Sky-pointing sports people
#13
RE: Sky-pointing sports people
I agree with some of the things being said here. I don't think God "helps" people win a silly sports game. I don't think God cares at all about sports, actually.

But it doesn't offend me or upset me either, when people do that. I don't think it's a purposeful gloat or a deliberate pride thing on their part. It's just that to them, the game is extremely important, so they forget to put things into perspective as far as the grand scheme of things go. But we all do that.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
