Someone writes a book and that makes them genuine? Really, the fact that he wrote a book after a single season in the NFL shows that he is game to capitalize on his popularity. That speaks for his intentions quite a bit.

I've had the same thoughts myself. I think he's a show-off and not in a good way. However, I do think Tebow is genuine in his faith.
On the main topic- I think Tebow sets himself up to be made fun of. I have zero problem with people making jokes about him, within reason. When I saw this thread I thought, "How bad could it be?". Then I looked the quote up. It was that bad. Bill Maher is a bigot and a christophobe with no sense of appropriateness. His comment was way out of bounds within civil society.
Do you have a problem with men or something? Why even bring up something like this? We disagree about something. You have your opinion and I have mine. Why do you need to turn it in to some men versus women thing?
And as a matter of fact, I didn't even know I was debating with a woman until you brought this up. I'm still confused why you would even bring it up?
I just read the whole law and it's all about how businesses are not to discriminate against gays "in a place of public accomodation" and then it states that religious organizations are not considered a place of public accomodation. It would seem that the law gives religious organizations an exemption from the law rather than focusing on them.

(see sec. 6, part 1)
There is a section prohibiting publishing discriminatory information regarding who the business will or will not serve or sell to, based on several factors, including sexual orientation.
As far as a person getting arrested for talking about homosexuality--that's not in the bill.

You really need to speak to Wifey and set her straight. :smilewinkgrin:
