The secular elite don’t want to hear the name of Jesus Christ because it makes them feel guilt. And for them, that is a feeling that is absolutely unnecessary....................

“...his(Woods) golfing talent was almost a license to misbehave.”

golfing talent + his race = license to misbehave.

And there are two very young children involved. The wife, Elin, being Swedish, is probably at least nominally Christian, probably Lutheran “by tradition.” One wonders if the children are being exposed to either Christianity or Buddhism. My guess is that they are not.

"Monogamy just isn't always realistic. There's nothing wrong with admitting that. It simply doesn't work for some. And just as people choose different religions, eating habits, and places to call home, I believe we should be able to choose different ways to live out our relationships."

So....marriage, as defined by Jenny Block, is being unmarried. Some news outlets would do well to reconsider before giving a 9-year old a magaphone.

Good for Brit. He knew as well as anyone he was broaching the taboo with his statement concerning Woods, redemption, and Christianity. Brit’s now taking the flak he had to know would be coming and can now consider himself blessed for the sake of righteousness.

golfing legend was severely cheating on the mother of his young children

The author doesn't even mention 'wife'.

not surprising to learn of Woods' multiple affairs because his "entire life is based on winning; on having, doing, and being more

Yes, having bimbo's all over the place is hard. Staying true to your marriage vows and wife - childs play.

At the epicenter of our secular cultural media is a writer named Jenny Block, who argued at Newsweek's website it was not surprising to learn of Woods' multiple affairs because his "entire life is based on winning; on having, doing, and being more ... why on earth would anyone think 'settling down' was even in his vocabulary?"

Gee, I wonder if seeing marriage as a loss, as full stop on all opportunities to grow or improve, has anything to do with this silly twit "needing" more than her husband to be satisfied.

Nah...must be global warming that did it.

“his race”???? Woods is multi-racial — he’s got white blood in him too, as well as Asian and Native American. He’s not black.

Ricardo Montalban once said, “Any dog can jump from bed to bed. It takes a real man to satisfy a woman for a lifetime.”

"because it makes them feel guilt"

I expect on one level you're right but I also think that it's because they don't want anyone other than government (themselves) to arbitrate right and wrong.

It never ceases to floor me when I start a secular humanists talking about how one knows the difference between right and wrong. They are absolutely stupid on the issue and you'll see a lot of it on exhibit in the comments on the Hume/Woods story.

““his race”???? Woods is multi-racial”

...of course...he’s the perfect poster boy for the multi-cultural enthusists...that’s partly why they loved him so.

There are no absolutes in a secular humanist’s world, only gray areas, ill defined outlines of human behavior, and fuzzy feel good morality rules. “Who’s to say what’s right or wrong?” “If it feels good, do it!” “All cultures are equal.” “Diversity is strength.”.............

C.S. Lewis in the first few chapters of “Mere Christianity” explains that guilt reflex to a “T”.

Actually he’s less black than Halle Berry who has a white mother and a black father (50-50), Tiger is at the most 33% black according to the definitions around.
