Join us as we discuss the smash hit computer game Fortnite - Battle Royale. This is a free game that allows up to 100 people to play a life or death game of battle where the player is dropped into a massive landscape in a “last man standing” fight to the death. Players are equipped with weapons in order to kill their opponents while gaining more firearms and ammunition for their journey. What the player does not understand is that they are being trained to kill without having to experience the aftermath of killing another human being. We will contrast this reality with Lt. Col. David Grossman's book titled "On Killing" and the actual affects killing another human being has on the pyche. Parents need to understand that games like Fortnite are conditioning their kids to kill with impunity. We will discuss the affects this type of violence has in deadening the God given reality of the sanctity of life.
