I have been in Tiger's shoes. It is not something to brag about. It is a character defect or even an addiction if you find a doctor willing to prescribe that type of therapy. It is an immaturity of our manhood that makes us ignore our marital duties to pleasure ourselves with sexual frolics.
Sex is a billion dollar industry. It permeates our society in every way possible to transfer money out of our pockets to the marketer's banks. Still it is not an excuse to go out and be unfaithful to our marriage vows. Jesus said to even think of lust is a sin. So when I go into the grocery stores and I see women revealing just enough to stay legal and of the course the guys with the six packs showing - that is not causing people to sin -right? Was I talking about the magazines?
The truth is as my relationship with my wife deepens, I get more joy out of our marriage together. I don't want to frolic with anyone for a tryst because it is not satisfying and it has caused me massive guilt. I would rather focus on what is the next right thing to do and that is not sneaking off with someone for sex.
So Tiger Woods sinned. So did I. In fact, I probably sinned a couple of times today already. I am not proud of it but I am imperfect as a human being and so is everyone else. So we are all sinners because God said we were and we don't call God a liar. Jesus said when they brought to Him the woman caught in adultery, "He who has not sinned, cast the first stone." The accusers left. Then He said to the woman, "I don't condemn you. Go and sin no more." Jesus would forgive Tiger and say, "Go and sin no more." I figure the sinners of the human race have the opportunity to do as Jesus showed us what to do.
