Conversely, Al-Tebow would be slagged into a puddle of "He's an Anti-American" ridicule and scorn here.

Asinine comparison. When Christian fundamentalist start slamming airliners in to buildings in Manhattan, then you can make your stupid moral equivalence.

Asinine? It's spot on. The comparison regards the public expressions of one's faith. This site is filled to overflowing with "my sect/denomination is better than yours." Islam, Buddhism? OMG!!! To speak nothing of the slagging that Mormonism gets.

There’s a lot of dueling evangelism on this site between Catholics and Protestants - all the daily devotionals competing with the papal pronouncements and so forth. How all that fits into “breaking news” or “current events” escapes me, but the mods allow it so I guess they consider it within the scope of the site. I personally think that those sorts of theological screeds should be on a “religion” thread unless they actually constitute major news, e.g., the pope endorses Obama or some such thing.
