Freedom of religion; when can we practice this without being criticized? It seems that if you are in the media’s view, whether playing sports or some sort of stardom it is not okay to mention that it is all possible because of God. Today we are more offended if someone says thank God rather than it’s pure luck. Some have made this a big issue because one football star, feels as if God is in the mix of everything he does. Tim Tebow is well-known for giving thanks on the field before and after a game, win or lose.
"Many see it as okay when entertainers win awards and give thanks to God; however, it is not okay to pray in school and public because it may offend others! Society is putting forth the idea that the idea that God exists is okay but the actual praying to him is not. It irritates me when I see many of these stars thanking God for giving them their talent. I do not think that God has given these individuals talent to dance half naked on stage while singing lyrics that are vulgar. I think that if these stars would use their voice to praise God then they should give thanks. Yet that is how society wishes our thanks go to the Lord: In vain instead of actually praying from a sincere heart as you have said this football player does."
