Why did NBC censor NFL players wearing Christian jewelry?

S.Saturday night’s NFL playoff game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Los Angeles Chargers was timeless. The Jaguars accomplished one of his greatest comebacks in NFL history, overcoming a 27–0 deficit and winning the game with his goal in the final out of the second field by kicker Riley Patterson.

Prior to the kick, Patterson pulled out the cross he was wearing around his neck and kissed him. After his triumphant boot, while celebrating, Patterson held up a cross that appeared to be his way of giving thanks to God. It seemed far from where it was.

Based on the sequence of events and the many cameras that refused to show Patterson holding the cross, it appeared that this was done on purpose. For those who saw Kick live, it’s a foregone conclusion.

Patterson’s enthusiasm for celebrating Christianity was just the latest cultural disrespect by the Left. Given their desire to rid our society of the nation’s Christian foundations and the Judeo-Christian principles of its founding, he is not the last. We must resist the attacks of the Left and resist this shift away from God.

Because despite the best efforts of the Left, the United States is not a godless nation. Now it’s up to Christians to make sure it never becomes one.
