Wow, talk about Christian privilege and arrogance. Brit Hume, another of Fox News gems (yes, that is sarcasm), is doling out some non-solicited advice to Tiger Woods on how to make a total recovery from his recent life events by turning to Christianity.

Here’s what Hume had to say…
“The extent to which he can recover seems to me depends on his faith,” Hume said. “He is 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. My message to Tiger would, ‘Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world.”

This is wrong on so many levels. First, who in the world does he think he is to suggest that Christianity is the way to go when there are so many Christian leaders and Christian preachers who have done exactly as Tiger by committing adultery? If he were to follow that line of thinking then Tiger should just apologize, lay low and give it time. After all, it worked for many other adulterers, many who are Christian. So maybe Christianity is not the solution and according to Hume nor is Buddhism.

Second, the arrogance that there is only one road to Tiger’s salvation and of course that road goes through the church. In fact, maybe religion has nothing to do with Tiger’s bad decisions and choices. Maybe, just maybe he has to figure his own way out of the mess he created. And perhaps there is more than one right way to do that.
