I’ve never met a religious person respecting atheists, let alone one that investigates even their own religion. Usually the respectful ones aren’t also the religious ones.

The biggest cult in the Philippines, which dabbles in prosperity gospel and owns an entire arena here, believed it was some Filipino man. I don’t even remember if they view him as Jesus or some other incarnation. But where I live, they have the most followers. Oh and sometimes, they get people killed, like what happened to my uncle years ago.

MS bought ABK for its ability to make profits. ABK can’t do that if MS “cleans house”. It was very effective marketing that made people think MS would shape things up once they get their hands on shitty companies (while also effectively marketing “they would let devs be”). ABK may end up having more influence on Xbox than the other way around.
