For sure sports themselves have sponsors,and so if taking photos or videos of sports and sportsmen, any logos they are wearing will be in the picture. But to suggest that the BBC go out of their way to include such sponsorship, let alone ads, is the very opposite of the truth.
Take for example Snooker, which has always been heavily sponsored. The snooker page (as server in the UK) has no sign of any sponsors or ads, other than in a single photo where the logo is incidentally to be seen on the referee's jacket. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/other_sports/snooker/default.stm
I'm not going to do an exhaustive list of dumb things christians believe. I tell you what, if you think there's a particular christian sect that doesn't have anything ludicrous in their set of beliefs, name it, and I'll point some out.
The choice of bright yellow as a theme is awful. On the plus side, it's one of the few actively maintained sites that doesn't have advertising. So it's got that on it's side.
I'm no expert, but isn't the idea that everyone can go to heaven at the very core of Christian belief
According to the Catholic schooling I had, only those with a Catholic baptism qualified. The rest of you don't get in. Even the little babies that die before their Catholic parents get them in front of a priest and a font are not welcome.
Never trust ANYONE who wears a suit and tie. Especially if the guy in the suit claims to be a Christian; the tie is Satan's leash, the symbol of wealth and power, the symbol of greed, the symbol of everything Jesus was against. If your preacher wears a tie, you're in the wrong church (unless you worship money, in which case you're fine).
That's a particularly American perspective. Worldwide, the biggest religious villains I can think of are Osama Bin Ladin, the various Ayatollahs and Mullahs that kill for sharia law transgressions and the various Popes. None of which wear ties. I guess it's because business is something that's worshipped in the US, and so the ones who get their power fix through religion have adopted the business suit as their costume.
As pointed out on the Daily Show last week, the Mafia embody the purest form of capitalism. Laissez fucking faire. And RICO is just over-regulation of business.
Ah, OK I didn't look at the posting history. Yeah, bonch is doing nobody any favours. His views are basically right, but he's he's behaving like a spammer or a shill.

What utter trollish shit.

Apparently it's just the UK where there are no ads.

They run advertising for users outside of the UK. Users in the UK don't see any advertising.
OK, that makes sense. Good for us Brits then.
Which is why it isn't either, regardless of what Christianity says.
What christianity says is bullshit? Hold the front page!
I see it's still a novelty for Americans for satire to reveal some of the bigger truths.

"ritualistically eat one of their gods." Catholicism there, it doesn't apply to protestant christianity.
Every cut has it's own peculiar set of ridiculous beliefs. For example the belief in the literal truth of everything in the bible.

As if only being symbolic human meat and human blood, which is really bread and wine, makes it not weird.
Paul of Tarsus invented christianity, so I guess whatever he said is the gold standard.

I'm not a google employee, but I'd be curious to know what made you think I was.
I took you at your word. That may have been a mistake.

Hopefully you got a chuckle. I only use that line when pointing out that someone tried to correct someone else and got it wrong.
Apparently not only then...

Stopped reading right there. What an ignorant fucker you are.
Given you're a Google employee, we can treat that comment with the scepticism it deserves.

Your friendly neighborhood grammar nazi.
I do hope that was intended to be funny. Hard to tell round these parts.
some people in life are creators, some are mere followers.
And in general, more creators use Macs than any other platform. Musicians, film-makers, writers,actors artists, photographers etc, etc..
And the games are better on a $200 console than either of those.
And he made Android window lickers froth at at mouth.
