On the surface, one might not think that Donald Trump and Tim Tebow have much in common but don't rush to that conclusion. Shall we take a glimpse at the shared traits of 'The Donald' and 'The Q-Back.' Both seemingly have financial stability; Tebow's came from throwing a football whereas Trump's derived from tossing a few bankruptcies at creditors. Both gentlemen have a 'deity fixation;' Tebow worships his God and Trump believes he IS God!
The young upstart Tebow and the senior Trump each hold very high self-proclaimed opinions on an sundry of matters. I think Trump takes his role as chairperson on the television show, 'Apprentice' into real world matters and thus pontificates edict-like thoughts with a 'Hitler-like' persona. He is ready to 'fire' (dismiss) any who may hold opposite views than he. Trump's endless anti-President Obama remarks are well documented and he clings to the birther-conspiracy theory like stink hangs on manure.
Tebow is a bit more subtle with his passion promotions; everything he does or states runs a rail alongside his Christian views. Certainly, I find absolutely nothing wrong with that life-style except; that's right, EXCEPT! I always feel skepticism build within when anyone talks about Jesus constantly. I find myself awaiting that infamous 'other shoe' to drop. You may recall that when George 'W' orchestrated that military/invasion attack on Iraq, he later told reporters that he spoke to his Heavenly Father before authorizing the war-assault; the subliminal message from "W" was thus, George had a permission slip from God to kill people! BULL BUTTER!
Just this morning, I read that Tebow's lawyers have established a 'trademark' on Tebow's kneeling on one knee with elbow resting on the 'up' knee and fist at forehead assuming a prayerful posture. Give me a break, Tebow can now sue folks who strike THAT pose? I have no proof but would we not think that somewhere along the Christian legacy the same position was used while praying? The next thing I am going to hear is Trump and Tebow came back from a mountain climbing venture with this mysterious stone-tablet with commandment-like rules.
Trump...Ecclesiastes 5:5..."It is better that you should not vow than to vow and not pay."
Tebow...Matthew 6:6..."Go into a closet and pray in secret to your Father."
