Thats just plain stupid... If a nation bans gambling... Mmmm... I could understand that (with great pain). But banning games? Come on! They can just as well declare Martial Law... :nervous:

nah, they're on their way to a spartan way of life.
Once that's attained they'll all run around naked with hoplons, armour and corinthian helmets, wielding new guns and then go to conquer the world....

well, in everquest maybe

oh wait, they're forbidden to play that now :p

lol banning gaming, at first i thought they meant like indian gaming ( a la casinos ) but then i realized Greece has no idians and i should really stop jumping to conclusions before i read these articles.

It's like all the p2p's out there today illegally sharing music, you can't really enforce all these retarded laws.

CP, do you always have to tell that... I'm getting tired of hearing that over and over. :sigh:
 
Though I halfly agree with you, except the last opinion shouldn't be banned.
 
And alcohol is also good if you don't take it much. Smoking, though, is never good. Or drugs.

Of course, an absolute ban of all alchohol, although it would make both Muslims and ZN happy, would cause all the Christian religions of the world to start massive protests. Including the extremists.
