well.. you don't. You can just NOT buy the game.

Though it's an interesting enough idea, religion and video games don't match. A good example is Xenogears, alot of religious images are in the game crosses, that type of thing etc. big controversy about the game, and some games don't even make it over here because of the religion aspect in them. I think the two things should be kept different, The Sims is controversal enough we don't need things like religion adding fuel to the fire. And you don't have to buy the magic packs, they're not forcing it down your throat. Also witches do have a religion it's called Wiccan. Should they take the aspect of the paranormal out of the game too? Why not make a pack where the sim just stands there and stares at blank walls, take all the fun out of the game and that is what you have. As it was said above you don't HAVE to buy it, you don't like the content a certain pack has then don't buy it, it's simple.

Individuals who call themselves witches are part of the faith Wicca, and that is a religion. It might not be a "real" religion in some's eyes, but it IS a religion by definition.

The witches in the game are based on the stereotypical green-skinned witches that harken from fairy tales and fables, like Wizard of Oz.

Cri moar. If it's junk, why play it? And why can't you type like a normal human being? Everyone else is.


Not just Wicca/Wiccan, actually. Satanists (like myself) also take on the term of Witch or Warlock.


The only way they could get around it would be to begin sporeading the word of Spode.
