Test of faith
AN EXCRUCIATING number of sportsmen (and women) seem determined to attribute victories to God/Their Lord/Jesus. When victorious they can't shut up about Him/Her.
It occurred to me yesterday, when they fail horribly (Aaron Baddeley-style), the same Lord seems to avoid any blame — I'd be interested to know whether these moments test their faith?
I'd truly love to see Zach Johnson, Badds.com or Andre Agassi rant and rave in anger at God for letting them down — it would make as much sense as thanking him/her for the win.

Have you got a good response? I just sent mine off. (letters@theage.com.au)
