Welcome to the Church of Games™
"Praise to the Dice, the Deck, and the Holy D-pad"
We all play games. The Church of Games is one part history, one part philosophical "religion" (think jediism) , and all about the gaming community. The idea came about after looking at Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and Tim Buckley's Church of Gaming and thinking that maybe a a less politically born but re
al "religion" can come out of this. A "religion" that everyone can be a part of. At some point in our life we have played games. Playing games is something that bring people together and why not celebrate something like that.

Current mission:
Working on the Game Bible - An in-depth history book on games dating back to 5000BC. "Holy Days"- Coming up with key days to be seen as the Holy Days of Gaming. All religions need there special days and we need them too. Disclaimers v 1.0:
1. The Church of Games is not an attempt to start a cult or a real religious; There is a philosophy behind it and a hope to have a community but that is all. At most it would be on par with Jediism
3. The use of the terms disciples is purely being used to denote someone who has impacted the gaming community. These people have been seen as key player in the context of history. Ex: Thomas Paine a disciple of American.
3. Another title of for the Game Bible (when finished) could be: "The History and Philosophy of Games: A look at the importance of games in human culture." Recap: Not serious about the religion side but serious about the history of games, the importance of games (psychology and sociology stand point), and forming a community
