10 Reasons why GOD HATES SOCCER!

There is a reason why God's favorite nation America could care less about soccer while Hell bound nations like Australia, Iceland, Holland, New Zealand, Ireland, and Denmark are all playing soccer (some even dare to call it football) all the time. While Americans play God's chosen sports like Baseball, American Football and Basketball the rest of the world is pleasing Satan with soccer. Everyone either involved or interested in soccer will burn in Hell for all eternity.

1st Corinthians 10:31 "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God."

#1 Soccer is all about lying and cheating!
The most common way to win a soccer match is to trick the referee into giving you a penalty by feigning an injury, to make it appear as if a foul has been committed. Soccer players are specialized in dropping down and pretending to be hurt. They study children of 3 years or younger to learn how to perfect this technique. If the match is very important, like a world championship, they usually just bribe the referee to win. Proverbs 6:16-19 "... the LORD hate ... a lying tongue ... A false witness that speaketh lies ..."

#2 Soccer players want to be treated like prophets!
Too weak or slow to play football? Play soccer. Too short or slow to play basketball? Play soccer. Even though soccer doesn't require any athletic talent or advanced motor skills, soccer players somehow convinced themselves to be very special. Huge crowds of drunk soccer fans worship these arrogant brats as if they are Jesus Christ Himself. Matthew 24:24 "... false prophets ... deceive the very elect."

#3 Soccer is mostly about sex and drugs!
In 1974 the Dutch lost the World Championship soccer because their players had so much sex and drugs before the world cup final with Germany that they forgot to show up. Someone even wrote a book about it! Ephesians 5:18 "... be not drunk ..."

#4 Soccer players are extremely lazy!
If you have a very strong stomach and you can watch soccer for a few minutes without puking your guts out, just pay attention to a single player. It doesn't matter which one. Most of the time this player will either be standing still, or slowly walking from one place to another. If you look even closer you will notice all players only cover a small part of the playing field to minimize the chance of getting tired to an absolute minimum. Proverbs 12:24 "... the lazy man ..."

#5 Soccer prevents people from going to Church!
Most soccer training and soccer matches are on Sundays! Satan deliberately designed soccer this way to doom as much people as possible to Hell by preventing them from going to Church! Acts 20:17 "... the elders of the church."

#6 Soccer makes people gay!
Soccer is all about grown man hugging and touching each other in ways only gays would approve off. The favorite part of a soccer match is when the actual match is over and all players can get naked together in a huge shower. There is not a single soccer player in the world who is not gay. It's reasons like this that make ultra-gays like Sir Elton John a soccer fan! Romans 1:26-27 "... burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly ..."


#7 God has sent us many signs He hates Soccer!
God has warned humanity many times by sending crystal clear signs that He hates soccer! Clear signs like the Heyse Stadium disaster, the Hillsborough disaster, the Orkney Stadium Disaster, the Ellis Park Stadium Disaster and the Accra Sports Stadium Disaster leave 0% room for doubt that God hates soccer with a vengeance! Luke 18:27 "... The things which are impossible with men are possible with God."

#8 Soccer supporters are extremely violent!
If a bunch of soccer hooligans would have attacked Afghanistan, we would have won already! Soccer violence is without limits and is the most extreme form of violence known to man. Soccer hooligans are all totally insane psychopaths who completely lose every shred of humanity. Psalm 73:6 "... violence covereth them as a garment ..."

#9 Soccer and fascism are actually the same thing!
No one in their right mind can deny the connection between soccer and fascism. It is very common for soccer fans to wear Nazi symbols and to shout Nazi insults during soccer matches. In German concentration camps zyklon was used to kill as many Jews as possible. For this reason Umbro named their extremely popular soccer shoe Zyklon!

The English (!) soccer team in 1938:


#10 France is successful at soccer!
And to prove for once and for all that God really really hates soccer, just note that France is successful at soccer! Psalm 9:17 "... all the nations that forget God."

All people wasting time on soccer need to repent and accept Jesus Christ as their savior! Until then, they will suffer and they will burn in Hell along with people wasting time on Tennis, Golf, Cricket, Gymnastics, Swimming, Ice Skating, Lacrosse, Curling, Rugby, Softball, Cycling, Hiking, Horse Racing, Skiing, Snowboarding, Triathlon, Wrestling, etc.

<FACEPALM>
Are you serious?
Quite apart from the fact that your god and your jesus did not create football, I can easily respond to those ten points.
#1 Soccer is all about lying and cheating!
Ehhhhhh.... No, it is not. Have you ever been to a game before? It is rare enough that that happens, and you are seriously not trying to say that no other sport ON THE PLANET has cheaters?
#2 Soccer players want to be treated like prophets!
You mean, like every OTHER pro athlete? The players are not trying to be praised as your god. They have fans because they are skilled. Some people can understand that.
#3 Soccer is mostly about sex and drugs!
Umm... What?
When I was three, I joined the local U6 soccer league. I have to admit, I had a lot of fun. Why not? Soccer is a popular, fun sport. When I was three, I NEVER did drugs or had sex. I have NO CLUE what THAT is all about. Oh yeah, and one more thing: You, again, are not trying to tell me that football players, (cough cough LYLE ALZADO cough cough) baseball players, (cough cough ALEX RODRIGUEZ cough cough) and basketball players (cough cough CHRIS WASHBURN cough cough) have never done illegal drugs or game-changing steroids.
#4 Soccer players are extremely lazy!
I would like to see YOU play a full-length game for an hour and a half, plus stoppage. Remember, each team only has three substitutions in a game. That means that most of the players are going to be playing for a LONG time. Of course it is only natural that they would not sprint all the time! If you can sprint around kicking a ball and scoring goals for an hour and a half, then I would be extremely impressed. However, the difference between you and soccer players is this: Soccer players have brains. They, at the beginning of a ninety-minute game, do NOT expend all their energy, especially when you keep in mind the whole three-substitute rule.
#5 Soccer prevents people from going to Church!
Evidence shows that people have been playing soccer-like games since approximately 2500 BCE (Before Common Era). That means that it is about 4,500 years old. People did not go to church that far back; at least, not Christian ones. Sunday is a good day for soccer. Apart from the fact that games are not all in the morning, the week is also played. It is like hockey. Every day (or other day) there is a game. This link shows thee schedule of games in England for the year.

http://espnfc.com/team/fixtures/_/id/448/england?cc=5901

#6 Soccer makes people gay!
No, soccer is not about 'grown man hugging and touching each other'. It is about putting the ball in the net. It is like hockey, without ice, sticks or skates, and with a ball. Simple. You want a sport that has grown men feeling each other? American Football. They are too busy rubbing each other to notice where the ball is half the time! One more thing. There are many gay football players, and GUESS WHAT? Fire and brimstone and plague and death and destruction has somehow inexplicably FAILED to plague this world. Go figure!
#7 God has sent us many signs He hates Soccer!
A.K.A. There has never been any American football, baseball or basketball disasters. Ever. Yeah, right.
#8 Soccer supporters are extremely violent!
They are simply excited. And YET AGAIN, are you saying that American football fans are not violent? Baseball? Basketball? How about the riots after the Grey Cup?
#9 Soccer and fascism are actually the same thing!
Uhhhhh........
Once again, you are incorrect. Soccer has been around since 2500 BCE. That obviously outlives the Nazis. As for the swastika and nazi insults, well... All I can say is that when I played in the Little Soccer League, I never shouted 'Hail Hitler'! The Swastika... I have never seen it worn on a player. Please show me an image of this. But even then, it does not matter. The word "swastika" comes from the Sanskrit svastika - "su" meaning "good," "asti" meaning "to be," and "ka" as a suffix. Until the Nazis used this symbol, the swastika was used by many cultures throughout the past 3,000 years to represent life, sun, power, strength, and good luck. Even in the early twentieth century, the swastika was still a symbol with positive connotations. For instance, the swastika was a common decoration that often adorned cigarette cases, postcards, coins, and buildings. During World War I, the swastika could even be found on the shoulder patches of the American 45th Division and on the Finnish air force until after World War II. It was a symbol of peace, before the Nazis used it for... well... you know. It is actually very sad to think about it as a symbol of luck, love and strength of the soul being mutated into the hated symbol of today.
#10 France is successful at soccer!
Now that's just racist. And completely off topic. And fairly inaccurate, too. France loses many of its games. Sure, it is not the worst team, but it is somewhere in the middle-top. Not the best.
As for the rest of the sports at the bottom...
Let's pretend that I am a Christian. I have discovered the cure for cancer. I have solved world hunger and world peace. I have given every single homeless person a home and loving family. Unfortunately, I went for a hike in the mountains, so I go to Hell. Or maybe I am a gymnast, so I go to hell. What is wrong with rugby, anyway? It is very similar to football, but with slightly different changes in the gear and field.

You still haven't bothered to explain how you resolve the discrepancy between Scripture from the Bible (ie. Proverbs 16:4, "The Lord hath made all things for himself: Yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.", Isaiah 45: 7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.") and your contention that God does not create bad people.

If you want to claim to be Christian, a good place to start would be to stop saying that God lied in the Bible.

"...So God created man..." <--- note the SINGULAR "man" and NOT "men".

That says God created Adam in His image. Did Eve have a penis?

And all this is leaving alone the "...Let US make man in our image, in OUR likeness..." can of worms.

No friend, you are completely wrong. All people are born full of sin and evil. It is only by loving God and proving our devotion to Him that God may forgive us for being so utterly worthless. That cannot even begin to happen until a child is baptized.
Genesis 8:21And the Lord smelled a sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

Psalm 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Proverbs 20:9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?

Ecclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.

Mark 7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
Mark 7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
Mark 7:23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

Luke 16:15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

Romans 3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:

Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Romans 6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.

Romans 7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Hebrews 3:10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart ); and they have not known my ways. They shall not enter into my rest.

In context actually even clearer.

8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Take heed, brethren,lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17

Didy has read the Word of God over the internets, and has no doubt read them aloud so he heard them, and so faith has come!

Too bad he doesn't realize it yet, but I am praising God for his inevitable conversion!

Don't give up, Didy! We have you on our Wall o' Prayer and we will pray and praise God in thanksgiving in anticipation of you realizing you have faith!

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES SOCCER!

Romans 12:19 " do not take revenge my friends, but leave room for Gods wrath, for it is written: ' it is mine to avenge; I will repay," says The Lord. On the contrary " if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.". Do not overcome evil by evil, but overcome evil with good.

In no way do I support homosexuality, atheism, etc. but hating them makes us no different than them. It's Gods job to condemn them, not ours. When the prostitute was brought before Jesus to see whether to stone her or not. He said " let him who is without sin cast the first stone" they all left because they were all sinners . There's nothing wrong with message of " repent or die". It's the hateful tone in which it is spoken that I take issue with.

[Cranky Old Man]

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES SOCCER!

I don't share your point of view . Nowhere in the bible does it say " LOVE ONLY CHRISTIANS AND HATE ALL SINNERS". Show me even ONE piece of scripture that says this and I will take back everything I've said

People like you who ignore 99% of the Bible yet claim to be Christians anyway make me sick. And please stop with all this "context" crap. The Bible says what it says. It's against God's laws to change it in any way form or shape (Deuteronomy 4:2, Revelation 22:18-19, Psalm 12:6-7). You cannot ignore the parts of the Bible you dislike by screaming context over and over again. You have to follow 100% of it (James 2:10).

Also, according to your own promise (which I predict here for the entire Internet to see you will break), it's time to take back everything you said:

2 Corinthians 6:14-17
King James Version (KJV)

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

And no, you cannot weasle yourself out of this with "context". The Bible really says this (just check your own Bible if you don't believe me) and yes, that means we really have to do this.

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES SOCCER!

Do you know what I call hate? Hate is when you don't drag a drowning man out of the sea because you don't want to get wet. Saying "it's Gods job to condemn them" is just a lame excuse.

We have to YELL it in their faces! Homosexuals have sunken to the deepest depth of sin and shame, if we want to wake them up for Christ we really have to SHAKE them awake! This is tough love, not hate. They have to regret and repent of their sins!

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them - Ephesians 5:11

This is what I really don't understand. When some coon in bong bong land insists on drinking filthy disease ridden water would you simply stand there and watch because you don't want to upset their 'culture'?

No of course not. You would ensure they had access to a decent source of clean print Bibles(KJV1611) to ensure their Salvation(tm).

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES SOCCER!

These verses are telling us to not be like them. We are supposed to be different than them .and I totally agree with this. But what's the point of walking around with a hate filled heart all the time spreading the word . Why don't you read your New Testament a bit more eh? When Jesus went around ministering and healing, you actually think he did so with a hateful spirit? I think some other people on here are skipping out parts of the bible
