Line 32: − − ==Liberal opposition to Tebow== − − [[Liberal]]s in the sports industry have been long opposed to Tim Tebow because they do not want the spread of Christianity in the NFL. He has been subjected to harassment and criticism for his outward expression of his faith in Christ. Liberals use the accusation, with no basis, that he is a sub-par player as a shield for the fact that they are afraid of the negative reaction of the lame-stream media, which they fear will result in negative publicity and loss of sponsorship for the NFL. Their blinkered philosophy cannot understand that embracing Tebow and his message would lift the NFL out of its current doldrums.

On April 29, 2013, after the draft weekend, the unsuccessful Jets waived their rights to Tebow. On June 10, 2013, Tebow signed a contract with the [[New England Patriots]], but the Patriots released him before the start of the season after barely giving him a chance. The Patriots may have been using Tebow as a public relations gimmick to deflect bad publicity about the team. In 2015, Tebow signed with the Philadelphia Eagles after two full seasons out of the league but was released after the team's final preseason game.

And when you pray, don't be like the hypocrites. They love to pray when standing in the synagogues and in the street corners, so that they may be seen by men.

But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.
