Dan, I don't condemn him for spiritual authority. After all, if I'm making a game about (subject x), it would be preferable to have people on the team that understand (subject x) and not people that hate (subject x). I'm making a game about Science... thus I want people that share my scientific mindset... ie no creationists. He is rather the opposite.

But your point is taken Joozey; he could be abusing the beliefs of others to make his game. But ironically, those exact people won't see it as abuse as it's under the guise of "god". Insidious to us perhaps, but like Eurythmics said "some of them want to use you; some of them want to be used by you".
