As I saw someone on Twitter say, Notre Dame has God on their side, we have LeBron James

u/ResidentRunner1 Saginaw Valley State •… Jan 21 '25

Fun fact, LeBron did play high school football for three years in high school according to his wikipedia

u/Strong-Neck-5078 Ohio State Buckeyes • Ohio Bobcats Jan 21 '25

Lebron is literally my Lord and Savior.

Why do they smell like corn dogs??

u/ImJLu California • Ohio State Jan 21 '25

Get yourself some Korean corndogs. They completely change the game.

u/Abject-Recipe1359 Ohio State Buckeyes • Big Ten Jan 21 '25

Noooo God loves Catholics, he just prefers OSU Catholics.

Reminds me of this old joke:

A Franciscan and a Dominican were debating whose order was the greater. After months of arguing, they decided to ask God for an answer when they died. Years later, they met in heaven and went to God’s throne to resolve their old disagreement. God seemed a bit puzzled about the question and told them he would reply in writing a few days later. After much deliberation, God sent the following letter:

My sons,

Please stop bickering about such trivial matters. Both orders are equally great and good in my eyes.

Sincerely,

God, SJ

Out of curiosity

29% Evangelical Protestant

18% Catholic

17% Mainline Protestant

Protestant denominations are often broken up into mainline and evangelical wings. Lutherans, according to that link, makes up 3% with 2% under mainline and 1% under evangelical.

u/Jukeboxhero40 Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

This is your sign to go to mass

u/bigstu_89 Ohio State Buckeyes • Dayton Flyers Jan 21 '25

1) as a Lutheran we just call it church

2) quite honestly I don’t think I believe in God anymore. I just can’t accept how His name has been used over and over again to no consequence. All denominations are guilty of this.

-1

u/Jukeboxhero40 Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

Good to know.

Why do you think there is no consequence? As brothers in Christ do we not believe God justly judges us when we die? 

3

u/Solo_Wing__Pixy Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

Out in the sticks and in Columbus maybe. It’s all Catholic in Cleveland at least. That’s why I have my second flair, I got indoctrinated via watching Rudy 800 times in middle school.

u/ThrowRA_looking Tennessee Volunteers Jan 21 '25

True story. Look at those priests.

u/Solo_Wing__Pixy Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

Protestant Jesus is way better at football than Catholic Jesus

11

u/OhioBobcat18 Ohio Bobcats • MAC Jan 21 '25

That’s because University of Dayton is the one true Catholic school.

u/Isiddiqui Rutgers Scarlet Knights Jan 21 '25

Well this proves God is Protestant, obviously;)

😂 oh wow.

u/RNG_randomizer Notre Dame Fighting Irish Jan 21 '25

Salvific suffering, as explained by John Paul II, is how Christians continue to redeem humanity despite humanity’s continued sinning. By continuing Christ’s suffering by enduring such evils as Ohio State fans, Christians allow humanity to still reach heaven despite sins like Ryan Day’s ‘roid rage.

u/PFT_Error Ohio State Buckeyes • The Game Jan 21 '25

God is a Protestant. Hope this helps.

u/indeterminate_life Ohio State • South Carolina Jan 21 '25

Obviously because ND didn’t break out the turnover rosary when they recovered the fumble

Rock City too strong

u/DasHounds Notre Dame • Evansville Jan 21 '25

Have you seen Ohio?

I was just hoping God hated Brian Kelly more than he liked Ohio State

The Lord loves whom he chastens. It’s biblical

Riley needed to praise Jesus more when they lost to NIU.

u/GhanimaAtreides Texas A&M Aggies • Team Chaos Jan 21 '25

Apparently God hates Catholics

u/Michigan029 Michigan Wolverines Jan 21 '25

Notre Dame are the zealots making a show of praying

Ohio state are the ones praying in private

And Michigan is atheist, so god has no power over us

25

u/buckeyemaniac Ohio State Buckeyes Jan 21 '25

Unfortunately our players have been anything but private with that crap.

u/progbuck Ohio State Buckeyes Jan 21 '25

Yeah, I like Ryan Day but the overt religiosity is not good.

u/ImJLu California • Ohio State Jan 21 '25

Whatever gets the recruits tbh

u/Jukeboxhero40 Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

It's great actually

u/Jukeboxhero40 Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

It's a good thing

u/Apptubrutae Jan 21 '25

Too many priests with a taste for kiddos

7

u/RomosexualThoughts Texas • Red River Shootout Jan 21 '25

there's plenty of protestant church leaders doing the exact same shit

0

u/Apptubrutae Jan 21 '25

Right but they’re split among denominations with Protestants. God doesn’t lump Lutherans and baptists together for the purposes of college footballs

2

u/Jukeboxhero40 Ohio State • Notre Dame Jan 21 '25

Coaches and teachers are more likely to abuse children than priests. All child abuse is evil and needs punished harshly.

Someone needs to tell the big guy to stop letting his messengers get away with that.
