    Are this many people really that stupid? 43% of people polled believe that divine intervention played a part in Tebow's unlikely success in leading the Broncos to the playoffs. Really? Jesus/God really gives a shit who wins an NFL playoff game?

    If that's the case, he must really hate the Steelers, even though Big Ben and Polamalu pray... and to tease them this past Sunday is just cruel.

    "Hey, Son....let's let the Steelers tie this up and go into overtime".

    "That's great, Dad. And let's make the Steeler's safeties move up in run coverage and have Timmy throw an 80 yard TD pass on the first play in OT. That should convince people that we're backing this up."

    Which makes me wonder...where was Jesus/God when the Steelers were winning all those Super Bowls?

    Now, before people acuse me of Tebow bashing.... it's let get it straight: I'm not against Tebow so much as I am against Jesus.

    First of all, only 11 men are allowed in each huddle. Jesus as the 12th man in the huddle is not allowed under NFL rules. It's a 5 yard penalty each time it happens.

    And a nonviolent revolutionary Hebrew hippie has no business influencing the outcome of a brutal, violent sporting contest such as an NFL football game.

    If Jesus is so interested in arena sports, why didn't he influence the outcome of the brutal sport of feeding Christians to the lions (not the Detroit ones)? I'm sure those Christians were Tebowing all over the place as the lions were released. How about a little divine intervention there, our Lord and Savior?

    But, OTOH, for you true blue believers (not Cowboys fans) - maybe there is something to Bible Prophecy after all. Tebow is quarterback - the offensive leader - for the Broncos...the team with the white horse on their helmet.

    Revelation 6:2

    I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.

    Jesus wouldn't qualify as a servant in my old congregation,since he apparently watches football. Let alone takes part in the game.

    The scary part is, these people will vote to elect a guy who has control of a nuclear arsenal.

    Maybe Jesus just hates Ben Roethlisberger.

    Yes. Polls show that more Americans believe in flying saucers than believe they will ever collect social security benefits.

    Actually, that is true. Jesus kicked the front tire on his motorcycle a few years back.

    Okay, now after reading you guys in your political threads... this just might be playing the odds ;)

    Peace,

    What I meant as the astonishing thing was wide belief in the saucers, not wide disbelief in Social Security.

    And Jerry Jones pissed God off when he put a retractable roof on the new Cowboy's stadium thus not allowing God to watch the 'boys play in bad weather. Evidence? The Cowboys can't make the playoffs anymore... If Jesus is helping Tebow, God is obviously punishing Jones.

    (reference to old joke as to why there was a hole in the Texas Stadium roof - so God could watch his favorite team play)
