God damn that's a great game. At the same time, I think they did this knowing that folks would die all the time, so they didn't want each death to be super punishing.

I came in here to say just this. I'm a Jewish clergyman, so I deal with this kind of shit a lot. The term isn't just brainwashing; it's actively seeking to erase Judaism as part of Christianity.
