He is just trolling, thinks we get upset by it.

I have no issue whatsoever for athletes thanking God for their achievements if thats their thing, it's the couch potato that ignores the athletes dedication and the coaching crew and jumps on the God wagon as if it earns them brownie points from their imaginary friend. 

You see it all the time in patients that praise God for their survival and never mention the people that have dedicated their lives to saving people. The very ones that never leave it in the hands of their God but seek out people to save their sorry ass.

Believers show a remarked lack of faith in their God when the chips are down.

Case in point, fails to mention the surgeon and all the other PEOPLE, that helped fixed it for him without who ne would probably never recovered.

The Wall Street Journal reports on Kevin Durant's recovery and comeback to the NBA following an Achilles tear in 2019 according to HSS foot and ankle surgeon Martin J. O'Malley, MD, who performed Durant's repair surgery, as well as his rehab team. 

Could be just pedobendover being dishonest again by we are used to that.

Lewis could write:_

"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen, not only because I see it but because I see everything else." 

The unbeliever cannot see the glory of the gospel because Satan has blinded his eyes.

Moonrover so many great Christians in all walks of life.

Poor MOC imagines the Universe created itself out of nothing. Then he talks about our imaginery God. Hahahahahaha. Poor guy is really not too bright!.

Rooitwit too has never been able to explain why a Universe  exists.

Science says there was once no universe and now there is. 

I have waited for years for these dumb clucks to answer this but they can't and now just run away. Hahahahaha.

Yep and then one of them says there's always been a universe but obviously doesn't know the 2nd law of thermodymics. 

It is a universal empiral law which this poor sod by-passed in order to favor his atheist fantasy.
