I'm Jewish, can I play?

11/4/2006 12:01:14 AM

Yes, I'll definitely look into this. There are not very many christains up here though. We are few in numbers.

Can atheists join, and will there be a lot of proselytizing?

11/4/2006 12:17:49 AM

If I convert to Islam will you let me play?

11/4/2006 12:18:46 AM

I have "GOD IS GAY" tattooed on my forehead, can I play?

I think this thread needs to be locked before it gets out of hand.

Everyone knows that Christians shoot better FG% than Jews. Even Jesus only averaged 42% for his career.

I'm Mormon, can I have 7 on my team?

11/4/2006 1:39:23 AM

Is it a Pentacostal league? I'll only play if I can celebrate a field goal by smacking a guy in the face and speaking in tongues.

It makes me feel better to make fun of religion to satisfy the emptiness in my life. I'm really crying out for someone to love me. So, can I play??

I attend a United Methodist Church that does not discriminate against homosexuals. If our team has homosexuals on it, can we play in this league? Or is homosexuality considered "unsportsmanlike conduct"?

i knew once i saw the title of this thread, that even if it was legit, it had no chance as far as its original purpose

11/4/2006 10:17:12 AM

im half blk and half irish, but I dont like white people, can I play too?

11/4/2006 4:46:00 PM

i'm sure they welcome non-christians to play, but the league is christian based, hence the rules. you people.

i'm sure they don't

why wouldnt they? most organizations like this are more concerned with outreach than being insular.

I'd be gone in the first two minutes with that profanity rule

11/4/2006 5:24:03 PM
