Went looking for this after reading Peter Wehner\u2019s thoughts<\/strong> on Brit Hume\u2019s remarks on Tiger Woods<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Also, Bill O\u2019 Reilly touches base with Hume over what he meant by his initial remarks.<\/p>\n

To those who wonder if I am as uncomfortable<\/strong> with Hume discussing religion in this clip, as I was earlier<\/a>, the answer is no; in fact I think it\u2019s great. Some might recall that I defended what Hume said<\/em> on the Fox News panel, I merely expressed reservations about the venue. I maintained several days ago that time and place do<\/em> matter, and -as Muggeridge suggests in the first clip- so does tone. In fact, I like how Bender finally put it in the comments section of that post:<\/p>\n

I will grant that there are more or less effective ways of proclaiming Christ, and the time and place may require a more delicate manner \u2014 the hard sell is not always the right way (and is often the \u201cwrong way,\u201d that is, an ineffective way) \u2014 but Christ should always and everywhere shine through us in some manner.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Indeed.<\/em> I gotta tell you, the Christians who felt the need to email me that they\u2019d \u201calways suspected\u201d that I was \u201cnot a real<\/em> Christian\u201d because I did not sufficiently and unreservedly praise Hume were probably using what I\u2019d call the \u201cineffective\u201d<\/em> way to \u201cinstruct and admonish\u201d me, and to proclaim the love and tender mercies of Our Lord and Redeemer. No matter what, I\u2019m still going to process what comes my way by whatever light and reason the Holy Spirit has lain upon me, as I believe we are all called to do. But keep at me; keep trying. I am a sinner, and when you guys take the time to shove my head in the toilet for not measuring up, it does me good. I learn a lot<\/em>! :-)<\/p>\n
