Submit Your Questions for ‘Elway Live’

December 12th, 2011 - 6:53pm by Gray Caldwell

UPDATED TUESDAY, DEC. 13 AT 9:45 A.M. MST: Due to a scheduling conflict, there will not be an Elway Live broadcast today.

Following Denver’s 13-10 overtime win Sunday, Executive Vice President of Football Operations John Elway will join Broncos TV’s Chris Hall for another ‘Elway Live’ show at 2 p.m. MST tomorrow — Tuesday — on DenverBroncos.com. Elway and Hall will breakdown the team’s victory over the Bears and plenty more on the live, online-streamed audio broadcast. The show is 30 minutes long and features fan-submitted questions for Elway.

Questions are currently being taken via Twitter and will continue to be taken during the show. To submit your questions, tweet using the hashtag #ElwayLive.

After the show, the broadcast will be archived to DenverBroncos.com and will also be available as a podcast through iTunes.

On 9NEWS KUSA-TV’s show Monday night, Elway addressed Bears running back Marion Barber stepping out of bounds to stop the clock late in the fourth quarter, and fumbling in overtime.

“You’ve got to have those kind of breaks,” Elway said. “When you’re on a run, a lot of times when things are going good, you’ve got to go ahead and enjoy it and make the plays that we’ve been able to make.”

Hear more of Elway’s thoughts on yesterday’s game as well as looking ahead to the Broncos’ Week 15 opponents, the New England Patriots, on ‘Elway Live’ on Tuesday.

    I did say that having strong faith (doesn’t matter in what) lends a certain resilience to the soul. But that is not the same thing.

  2. daddybronc says:

    It is common to hear the sincerity argument as well. I need something more real than what I can muster from inside of me.

  3. alexanserg says:

    And the sting of bad opening posts continues.

  4. daddybronc says:

    That’s a better first post!

  5. daddybronc says:

    Why is it not the same thing?

  6. alexanserg says:

    Certainly a lot better than the torture/genocide one. lol.

  7. alexanserg says:

    Because faith, feelings and belief are very different things.

    Feelings are whimsical. belief is hard to define, a faith requires neither.

    I might feel like having some chocolate ice cream. Do I need to explain how that is different that belief or faith.

    Then there is belief. I believe in evolution, but would it be fair to say I had faith in it? I wouldn’t espouse that belief it there was any possibility that harm would come as a result.

    And faith. That is something different entirely. That is where you intentionally block out feelings and belief because you have FAITH in something. You hold to it despite all evidence to the contrary and obstacles in the way.

  8. alexanserg says:

    sorry for the typos

  9. daddybronc says:

    I strongly disagree with the definition of faith.

  10. alexanserg says:

    What’s your definition of faith?

  11. daddybronc says:

    The prevalence of religious humanism has put that definition onto faith. Faith is what allows a person to move forward on something. It is a confidence that comes from experience. I can walk up and sit on a chair without wondering if it is going to drop me, because I have lot of experience with chairs. That is a better definition of Biblical faith.

    I told the Christians on here that I would not be holding Bible class on the blog and that they should not either. I don’t want to go back there.

  12. daddybronc says:

    I could not accept Creationism until I had spent much time answering evolutionary arguments in a manner satisfactory to me.

  13. alexanserg says:

    Dude, you are defining belief. I believe that when I sit on a chair I will not fall to the ground based on my past experience with chairs.

    That has nothing to do with faith in christ. What real-life, past experience have you had concerning Jesus Christ as your lord and savior, just for example.

    Has Jesus appeared to you mutliple times in the past? What past experiences to you have concerning that?

  14. daddybronc says:

    I should go after the evolution and harm comment but you and I are going to be in trouble with all those who read the whole conversation. LOL

  15. alexanserg says:

    What ‘answers’ did you come up with for evolution. I CAN’T WAIT to hear this.

  16. daddybronc says:

    Yes – belief and faith are exactly the same thing. The Bible uses the terms interchangeably.

    And as far as experience with Jesus. For me it is a long and glorious story that you are not going to get tonight.

    But…it starts with the evidence for a living Jesus. Simon Greenleaf was a lawyer who examined the evidence and the evidence led him to belief / faith. You can google it.

  17. alexanserg says:

    I love (i mean that sarcastically; in reality I hate) creationists explanation for race and language.

    According to science, we all evolved in Africa, and slowly developed different traits and languages over thousands of years after individual groups migrated to various areas of the earth with different environmental and cultural pressures.

    According to the bible it was because some folks tried to build a building that was too tall.

  18. alexanserg says:

    Belief and faith are almost polar opposites.

    If you belief in something you don’t need faith.

    And you can have faith in something that you don’t have any reason to believe in.

    To say they are the same thing removes all meaning from the word faith. Faith is like a bridge over something belief cannot cross.

    You have faith despite all odds. When you have no reason to belief, only faith is left.

    Faith steps in to fill the spaces doubt wants to fill.

    Belief and faith are polar opposites. If you have to believe, you will never have faith.

  19. daddybronc says:

    According to evolution and the title of Darwin’s book, the races are different stages of evolutionary process. This is a cause of racism and this was the justification Hitler used for the holocaust.

  20. alexanserg says:

    again, sorry for the typos.

  21. daddybronc says:

    I strongly defy that definition of faith. I refuse to have faith in the untestable – though I admit we all get their at some point due to finiteness.

  22. alexanserg says:

    There is a seed of truth to what you say. Of course the nazi’s chose to ignore the fact the the Jews were highly successful human beings, and they lost most of the olympic games to other types of people.

  23. alexanserg says:

    Dude, if it has to be testable then it isn’t faith. Pick up a dictionary, or something. Jeeze.

  24. daddybronc says:

    You can google Jonathan Safarti – has a great accent! He has the science degrees. I could regurgitate many studies but if you really want to know – Safarti can get you answers to the evolutionary questions.

  25. alexanserg says:

    From google:

    faith/fāTH/
    Noun:

    1. Complete trust or confidence in someone or something.
    2. Strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof.

  26. daddybronc says:

    I know – but faith is a Biblical term and as I said before – it is the same as belief. The redefinition of the term has been used to marginalize Christianity for many decades and now I battle this with Christians all the time.

    You want to read some technical stuff on the concept – read Francis Schaffer.

  27. alexanserg says:

    If you want to start talking about the bible specifically ,,,

    I leave you with Exodus 22:18.

  28. alexanserg says:

    Not good enough? How about 1 Timothy 2:12 ?

    1 Samuel 15:3 ?

    I’m a real bible thumper and the bible is an infallible source. So, Psalm 137:9 carries the wisdom of the lord.

    Right?

  29. daddybronc says:

    I know – and I have no problem with these types of verses in the Bible – because that verse has a historical and a cultural context.

    You think this is bad – read Hammurabi’s code from the same general time frame.

  30. alexanserg says:

    But how do I KNOW I should stone my neighbor to death if he works on the sabbath?

    Easy. It says so in the bible. Exodus 31:15

  31. daddybronc says:

    I recommend you don’t. LOL

  32. alexanserg says:

    You cite the bible as a source and in the same breath pass it off as mere historical context.

    Make up your mind man. Is it god’s word, or is it “historical and a cultural context?”

  33. alexanserg says:

    Surely god didn’t get it wrong it parts. If it is god’s word then surely it must all be wise.

    If parts of it are foolish, then surely it is not god’s word.

    Which is it?

  34. daddybronc says:

    You are assuming that the Bible was written to you and it wasn’t. It also wasn’t written to your status, your nation, or to your type of government.

    And – your understanding of right and wrong could be in error.

    I am falling asleep – we can pick up at a later time – take care.

  35. alexanserg says:

    If it is God’s word, surely you agree with 1 Peter 2:18.

  36. alexanserg says:

    Yeah. Good night.

  37. alexanserg says:

    Actually I am assuming it is a bunch of nonsense. But if you REALLY want to, we can pick this conversation up at a later time.

  38. daddybronc says:

    You think of slavery in the context of American racist slavery. Slavery like that existed throughout the Roman empire but the slavery that was practiced under God’s sanction looked a lot more like a job. Most of this type of slavery was voluntary.

  39. alexanserg says:

    Yeah. Go ahead and defend slavery in any form. You will probably win that argument. Sheesh.

  40. daddybronc says:

    Yes I think 1 Peter 2 :18 is a very practical and useful verse.

  41. daddybronc says:

    Not defending slavery – it is the concept of employer.

  42. alexanserg says:

    Yeah, back in ancient roman times it was not at all humiliating to allow your family to fall into slavery.

    It was the cat’s meow back then. :/

  43. alexanserg says:

    When a tribe of barbarians came through and slaughtered everyone you knew expect for a select few that they took for hard labor, that was a lot like getting a job offer.

  44. alexanserg says:

    Terms of the job … live in a hovel with no pride, doing hard work for a subsistence living. If you don’t work or try to leave you face a beating or worse.

    That is almost identical to being a barista a starbucks.

  45. daddybronc says:

    Study it – you may be surprised. In fact – it was the solution to precisely the problem you have gotten yourself into. A man in debt would approach someone with resources – much the same as a job interview. The master pays off the debt. Houses and protects the ‘employee’ and his family. And the best thing was that every 7 years all slaves went free. Many volunteered not the do so and that would step up the service to the level of bondslave. But even this was voluntary.

  46. alexanserg says:

    yeah, if only we still lived in a society where my debtors could foreclose upon my free will.

    That would be a vast improvement.

  47. alexanserg says:

    What you are describing isn’t anything like slavery. You are describing something closer to apprenticeship.

  48. daddybronc says:

    You are talking about a time without the mechanical – electrical slaves that you have now. This type of household help was a cultural necessity.

  49. alexanserg says:

    No I am talking about the last 10’000 years where the losers of war have been subjugated to the will of others.

    Where do you think all that nice marble in ancient greece came from? http://www.greeka.com/cyclades/paros/paros-excursions/marathi-quarries.htm

  50. daddybronc says:

    that is not what 1 Peter referred to
