The New York Jets quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, is one of the NFL’s Greats. He joined the Jets after representing the Green Bay Packers for 18 seasons. Rodgers won the NFL MVP Award four times and got his hands on the Super Bowl once. He joined the Pittsburgh Steelers on a one-year deal last month.
Rodgers never shies away from saying whatever comes to his mind. His statements have landed him in some controversies but the player hasn’t changed his way of living. Earlier this year, he gave two interviews about his faith in Christianity and god.
Aaron Rodgers’ Religion
Rodgers grew up in a Catholic family and was forced to attend religious activities by his parents. He visited the church frequently and joined their organization for youth, YoungLife, too. His beliefs continued to fade with time as religion left him confused.
As per his recent interviews, Aaron Rodgers believes that there is a greater power above everything, controlling and keeping everything together. However, the Super Bowl XLV champion doesn’t believe in any religion. He follows some spiritual ideas and practices, like meditation.
Rodgers’ Thoughts on God
Rodgers made an appearance on Danica Patrick’s podcast and commented on God’s existence. He criticized theists for believing in a god who wants to condemn most of the planet. He questioned God for wasting the planet on a fiery hell at the end.
The NFLPro Bowler had revealed that his parents relied on God to take them through their rough times. His family felt that Rodgers’ words were a slap on their face.
Aaron Rodgers: UFO disclosure will destroy religion
More and more people are starting to understand that “angels” and “demons” were just words used to describe positive and negative extraterrestrials. Some ETs were even called “God”.
