In regard to the recent Tebow ad from Focus on the Family:
That was too much for NOW president Terry O'Neill, who told the Los Angeles Times the ad glorified violence against women: "I am blown away at the celebration of the violence against women in it. That's what comes across to me even more strongly than the anti-abortion message. I myself am a survivor of domestic violence, and I don't find it charming. I think CBS should be ashamed of itself." (my emphasis added in bold)
I am in absolute shock that the President of the NOW, the National Organization Against Women, has issued a statement exclaiming that the Tebow ad promotes domestic violence.
The commercial is awesome. It is not in your face pro-life... it is a true celebration of life. It is a beautiful example of trusting in the Lord and letting God do His work. And the result? Tim Tebow, Heisman Trophy Winner.
NOW states that they promote equality for women. If you know me, you know that I LOVE women's rights. I love equality and a basic understanding that all men and women are created equal. O'Neill, you have just made a statement that actually challenges the credibility of your organziation. To make such an off the wall statement about this commerical is like reaching for straws. That is the only thing you can think to ctiticize? Because we know it's not the message of the actual commerical that could be argued against. Because the commerical is thoughtfully crafted so to speak to all people whether prolife or proabortion about the beauty of life. It definitely isn't to criticize Focus on the Family for being overly critical of proabortionist because that message does not exist.
No, the only thing that could be criticized is the non-existent domestic violence message. Yep, I am sure that's what Focus on the Family overlooked when they created a commerical to support life. Please.
I have to remember to pray for Ms. O'Neill and the entire NOW organization. And I also need to pray in thanksgiving that such an amazing message was able to reach so many viewers during the Superbowl. How amazing that a man (Tebow) in such a high position is able to use that 'power' to glorify God. Amen!
And for your viewing pleasure I have also included a picture of Tim Tebow and his beautiful mother.
