NFL Kicker Misses Game-Winning Field Goal After Telling Atheists To Believe In God Due To His Kicks

NFL Kicker Misses Game-Winning Field Goal After Telling Atheists To Believe In God Due To His Kicking [VIDEO]
October 28, 2019 Religion, Sports

Hemant Mehta reports at the Friendly Atheist:

About a month ago, Chicago Bears kicker Eddy Piñeiro made a game-winning field goal. He reacted with a tweet telling atheists they should start believing in God. He was even more specific during a post-game interview in which he said, “If you don’t believe in Jesus Christ, you better start, because he’s real. I promise you that.”

Funny thing about that. Earlier today [yesterday], Piñeiro missed what would have been a game-winning kick. I just want a reporter to ask Piñeiro if he’s an atheist now. Or if the missed kick was part of God’s plan, which makes his earlier boast even more ridiculous in hindsight.

If you don’t believe in God you better start believing he’s REAL thank you chicago!



God's to-do list:

1) Artificially inseminate virgin girl ✅
2) Cure child cancer ❌
3) Prevent natural disaster ❌
4) Help Karen find car keys ✅
5) Make ball go through yellow thing sometimes ✅



The Bears still can't make a kick..

Eddy Pineiro misses the 41 yard game winner 😑

Piniero's comeuppance adds a momentary smile to the frown of this bears fan.

A few years ago a QB had several interceptions in a game.
That evening someone posted that he went home and put a loaded gun to his head, but fortunately all six bullets missed.
