No it’s not. You have a burr under your saddle toward God perhaps, to twist the facts to fit a mean-spirited perspective. When I go to bed at night, I open my prayers with ‘Thank you, Lord, for yet another day.’ That in no way affirms anything about your day or your blessings, your failures or your victories. When I won the club championship in Golf years ago, I thanked God for the victory because it was the abilities He blessed me with that allowed me to win, not anything He could be accused of ding to put me in the winner’s circle. Why are you so negative about thanking God for the talents He graces someone with? I would enjoy fishing for catfish with you, but if you catch more fish and bigger fish, do you really think I would be angry that God did not let me catch the bigger fish? THAT is what you imply with this silly negativism.

No, I have a burr under my saddle about people that like to wear their faith on their sleeve for everyone to see. Faith is a personal endeavor,you don't share it like a bottle of wine, it is unique to the faith holder, as no one thinks exactly like you do.
