NOW Will They Leave Tebow (And His Faith) Alone?

NOW will they leave Tim Tebow alone?
Now that he's pulled off yet another incredible come-from-behind victory?
Now will they begin to realize that he's a well-grounded young man who has his priorities in order?
I'm not so sure. We live in such a cynical world -- so jaded and jaundiced.
For the life of me I cannot understand why some sportscasters (and even some NFL players) insist on mocking this fresh, young, stellar quarterback .Why do they seem to deride him for his faith and Christian beliefs? Are they envious? Angry? Anxious? Or just plain scared.
Has it gotten so bad that someone who believes in God and who has accepted Christ as his savior is now some kind of outcast? Is this what we've come to?
Are those who believe in God, home, family and some sense of morality now considered part of a radical minority?
Well, give credit to Tebow. He appears to be absolutely unshakable in his beliefs. He trusts in a loving God and he's fared quite well doing so, thank you. They said he'd never make it in the NFL but he's not only proving them wrong, he's actually exceeding all expectations.
Strong. Steady. Determined. Focused and firmly rooted in his deep and abiding faith, Tim Tebow is an inspiration. Go, Tim, go!
