So what's wrong with this, other than the venue?

[El Supremo]

And I don't even care about that. We do have freedom of speech here, right?



"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."

1. No big deal, El.

Except it's exactly what's wrong with this country. Just absolute pure bullshit. Motherfucking religious fucks are turning this country into a joke. Oh, wait. It's been going on for a coupla' centuries. Praise Jesus! Fuck off.

2. Meh....

I would not have much of a problem with this sort of thing, if Tebow preached a Chrisitianity that bore something more than a faint resemblance to what I learned in Sunday school.

3. The University of Florida is supported by state and federal taxpayer dollars

And we have a separation of church and state in this country. Not to mention, those aren't part of the uniform.

When a Michigan player wrote JESUS in huge letters on the tape on his upper arms I complained to the AD, using this very argument, and I got a nice response; he agreed with me, referred my e-mail to the coach, and that was never seen again -- on that or any other state.

I'm not anti-religion, in fact I'm a churchgoer myself, but I strongly support the separation of church and state.

10. Great post gobluedem

We all have the freedom to be idiots. Even Teblow.

4. Lol. And if they said

There is no God would that be acceptable? You know it would not. Freedom of speech , so long as you believe correctly.

9. Right ---

So another player can put Alhamdulillah under his eyeballs as well...

Then again---Christian heads would explode...

6. I'm all for freedom of speech. He can put that on his face and I can call him a douchebag. Fair deal

7. I'm With You Cap'n

And, i have the right to say that i don't believe he really believes all that stuff. I think he's a complete fraud.

Like you said, i've the freedom of speech to say that as well.

What goes around. . .

8. Doesn't bother me

But I'd love to see what the folks who eat this up would say to a Muslim player doing something similar... bet we'd see a lot less support for free speech and freedom of religion then!

11. +100 True dat!

[caraher]

12. anyway, it could be a lot worse
