Apparently Doom 3 is finally coming out. Some guys on Slashdot claimed that it heralded the end of the world. Here was one response:

1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a boxed edition of Doom III, sealed with seven seals.
2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the box, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, ID of Activision, hath prevailed to open the box, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the Redmond beast, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Linux client, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the even Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7 And he came and took the box out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8 And when he had taken the box, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Linux client, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the box, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Linux client that was respawned to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Linux client for ever and ever.
14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
