Default Is jesus playing poker?

Strange question, yes I know, but let me explain.

I was just watching the World Series of Poker and several of the players, when they won a pot, said "Thank you, Jesus!" as if this mythical figure was there with them. The funny part is that it seems like he is helping a number of players. Very funny!

Are people that stupid?

Damn straight they are. My cousin thanked Jesus for getting her through a hard test for which she studied for weeks. Shows how low people's self esteem is...

It's wonderful that we've come to a point where we can assess people's intelligence and mental health based a few comments. Marvelous I tell you!

Knowing the guys who play on WSOP it was most likely uttered in sarcasm.

All the ones I heard were women.

Wishbonedawn, do you have anything to say. Do you think jesus helped those women to win the hands for later have them lose and exit the tournament?

Is Jesus Playing Poker?

Last time I checked. it seemed he was not only playing poker but also football, basketball, baseball, and competing for Oscars, Grammies, Emmies and Tonies. (And for some reason god hated Judy Garland, Cary Grant, and Jack Benny)
