It's funny because if they hadn't done that, most people in the world would not even be hearing about the playoff game. It's kind of similar to the relationship of Jesus compared to other religious figureheads. Jesus died for us and that's how he's really remembered. It seems like a lot of other religious figureheads, especially in today's world, are trying to be remembered for killing, rather than for dieing. I think it’s really cool what those girls did!

It just took me so long to figure out that God and Jesus love everybody RIGHT now...not some future, more moral, better decision making, less sinful version of us...but the jacked up people we all tend to be...He loves us right now...and so I keep wondering, if learning that Jesus loves me RIGHT NOW, broken pieces and all, has meant that much to me...what can learning that do to other people... and so I ask you...what do you think God thinks of you?...because I think His thoughts on us are gorgeous...and I think Death Cab did a pretty sweet job of painting a little piece of the heart of Christ...
