Brit Hume turned evangelist on Fox New Sunday, in a segment with panelists predicting the future for Tiger Woods after Woods’ notable “transgressions” (now a 2009 top euphemism, along with “Appalachian Trail,” as a signifier for “mistress.”)
Hume forecasts Woods will recover as a golfer but
…Whether he can recover as a person depends on “his faith. He’s said to be a Buddhist. I don’t think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith. So my message to Tiger would be, “Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world…”
Har!
Somehow I don’t think that Christianity would be Tigers first choice. Not when others are out there promising 72 virgins.
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Karma plays a big part in the Buddhist psyche, and in Conservative Libertarian politics. There is a world without guilt.
What is wrong with asking someone to honestly turn from the things that have caused so much trouble?
(Yeah, dismiss then lauch your strawman and ad-hominem attacks at religion as you see it.)
Hume is just doing what his faith calls him to do. If you think this is wrong then you are not being “tolerant”.
My message to Brit would be “Stick it up your ass, Brit!”
I can’t think of a better example of where you can make your case better by shutting the fuck up.
Christians everywhere should be pelting this asshole with rotten veggies.
Why is this guy trying to get Tiger to change his religion? It’s not like Christians never fool around on their spouses…
Perplexing Question:
Do all loonies end up at Fox? or
Does one choose to be a loony to work at Fox? or
Does one become a loony once they work there?
Actually, what Brit Hume is advocating is a form of faith feature-shopping. Of Buddhism, he says “I don’t think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith.” On that basis, he advises Tiger to turn to the Christian faith so he “can make a total recovery and be an great example to the world.”
Hume gives great marketing advice. There are many Christians in America who want to be able to come home from church on a Sunday afternoon and root for a “redeemed” Tiger Woods to win the Masters.
Tiger will probably switch to jihadist. Such a waste of incredible talent – it’s sad.
What a freaking moronic christ-punching loser.
Next he’ll be saying that Osama BinLaden just needs to turn christian and the world would be all fixed up and the TSA could go fornicate itself with an iron stick!
And #9 – The correct answer is: All of the above
Yeah, when you get your ass in a sling – it’s always a good time to find Jeebus. I didn’t realize Brit Hume was a douche bag. Just remember, Ted Haggard – if religion can cure teh ghey, it should work on whore addiction too.

F..ull
O..f
X..crement
I agree with #14.
Yeah, like Christians don’t have extramarital affairs. At least Tiger had them with women.
way to go Brit. funny as hell. ill bet Brit knew he would be responsible for causing millions of politically correct asswads to suffer seizures from the sheer lack of any political correctness in what he said. Haaaaaaaaaa…..
Were Senator David Vitter and SC Governor Mark Sanford on the panel?
Yes, turn to Christian faith for forgiveness like millions of fck-tards had. Mind you not everyone, just the millions.
If that statement alone doesn’t have you questioning whether or not this so call Christian faith or any other faith is full of BS then I don’t know what.
Do something bad, join and religion be forgiven and do more bad stuff. Yea, good idea but leave me out thank you.
Tough group.
Kinda provides the feel of what it was like from the “Crucify Him!” crowd.
#19 — In hind sight, the crucifying was not worth the nails and lumber. Stoning would have been cheaper.
May be there should be a website that does comparative shopping on the different religions so that any time you do bad things, you can find the best religion that will cover your ass.
#14 Ima Idiot – you made my day! Kudos and lol!
#10 I was glancing at the screen and thought you said Tiger is switching to jailbait.
I feel sorry for the poor bastard.
Brit must have gotten confused and thought he was on the 700 Club for a minute, or he was temporarily ‘channeling’ Pat Robertson.
I blame the large hadron collider.
Woods’s personal life is no one’s business except for he and his family’s. That is, of course, unless Hume also wants us to discuss his personal life.
If I was advising Woods, considering his proclivity for multiple mistresses, I would recommend that he convert to Mormon fundamentalism.
Buddha is DEAD, JESUS is ALIVE! Good on you Brit Hume! At least you believe in something and man enough to state it, unlike these cowards that believe we evolved from rocks and critisize everything Christian because of their meaningless misrable lives…..
( There is hope you know! )
Yes Fluffy! that is true about mormon ism! celestial sex in the after life, Give me a break! pervs
No, no, Tiger! Shun the Nazarene and come home to Pastafarianism! To symbolize being covered in shame for your transgressions, cover yourself with Ragu! (Stay away from those Classico and Newman’s Own heretics!)
My Classico is bigger than your Ragu.
I like the way Tiger golfs. His personal life is none of my business. I find it easy to believe that lots of golfers on the pro tour are banging bimbos — what’s the big shock here?
Christianity is a great religion for “sinners” because they can keep at it and always get just one more chance.
