I just happened to watch "The Price is Right" this morning, even though I don't like game shows. There was a young man who made it through and Drew Carey asked who he was with....there were a whole group of young people wearing green t-shirts. The young man seemed vague about who they were and what they were doing. He said something like "we're studying world religion". Then when he was spinning the wheel, Drew asked if the young guy wanted to say "Hi" to anyone and the guy said this:

"I LOVE JESUS CHRIST AS MY LORD AND SAVIOR"!!!!!!

I said "Yes"!!!!! We need more of this!!!! Drew Carey handled it very well, I might add. He even said "God bless you" at the end of the show!!

I just thought it was very precious and VERY encouraging.

Wow, that's very cool. It's so encouraging to me when I see a believer who is on television, for whatever reason, use that opportunity to tell the world about Christ.

That is great,this reminds me of Tim Tebow who won the Heisman trophy(2007), the quarterback for the Florida Gators said that he gave all praise and glory to the Lord for his talents and abilities in winning the award.

Would you feel the same way if it was someone of another faith proclaiming their belief or an athiest?

Of course its only because he said something you guys agree with. Personally if I am watching a non religious show, I don't expect religion to come up, whatever religion you are talking about.

I personally think its a little fanatical to think that religion should even be invading secular things like game shows.

Actually it would not bother me if an Athiest was proclaiming their faith. Personally I wouldn' really care, everyone has the right to their own belief. Actually I don't think that it is fanatical, someone just wanted to proclaim what they believe in. If people have a problem with that, then it may seem that someone just has a personal issue with what's really going on.
