As a long term resident of the Philadelphia area and a casual sports fan I have to withstand the rhetoric that spews out of the mouths of the religious wingnuts that surround the professional sports teams, especially the Eagles. Their quarterback posted on twitter that after he got hurt for the fourth time in four years that it is all part of gods plan. Makes me furious.

Too much damage to their brains, perhaps?

If every thing is all a part of god's plan, then why pray for the team to win or for a loved one to come home from the hospital alive, etc.?

Pretty tame really.

We have a rugby player in Australia who says the fires are because Australia legalised same sex marriage.
