Default Daniel Negreanu - A Pro\'s Perspective

i look up to negreanu as a fellow christian poker player w/ amazing talent and overall great guy. and im sure many of u do too (maybe not for the same reasons)

so here are his thoughts in yesterday's blog (toward the bottom)
"The weasel is a self-righteous douche bag who has decided to push upon us his moral agenda by claiming that online poker is "bad.""

Yeah, I'm also a pro. Nice to meet you. My perspective is largely the same as his. Unfortunately, I don't have endorsement deals.

Dude, he is not only a Christian; he is a fundamentalist wacko Christian. (And I mean that in the nicest possible way.)

Why, because he used the phrase 'self-righteous douche bag'? So what? Why is everyone so intent on pretending that they know what every Christian is like? I'm one, and I'd say the same thing (douchebag), partly because I hate being lumped into a category with Frist. I want to make this clear, being a Christian does not make you a right wing fundamentalist. For many people, it simply means that you believe in God, grace, forgiveness, and human rights.

what is the point of your post? its quite unclear.

you think he has an interesting and unique viewpoint?
you think christians shouldn't use language like his?
