I do have a question for you.  Isn't that nose ring they lead you around by beginning to hurt a little?

That comment might actually sting if it came from someone whose IQ was over 70.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I am right.  Just ask Ex.  ;D

Loved Ex's comment surrounding the hypocrisy - it sprang to my mind as soon as I read the first post!   :biggrin:  :yes:

I think Tiger should just do what Tiger wants to do, just like the rest of us, and leave the religion to the zealots.

And to the anchors of FNC.  :yes:

How pompous is it of Brit Hume to suggest that Xtianity is the best way for Tiger to recover from this mess.  You don't need any religion to have compunction, to be contrite, to seek to be a better person, and to seek forgiveness from those you've wronged.   What an ass he is to state that.

I agree, Tiger is a big boy, but Brit was only giving some very sound advice....an option that carries a lot of creed....imo (please don't confuse this with those who only claim to be christian and don't follow their own advice....)

He didn't say it was the best, it was just HIS opinion of what Tiger shoud/could do...if that make Brit and ass, then it makes me one too...because, IF (and when... :razz: ) Tiger asks for my advice, that is probably where I would first begin.... :wink:

So pretty much all of them.

Brit Hume gave HIS opinion on what Tiger should do.............Big deal...........honestly if you don't like Fox News .....don't watch it.

every TV has a channel selector....use it....pretty simple.

btw, fox news is by far the leading news channel outlet......there is a reason for this.

people LIKE it...and the tune in to it.

btw, WHY is it crap for Hume to say HIS opinion on Tiger becoming a Christian?
it is called Freedom of Speech.....THAT is what he is exercising.

hume-ass is entitled to his opinion, but as a news caster is way out of line promoting his religion.  He is a fuck ball and panders to morons like you that just suck that teet all you can.  In your case, he is preaching to the choir.  In most faux news viewers minds, he is preaching to the choir; idiots all.

Let's try this, two newscasters or at least one sportscaster and one news;

Howard Cosell calling a black football player "a quick little monkey" EQUALS hume-ass calling woods to "turn to christianity as the ONLY way he can get forgiveness and recover from the scandal".

They are both opinions, and perhaps with good intentions both, but if you can't see the stupidity of hume-ass's statement, then you really are an idiot.  The christian majority that, like you, that think hume is "right on" make me sick and embarrass me as an American.

first of all, he did NOT say that was the ONLY way...he said that turning to the Christian faith could offer a complete recovery and be a great example to the world...because of it's power of redemption and forgiveness....he mere offered a proven solution....Hume is 100% right on, and quite frankly I really don't care IF i make you sick or embarrassed, I, from the bottom of my heart, honestly and truthfully don't....you have only once again proved how foolish YOU are, with such a asinine example....you have such a hatred towards Christians it is almost comical....I feel rather sad for you.....but, then again, I really don't...never mind.

:angel:


...and just a reminder, numbnuts;

Hume: "The extent to which he can recover seems to me depends on his faith. He is said to be a Buddhist. I don't think that faith offers the kind of redemption and forgiveness offered by the Christian faith. My message to Tiger is, 'Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world.'"
