FACES PUBLIC CENSURE!
MEDIA DEMANDS APOLOGY!
The most offensive two words in the English language are not Barack Obama, George Bush, staunch liberal or compassionate conservative. Neither are the words f*** you, nor any other expletive.
The words, according to Fox News Analyst Brit Hume, are Jesus Christ.
Mr. Hume has faced a maelstrom of criticism for suggesting that Tiger Woods, the professional golfer, turn to Jesus Christ in order to makeover his personal life.
Woods marriage has been wrecked by scandals of adulterous behavior not only with golf groupies but also professional prostitutes.
On Fox News Sunday, Mr. Hume suggested that the golfer - - who claims to be a Buddhist - -turn to Christianity for answers to his personal problems and the means to achieve reconciliation with his wife and children.
His remarks concerning Tiger Woods emerged from his response host Chris Wallaces question about the biggest sports story of 2009.
Mr. Hume said that the biggest story concerning Woods and his admission of infidelities and indiscretions. He speculated that while the golfer will recover professionally, his comeback as a family man and a role model for young people remains a question mark.
Tiger Woods will recover as a golfer. Hume predicted. Whether he can recover as a person I think is a very open question, and its a tragic situation for him. I think hes lost his family; its not clear to me if hell be able to have a relationship with his children, but the Tiger Woods that emerges once the news value dies out of this scandal -- the extent to which he can recover -- seems to me to depend on his faith.

Is this any surprise from those who appear to worship evil?

Bravo! Bret Hume. He dared to speak truth in the face of persecution.
Let us all be so bold.
Speak Truth, the Truth of Jesus Christ.
God help us in our day, in Jesus name, amen.

Jude 1:4
For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Britt Hume has every right to suggest Jesus for salvation.
Tiger Woods is a Buddhist.
Being in America, Tiger Woods has every right to find his own method of salvation.
To: Tamar Rush
The two most offensive words are “tolerance” and “diversity”.

No matter what your take on AA or Al-Anon...the basic concept of the program has helped countless millions to stop drinking or change other behaviors and there is nothing else close...and it is faith based...and the basis of all the other "recovery" programs that try to mimic it, including so-called Sex Addicts Anonymous...even though it has been significantly watered down recently by the use of a "higher power" concept taken well beyond the intent of the original writings...and recovery programs are what the left is supposed to love...until they bump into the undeniable fact that the concept of "turning your life over to a higher power" is at the core...

As a Christian, pray for all of those who haven’t accepted Jesus into their lives to do so, including detractors.

He dared to speak truth in the face of persecution.I think that persecution is increasing for all of us now.
When I went to visit family and old friends in Washington, DC over Christmas, I twice had people I had known for a long, long time ridicule me for being a Christian.
On both occasions, I had not said anything at all to provoke this.
On both occasions, I reinforced to these people that yes, I am a Christian and then dropped it. I don't suffer rude, ignorant behavior glady and figured that was the best course of action.

This has more to do with Brit’s employer than his words.
Can you imagine the same outcry if Jesse Jackson had said the same thing?
I rest my case.

I twice had people I had known for a long, long time ridicule me for being a Christian. More proof that a war is coming. I am not a religious person, but it's obvious to me and has been for a long time that sides are being picked before the big game.
?I will be playing on the side of right and will defend against anyone who worships at the alter of self and citizens of the world.
To: Tamar Rush
God Bless you Britt Hume,you are a jewel..If FOX dares to call him on the carpet then they will get a lot of angry viewers I am sure..FOX is the networks that need to tell these anti Christian fools to back off..Do not apologize there is nothing to apologize for,God is love and we need lots of that now..

Let’s hope Hume sticks to his guns. I think he will.
I’m so confident of his employer.

Many, many masks have slipped in the past 20 months or so. Once done, they can’t be put back with the same effect.
There are people, groups and organizations who have permanently forfeited my trust and goodwill, once they felt the confidence to express or demonstrate what and who they truly are.
I am always saddened to find that a ‘friend’ is in fact hostile, but I am glad to find this out as early as possible.
