Well, I was looking at the name of the upcoming class, Evan, and it dawned on me that this is a common beginning for many things relating to Christianity, such as Evangelicalism (a Protestant Christian belief system), Evangelism (a Christian way of relaying religious beliefs), Evan Almighty (a movie relating to Christianity starring Steve Carrell and Morgan Freeman), Evan Davies (a Christian missionary), etc. Even the name Evan, which is a common Welsh name, means "God Is Gracious." So, do you think that Nexon America is purposely using the name Evan for their new class to promote Christianity or is this just coincidental?

I think you are thinking too hard. Purely coincidental.

Yes you are 100% right. Nexon is trying to force its religious beliefs on us. NX actually stands for "No Satan".

I think you should be quiet and stop snooping around before you find out something you don't want to. /MafiaThreat

Might as well cut out the move "Genesis" as well. o_o I think it's a little far fetched really.
