"I was thinking to myself, God put us in this position," said L.S.U. quarterback JaMarcus Russell. "He got us this far and we just had to put a little extra hard work in." On fourth-and-10, Russell threw a touchdown pass and L.S.U. won. The prayers on the A.S.U. sideline were ignored.

From WOO©:
God wants me to tell you that He doesn't appreciate you mocking Him with the insane ramblings of lunatics. The god they speak of is Satan, their god, the other voice in our heads. If you had read the one true God's word, the Bible, then this would be clear to you as would many other things that seem wrong about this life. He gave us free will, and He won't usurp it. It is ours to decide whether to dwell in Heaven or in Hell, both here on earth, and for eternity. God is real, and so is Satan. But Satan would prefer you to think that neither exist.

From dande41:
Have you read the Bible? The Bible is God's words to His people. No where in the Bible have I ever read that God directed His people to do any of the appalling things in your article. May God have mercy on your soul for the things that you printed in His name! Read the Bible and then tell me where I can find references to what is printed in this article. God bless you and forgive you.

From David:
The other Christians who wrote to you are fucks. Can I say fucks? I hope so. The fucks that wrote in about, "Read the Bible blah blah blah" should take a serious look at themselves. Just because you are Christian doesn't mean that you have to be militant about it, and it doesn't mean you can't laugh about it. Here's a joke for you: Jesus walks into a hotel, hands the innkeeper three nails and says "Can you put me up for the night?" Now that's funny.

From Nikki:
David, God doesn't break his Commandments, which means that he didn't tell these people to do these terrible things. And these terrible things are not funny. Murder is not funny! If anybody else who reads this believes in God and prayer, David needs it. ;)
