How much does God love Tim Tebow? More than He loves you, obviously.

I have no business questioning his loyalty to the so-called savior, so I will not and do not. What I do have business questioning, as a human being, is his awful behavior in participating in the subjugating of native cultures that need food, medicine and sanitation, not genital mutilation and preaching. And as a life-long Gator fan I also have business questioning the unfair and overshadowing effect the sadly populous in-your-face proselytizing has on the other equally important members of the Gator squad. But unfortunately stories about hard work and good brains don't sell to a nation where almost 50% take prideful and willful ignorance in established scientific systems such as evolution. That is what's truly pathetic.

JK, you are so jealous of Tebow it is pitiful! What business is it of yours to question his loyalty to his Saviour? Man, you are pathetic, to say the least!

Thank you for the calm and reasoned response, it is a credit to the love and humility espoused by your faith.

JK - you sound like a perfect fit for a teaching job at a liberal anti-truth, godless, earth worshiping indoctrination center known as a public university. Oh, wait a minute, aren't you intellectual types supposed to be the most tolerant of us all? That's right, I stand corrected, you're tolerant and all about the Constitution protecting your rights to espouse your demonized diatribe, but when the message gets under your reptilian skin, then all bets are off. Typical brainwashed byproduct of secular humanistic and godless public education indoctrination.

Life long Gator fan here. Grew up in Gainesville, got a couple degrees at UF, and would love to come back and teach there someday. But I agree with your post completely. The constant proselytizing both from and by Tim Tebow is unbearable. It has overshadowed arguably the more important player on our team, Percy Harvin, as well as other key players such as Brandons James and Spikes, Chris Rainey, Jeff Demps, Louis Murphy, and Eric Hernandez just to name a few. When did football become a one-man sport?

And outside of sports, I find Tebow's missionary work reprehensible. Not only because of the occasional odd story like the genital mutilation you mentioned, but missonary work in general is destroying countless unique native cultures. Aide work is one thing, dangling medicine in return for conversion is not.
