I brought up the Tim Tebow thing because though I’ve seen some Christian mock Tim’s public display of faith (which I don’t really have a problem with, unless he was trivializing it), I think they may have been mistaken for thinking that Tim is advocating that God is on the side of the Denver Bronco’s or one team or another. I think this has been pointed out thoroughly on this board especially when D spoke of thanking Jesus for not getting in an accident when pulling out of a parking spot at Wal Mart. We just can’t know if it was God or just good luck.
Anyhoo…from my understanding, Tim’s ritual of “Tebowing” is meant to be more in the vein of, “Thank you for giving me the ability” type of thing. The problem is that he seems to do it every time there is a touchdown which would seem to give the impression that God in fact did have something to do with his touchdown.
