EarthBound Retreat
Well, as you guys read this article, I am actually at Falls Creek on a youth group retreat for my church. I'll be swimming in a great swimming hole, splashing around and nearly drowning, playing my harmonica to various worship songs, hiking around, and so on. How fun. How exciting! How... EarthBound-ish?
Think about it. A lot of what I just wrote sounds like a bit of an adventure. And, of course, I'll have friends who have a strange power (I'd say what it is, but people would get offended) with me along for the ride. And most of my friends fit right into the stereotypes presented for Ness, Paula, Jeff, and Poo of EarthBound. I'm sure that on more than one occasion, too, they all decided to take a little break and sing or hike or camp out for the night.
Life in general, too, is more like EarthBound than you'd think, but not on such a grand scale. As a Christian myself, I believe it is part of my duty to join forces with other Christians and defeat the spirit of evil. Many other religions have beliefs along the same lines, and even quite a few atheists or agnostics believe that they can help save the world, and work their best to do so. Sure, we don't fight taxis gone mad, or fight with hippies, but we do work in a small way to make the world a better place. Think about it. Have you made the world better today?
