Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow's very public Christian faith has been praised - and parodied. In spite of all the jokes, a new survey shows a lot of people think the Broncos quarterback "is" getting help from above.

 
 
The Poll Position website conducted a telephone survey of 756 people and found 43 percent think divine intervention is playing a role in Tebow's success.
The percentage is higher among young people age 18-29 (52 percent), Republicans (54 percent), African-Americans (60 percent), and Hispanics (81 percent).
The percentage is lower among whites (38 percent), Democrats (35 percent), and independent voters (35 percent).
Father Peter Eaton, the dean of St. John's Cathedral in Denver, says when a superstar like Tebow talks about God, people listen.
"It's a fascinating, it's a fascinating thing. It may not be the way that I would talk about it and it may not be the way you talk about it. We should welcome the conversation from wherever it comes," Eaton said.
Eaton believes God plays a role in everything, including life's wins and losses.
"There must be a balance. So what I would hope Tim Tebow does, is that Tim Tebow is equally able to praise God for his defeats, as he is to praise God for his victories," Eaton said.
For some fans, including Cody Galloway, the question remains of whether God has performed miracles at Sports Authority Field at Mile High and other places the Broncos have played.
"It's certainly fun to think about. There are some convincing things to the story like the halo over Mile High," Galloway said.
