A true Christian would not commit adultery. Because a true Chrisitian
realizes the sanctity of the marriage vow. We are talking a true
Chrisitian , not the "pick and choose" version that most are today.


It might do Tiger well to find Jesus. It might do anyone well, who feels
empty and has this need to wander. Live by Jesus, you really cannot go
wrong. How could anyone disagree with the teachings of Jesus? If Tiger
lived thinking WWJD, he would not be in the mess he is in.

We all get tempted. That is normal. Then I think WWJD, and case closed!

Does the scripture say this?

Most of the Religious Right is huge on "pick and choose".

There is plenty of christianity groups out there, I suggest you go

so we should demand he be a Christian -- just like the crazy Muslims demands
only one choice for religion --- you are one dim light bulb -- why not
go to alt.religion?

I think Hume was referring to the idea if you believe in a certain
fairy tale you gain entry into a club where every sin is forgiven, no
questions ask!

Kinda completely opposite to personal responsibility which
conservatives preach.

I dunno.

In the Bible it says that Jesus hung out with the downtrodden, the
lepers and the prostitutes.

So hanging out with prostitutes makes you a better Christian?

I think in addition to being able to change water to wine, Jesus could
change water to beer. How else could you get 12 guys to follow you?

You are an idiot.

When I heard Hume's babbling the other day, I almost fell out of my
chair.

First, he seemed condescending to the Buddhists. As someone who has
travelled all over Southeast Asia, I have come to respect the people
and the religeon greatly.
I am surprised there were no commets from the Buddhist community over
all this.

But what was most shocking of all, was Hume getting on his high horse,
going into a preaching mode, and saying that Tiger should find
"Jesus". How utterly stupid. And insulting to Jews, Muslims, and
other faiths, how dare someone on a national TV news show infer that
one particular faith has moral superiority over others. Fox won't
miss me I am sure, but I am tuning out.

On O'Reily last night, Hume was quizzed about all this. He stood by
his guns, was not the least apologetic, and then went on a roll about
his beliefs in Jesus.

I am personally sick of Obama and this Democratic controlled congress,
but with the likes of Hume, there is certainly no hope on the right.
I am tired of Palin, Huckabee, and others on the right constantly
bringing faith into every issue. I am sick and tired of hearing from
them how we are a Chrisitian nation founded on Judeo-Chrisitan
values. Let's keep faith and religon a personal, private matter.
This country is a melting pot, everyone gets equal standing in my
book. These people breed intolerance, at a time where we need more
than ever tolerance.
We really need a strong 3rd party, there is no hope on either side.

Tiger found Jesus. He was mowing Tiger's lawn.

Tiger is already God so why would he concern himself with Jesus,
anyway?
If he wanted to worship a mythical God, he'd do better with Horus, the
Falcon God.
You might recall that Horus was the ancient Egyptian God whose life
experiences were stolen and later ascribed to Jesus. You know, the
wise men, the star in the sky, the manger, the virgin birth .... that
was all Horus, hundreds of years before Jesus. Also Horus was part
bird.
Can your Jesus fly? I think not.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Good luck getting that third party started, you know holding the
coalition together like the parliamentary alliances, and keeping it past

It's debatable if Buddhism is even a religion at all. And, as Hume so
rightly pointed out, it has no concept of repentance, forgiveness and
redemption.

Are these necessary for something to qualify as a religion. Buddhism is a
guide to living life, much like Christianity can be. It does have
enlightenment going for it though........

A lot depends on your definition of God. The Buddhists (and Hindus)
do not see any separation between man and God. Each man, they
believe, can reach the state of enlightenment where they realize that
they are, in fact, God.

This doesn't really meet the definition of God in the Judea-Christian
(and Islam) tradition. To them the path to salvation does not end
with total union with God, but rather a state where the soul lives in
the presence of God. Of course, there are many variations on this
theme but man and God are not the same in any of them.

"Each man?" Most people I see wouldn't make God's mascot list. And
let me be perfectly clear. I couldn't be a flea on the mascot of
God's sidekick, and I'm a retired military officer who owns a mansion
and a yacht.

The next time I say, "Let there be light," I'll be getting a beer from
the fridge, not creating a universe.

Years ago, I remember listening to one of those fundamentalist
preachers on the TV. He was looking for donations and said that God
needed my help. I thought, if God needs my help, then we're in deep
trouble for sure.
