Shootin' with The Snapshot

L SHANNA TOVAH

That means happy Jewish new year. To all the Jewish fans out there happy belated Rosh Hashanah or as we like to call it rush a homma. Next week marks another of the Jewish high holy days in Yom Kipper. That is a day of forgiveness. In the wrestling busy there is a lot of sinning. I do not want to get off on a tangent about that. But what seems to be the new gimmick in wrestling is religion. Everyone in the business understands the wrestling lifestyle. You work and you party and you party and party and spend most of your money and then more of your money and down the line when you have very little or no money then you turn to religion to help you out. In wrestling when your a heel or a bad guy / girl and you want to turn face or good you ask the fans to forgive your misdeeds. The same applies now to the people who are playing the religion card. Personally I feel there is nothing wrong with believing in religion and practicing your faith. Everyone needs to believe in something. Everyone needs faith. But now wrestling and religion have become a marriage made in hell. You say one thing and do another. It is just like those 2 blood sucking bums Tammy Faye Baker and Jim Baker living in there fine gold plated house living like kings and queens living on the weekly, monthly or yearly tything of some poor ignorant people barely making minimum wage. I am not saying the religious wrestling people are doing that but if wrestling and religion are associated then there is a dollar to me made somewhere. Take a look at the athletes in ministry, there you will find some of the biggest stars in the industry who have sinned and are trying to turn there life around which I commend, but once they leave comfort and security and camaraderie of the event they attended reality hits and some go back to there past ways. But that is not the worst part. The worst part is that for the good Christians that these people proport to be it is amazing that when it comes to the business end of wrestling these good Christians seem to convert to Judaism.
