Media attack Brit Hume on his suggestion of Christianity for Tiger Woods


Brit Hume of Fox News is being scrutinized for suggesting that Tiger Woods would find meaning in Christianity. It is sad that a commentator is not allowed to make a personal observation or suggestion based on faith in the public square. Brit Hume is expressing his opinion on an opinion program and he should be free to do that. We should all pray for Tiger Woods in the midst of the scandal as well. Here is the story from Gateway Pundit:

This enraged the liberals and leftists.
According to democrats and liberals it is no longer acceptable to promote Christianity publicly.
Steve Benan at
The Washington Monthly reported:

I was taken aback when I saw that Fox News’ Brit Hume, reflecting on Woods’ career on the air this morning, talked about whether the golfer may return to his chosen profession.

“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. So, 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.”

Hume was not, as the video shows, kidding.

It’s hard to even know where to start with something like this. How many high-profile Christians have had damaging sex scandals of late? Why is Buddhism deemed inadequate for those with family problems? Why is a senior political analyst for a so-called “news” network proselytizing, on the air, during one of the network’s “news” programs?

It used to be that liberals didn’t want you to mention Christ in schools. Then they banned Christ from Christmas concerts and public squares.
Now they are demanding that we not talk about Christianity in public.
We should have seen this coming.

More Brit-bashing from Politics Daily– “Jesus can tame you, Tiger”
