the owner of the steel eggs appeared to the people, many lost faith. But with Half-Life 3 things are more religious. we don’t know if it exists, but many believe in it. If Gabe Newell releases the Valve Covenant, it could become a real religion. after all, people believe stranger things..

As a result, we get that a gamer is a religious fanatic. So my dear brothers and sisters: “May the spirit of games be with you and StopGame bless you”
