I have this link in my signature line, but thought I'd commend it to your attention more boldly.

1. For those of us who have no idea what you're talking about,

would you explain them? Is this a game? Are there directions with it? Is this the war on terror we all know and don't love?

5. well

It's a "collectible trading card game" that's been around for over 10 years now, popular mostly with teenagers. There are several thousand different cards, and this guy picked out some of them and arranged them to tell the story of the War on Terror.

9. Do you know how Slide worked?

I posted it on my blog about a year ago.

For people who don't know:

With a certain card in play (Astral Slide) players could take a creature out of the game temporarily (thus removing them from any rules or effects). They would slide a creature out, and then cast a spell that would cause all creatures to die. After the spell resolved, the creature who was removed from the game could come back, completely unharmed.



I went into full detail, using an example game between Jesus and Satan, and using a R/W Slide/Rift build.

The idea just dawned on me one day. I was thinking about Slide decks, and realized that its how fundies view the rapture.
