    I happen to be a student of the Patristics -- Origen being one of them.

    Given Tim's cerebral nature, tt would not surprise me if, indeed, he were a student of the writings of Augustine, Origen, Irenaeus, et al. That is, of course, if he were a Christian. On the other hand, I've never met a single cultist (Branch Davidian, Jehovah's Witness, Christian Scientist) who ever read much, or knew much, about the early church and its teachers. So part of your statement must be false.
    Tim also dabbles in bracketology.

    Origen was a great man.

    Not so Augustine and Irenaeus, I detest Augustine and Irenaeus, who were spewers of hate. Origen spewed love.

    Augustine couldn't even read ancient Greek, he was such a dumbass. He had to read everything in translation so nothing he says can be trusted.

    Duncan is a Satan Worshipper. He gave his soul to the Devil. That's where he gets his freakish post moves.

    I'm keeping it a secret with his son's name.

    I think it's the only 2 things I don't know about him.
    Do you know his phone number, address, and home alarm security password?

    Do you want to?

    Yikes! What was he thinking?

    Did his wife drag him in? Was he raised a JW? Or did he not do too much research?
    what religious person actually thinks?

    If you watch the 2005 Championship Dvd- the special part " Tim Duncan goes home" it shows the church Tim attended as a child.
    Also Tim talks about how God leads you in life.

    Edit:

    Just re- watched the special and it does not show Timmy's church. I must be thinking of another special because I also remember seeing a part about some restaurant Timmy used to frequent as a kid.
    But Timmy does say in the above special that God has lead him and he is blessed.

    The most boring one I can think of is Budhism so that must be it.

    Given Tim's quiet and cerebral nature, and that he seems to appreciate art and philosophy, I could see him in an Episcopal or Catholic setting. Maybe Presbyterian. They do a better job of incorporating beauty and mystery in their worship and theology.

    Speaking as a Baptist, I freely admit that we are, um, often aesthetically challenged. So I don't see him in a Baptist or American evangelical church.

    Some people may believe there is a higher being, but simply choose not to follow closer than that.

    I definitely see Tim as one of those guys.

    Just a question.. is there any point in a game where Duncan points his fingers up above as if to thank the one?
    I don't know why I didn't post a pic of him doing this when the thread was going on, but here's one from the '05 Championship.

    obviously not a Christian then.

    - Mars
    I wouldn't assume that. David Robinson (and AJ) are a very specific brand of Christianity - they're both born again, Pentecostal Christians. Tim could very well be a Catholic, a Methodist, a Lutheran, a Congregationalist...etc, etc.

    Personally, I wouldn't be suprised if he were a Unitarian or a Buddhist. Just a hunch from what I know about his beliefs and at udes.
