Does the Bible say anything about doing adventure sports?

I think I had my real image up for a short amount of time, but realised I could do with some photo editing, maybe others arrived at the same conclusion

Don't be a jealous cat.

So kind of you to assume.

Should I demand an apology like some do.

I know that it says in the Bible that we are His temple. I understand that you should take care of yourself and eat healthy and such. But does the Bible say anything about doing adventure sports, like parachuting, climbing and snowboarding off-piste and such?
My foster mother, who is not a Christian, asked if it is ok for me to do that now that I am a Christian. I haven't thought about it before. I love those kinds of sports and wouldn't want to stop doing it. It helps me to become calm and be able to concentrate on other things when I need it

Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

They can be a bit dangerous I guess, to me safer than a horse . Wife wanted to get a bike, Im like nah! You need a higher amount of rush junkie in yah to ride safe.

Why should I even apologize to you? Just because you think her pictures are fake, you can be rude to her? I know someone else here who posted a picture of themselves using AI enhancement and she does not have any sinister intent. Should we be rude to her too?

Until someone shows ill-intent, we should show Christian love. I haven't even seen you say anything kind to ImLova - just snark about her. If anything, YOU should be apologizing to her.

I don't think off-piste snow-boarders & skiers prophesy that angels will catch them. I think they utilize their current skill levels.

That was certainly not the point. Taking UNNECESSARY RISKS was the point, and don't tell me that those activities do not involve such risks.

A risk that one person deems 'unnecessary', another person deems 'necessary' in order to get the desired results; in this case, adventure. People are different.

And a 13 year old (or thereabouts) is able to make those judgements?
You have children?

Thank you for honoring my country! But why are you talking about Switzerland? She is from Sweden! It's a widespread cliché in Europe that Americans always confuse Sweden and Switzerland. But why? There are more than 1000 Km between those countries. Sweden is big, even bigger than California. Switzerland is small (Between MD and WV).

Besides that, Strudel and Schnitzel are typical German or Austrian dishes, not Swiss or Swedish. (But of course, Schnitzel is also common here.)

bu a horse doesn't drive--hmm, how fast did ther say?-- since most people want 250ccs, thats average 85 mph.

Since you want to keep arguing about this, let's get down to the SPIRITUAL aspect of taking unnecessary risks.

1. Why did Satan challenge Christ to jump off the high pinnacle? To prove that He is the Son of God, which would be the pride of life. This would satisfy Christ's ego (or so thought Satan). And Satan uses the three lusts -- the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life for people to sin.

2. So how does the pride of life apply to "daredevil" sports people? Firstly they want to show themselves and they world that they are "immortal". Secondly they want to prove to their peers that they fear nothing, not even the highest risks. Thirdly they want to satisfy their own egos: "Look at what I accomplished today. I must be very special".

3. Now all this is rank carnality -- pleasing the "flesh" rather than pleasing God. And Christ would have nothing to do with this for Himself, and He certainly does not approve of it for Christians.

4. So do you want an example of a safe and beneficial sport? How about regular exercise with weights and exercise equipment? When you follow the rules, you are always safe. Not only is this good for your health, but it also builds up your muscles and muscle tone. It also requires mental disciple to do this regularly. So you accomplish many things which are beneficial rather than looking for cheap thrills to satisfy your ego.

Basketball and soccer are up near the top with injuries to people, but don't do lawn bowls, the fatality rate is about the highest, yet its seems rather under recorded there's a conspiracy here somewhere.

Since I did not mention these (and they are to be played by the rules), why bring them up? And where did you get your information? Is it even reliable?

Here's what I am talking about -- thrills that can lead to serious injury or death. All for nothing.

Kids (boys and girls) under 10 are now racing moto x, so rightly or wrongly I thinks its endorsed by the parents.

So kind of you to assume.

Should I demand an apology like some do.
