Jesus & Football

This is one of the better stories I've seen in awhile. I mean how awesome are these people? Jesus seemed to talk about loving people a lot; it's nice to see someone actually doing it. Most people would judge those kids, not cheer for them.

It's also nice that I came across this article on the front page of ESPN.com.

One small note...no disrespect to the author, but the last word of the story should be "Love", or better yet, "Jesus". That's exactly what those people gave them.

The Government Can Not Save Us

I realize the election is old news by now, but I've come across a couple of good links to articles that pretty much sum up exactly why I don't like politics for the most part.

In general, I've never understood how people get so worked up over politics.  Or in their words, why they are passionate about politics.  Call it what you want, but it's never made much sense to me.  I mean sure, I have my opinions, and I vote, but I think you all know what I'm talking about. The people you can't even mention a topic without it turing into a political debate. Just look at those talking heads you always see on the news channels.  Everything, to them, is done for a political reason.

It drives me crazy sometimes how people talk about one candidate or another.  Or about how this candidate will make the USA good again and save us all; or how that same candidate will be a disgrace to everyone.  As if the government or democrats or republicans can change us all for the better? That'll be the day.

As a Christian, I've always found it hard to "endorse" any candidate. For me I always seem to pick the lesser of two evils.  Until Jesus decides to run for president, I don't think I could ever truly endorse anyone.

Anyways...here are the articles. They're both pretty short.  You should read them.
