Zone1 2024 Olympians who gave God the glory

[buttercup]

After the horrible opening ceremony at the Paris 2024 Olympics, I was happily surprised to see so many medal-winning athletes giving the glory to God, in a variety of ways.

I'm just going to share a few pics and videos here....


Gabriel Medina (Surfing, Brazil)




And here's the iconic shot that is so surreal looking, people might think it's photoshopped or AI, but it's a real shot....

I think the second athlete was censored on NBC or whomever the U.S network was covering the olympics.

They cut out about 10 seconds of her interview and it was posted in full by someone.

To each their own and their Faith. Some don't like to hear about others beliefs I suppose, it makes them insecure. I'm not one such person.

Well... there are a few things I could say in response to that. Things that I think any person with common sense would agree with. But I didn't want this to turn into just another debate (bickering) thread, so...I won't. But thanks for your thought on that anyway.
