Tim Tebow and the courage of conviction
This article originally appeared in The Christian Science Monitor.
Less than a minute into his first response, Mr. Tebow invokes his now-familiar refrain: “I just want to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
For the reporters, and surely much of the audience, it is an awkward moment. Much of America is still not sure what it thinks about public displays of religious affection, but its views of Tebow are much less ambiguous. “Enough already!” might be among the most charitable reactions to Tebow’s apparent refusal to discuss even the weather without thanking Jesus Christ.
