I will use one of my favorite celebrities as an example. Tim Tebow. He had a talent of being an athlete. He used that talent to do so much more than simply live a life that revolved around what football could get "him" (women, money, partying etc.) Instead he not only thanked God every chance he got, he used it as a way to evangelize to people.

God put a woman in his life that also has uses her gifts to help him. This is just one example. As to how you feel about vantexan, I'm not in any competition with him for being more Christian. He has knowledge of things that are more than I possess. Christ uses all types of people that do things in ways that are different. We are all humans and all have flaws.
