On his radio talk show on December 15, 2011, Liberal radio pundit Bill Press, formerly with CNN. has a message for Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow: “S-T-F-U” about Jesus!
Press also said, "Now, if you're one of the silly millions who still see nothing wrong with Tebow's in-your-face brand of religion, consider this: What if Tim Tebow were a devout Muslim who bowed to Mecca after every touchdown while shouting: "Allahu Akbar!" Somehow, I don't think we'd be celebrating him as a national hero."
I think rather than addressing the point of Bill Press about whether Americans would be celebrating if Tebow was a devout Muslim, I think Bill Press should remember what had happened in the Netherlands about newspapermen like him who were defaming the Muslim religion. I am very sure “Shut The Fu*k Up” about Allah! as an editorial commentary expletive that Bill Press used would not have been taken very lightly by any devout Muslims kneeling on their prayer rugs. Bill Press would be a dead man walking right now, read further on that point...
In fact, today In the Netherlands, where filmmaker Theo van Gogh was killed by a fundamentalist for his criticism of Islam, cartoonist Kurt Westergaard is the Danish artist who created the controversial cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad wearing a bomb in his turban: he uses a pseudonym to protect his own identity. It's over five years after the publication of the cartoons, Westergaard still needs the same level of security as the Danish prime minister.
Bill Press is very fortunate he lives under the American Flag with our guaranteed religious freedoms; and with that, mutual respect goes out for ALL religions. Perhaps, it's time that he reads his own Bible:
Psalm 19:14: “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.”
Bill Press should definitely have his mouth washed out with a huge bar of Lava Laundry Soap!
Bill Press hosts the syndicated "Bill Press Show" on radio.
