Tim Tebow standing Up in Super Bowl ad

I was at a meeting yesterday afternoon and was distracted by the television I was facing. At the bottom of the screen the text was asking about whether Tim Tebow was risking his reputation over an advertisement that was to run during the Super Bowl Ad. The ad focuses on his mother's decision not to have an abortion and instead give birth to him. The television I was facing was tuned to one of the many ESPN sports stations that are broadcast. I couldn't hear what they were talking about but the fact that the text kept popping up made me wonder how far we have come as a nation. It was in bold print on the bottom of the screen. Advertising has become so anti-family that many ads are even much worse than the lousy shows that are broadcast today. This man stands up for the least of us and yet he is criticized for his views. And some won't criticize what his views are but yet don't want them on the airways. These people with their heads in the sand are just as bad as those who oppose his views. I agree with Tebow on his view of abortion but I am far from innocent in this matter. I was the one twenty years ago that didn't think this issue mattered. I didn't take time to focus on the facts until I was forced to. When I was forced to I could see that every child matters. Today I can see that the voiceless child needs someone to speak up for them. Tim Tebow's reputation as a human being will only be enforced by airing this advertisement for life. Maybe ESPN (ABC) is criticizing CBS and their showing of the ad because they don't have the backbone to show an ad like this. I maybe totally wrong about this- (ESPN's backbone). The issue of life is where I'm sure I'm on the right side. We have come so far as a society-for starters we need to put down the shovel and stop digging, crawl out of the hole and look around.
