Resurrexi Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 (edited) So there was a basketball game a couple years ago between my highschool (as of next Thrusday!) and a private school in the area. During the game the people from the private school kept shouting "God is watching! God is watching!" at the Catholic highschool because one parent from the not Catholic school would always shout that during games (don't ask me why lol). So then the players from the Catholic school's team shouted "God's on our side! God's on our side" back at them. I'm trying to decide whether this was irreverent at all... what do you think?

Madame Vengier Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Not irreverant, just stupid and really lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeschoolmom Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Yeah, not sure God has a side in basketball... baseball, yes. Basketball, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin86 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Saying God cares who wins a sport game is completely lame. When I first saw this, I thought it was going to be about politicians during war time. Sports? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I'd think he was too busy with other things to interfere in sporting events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin86 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 God apparently doesn't either. I mean, He really didn't make fire and ice compatible now did He? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmotherofpirl Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 It is self-centered to think God is totally interested in who wins a sporting event, even if in Pittsburgh we assume He roots for the Steelers and Penguins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come oooooooonnnnnnnnnnn! I'm sure God loves sports too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
