Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 11, 2020

who was the hotshot golfer at the time of this day’s strip’s original publishing?

Well, He thinks He’s Arnold Palmer…

Or a football game, or a baseball game, or a basketball game…

It’s all a matter of balls.

Or a football game, or a basketball game, or a baseball game, or…

God bless golf

There are some present day professional golfers who either think they are ‘god’, or act like it because the media has put them up on a pedestal so high that they’ve deluded themselves.

Golf. The boringest sport ever.

Be glad in most states golf courses reopened with social distance and face mask rules to prevent COVID-19!

Supernatural power is cheating

God doesn’t care about your bank account, the kind of car you drive, what your title is at work, …

We foolish mortals worry about the wrong things.

When it gets down to it; all we have are ourselves and each other.

So do I.

One thing He does care about is Friday, as in TGIF. Snicker. :)

She doesn’t

god takes a great interest in golf. remember if on the links and a thunderstorm breaks out, take out your 1 iron and hold it over your head, for even god cannot hit a 1 iron on the fairway.

God sees the little Titleist fall, it meets His tender view.

Amen Linus!

Lee Trevino joke, after he himself got hit by lightning…

“Next time I am caught in a thunderstorm while on the course, I’ll just raise a one-iron into the air. Because not even God can hit a one-iron.”

Linus, you’ll never understand His mysterious work.

There’s a story told of the Cotton Bowl where a minister was brought in at the last minute to offer a prayer for one of the teams, who concluded his appeal to the Lord with, “…and help us to remember that nothing of any importance will be decided here today.” He was not invited back.

You still have to thank “Him” anyway, just in case. Golfers, just like all sports players, are a superstitious lot.

I remember a cartoon from years ago with the caption “And it will take a miracle for the Cowboys to pull out this game,” and up above the hole in the roof a gigantic hand is diagramming a play.

Billy Graham played golf…

unless He’s Playing

Or a basketball game, or a football game, or…. God probably has less interest in sports results than I do.

God is definitely NOT a Chargers fan.

well, Linus – in the very large scheme of life with outcomes and results – may be God (remember to be God means that you and/or I can not know more than God or we would be God) does. If this person should win could it not result in a life being changed for the better. a charity being able to function, a lesson learned that life isn’t always fair or that winning isn’t everything for someone else? for me at least it is hard to imagine that God doesn’t care about everything that happens every single second of the day for everyone – BUT not, in the same way, you or I would ‘care’ (how could finite – you and/or I – ever figure out or even understand infinite – God)- but more in the really huge grand awesomely LARGE, scheme of everything ties into everything else eventually.

I really wish I could remember that old biblical golf joke now.

“Golf is a good walk spoiled.” – Mark Twain

God doesn’t play favorites.

Touche, Linus!
