This cartoon is a comment not so much on either Tebow or Collins but, rather, on the media and the culture we live with today. The fact that we seem to care more about what a high profile athlete does with his privates versus what they believe. Faith often informs a person how to treat themselves and others around them. In Tebow’s case his profession of faith was often met with derision.
While a hope and pray for nothing but the best for Jason Collins and Tim Tebow I pray harder for a culture that seems to be so very badly broken.
