Because, ya know, Christians are so oppressed in this country.

1. If baseball or any professional sports team wants to provide mandatory church services

then they should only draft and trade for players that belong to a specific religion and denomination.

I felt uncomfortable being in churches that were of a different denominations. Even at times in a church that was a sister church.

What turns me off when watching a game is when a player does the finger to god bit. They are ef n idiots to believe that god cares about a minor game especially if they are involved in inappropriate behavior on or off the field.

2. god spends almost all his time on sports these days...

He used to do weather, natural disasters, government leaders, and diseases. But we now have Nature or Democracy in charge of those. That gives god more time to affect sports results and the hip-hop division of the Grammy Awards.
