When anyone has success and attributes that success to their relationship with God, they will be despised by those who do not have the same experience. The perception is "what makes you better than me?' or "why does God favor you over me?".
I don't think Tim Tebow has created this perception intentionally...
From the Yahoo sports page on the Broncos loss. This is the comments that follow all internet news stories now.
God is not real, but Buddha is. Bless you Buddha!
Guess he didn't pray hard enough, huh?Really, why is it religious nuts like Tebow bow down and thank god when things go good, but don't blame god when things go bad??? Typical, ignorant religious hypocrisy. MERRY CHRISTMAS
God hates a Loser!
Silly,silly people, Tebow time hasnt started, he is still a work of athletic art in progress..God works in strange ways!
This clown above is laying the foudnation of atheism and doesn't even know it. Quit boasting in the flesh. My grace is sufficient for you.
Jesus was too busy with Christmas to play for the Bronco's today. Tebow had to depend on his own skills, which of course aren't very good. No Jesus playing in the last 2 minutes this time.
hey, just cause this guy prays and loves his lord does not mean he will be undefeatable or have heaven's grace on his side all the time. God tests us all the time. You guys are ridiculous to get down on him. Let him live his life. The people who talk crap about him are only angry because they are probably alcoholics, degenerates, or lame *****..jealous that their life sucks so much....get your own life and let him live his!!!!
godrulz?
The Lord giveth; The Lord taketh away!
If Tebow was a REAL Christian and not just a show off fake- he would give thanks to God no matter WHAT happens-- did he do his TeBow pray stance when intercepted????
Where is your god now. I am sure he prayed he would have a good game, and that his team would win. There is not god to pray to that is gonna help you win a game. How much more proof do people need that there is no invisible man in the sky.
Tebow knows that according to the bible ' All things work together for good for those who love the Lord and called according to his purpose". He will learn from these two losses and become a better player as a result...
Another airhead that thinks Jesus came to help you turn over a new leaf. Headed for destruction....Sadly, the sarcastic comment below is closer to the truth than those that boast and are now making excuses for the flesh. And I don't mean about his football play.
Gee Timmy.. guess jesus had other plans today and couldn't attend the game.. lol.. The best thing about this story is the comments.. It's hilarious to see the so called "christians" (I use quotation marks because you people are rediculous) who get so angry at people joking about what a joke tebow is. and lets be clear.. he's a joke.. to think any higher power, real or made up gives a crap about football..
