“Theology is easy, tunnel building is dangerous”.
Don’t have, nor watch TV. Played football myself though, wide receiver and punt returner. I know he married some super model, but I have not heard of any children. Marriage without lots of children was always considered a curse. Maybe that’s his problem.
IIRC, he dated celebrity actress Bridget Moynahan, had a baby with her, and then left her for celebrity model Gisele Bundchen, who he is currently married to. From what I see of him, he is a major a-hole and one of my least favorite players in the NFL, although he is sometimes considered to be a “classy” and “respectable” NFL star.
**”There Has To BE More Than This”**
I said the same thing, from time to time, while a proud, studious member of a rural, very conservative, Presbyterian church. At the age of 25, I met some oneness Pentecostals, and over a three year span went out persecuting them verbally, condemning them whether they were present or not. Then God knocked me to my knees financially. I obeyed Acts 2:38, being born again of the water and the Spirit (God gives the Holy Ghost to them that obey him. Acts 5:32).
Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
That’s really sad ... and makes me appreciate the gift of faith!
I grew up Roman Catholic, went to Catholic elementary school, was an altar boy, the whole nine yards. Roman Catholicism never taught me about Jesus Christ. I grew up, joined the Marines, was a rebel in my 20’s living the fast life, chasing women, and thought life was just about women and partying.
I was pissed off at the Roman Catholic church, and the years right after I left active duty were spent searching. I dabbled in the New Age and Buddhism, and at the same time was reseacrhing all I could about this God Man Jesus Christ. God gave me the gift of faith, and it is a miracle I am a Christian Reformed Protestant today. My life has changed, I give it all to Him, I give Him All the credit, He had mercy on me, I deserved none of it. And it isn’t about money or prosperity like the lying prosperity preachers preach.
Walk a mile in my shoes, Tommy Boy, you lucky, bored bastard!
Tom sounds like your typical moral-relativistic, subscriber of liberal pop culture easy believism.
