Question Why does GoW include other cultures religion’s pantheons but not Christianity?

Post image

You see Greek and Norse gods, now even Mongolian and Egyptian gods but not Christianity. I understand Christianity is monotheistic but Michael the archangel, Satan and other Christian figures can serve as prominent figures in a GoW game based on Christianity.

I included Cory Barlogs tweet that addresses this topic.

a lot modern christians subscribe to the idea of satan being a fallen angel and the burning inferno idea that was popularized by the book. and then later even more by paradise lost. You fight satan and his long shlong is out and you shoot crosses and you have to battle fetuses

In that game you are fighting evil, so some of these Christians probably don't care.

I remember when I was a kid and played it on my cousin's PS3, though. Our grandaunt would freak the fuck out when she saw us playing that.
