Soldiers of Christ Commence Crusade Into Second Life

The Jesuits, an order of Catholic priests founded in the 1500s, have decided to make Second Life their latest site of evangelical expansion.

“Second Life is not simply a ‘closed’ phenomenon,” writes Father Spadaro of the Jesuits, who outlined a detailed plan on the benefits and hazards of the virtual world, as well as instructions on becoming a resident. “It is a real living environment that every day extends its frontiers and increases the number of residents. We cannot close our eyes to it.”

After smut trades and regulation came barging through the doors, it was only a matter of time before religion came a-knocking gently.

Or not.
