Will Tiger come back as a slug?

We all know about the famous golfer's moral failures this year. One interesting point is that he is a Buddhist and there is no real place for grace and forgiveness in their doctrine. So if Karma is real, Tiger is in trouble.

Fox News Correspondent Brit Hume offered a different and wonderful suggestion:
Maybe Tiger should consider Jesus.

You can see the video here:

If you are too lazy to copy the link, here is the transcript:


"Tiger Woods will recover as a golfer. Whether he can recover as a person I think is a very open question, and it's a tragic situation with him. I think he's lost his family. It's not clear to me that -- whether he'll 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 depends on his faith. He's 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 would be, "Tiger, turn your faith -- turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world."


****UPDATE****

Brit does not back down! Here he is on O'Reilly defending and expanding what he said!
