There's an interesting site called The Goal where sports figures of the fundamentalist Christian variety offer testimonies on their personal relationships with Jesus.

I knew a lot of professional athletes were evangelical/fundamentalist Christians, but some on the list surprised me. Tim Salmon? Trot Nixon? Who knew?

1. Personally, I'll be glad when the very idea of religion...
...is as dead as the idea of "Phlogiston" or the idea of "Spontaneous Generation"

Not that I really expect to live long enough for that particular insanity to die off, of course.

3. I believe in God, but I cannot prove He (really It) exsists.
I can however prove that religion and God have been misused for centuries.

2. Many teams have Christian fellowship and bible study groups.

Joe Gibbs' teams have always been big on that. For some reason when Joe does it, it doesn't bother me nor seem insincere. Maybe it's because his enterprises are successful; I don't know.
