Very good points

Did you send this article to Brit Hume and the rest of the Fox team ? :)

Point 5 is why the caste system is so engrained in their culture. Someone is “reborn” as an untouchable because that is their punishment for their past lives’ transgressions,

so any attempt to make the lower castes lives better is in violation of their religion.

Tiger Woods will fail Tiger Woods, Buddhism will just be the path that Tiger Lion Cheetah will fail with.

If you see a beggar wallowing in the gutter don’t you dare help him! He is working off bad Karma.

Not sure about that. You have your own Karma as well, and if you want to reincarnate to a higher state, you have to perform good deeds. Helping the beggar is a good deed that will result in good Karma for you.

Nice post, Arcy!

Don’t worry about any of this stuff. Life as we perceive it is an illusion, a projection of the mind like a dream. All we have to do is wake up.

I wonder what Tiger Woods did in his previous life so as to be punished in his current life with being the richest most successful golfer ever, and having to have sex with all those women. It must have been one horrible deed./s

Buddhism is a muddy Sand trap...

If Buddists believe in reincarnation, does that mean Tiger will come back as a rabbit? :)

Tiger: “Who said anything about Buddhism? I said that I wished to be a faithful follower of Bootyism!”

The vast majority of the population has no memory of their prior lives. If we’re all a product of previous life-cycles, why don’t we remember our previous lives? How can we work off bad karma if we don’t recognize our prior mistakes?

I see from your posts that you misunderstant Buddhism.

[Psycho_Bunny]

I believe Buddhism will fail Woods.

But you know little about it and are positing fairly ignorant questions.

[Russ]

Instead of criticizing Tiger for his reliance on Buddhism we, as Christians, should be praying for him. Praying that in his spiritual journey he comes to meet someone who will redirect his quest toward Christ. Only through Him will he ever attain permanent peace and forgiveness.

Good one...

[FrankR]

I am so not interested in the life and times of Tiger Woods.

Isn't there a "tabloid section" where this could go?

If we’re all a product of previous life-cycles, why don’t we remember our previous lives?

I'm not a Buddhist but ... if we all spent months in our mothers' wombs, how come were don't remember even a second of it?

He chose the middle path.

A lot, apparently.

Reincarnation is not the central tenet of Buddhism. Buddhism teaches:

I. The Way to the End of Suffering
II. Right View
III. Right Intentions
IV. Right Speech, Right Action, and Right Livelihood
V. Right Effort
VI. Right Mindfulness
VII. Right Concentration
VIII. The Development of Wisdom

Tiger was not strong enough to overcome his temptations, just as many Christians aren’t. There are many other errors in your analysis, but they are typical for most Christians, who panic at the mention of anything even remotely reperesenting eastern theology.
