I find it incredibly arrogant and ignorant for sports stars and athletes to immediately thank God when things go their way. By openly thanking God they are telling everyone that God has chosen them to do well, to score the goal, to win the game.
Sport has winners and losers. If he is choosing one team to win God is also choosing one team to lose. If you give someone success in the field of sport somebody else is inevitably punished.
Am I alone is looking forward to the day a Christian sports star publicly blames God for their failings with the same exhibitionism that they display when they thank God for their success?
God loves Australia.
