Tebow is a great athlete, and I have loads of respect and admiration for his courage to be vocal and public about his faith, something that we need to do as well. We need to make a place for G-d in the public sphere, and never cower away from being shluchim and ambassadors for Torah Judaism wherever we go. People will respect us when we learn not to be afraid of who we are. And, when liberal Jews complain about Christians being open and vocal about their convictions, they are merely perpetuating the decline of Judaism. The answer to strengthening the Jewish people is not by whining about a nativity scene or Tebowing, but by being public and unafraid of things like the Hanukkiah, kashrut, tzniut, kippah, shabbat, tzitzit, etc.
