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.

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.
