“Yolanthe gave me a rosary.
That was blessed by some priest in Italy.
We pray every morning using the rosary.
Now, with me here, we do that via the phone.”

The article refers to Inter which probably means he plays for Inter Milan (Milan) which is one of the top teams in Italy and all of Europe. You do not play for Inter Milan unless you are one of the best in the world. The other biggies in Italy are Juventus and Roma.

Nice story.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Tell me when he starts playing baseball, then I’ll care.

One could only hope that Wesley’s religious instruction contains invocations against diving, because the Dutch squad is the biggest bunch of submarine commanders I’ve ever seen. The Italians will really need to step up their game after this tournament.

He may have scored the winning goal again today against Uruguay.

Dutch soccer player Wesley Sneijder, who scored the winning goal against Brazil in the World Cup quarter finals last week....to become a Catholoic convert

Here we go again...the Catholics, just like the Jewish Pharisees, whom they emulate in legalism, are off to convert another proselyte, and make him a Catholic saint...

Once again, only God Almighty - the Father - declares who is deemed a saint, and this declaration of "Saint" is not from within the Catholic religious system.

A saint is only a believer in Christ Jesus by faith alone, and not by works of the law. A true saint is not a Catholic; for the Catholics do not believe in Christ Alone and His Grace.

Catholics salvation is only by works of the law and submission to the Pope, not submission towards God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ alone is the head of the church - the body of Christ - not a building made with hands. (Read the scripture, it fully explains this).

The body of Christ is only made up of faith believers who are formed into a building NOT made with hands. (Read the scriptures - they fully explain this correct doctrine.)

If Catholics only read the scriptures carefully, they would realize these truths.

His religion has nothing to do with his playing ability.

Tiger Woods is a serial cheater and a self-proclaimed Buddist. What conclusion do you reach from that?
