The militant secularists are judgmental and intolerant beyond belief. They're guilty of the very self-richeousness they accuse Christians of and their endless carping has turned the American public against them.

The “progressive” commie libs only bash Christians because bashing Muzzies is a “hate crime” in Barry’s Amerika.

I guess they won’t be so high and mighty at the Great White Judgement Throne of God.

Thanks for posting this article.
The anti-Christians have given a lot of exposure to Tebow’s humble Christianity.

Just more of the frequent hate and bigotry from the left.

God does not take sides in football games, Tebow's critics say.

Maybe not, but in life He takes the side of His flock, and the smirkers have just put themselves on the opposite side. Go Tebow!

I'm no fan of Denver, but if the Niners can't win it, I hope Tebow pulls out a Super Bowl win on a Hail Mary and this football brouhaha smacks the secularists upside the head in 2012.

If these Tebow haters weren’t so blind and stupid, they would know that after EVERY NFL GAME, a certain percentage of players from both teams meet at midfield or the end zone and join hands in prayer to thank God. The networks don’t show it, of course.

I’m not particularly a Denver fan....but I’ve become a huge fan of this young man, Tebow. As an evangelical Christian, I respect his devotion to his faith and his unwavering courage under withering fire from critics from all sides. He responds with a kindness and compassion I cannot understand....since, despite my Christian faith (I’m very much a work in progress), I’d tell ‘em all to kiss my a**.

He doesn’t. He just smiles, says nice things about them, continues to kick butt on the field, and gives ALL praise and credit to the Father and His Son. I love that. So does, it seems....America.

Denver winning the Super Bowl....that is what I’d now love to see more than anything.

I think it unlikely in the extreme that God cares about whether the Broncos win or lose. I am certain though that God deeply loves and cares for the players and spectators, which is what Tim Tebow acknowledges by kneeling in humble thanks for his accomplishments.

What is hard for the media when it comes to understanding that Tebow is simply thanking God for the talent God has given?

I’ve heard of 3 year old geniuses and prodigies....is that because they worked hard, studied hard, and perseverence won out in the end?

Hardly.

Some are gifted in certain areas, and the giftedness is there already, and it provides a foundation on which they can build through hard work. Their efforts then seem awesome, even superhuman, to the rest of us.

One of my all time favorite movies was “Chariots of Fire” in which olympic runner, Eric Liddell, an awesome distance runner in his era, and also a Christian, said “when I run I feel His pleasure.”

Giftedness is a circle that is complete when the gifted one gives thanks to the Creator for the gift received.

Tebowing should be pronounced by Christians in the same way as “bowing before God”. It is Te-bowing. 316 316 316

Perhaps Tebow’s acknowledging God for his gift is a message to us from God about the wonderful gift of freedom in a free land that we’ve been given. It would then be a message that we would be best served by thanking God for that gift.

I think it's disgusting that sports commentators are ridiculing Tebow!

Not only were there 316 passing yards, but the Denver time of possession was 31 minutes 6 seconds.

I missed where these classless gutter dwellers mockingly got on their knees and stuck their butts in the air to debase Allah. The bigoted cowards know they would get their butts kicked.
