Man, wonder how shocked people are going to be when some crazy guy kills or maims him for being a false prophet...

I think the "God working through Tebow" thing is bullshit, honestly. I can't say that it is impossible, there are certainly things out there that I just don't understand, but I don't think it's true. I tend to think that if there is a God that He works more in a Deist sense.

That being said, faith is real. I have seen it in my daily life. My young children have "faith" in me to act in their best interests because they know that I love them unconditionally. My wife, who is going through an extremely difficult time in her life right now, has "faith" in me to make decisions for her when she can't. Because she knows that I love her and always will. My boss and my coworkers have "faith" in me to get the job done. They rely on me. They expect me to do my job at a high level of competency because they know that my work ethic, in part, defines who I am.

Right now the Broncos players have "faith" in Tim Tebow. The religious ones see the power of Christ in his daily life. They share a belief system and they know he is committed to it. The non religious ones respect Tebow's beliefs because they know that Tebow's religious views, in part, define who he is. It's not fake. That's who he really is.

So...no. I don't see God working through Tebow. I see the power of the human spirit and it is an awesome thing.

You know what's funny, I was thinking Tebow would be perfect for the Anti Christ role. He could sell the hatred of fundamentalism very easily.

Tebow hate amazes me. Good kid, polite, gifted athlete, wins games, and has strong belief in his religion. Whats wrong with any of that?

Absolutely nothing. I don't share his beliefs but I admire the kid.

Because obsessing over him ignores all the other athletes with just as much character.

If a guy like Tamba Hali played QB, people would love him just as much as they love Tebow.

It's just a Spring clean from the May Queen.

More so it relates to the hype. Sure he is winning games but I don't see him sustaining this and I don't see the Broncos winning meaningful playoff games or SBs with him under center.

So, if the hype dies down, he starts not winning, people will be Tebow supporters? Bullshit. The guy is exceeding all expectations and is squeaky clean and that somehow makes people not like him. People generally suck and this is a good case study.

Uhhh, he's a Bronco QB that's winning games and you're reading about him on a Chiefs website during another sh*tty Chiefs season. That could have something to do with it, at least on here...

Definitely not but is your hate ever stronger for someone not in the limelight?

No...and he wouldn't get talked about as much.

Shocking but many also don't agree with some of the extreme views he shares.

Frailty II, starring Tim Tebow.

If he was Muslim and praising Allah, he would be villianized by the same people that admire him for "standing up for what he believes in".
