My Card, Sir

Kent, England, Sunday school teacher David Tate, 29, was having a hard time keeping the attention of his pupils. “All the students were doing was talking about Pokemon when they came into the classes,” he said, so he came up with some competition: Power Cards. His new card set features 120 Bible characters which players can put up against each other based on the character's faith, strength, flaws and the number of times they are mentioned in the Bible, in a game based on trumps. One character is missing, however: Jesus. “Christians can get funny sometimes so I didn't want to offend anyone,” Tate said. Besides, “it would defeat the purpose if Jesus was beaten by one of the bad characters.” (PA) ...Of course, “smite” trumps trumps.
