I heard that Lance Armstrong, with the Livestrong wristbands, has admitted that he doesn't believe in God. Does anyone know if that's true? I haven't even began looking yet. Just curious.

Thanks in advance!

In His love,
Tink

I read somewhere that He used to believe in God, but after he beat cancer, he stopped believing, and says that "it wasn't God who saved him, it was the scientists and doctors who helped him".

That's sad.

I know one thing, I won't be wearing the livestrong bracelet anymore. I don't want to represent that in case he doesn't believe. I'll continue to pray for him , though.

In His love,
Tink

Meh, I believe his father was a preacher's son, and a wacked out religious nut at that who used to constantly beat him. Can't blame the guy for hating religion.

I hate religion myself. Hating religion and not believing in God are two different things.

Not to most people, they identify them as the same thing.

Maybe I'm blessed to be around mostly people that know the difference.

Are they same thing to you? I mean, God doesn't equal religion, just as religion doesn't equal God. :shrug:

I don't know. This wasn't meant to start an argument and I sincerely hope you're not offended by my replies in any way. I do hope that they cause you to think, though. :D

In His love,
Tink

Uhh what are you talking about? I didn't see any hint of an argument or something. I was just informing you on Lance's position and that most people identify God and religion as the same thing, and the very fact that I know that implies that I see a difference between the two.
