Whether Tiger is forgiven by a supernatural entitiy or not doesn't change the mess he made right here in life.

I don't think Clinton cares of the Christian right forgives him. He does need to be concerned about his family forgiving him though. I feel sorry for them more than him.

Many western religions do advocate absolution. They also dictate to be born with sin and live the rest of your life asking for forgiveness. The Buddist doctrine is opposite and the same. Mr. Hume, like many of his christian counterparts, cannot comprehend that over 400 million people on this planet choose to go to temple and not church (and then their are the many people comfortabe with believing in each other). Many of the hosts and commentators of Fox News will raise the religion card and refer to The Creation Theory. I think the real story is that Tiger Woods and his family are continually being dragged through the mud by these types of observations. It happened, allow them to move on. When Tiger Woods is attacked, so is his family. Yes, I know they are no longer together; every action has a reaction. Nobody talks about the extemely questionalbe motives of the females who went after their fifteen minutes of fame. I have a few names for them but they would be deleted if I put them on this post.

Christianity is 'better' than Buddhism. It's better than all other religions in that Christianity offers salvation and ever lasting life. It also provides for free will. Anyone may choose not to accept the Christ as their Saviour but in doing so they forsake salvation. It's an easy choice really.

No it's not. He can;t believe in all of them and be faithful to his own.

Took guts for Britt to say that.
