But religion isn't about "rulz" unless they're the rules they are trying to force on you.  Those being how you should walk, talk, what you can do with your own body, who you can or can't marry, etc.  Oh and don't forget the rule where the rest of us are supposed to cater to them and their simple minded expectations of deference.

Ok, let me get this straight.....If he had just gone to his knees it would have been celebrating but since he went to his knees to thank God for letting him make the touch down it wasn't breaking the rules because he wasn't really celebrating so his rule negates their rule....

No, he can't go to his knees at all.

I think the whole ... flagging someone for celebrating is a stupid rule in the first place........the fans, in most cases, enjoy watching THIER team celebrate........are the officials WORRIED, that they are "offending" the other team?........

personally, I prefer a guy to just hand the football to the official and keep on playing...but, I think a guy should be able to do his thing, as long as he is not delaying the game any.

either way.........i really don't care.

I know that and you know that but, using his rational, I don't think he realizes that because his reason for doing it wasn't to celebrate.  I think my statement must have went over your head.  :wink:

"Gone over your head," dear.  You might not want to put your illiteracy on parade while trying to insult someone else's intelligence.  :rolleyes:

Boy are you touchy today.  I think you need to go back and read Locutus' post and then read my reply again.  If it continues to go over your head just stand up and maybe that will help.  :wink:
