Interesting, isn't it? We laugh when we hear that sports events in the 2/3 world are sometimes canceled because of people attempting magical spells over the results, and yet 20-25% of the U.S. population is doing essentially the same thing!
How many times do we have to see stuff like this before we realize that unregenerate humanity is totally depraved; it is only by the freely available grace of God that anyone can be redeemed from their deadly curvatus in se (curved in on oneself).
We could focus on humanity being unregenerate, but I would recommend instead we just go ahead and make sports officially recognized as religions.
ReplyDeleteBaseball, of course, is the one, true mother sport. All other sports are apostate.
