No then they have to turn to Baseball or BasketballGabrielman wrote:I often wonder if we love foot ball more than God. People paint themselves, get all excited, and even bow down to their teams coach. It was once said that foot ball in the largest secular religion on earth. People get pumped to see the games, and they spend oh so much on them, but for God, what will they do. They will fight over their teams, and even in some cases kill over them, but would they go so far for God? They seem to have more faith in foot ball than in God. Just my 2 cents though. Foot ball is seasonal, so they can't be that way year round..... can they?

As a former football idolater I have some very strong views regarding this subject.

I believe in aliens. We may have up to 20,000,000 or more of them wandering the country this very minute.

Maybe that is conviction.

Re: More people believe in aliens then God?
No doubt (conviction that I love football). I must confess (in more ways than one) sometimes I find myself wishing the priest would make his homily just a little shorter so I can make the Sunday pre-game show. But only if the topic is boringjlay wrote:Maybe that is conviction.

Then again, it's on Yahoo, so they probably researched it using a survey on Yahoo. Just look at Yahoo answers. Those places are crawling with atheists.
