I'm with Jason here. In fact, this is *less* change to the game than I was expecting in espousing a fundamentalist Christian worldview.

One of the fundamental rules of RPGs has always been "If there's something about the game that makes you uncomfortable, change it!" If this is helping someone have fun and maybe even grow in their faith, more power to them. I think my own faith is secure enough that I won't be led astray by an imaginary world, but if someone else needs more support, by all means. For that matter, I wouldn't ask such a person to play an unaltered game until they felt themselves spiritually ready, if they ever did.

Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause him to fall. 1 Cor 8:13
