My ideal person of faith is a pluralist, one who accepts the legitimacy of my faith. Tebow does not. I do not find that admirable.
Looks like someone is still having trouble accepting Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

On another note, I look up to anyone that makes liberals upset, especially when their poor feelings are hurt, by Truth.

I'm sure the haters don't bother him because it is something he would have expected as part of his faith. Too bad he's not allowed to do bible quotes under his eyes anymore. I could think of a few he could use:

John 3:1

John 3:13

John 7:7

John 15:18

Proverbs 29:27

Matthew 10:22

I don’t remember the great Reggie White receiving such criticism about his Christianity.
You're silly, that would be racist!

>_>

No surprise here

2 Tim 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

The real challenge is that so few Christians will take actions that lead to persecution, let alone endure it.

May Tim Tebow's example challenge multitudes of Christians!

I first thought that his piece was a clumsy attempt at over-the-top humor - “mosque-burning” linked to “Hee-Haw”.

I was saddened when I realized that it wasn’t. This is a sincere fool.

How embarrassing it must be to be related to him.

I just checked the NFL schedule. Neither Green Bay or Denver are scheduled to play each other. Schedule though only goes to January 1. 2012

No, it just shows that it has been there all along hiding in the shadows. Tebow just provided an easy outlet for it to rear its head thinking that the PC environment was safe enough for it to do so.

Agreed. Unless the fudge-Packers self-destruct, no one will beat them....and BTW, I got no hate for Rogers, the 2nd best QB in the league.... ================

It’s not just that Hammerman is someone who believes in dumb liberal policies. But he’s so dumb that he actually thinks that if Tebow helps win the Superbowl for the Broncos, that will be taken as the ultimate proof of Christianity and will result in scores of new converts.

Of course, only super intellects such as Hammerman will be able to resist such temptations and crises of faith.

Judaism RIP 2011. We outlived the Assyrians, Egyptians, Babylonians, Romans and the Nazis but we just couldn’t handle the trauma of losing to the Broncos.

Thanks for posting!

An ancient book's words come to mind: ". . . every knee shall bow. . . ," and, "Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth."

Stages throughout the world are places where young "stars" use all sorts of postures and gestures before, during, and after their working performances, raising no public outrage or castigation.

Why, then, such resentment and outrage about an American young man's kneeling on his chosen work "stage"?

He simply follows a tradition of his noble forefathers, men who loved liberty more than life, and risked all to secure its "Blessings" more than 200 years ago.

“…it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor….” (George Washington)

“Now the virtue which had been infused into the Constitution…and was to give it…the stability and duration to which it was destined, was no other than…those abstract principles…proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence—namely, the self-evident truths of the…unalienable rights of man…the…sovereignty of the people, always subordinate to a rule of right and wrong, and always responsible to the Supreme Ruler of the universe for the rightful exercise of that sovereign…power.” (John Quincy Adams, on the occasion of The Jubilee of the Constitution - 1839)

Brees is good but he ain’t no Rogers. I wonder what his stats would be like if his receivers hung onto the ball.

Well, I don’t know what kind of fantasy you’re trying to spin, cuz’ according to Mike Vick fans, every team he’s ever played on has led the league in drops :).
BTW, Rogers is having a slightly better year, but only cuz’ the fudge-Packers are teachers pets (heh-heh) and the refs are gonna do everything in their power to help your guys to a perfect season!

It always astonishes me to see how liberal Jews are more terrified of Evangelical Christians than they are of Muslim radicals who actually want to kill them.

Finger on point bump. This Liberaltown rebbi, who would be transported with joy to find himself suddenly walking the streets of Ithaca, City of Evil, home of Cornell University, has no idea that the "thumb-suckers" and "mouth-breathers" down at the local Baptist church are the best friends he has in America. And he explicitly, firmly, and contemptuously rejects them.

What a bigoted position! At least it exposes what he is really like.

I am a Judeophile and a Catholic and it makes me crazy when I see stuff like this. This nonsense feeds directly into generating hatred between Christians and Jews.

I have also noticed that the most virulent Tebow-haters on sports radio in my town are coincidentally all Jewish. They are obnoxiously persistent about it, focusing on the guy's game and calling him a talentless hack. But i can't help but wonder if their inability to stomach Tebow's overt Christianity is really the source of their venom.

Are you saying the nfl is like the wwe (only Vince McMahon is upfront about saying that “professional” wrestling is nothing but entertainment)? I seem to remember two(2) totally ridiculous calls against the Viqueens that helped the “aint’s get into the Stupor Bowl.
