The relationship between pig soccer and a life of faith

In the summer of 2005, a "svinoball" game, also known as pig soccer, was held in the suburbs of Moscow, Russia. The ten pigs—five on each team—obviously would not have had any knowledge of soccer, so they would not have had the idea or desire to win by kicking the ball in a certain direction toward the opposite team’s net. The pigs, nonetheless, played “soccer,” and the game is now being held annually ........

The pigs simply work hard to get something to eat, but unexpectedly, their actions result in a soccer game. It’s funny enough just imagining it. But if someone were to tell you a similar phenomenon is occurring in the church, would you believe them?
