Tim Tebow is called a "Christian Taliban" by an atheist, comparing Southern Baptists to Muslim fundamentalists. Link to Mindposts article here
Excerpt: "Superstar NFL quarterback Tim Tebow looks like an All-American guy, but he has more in common with the Taliban than with our Founding Fathers.
The press has given Tim an open mic to opine on abortion, virtue, and piety. When will reporters ask Tim to share his views on gay marriage, the subservience of women, the power of the devil, where the dinosaurs too big for the Ark, or the age of the planet?
His overt Christianity has resounded with the American public, most of whom claim to be Christian. The truth is that Tim Tebows medieval, fundamentalist, demon fearing, tongues speaking, Christ riding a dinosaur, beliefs are the antithesis of what most Americans believe. In fact, Tim Tebow thinks YOU (and most Americans) are going to Hell."
I think it’s funny when atheists talk about America having a “Christian taliban”, seemingly not realizing that if there truly was one, they would be stoned to death long before they could ever publically spout such nonsense.
At the risk of contradicting myself, Why do we elevate these atheists to be worthy of note and comment?
Leave them in the weeds.
It sounds and smells like the atheist is lugging a load in his Huggies. Like someone said here yesterday, “Without God, there wouldn’t be any atheists.”

And the atheists will be the first against the wall when Sharia comes.
This guy is missing the boat entirely. The fact is, this is political, not religious. If Tebow were black, no one would say a thing about it. Black athletes thank God and praise Jesus all the time. But everyone knows they are probably Democrats... so no one says a word.
Tom Brady, after living a full life, passes away. He goes to heaven and meets God. God takes Tom over to a nice, modest little house. A faded New England Patriots flag hangs in the window. Tom, this will be your home for all eternity, God tells him. At first Tom is humbled that God would give him his own home in heaven. But then Tom looks across the way and sees a beautiful, shining mansion. A large Tim Tebow jersey hangs on the front door. The place has a huge swimming pool in the shape of a bronco. Crisp, new Denver Bronco flags hand in every window. Taken a little aback, Tom Brady says to God God, I thank you for my house. But I am an all-pro quarterback, I won 3 super bowls victories and I have broken many records. Why does Tim Tebow get a much bigger house than me? God looks at Tom and laughs, Tom, thats not Tim Tebows house. Thats mine!.
Tebow doesnt need defending. Like Palin. The left Hates them because their presence amplifies their darkness... If everyone is condemnable then no one can judge you. Not that Tebow or Palin would, but they are the nail that sticks up and must be pounded in.
A pic from another article he's written:
I think atheist is a misnomer. These people are antitheists. If given power, I have no doubt they would engage in actions equivalent to Mao’s Great Leap forward. Deadlier and more efficient than Taliban.
What the Atheists fail to realize that the yoke of Islam when it comes is going to show them no mercy. Christians at least acknowledge that people have liberty to decide for themselves peacefully. Islam affords no such right.
I don't know why the author is bitching... He doesn't have to go. There is another option.....
You are right that if Tebow were black his praise of God wouldn’t bother so many people. Even if he merely said “Thanks God”, rather than Jesus, I think it would be less of a big deal. The name Jesus Christ is what seems to upset people the most.
Were he praising Allah instead of Jesus, he would be celebrated by the media and the left.
Another thing about Tebow that I think bothers the left is that he is seemingly without vice. There are not stories of him sleeping around, drinking, drugging, living the approved alternative lifestyle.
Imagine how big a folk hero he would be were he gay.
Instead, he is polite, humble, and literally builds hospitals in poor countries when he is not playing football.
Aren’t liberals in favor of building hospitals?
Tim Tebow can believe anything he wants about “abortion, virtue, and piety,” “the power of the devil, where (sic) the dinosaurs too big for the Ark, or the age of the planet,” or for that matter, where I’m going when I die. As long as he isn’t trying to force me to agree with him, or to harm me for disagreeing, he has exactly nothing in common with the taliban. This is really so obvious that it shouldn’t be in question at all.
As for “Christian taliban” - remember all those Christians flying planes into buildings because of their religion? Oh... never mind.
Hilarious, are you writing this from a mental ward?
Even idiots and assclowns want to share in Tim Tebows limelight!
Having buried several US soldiers killed by the “Taliban”
I would suggest that this person is a friggin moron.........
