Violence in video games

My 11 year old son just started "video game design school", but I was a little worried about violent content, so being a responsible parent, I talked to him about it:

me: Son, I don't want you to make a violent video game.
son: Don't worry Dad, my first game is just "pong". But in my version, the ball explodes when it contacts the paddle, and kills everyone, everytime!

me: Why don't you try to make something educational?
son: Ok, how about a game called "Kill the Video Game Design School Teacher"!

me: You aren't getting my point. How about a religious theme then?
son: You mean like "Hunt Down Jesus and the 12 Disciples"?

I give up.
