"The priest made a kicker miss a goal by sprinkling holy water around the end zone. Another miracle from God!"
Quote:Is God an NFL fan?
Enter the Pittsburgh Steelers, who had a miraculous win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday Night Football this week, clinching the AFC North and a spot in the playoffs.
No one can say for sure, but there are some interesting circumstances at play before kickoff that left fans from both teams wondering if higher powers had a hand in the shocking Pittsburgh win. According to ESPN SportsCenter, the Steelers brought in a Catholic priest to sprinkle Holy Water around one of the end zones.
Go ahead and scoff at the idea, but the Ravens were certainly not laughing after their kicker Tyler Loop missed what would have been a game-winning field goal as time expired. The kick went wide right, sailing over the very same damp spot where the priest had spread the Holy Water earlier. If you look closely at the video, you can see a Pittsburgh fan holding "John 3:16" on yellow poster board.
It begs the question: if God is a Steelers fan, could He also be a Patriots fan?

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
