Your thoughts on Athletes openess on Religion

[YaBoy]

I hate when they say "it was god's will that we won, he wanted us to win." I'm like damn how come god didn't want the other team to win. He didn't like their jerseys or something?

Case-by-case basis.

dont like it, at all

but i still support them -hopefully 1 day they'll see da light

Don't care, i'm tired of people trying to dictate what others should believe in or feel. Let them speak how they feel to speak.

This. Also get sick and tired of folk saying 'oh hes a fraud', 'he's just acting for the camera', 'he's a hypocrite' etc etc.

I dont think divine intervention should be pointed too as a reason why Team A beat Team B. Its safe to say all sport teams probably have at least a few Christians on them.

Other then that it takes a bitter, angry, confused, self hating individual to catch feelings and be offended by athletes who speak highly of their religion, whether it be Christian, Muslim, Jewish, etc.

Im sayin if your content, secure, and confident in your own beliefs then its probably not a big deal when athletes open up on their religion.

1, not every player, with a religion, is Ray Lewis.

I think Tebow gets a bad rap, when, his only problem was lettin' the media blow him up.

I saw nothing wrong with him praying after TDs, but, I'm not exactly sure he didn't have a thing to do with himself becoming a spectacle.

I hope one of the coli brehs school me on that (Tebow and his involvement in his media stature). I've heard little things, here and there, but, Tebow seems cool with cashing out, on it.

Back on topic; I don't see why not. But, when you start declaring a higher power wants you to win, you start losin' me and I could understand ppl becomin' upset.

But, again, there aren't too many Ray Lewis' out there. So ppl should chill out and not make that a issue about all athletes. I don't even know how Lin's religion even comes into the question.

its ok long as there Christan but Jews and Muslims and anything else gotta keep quiet that's not allowed in America

No, disrespecting America is frowned upon in America

 

[PortCityProphet]

No, disrespecting America is frowned upon in America

What disrespect? He exercised his 1st amendment right.

 

[intilectual recipricol]

I think its corny, but whatever... if cats wanna downplay their own hardwork and preparation instead givin the credit to an invisible magical guy in the sky then be my guest...

As for me and my house we will take the credit and blame as we deserve it

 

[Willy Waffle]

honestly, it doesn't bother me. but shyt like this is over doing it.

This was probably made during in the

With Tebow last year and than Lin and now with Ray Lewis.

Does it make you more religious or you just want them to shut up.

Is this something your supposed to keep a secret

The bible preaches at the end of times, Parents will kill there children, Gays will run rampart, the devil will be chillin before it all comes to an end.
Thats what is going on right now. Tebow doesn't do anything, the media likes to ask him things about it, he answers. The devil gets mad, and now its a problem.
Ray Lewis, I never seen him just be like "I don't want to talk about the game, I just wanna grill you about where YOU STAND with GOD"
He doesn't do that, but you and others are implying that much

You see bruh, when have Athletes not mentioned GOD when they accomplish things? This isn't something new, its been going on since Roman's in Chariots would fight Lions in a Coliseum
Whats going on secretly is a war on Religion, on GOD. Thats why Chick fil A founders got heat for saying a marriage is between a man and a woman

NBA2k13 bleeps out the word "GOD" whenever someone says it on the songs
GOD has been removed from schools, and they not even allowed to say Merry Christmas.
We can observe and respect other faiths/gays/etc, but Christmas/God seem to not have the same freedom. You know why?

Because its so demonic friend

I LOVE SEEING THE OPENLY GAY MUSLIM ATHLETES.

The Worst Interview Ever - YouTube

Worst interview ever its labeled

And why? Because he gave all the credit to GOD.
Now the interviewer guy mentioned that hopefully GOD is here for all of us
Thats true. But not all of us do right by GOD for him to shine his glory upon thee

If you fakin your support, you get cut short. That simple

If the Gloooooove don't fit You don't get

I can speak from experience. I once had GOD touch me, and for a very long period of time I had infinite energy. I wasn't in a race/fight/anything. I felt inspired, told my shorty I was gonna go out for a JOG with the dog. Told myself right before I left that the JOG would be for GOD. Just a simple gesture. I ended up running fullspeed for about 30mins, only slowing down a few times because the pitbull couldn't keep up.

I'm not and wasn't ever a jogger. This story doesn't prove anything to anyone who is a non believer. I'm just trying to explain to everyone how GOD can affect a person directly. Thats why they say "he works in mysterious ways" but the reality is we as people are dumb and think we know everything even when we know we don't

Hollaback!!!
