Repelled and Compelled! Best Comment About The Tiger Woods Mess
Dr. Gene Edward Veith who runs a “must read” blog site, had this to say about the Tiger Woods mess, and I have not read anything better.
Our culture pretends to be free and easy about sex, but we really aren’t. I was kind of astonished that all of Tiger Woods’ multitudinous endorsement ads have been pulled from prime time TV after his auto accident provoked some nine women (at last count) to admit committing adultery with the golf superstar. Our culture remains capable of moral disapproval over sexual sins! On the other hand, our culture remains pruriently interested in hearing the salacious details of those sexual sins, as evidenced by the current media frenzy over the matter. We are repelled and compelled at the very same time!


Who cares? This matter is not worth the time and space spent on it. There are greater issues we need to be concerned with. I’m surprised you and Vieth are addressing the mess. There’s already too much on TV news about his problems as is.
McCain Response. Unfortunately, your attitude is typical of those who think that we should just ignore such things. Rather, we should realize that this has become an item of interest, yes, even to Christians, and we can use this as a teaching opportunity. By the way, it is Dr. Veith. Not “Vieth.” Thanks.

Ah, you mean there truly is a natural law, written on man’s heart? {:-)
Imagine that!
