According to Jameka God is in fact playing a hand in the outcome of the BB show.

Did you notice the church organ music that the editors mixed in when Jameka was talking about God and his role in the game during the POV show this week?

So do you agree or not with what Jameka is putting out there?

Or do you agree with Dick and his take on God's interest in the show?

Who do YOU thing is right?

I don't believe there's a right or wrong when it comes to people's religious beliefs. It's sad that so many wars are fought over relatively small differences. My beliefs are not the same as either Jameka's or Dick's, but I do believe that a higher power is at work in all things but not as a micro-manager.

As far as WAR goes... is there a better reason to fight a war than over a belief system in a God?

Doesn't anything less than a dispute about religion seem trite?

I believe Jameka's insistance that God give a hoot in hell about BB is ridiculous.

If one believes that God created the Heavens and the Earth, and all mankind I just don't believe that God would want anyone to destroy what he created.

God gave us free will.

If we wage war, would it be better to do it over oil? Over land? Over God himself? Sure God might not want us to wage war, but what better reason to wage war than in the name of God? Right?

I believe that using religion as an excuse for war is true. But war is really just about greed, control and power. That has nothing to do with God.

I'll go back to an older show called "3rd rock from the sun"..that show would always make fun of "humans"..and in one of the episodes the child of the family of aliens is going to be in a basketball game..and before they go out to play, the coach says a prayer that their team will win..and the kid looks at the coach and says.."but coach, what if the other team is praying that they will win"..and of course the coach brushed him off..So..I don't think that God is interested in BB..
Not to get preachy- but the bible says "time and unforeseen occurance befall us all"..so things happen..they just simply happen.

God care about BB......bwahhahahhahaha. Whatever, just like the two teams getting ready for the coin toss in the super bowl game, both teams prayed to God in the locker room to be the victorious one. So which one does God choose. Really, think about, do you honestly think God give a rats butt about BB. I think at this moment God is too busy worrying about all the people that died in Minneapolis this evening, and the countless others that are injured and still missing.

God may not be interested in BB, but I believe He is interested in His children in the BB House. No one is too insignificant for His concern and care.

To protect freedom so that we can practice that free will that God gave us.

As far as God and BB...I doubt He cares about a game called BB but He may have a direction and purpose for some in that house especially if they exercise their free will to serve him to the best of their ability. That direction and purpose is not necessarily winning but maybe just witnessing or any other higher purpose that He would know much more about than me.

As an Atheist, of course I don't agree with Jameka. It's just her way of justifying things, or having a "reason" why things happen. EVERY single person I know who is "religious" or has faith in a higher power always finds "loopholes" to explain why they are exempt from doing certain things. In every single religion, it's almost impossible for all the followers to behave the same, believe the same; so if you base a war on religion, it will go on for infinity--- and HOW would you determine who won?! Are my kids exempt from that war since they don't practice a "religion?!" I think if people need/want to rely on the Bible, there's nothing wrong with it, as long as they don't push others to do it, or judge them by anything other than their actions. Religion, or lack of it, is a personal thing, but the way you treat others is definitely telling of the kind of person you truly are on the inside...

No, I believe He is never too busy to know even about the sparrow.

I want Dick to stay enough the house long enough for Jameka to reach him with God's love and grace.

THAT would be more up "God's will ally" for Jameka, than that the ping pong ball. Seriously.

i agree with ladytex on this one (actually, i can't remember a time when we've disagreed!). God cares about the people, not the game.

I can't wait to see her actions when she's up on the block... will she bother campaigning, or will she think God wants her up on the block? She could've interpreted the ping pong ball at least 2 different ways: 1. God chose her to play her hardest to get Jen off the block, 2. God chose her to play to KEEP the nominees the same--- she even changed her mind the next day!! How does she truly know what the message is?

I see Jameka's use of God, in that way...at that time, was a good strategic move for her. Nothing more than that.

Thru out the game, Jemeka has proclaimed being a Christian...which very well could be true. But she hasn't played this game without lying and deceiving.

People are beginning to see...just because she claims to be a Christian...she's still not trust worthy.

She did this to earn peoples trust.

I doubt she even believes her own story.

I'm with Ladytex on this one, but I am a bit worried about Jameka in all this. She has cut quite a fine line to walk, and any mistep by her will be harmful to the message she's trying to send. I wish her well, and I hope she does it - heck, I'll even pray for her. But I wouldn't put myself in that situation. There's a reason I don't put christian bumper stickers on my car - sooner or later, I'll mess up and that will just make God look bad.

Tobor, nice to see you and your thought provoking questions. lol

More people on this earth died because of religion. Does God care about BB? NO!

The devil is a little more interested as it's a game of lies and deceit.
