colorado rockies wants jesus on their team

ok, remember when i posted about baseball's faith night? it's gone a step further kids...

an excerpt from a frightening article:

In a remarkable article from USA Today last week, the Colorado Rockies went public with the news that the organization has been explicitly looking for players with "character." And according to the Tribe of Coors, "character" means accepting Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior. "We're nervous, to be honest with you," Rockies general manager Dan O'Dowd said. "It's the first time we ever talked about these issues publicly. The last thing we want to do is offend anyone because of our beliefs."

O'Dowd and company bend over backward in the article to say they are "tolerant" of other views on the club, but that's contradicted by statements like this from CEO Monfort: "I don't want to offend anyone, but I think character-wise we're stronger than anyone in baseball. Christians, and what they've endured, are some of the strongest people in baseball. I believe God sends signs, and we're seeing those."

read the rest of this bullshit, here.

all i have to say is, fuck baseball. you can have it. watch all the average people in the world run away, flailing from this game because their assholes hurt from having jesus pumped in it every time they want to enjoy a game. how is that fair? fuck all you moral high horse christians who can't handle a world with people that think differently. fuck you and shame on you. seriously. if i wanted to find salvation, i'd go to a damned church, not a baseball field.

i think the NFL should start having darwin days. yeah. we could have chimps sing the national anthem, and introduce them as "our ancestors!" and give away posters of the galapagos, sell t-shirts with the HMS Beagle on 'em. even better, darwin dolls!:



fuck faith night, and fuck your severe discrimination in the name of christ. how utterly ashamed of you he would be.
