Dwayne Wade Can Kiss My Ass

This is essentially a direct rip-off of ~I Am's~ post about Carrie Underwood.



No, Dwayne Wade has not started a country music career, but if he did, I am sure it would be very similar to Underwood in it's abundant references to God. Why do I think that? Well apparently Wade felt it necessary to subject the general populace to an explanation of his "faith" in God in the form of a Converse ad. I wouldn't really care except for the tag line.

If your curious you can see the ad for your self at Converse.com.

Now, it doesn't matter to me if he can't sleep at night without a spiritual comfort item. My three year old has a teddy bear and a favorite blanket, Wade has God. I also don't care if he feels the need to justify away his talent by giving the credit to God, but I am sick and tired of being told that my life is meaningless, worthless, bleak, or otherwise "lost", unless I subscribe to an illogical destructive self effacing delusion. I am not lost. Should I get lost, I'll get a map and GPS, not a bible.
What really sucks, is that if he had said, "if you don't have faith in Santa Clause, you're lost." people would just laugh at him. But, sense his imaginary friend is "God" it's not just OK, it's a "brave message of faith". It just makes me sick.

Oh yeah, I'm not going to buy the stupid shoes either.
