And I don't get the whole shaming statement. I was not shaming anyone. At least I was not trying to.
I do think peoples' obsession with him lacks logic. It probably speaks more to the failings of the people criticizing him than to Tebow himself.
If you're going to give your god credit for the good things, but not the bad things, you're inconsistent at best, a hypocrite at worst.
