[QUOTE="forensicbuzz, post: 104962, member: 198"] We're way too sensitive (both ways) to discussions regarding religion today. [USER=341]@Lexjacket[/USER], your strong Christian beliefs, which appear to lean towards evangelical, are part of who you are and should be reflected in how you live your life and how you treat others. As a fellow Christian, I have a slightly different approach to "sharing the Word" than you've stated and probably most others. That is, if you truly live your life according to your belief system, people will see that light in your life and seek out your truth. There is no benefit in proselytizing to people, and you probably do more harm than good. If I want to know about your religious beliefs, I'll ask you. That being said, when asked, I have no problem with anyone answering the question regardless of the forum, such as was apparently the case on his show. If you don't like his answer or discussion with the caller, turn the dial. All this being said, Mark Richt has a tough job (all coaches do). He is surrounded by 18-22 year-old kids, who are from a wide range of socio-economic, cultural and religious backgrounds. He is paid first to win football games and second to teach boys to become men. His vocation should be to shape men from boys first and win football games second. That's Life. We've seen from his track record a mix of success and failure doing this. I don't know the man's heart, but if by living his life as he does, he has a positive impact on the young men around him, I applaud that. However, if he sacrifices his moral beliefs in order to win football games, then he's failed in his most important purpose. All this being said, I wish UGA all the success they deserve...and that means I hope they are complete and utter failures in everything they do. This especially includes Mark Richt and his football team. THWG [/QUOTE]
