Chiefs Religion in Kc/football/sports/ - Page 4

The Sheffield injury was awful, but I thought it was very cool to see the players go out on the field in prayer. In our culture and media today we seldom see religious expression and I was rather proud to see my favorite team, in a sport I love so much, do this.

I couldn't help but wonder if an injury occured on a movie set whether the cast and crew would have done the same.

Very happy to see that he is alright.

Logically, it follows that people who do not receive what they pray for should all be killed by people who are successful prayers.

God commands it. Kill them. Kill the unbelievers now.

Not to mock prayer, but I believe the proper term is "amen".

Football is a violent sport filled with nasty individuals who sin frequently.

If the Christian god really exists, he hates football and does not answer the prayers of anyone associated with it.

I don't know if he hates football, but I'm pretty certain he hates the Chiefs.

He sez He's angry, vengeful & jealous.... and He commands you to kill unbelievers - you'd think He'd be a football fan fer sure!

It's interesting that this has popped up on a message board. I was thinking the same thing while watching the prayer huddle. I am a person of faith , although I may be a little "lost" or misguided. I was thinking this: isn't it pretty much a tradition to have a pre-game prayer? Did someone forget to pray for the safety and continued health of the other players? Was God preoccupied with something more important than a preseason football game and just didn't hear the prayer? OR, was that particular prayer actually answered since the player ended up being OK afterall?

I guess for me it was a nice gesture of respect for a fallen player at the moment but utterly useless in reality for the well being of the player. That's just me. Scripture says that "time and unforeseen occurrence befall us all"....good things happen to bad people and vice versa. It's possibly Gods way of saying "my bad...shit happens. Get over it."

He hates Kansas City most of all, because man took a city in the middle of the bible belt and turned it into a culture of barbecue and football, where Sundays are reserved primarily for the worship of sport.

Kansas City, KS and Kansas City, MO are a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. If Carl Peterson and Marty Schottenheimer had turned back and looked at Arrowhead after they left, they would have been turned to pillars of salt.

Oh, do you think it'll still go through? Will not ending the message correctly screw up the parser?

Think of amen as the submit button. If you don't say it, the message doesn't get posted.
