Being away from the blogging game has given me time to
reflect about my niche in the Catholic
blogosphere. I know for sure I'm the only Catholic blog with an image of
Rainbow Dash with a halo next to St.Thomas Aquinas. Now that I'm thinking of reviving my blog, I'll probably
update the banner with my improved photo editing skills .I might even keep the pony
just for the uniqueness.
There are a few good Catholic sci-fi blogs (The B-MovieCatechism, God and the Machine, Otaku Catholic, and John C. Wright).
My friend DGD also has "Sci-Fi Catholic." I guess I can squeeze in
somewhere.
If you're curious, the "RPG" in my name stands for
"Role-Playing Game." Depending on when you were born, you might
immediately think either Dungeons & Dragons or The Elder
Scrolls. Since I'm in my early 20s, I'm far more familiar with the recent
computer RPGs.
I'm not quite sure how I can relate video games with
Catholicism, but if my friends Brandon Watson and Dave Ives can extract
philosophical and theological insights from the Care Bears and the Star Wars
Holiday Special, I can probably do some of the same with Mass Effect or
Bioshock.
