Your Best Life Now game?

Ok, So Tracy and I made a trip to Tucson last Thursday to get Karis' pictures taken. They are absolutely adorable, but that is not the point of this post. After her pictures we walked the mall for a while. We came across this store that sells all kinds of games - board games, card games, chess etc... As we walked through this store we came across this:

Your Best Life Now game

Ok, So, I don't think it is news to anyone that I am not a huge fan of Joel Osteen. I won't go into detail about it - I will just say that I think he is a good motivational speaker, but that is about it. Anyway, my initial reaction to this game was, "YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME". I personally think if you write a book that is about having a better life, and that book can be made into a board game - it sure seems like I wouldn't really put much faith in that book. Can you imagine taking your 'life cues' from a board game? Just think of what your life would be like if you played the game of 'LIFE' and then decided, "YEP, now I know what to do with my life". Or what about Monopoly, can you imagine what your investments would be like if you made them according to how you played Monopoly. It is absolutely crazy, and just further diminishes the credibility of Mr. Joel Osteen.

What are your thoughts?
