    Tim Tebow has become a sensation while playing quarterback for the Denver Broncos and freely expressing his Christian faith, but what if he still did all of those things and was a Muslim. Would he be viewed differently?

    How would a Christian sports star be received in the M.E.?

    Not possible. Cheerleaders? Get outta here. Imagine cheerleaders in a burkha. That is an amusing picture.

    Oh really?

    They'd be fine with a famous Christian who made no effort to conceal his faith? You really think he'd be welcomed with open arms?

    They don't have any problem with Christians because they are VERY familiar with Jesus and his teachings.. They just object to proselytizing.

    What if Tebow were a Muslim? Liberals would stop criticizing Captain Jesus, as some have called him, for one thing.

    But we have had Muslim athletes (like Muhammad Ali and Mahmoud Abdul Rauf) who have freely and publicly expressed their Muslim faith and the sky did not fall and they were not silenced or shot.

    For one thing, if Tebow was a Muslim, trying to quarterback with a prayer blanket tucked in his belt surely would slow down his scrambling about like a headless chicken.

    I have never seen a Muslim with a prayer rug tucked in his belt and I have seen thousands of Muslims.

    But Tebow would have to..considering the circumstances...football-uniform-no pockets. So OK, maybe he could carry it in that hand warmer pouch...still, it would be somewhat bulky and could/would effect his maneuverability. (besides, I was joking...you liberal 'defenders of all things Muslim' have remarkably thin skin.)

    Would he be viewed differently?

    The loony left would be praising him to high heaven as an example of 'diversity' and he would even be given his own reality tv series:

    Instead Tebow is a White Christian heterosexual normal, so the loony left have to degrade him to the best of their ability as they are a hate-movement and want to bring Tebow down to their own level of sick debasement.

    The funny thing is..... you don't even realize your own hypocrisy as you spew your hate of liberals when they comment about the right wing's hate of muslims.

    Some crazy right wing group would get PISSED and demand advertisers pull their ads off the games. Then Tebow would get benched.

    Devout is a bit of a realtive term isnt it?

    How devout of a Muslim? Like fundamentalist? jihadist?

    And what a ridiculously ignorant statement it is to say "the right wings hate of Muslims".

    Then he would still be a bad QB who is only winning games because of his defense, he's playing against bad teams, the other team keeps choking, and they play prevent defense against him in the 4th quarter after shutting him down all game?

    Really you read Tebow as heterosexual? My gaydar beeps like crazy over that dude, and until he shows up with a supermodel knocked up ala Tom Brady, that dude is as straight as Troy Aikman.

    Hey - don't confuse the libs with reality. They have their bubble of non-sense to preserve and don't need you poking around with dangerously sharp objects such as facts.
