4. Because of his religion. Imagine an athlete who didn't believe in God, and during interviews, photoshoots, endzone celebrations, he went out of his way to show everyone that he's an atheist. "I guess I just gotta give all the credit to myself again," he'd say, "We all know God doesn't exist, so I guess today was just another testament to how f***ing great I am." Imagine how completely insufferable that would be. And then to have people say we can't talk about that athlete's atheism?
If you think that his faith and beliefs is just a personal thing for Tebow, grounded in humility, you must have forgotten his anti-abortion commercial that aired during the Super Bowl two years ago. To paraphrase the ad's logic: "Tim Tebow wasn't aborted, and he turned into a superstar, so why should anyone get abortions?" About as sophisticated an argument as the atheist who promises that God can't possibly exist, because otherwise why were there no dinosaurs in the bible?
I've believed in God my whole life, I'm a Christian, and I hate all this grandstanding because all it does is turn faith into a caricature. Tebow makes religion look more desperate and superficial than any atheist ever has.
