Pastor of First Church of Tiger Woods Releases Statement on War
John Ziegler, the Pastor of the First Church of Tiger Woods, in response to the Vatican stating that it is against the war with Iraq, released this statement:
“We at the First Church of Tiger Woods believe that this war is completely justified and we support our President and our troops 100%. We pray that the USA kicks ass quickly enough so that television coverage of Tiger’s next three tournaments, including the Masters, will not be overly interrupted.”
Our Interpretation of The Prophecies
Many followers of other, sometimes more popular, religions have turned to the prophecies of the Bible to try to prove that their Messiah is indeed the fulfillment of the scriptures. While we at the First Church of Tiger Woods are somewhat skeptical of this device because so much is left to one’s own interpretation, we feel that we can play this game as well as any other faith. Below are just some of the biblical prophecies that seem to indicate to us that they were actually intended to refer to Tiger Woods.
Proverbs 22:15 “Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.”
Obviously this passage refers to Tiger’s wildness off the tee as a youth.
Isaiah 11:8 “And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp.”
A snake hole and a golf hole are about the same size, aren’t they? Plus, we are quite certain that there were snakes somewhere on the first course Tiger played.
Jeremiah 28:13 “Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron.”
It is apparently not just coincidence that Tiger came around right as golf switched from wooden woods to metal woods.
Psalm 89:32 “Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.”
Tiger, with his stripes, punishes his opponents with his clubs.
Psalm 31:4 “Free me from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge.”
Tiger is an excellent bunker player.
Revelations 12:5 “And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron.”
Here the scriptures predict how Tiger, at a young age, will dominate the world with his irons.
Isaiah 10:15 “as if the rod should shake itself against them that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up itself, as if it were no wood.”
Isaiah is obviously writing of the ease with which Tiger swings the club, almost like it swings itself.
Isaiah 11:5 “But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.”
Here he refers to Tiger taking divots and predicts Tiger will fight evil with words from his rather large lips.
Zachariah 8:4 “Thus saith the Lord of hosts: There shall yet old and old women dwell in the streets, and every man with his staff in his hand through multitude of days. And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls, playing in the streets therof.”
This scripture foretells the increase in popularity of golf due to Tiger’s emergence, especially among inner city youths.
Isaiah 42:16 “I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them and crooked things straight.”
Ezekiel 12:12 “The prince among them will put his things on his shoulder at dusk and leave, and a hole will be dug in the wall for him to go through. He will cover his face so that he cannot see the land.”
Zachariah 14:6 “There shall be one day, which is known to the Lord, not day nor night; and in the time of the evening there shall be light.”
These passages are obvious references to Tiger’s final hole at the 2000 NEC Invitational where he hit his second shot to within two feet in complete darkness and the gallery spontaneously lit his way with cigarette lighters.
Isaiah 63:2 “Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?”
Nahun 2:3 “The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet.”
Jeremiah 4:30 “thou clothest thyself with scarlet”
Daniel 5:7 “shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”
Now we understand why Tiger wears Red on Sundays (and yes, he used to wear a gold chain and, behind Bobby Jones and Jack Nicklaus, could be considered the third ruler of the golf kingdom).
Isaiah 41:2-5 “He shall rule over kings. He shall give them as the dust to his sword, as stubble driven by the wind, to his bow. He shall pursue them, he shall pass in peace, no path shall appear after his feet.”
Tiger has already largely fulfilled this prophecy (just ask the “King” Arnold Palmer), and may complete it when he switches from metal spikes to spikeless golf shoes.
Isaiah 41:11 “Behold all that fight against thee shall be confounded and ashamed, they shall be as nothing, and the men shall perish that strive against him.”
Isaiah 43:20 “The beast of the field shall glorify me;”
Isaiah 52:13-14 “he shall be exalted, and extolled, and shall be exceedingly high. As many have been astonished at thee,”
Jeremiah 46:15 “Why are thy valiant men come to nothing? They stood not, because the Lord hath overthrown them.”
Isaiah and Jeremiah apparently understood how demoralizing Tiger’s domination would be to his opponents.
Jeremiah 10:6 “There is none like to thee, O Lord: thou art great, and great is thy name in might.”
We already know how GREAT Tiger is, but did you know that his name spelled backwards in Latin (Regit) means “he reigns.”
Isaiah 11:6 “the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.”
Isaiah 53:5 “with his stripes we are healed.”
Luke 12:48 “But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.”
These passages can easily be interpreted to show the significance and power of the “Tiger,” and to illustrate the unprecedented pressure and burden of expectations that he has faced and conquered.
Levititcus 13:41 “And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet is he clean.”
Here the Bible absolves Tiger of one of his few faults, his receding hairline.
Psalm 69:4 “They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.”
Lots of people do hate Tiger for no good reason, but judging from that hairline, those numbers are decreasing every day.
Song of Solomon 4:2 “Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn, which came up from the washing; whereof everyone bears twins, and none is barren among them.”
Genesis 49:12 “His eyes shall be red with wine (fire in the eyes?), and teeth white with milk.”
Isaiah 41:15 “I have made thee as a new threshing vain, with teeth like a saw.”
Now we know why Tiger’s teeth are so big, white, and bright.
Haggai 2: “The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.”
Isaiah 60:9 “bring thy sons from far, their silver and gold with them, unto the name the Lord our God.”
Here the Bible defends Tiger for accepting all of that endorsement money.
Isaiah 7:15 “Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.”
Tiger’s love of fast food is now explained.
Jeremiah 23:19-20 “Behold the whirlwind of the Lord’s indignation shall come forth, and a tempest shall break out and come upon the head of the wicked (slice?).”
Ezeckiel 13:13 “Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger,”
For those who are bothered by Tiger’s temper, the Bible offers an explaination.
Ezechiel 31:2-9 “Son of man, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his people: To whom art thou like in greatness?”
Ezechiel’s detailed/longwinded answer is that the Son of man is as great as robust forest, or “Woods.”
Isaiah 41:18 “I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.”
Apparently Isaiah believes that many fertile golf courses will be built because of Tiger, or perhaps that He will become a course designer himself.
Ecclesiastes 1:6 “The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to HIS circuits.”
Ezekiel 12:14 “And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his bands;”
Jeremiah 30:23 “See, the storm of the LORD will burst out in wrath, a driving wind swirling down on the heads of the wicked”
Mark 4:39,41 “And he arose, and rebuked the wind, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.” “And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
Tiger is a master at sensing and calculating the forces of nature, especially the wind, which seems to die down quite often when he is playing.
The Lost Prophecy of “Holen Oneus”
Recently, in a discovery that was largely ignored by the “liberal” media, some astonishing scrolls were found deep within a cave along the rocky coastline of Scotland. Archeologists have dated the remarkably preserved writings to the early 1800s around the time the game of golf began. Most scholars have shrugged off these works as the irrelevant ramblings of an ancient caddie named Holen Oneus. But we at the First Church of Tiger Woods believe that a closer inspection of this sacred document shows this Holen Oneus to be perhaps the greatest prophet man has ever known. We invite you to read his words and decide for yourself.
IN the Empire of milk and Honey, in the land of the sun, near the gates of the city of angels, during the time of the bear with the golden coat….There shall be born a boy.
This boy shall be of the blood of the east and the west, and his face shall be formed by the golden brown residue from a melting pot of many separate tribes. The child shall take the common name of the leopard and shall share its grace, speed and strength. His sir name shall be both from the trees that make up the forest and the tools of the boy’s craft.
The boy who takes this name shall learn at the feet of his Father, who shall be an honored warrior and bare the face of the one known as yoda. The child shall wield his father’s battle sticks with such prowess as to make his elders take notice. At the age of two the boy and his father shall visit three noted men of humor who shall be astonished and humbled by the boy’s talents. The father shall boast wildly of his boy and be mocked by those of weak faith. But those who scorn him shall not feel his wrath, but only be forced to feast on THE crow.
This man-child shall conquer all who attempt to challenge him. Three times he will hoist the silver meant for boys. Three times more shall he drink from the cup of the men who do battle without payment. A bearded white Knight from the northwest shall Then shower the man-child with great riches and together they shall build an empire marked with a swoosh.
As the boy becomes a man he shall astound all who witness his powers and he shall know more riches, fame and glory than any man who had ever come before. The chosen one shall vanquish and demoralize those who were previously arrogant and he shall force the scribes to use up all their words. He shall court the woman whose name shall provide a hint of his true purpose.
Even the bear with the golden coat shall acknowledge that the Chosen one is greater than he and the boy shall show majestic mercy towards the bear.
As A man, the Chosen one shall have no apparent flaws, but for a mane that recedes like the ocean and teeth, which provide a blinding light. He shall keep the company of others who are also great with the ball, but even they shall bow down to his Authority. He and the Bearded white Knight shall sends pictures throughout the globe that shall amaze even those to whom awe does not flow naturally. As the calendar shows many zeros, He shall come to hold all the great silver all at once, but there shall still be those who will deny the “grand” nature of this triumph.
There shall come to pass a time when the true word of the chosen one will be spread by a speaker of many jobs and little note. He will be of good intentions and many years before his time. He shall be misunderstood and ridiculed, but he shall not be deterred. When word of this man’s work reaches the chosen one there shall be no denial, nor shall there be confirmation, for the time will not yet be right.
Unfortunately, the remainder of the prophecy of Holen Oneus was damaged in a fire and is not currently decipherable. However, we at the First Church of Tiger Woods believe that what we already DO have here is CLEARLY the true prophesy of coming of Tiger Woods.
Pastor and Family Crush David Duval in 18 hole Footjoy Match
The following is an article the Pastor has submitted to Maximum Golf Magazine…….
The Day We Were Better Than David Duval
I believe most people who enter sweepstakes are stupid. After all, the chances of winning are remote and entering is simply a waste of time and an invitation to receive more junk mail.
However, when my brother-in-law (who always enters these types of contests) happened to win the grand prize in the national Footjoy “Play against David Duval” sweepstakes, I had absolutely no problem accepting his offer to join him (along with my brother) in a three-man team contest against one of the world’s best players. The 18-hole match on the TPC Stadium course would be the culmination of a three-day trip to Ponte Vedra, Florida and would feature Footjoy’s lovable TV character “Sign Boy” as the scoreboard carrier.
For my brother-in-law (Brad Fouss), this confluence of events was an unimaginable dream come true. Just a few short years ago he had entered our family as a 40-handicapper, but after hitting more range balls than any married man with a toddler should ever be allowed to, he had earned our respect by whittling his way down to a handicap of about 18. In a world were justice is so rarely done, he truly deserved this trip. His choice of my brother and me to join him was based not only on our friendship, but probably more so on the fact that I am a “scratch” (more like a solid 2-3 right now) player who has played in two national amateur events and my brother (Bob Ziegler) is an erratic 8 handicapper who is capable of flashes of greatness.
While preparing for the big event we happened to run into PGA Tour star Brad Faxon a couple of weeks before we would play against Duval. Eager to find out what we could expect from Duval, whose reputation is that of someone who keeps to himself, I asked Faxon what he thought we were in for. He told me, “You should have a great time with ‘Sign Boy’.” Just to make sure I had not misunderstand his obvious omission, I asked if that meant David would not be into it. His wife quickly chimed in that as along as we did not engage David in conversation, everything would be just fine. Obviously, at this point, our expectations for the social aspects of the trip could not have been much lower.
When we got to Jacksonville for the event we also realized that we should not count on actually beating David Duval. As we got to know “Sign Boy” (a talented actor named Matt who is just as funny in person as he is in the commercials), he continually disabused us of any delusions of grandeur that we might have had. Quite simply, even though the three of us would be playing a scramble against Duval, no one gave us much of a chance and we began to buy into that premise (especially after our practice round at the Stadium course where I failed to break 80, Bob didn’t break 90 and Brad shot over 100).
The morning of the match I approached Jim Furyk on the driving range (many tour pros use that facility as there home course). I briefly explained to him about the contest and divulged our handicaps so that he might be able to give us some idea if we really had any hope of actually winning. He asked what tees we would be playing and, when I told him that we would all be hitting from the championship markers, he flatly predicted that we didn’t have a prayer.
When we finally met David we were all pleasantly surprised to find out that he was actually VERY nice and quite funny. When Brad nervously poked his opening drive far short of the fairway and tried to claim that the ball had gone about 175, Duval jokingly retorted, “about 175… minus the one.”
While Brad and Bob tried to adjust to the pressure of the situation (we had a small gallery following us for the first few holes) I managed to scratch us out two routine pars to start things off, while David easily birdied (while confidently noting that he was closer in two than we were in three) the par 5 second hole to take a one shot lead. On the third hole, David failed to get up and down from basically the same spot from which my brother and me almost holed our chips for birdie. We were tied and had the honor for the first time.
On the fourth hole the match changed forever. My brother, whose primary goal was to out drive Duval once, ripped his tee shot right down the middle about 280 yards. “Obviously” intimidated by Bob’s mighty blast, David then hit the type of shot that would have been surprisingly bad had it come from your average hacker and not from the 4th ranked player in the world who just six days earlier had teamed with Tiger Woods to win the World Cup. David’s drive was a high block that clipped an overhanging tree and splashed into a creek that was way right of the fairway. Suddenly the joking stopped. We were all stunned into silence.
We were no less shocked when David took what appeared to be a VERY disadvantageous drop (I didn’t have the heart to ask him what he was doing) and ripped a 3-wood from hardpan to a pin about 250 yards away. Unfortunately the ball only carried 242 and ended up in the water fronting the green. David ended up making seven and (after Brad made a nice approach and putt) we made a birdie three. We were suddenly up by 4 over David Duval!
On the next tee David showed his competitive side by slyly asking whether we were playing stroke play or match play. We had never considered that we might be playing match play because we knew it was an 18-hole match and because “Sign Boy” was keeping score with red and black numbers. It was determined that we were indeed playing stroke play, and, while David’s demeanor did not change, it was obvious that he actually did not want to lose to anybody, especially not three hacks like us.
At this point we all got as close as any human beings ever could to understanding what it must be like to be Tiger Woods: we were beating David Duval, we knew that it would be VERY difficult for us to lose, and he knew it too. I believe that we even got to see a little of the “Tiger effect” in action as David began to play in a manner (either because he didn’t really care or because he knew he was beat) that was inconsistent with his normal style. He tried to hit shots that were far too aggressive and, as we made par after par, our lead began to grow even larger.
On the par 5 11th both Bob and me actually out drove David when he popped up his tee shot while really going after one. However, the next time we took out the driver (on the long par 4 14th) we found out exactly why David is a tour pro and we are dreamers. After my partners goofed off on their tee shots (my brother even requesting David and “Sign Boy” to react in awe of his drive for the photographer) leaving me almost all alone against Duval, I gave it everything I had and ripped one down the middle. David then stepped up and stoked a drive with all the apparent effort of a Fred Couples practice swing. When we got down to our balls I was embarrassed to find that David’s drive (300 yards into the wind with almost no roll) had out distanced me by about 50 yards. When I asked David if that was really his ball all the way up there he said with a smile, “Yeah, I hit that pretty good, you hit yours like a girl!”
By the time we got to the famous island green 17th hole we were up by 7 shots and even Jean Van De Velde would have had a VERY difficult time finding a way to lose. Things got so bad that “Sign Boy” had actually (either accidentally or on purpose) fallen behind in how far over par (5) David really was. However, there was still time for plenty of dramatics. Brad, lacking much confidence after having hit 4 shots in the pond the day before, plopped a brand new sleeve of balls down next to his tee ball in morbid preparation for his inevitable shot in the water. Bob, who was so pumped up all day we though that he might implode, hit a gigantic pitching wedge to the very back of the island green and then holed the putt himself for a natural two. David was so caught off guard by my brother’s Tiger-like fist pump that he left his birdie putt short.
The 18th hole provided the perfect ending to our day in fantasyland. After I pounded a drive that barely kept up with David’s 3-wood, Brad holed a 40-foot curler that was so dead in the hole that I tackled him in celebration before the ball had actually dropped. We had beaten David Duval. No, actually, we had DESTROYED David Duval, 68-77.
After David graciously posed for more pictures and signed everything that everyone had requested, I took this rare opportunity to tell David about my “world-renown” website www.TigerWoodsisGod.com (where I am the Pastor of the First Church of Tiger Woods and which has been featured in these pages before). Like his good friend Tiger before him, David seemed rather (understandably) confused by the concept of an Internet church devoted to Tiger Woods. When I asked if he thought there was any chance that Tiger was indeed divine he flatly said, “No.” I was disappointed, but not surprised.
My best guess is that David Duval must hold onto the belief that Tiger is merely human if he is to have any chance to beat him. Clearly he is in a state of pragmatic denial. I totally understand and respect David’s desire to deny Tiger’s divinity, but after playing 18 holes with Duval I can tell you that, while he is much more friendly than advertised, HE is in fact most certainly (like everyone else on Tour futilely chasing Tiger) a mere mortal doomed to a career of pursuing second place.
Random Thoughts on 2000 U.S. Open from the Pastor
Tiger made a great move not going to that silly memorial service for Payne Stewart the day before the tournament began. While most of the American players were crying and hitting golf balls in to the Pacific Ocean (what was THAT all about?!), Tiger and his pal Mark O’Meara were out getting ready (mentally and physically) for the tournament. I do not believe that it is a coincidence that the American players (other than Tiger) played rather poorly. BTW, how ridiculous was it that Tiger got questioned/criticized for skipping the memorial service when no one had the politically incorrect gall to ask those who WENT why they did or whether they felt stupid hitting a golf ball into the ocean? And why didn’t anyone ask Sergio Garcia why he wore knickers during the first round when he barely even knew Payne Stewart?
–Another reason the American players seemed to play worse than the European players is that the Americans appear to be even MORE intimidated by Tiger than the those who don’t see him all the time. Quite simply, the American players KNOW that they can’t “hang” with Tiger and they come up limp when his new gets on top of the leaderboard. There seems to be something truly primal going on here. The are certain members of the animal kingdom whose most dominant male member of a particular group actually physically grows larger while the less dominant males of the group actually shrink once they are no longer the biggest guy on the block. Quite literally, the rest of the PGA Tour is shrinking in the face of Tiger’s dominance! To put it another way, it seems kind of like a man trying to have sex with a woman he knows used to date Tommy Lee or Shack O’Neil, he knows he won’t be able to measure up on his best day so he ends up coming up even “shorter” than normal. That is the definition of intimidation!
–Did anybody else feel it was strange the way the NBC handled Tiger’s blast of profanity after he hit the ball in the ocean on the 18th on Saturday morning? After hooking his tee shot into the Pacific Tiger clearly yelled, “God Damn it, you fucking prick!” Tiger was asked about this and he apologized (wouldn’t it have been great if he had said that he just wanted to hit HIS ball into the Pacific since the media wanted him to participate so badly in that memorial service and that he was just damning God for having taken Payne Stewart so soon?), but when NBC showed the tape a couple of times later in the day they omitted the audio portion and made no mention of it. Was Tiger’s profanity (shocking!) a story or not NBC? Make up your mind!
–The TV ratings were once again phenomenal for this US Open, dramatically outpacing even last year’s thrilling finish. Which is more incredible, that a man (maybe he’s a man) won the U.S. Open by 15 shots or that a golf telecast with ABSOLUTELY NO DRAMA had ratings comparable to the NBA finals? As few as four years ago I never thought I would live to see the day that either event could POSSIBLY happen.
–When Tiger won the 1997 Masters by 12 shots did you ever think that it was possible that he could top that performance (especially at a U.S. Open)? Well, suddenly the 1997 Masters doesn’t look quite so awesome anymore!
–Are you not now convinced that something greater is going on here with Tiger? Are you not now ready to officially convert to the First Church?
Why We’ll Take Tiger Over Jesus
Advantages of Tiger Over Jesus
– Jesus must take at least some responsibility for the Crusades, corrupt Popes, child-molesting Priests, evolution-denying Creationists, and phony Televangelists. Tiger must take responsibility for making an occasional triple bogie, not letting Fuzzy Zoeller off the hook sooner, making too much money, a couple of swing-change-induced slumps, and losing to Ed Fiori at the 1996 Quad City Classic.
– Since his own death, millions of people have died sometimes-gruesome deaths directly or indirectly because of Jesus. To this day, NO ONE is known to have died in ANY manner because of Tiger Woods.
– We have no idea EXACTLY when or where Jesus was born, and most of us incorrectly believe it was somewhere in Bethlehem (scholars are almost universally convinced it was in Nazareth). We KNOW that Tiger was born on December 30th, 1975 in Cypress, California.
– We have no audio, video, or even handwriting samples to prove that Jesus even existed. We have video of almost every major moment of Tiger’s life since he was born.
– Jesus lived in a time period in which the smartest living people thought that a flat earth was created in six days, had never heard of dinosaurs, DNA, dustmites or Denmark, had no clean water, indoor plumbing, or electricity, and who never even conceived of traveling on anything faster than a camel or communicating with anything better than calligraphy. Tiger lives in a nation and an age where (except in West Virginia and some parts of the deep south) even the dumbest people are far more advanced than that.
– Jesus was supposedly sent by God to spread his word and yet he lived at a time of no mass communication, meaning that not only would there be no reliable way to record his life, but that it would be at least 30 years after his DEATH before anyone even tried. Tiger’s life just happens to coincide with the worldwide mass communication revolution.
– Jesus was turned on by his followers in favor of Barabbas and was crucified. Tiger was turned on by his followers at the 1999 PGA Championship in favor of Sergio Garcia and won the tournament anyway.
– The Bible says that Jesus had crowds of up to 4-5,000 (not including women and children) following him as he preached. Tiger routinely draws that kind of audience when he plays a practice round at a regular Tour event.
– At 30 Jesus was totally unknown and penniless. At 30 Tiger is worth hundreds of millions of dollar, already opened up a 25 million dollar youth learning center, won 12 major championships and is far bigger in Asia than Jesus will ever be.
– From a purely objective perspective, exactly what did Jesus accomplish during his life? Sure, he changed some water into wine, fed a hungry crowd with a picnic basket, healed a few sick people, and created a small band of loyal and passionate supporters. Not bad, but as a carpenter from Nazareth he really wasn’t under a whole lot of pressure from expectations. Under more pressure than any athlete in the history of man, Tiger’s accomplishments already stack up favorably and he has MANY more followers than Jesus ever dreamed of having during his lifetime.
– Jesus’ ethnic heritage is of some debate and is almost certainly confined in its origin to the Middle East. Tiger is filled, literally, with the blood of the world. Tiger is one-quarter African, one-quarter Chinese, one-quarter Thai, one-eighth Caucasian, and one-eighth American Indian. He refers to himself as “Cablainasian.”
– Jesus’ earthy father (Joseph) stayed with his mother even though she told him she was pregnant by the Holy Ghost. Tiger’s parents were smart enough to split.
– Tiger’s peers (an arrogant and jaded group) seem a heck of a lot more impressed with him than Jesus’ peers ever were (at least during his life).
– Jesus washed the feet of his Apostles to show his humility and serventhood. Tiger caddied for his good friend Jerry Chang for 36 holes in 100 degree heat,washing his clubs and balls along the way (much more humbling for a man than just washing feet).
– Those closest to Jesus: a bunch of fishermen and a prostitute. Those closest to Tiger: Mark O’Meara, Michael Jordan, Ken Griffey, Jr., Charles Barkely, Steve Williams, and Elin Woods.
– Jesus was crucified and died a horrible death. Tiger was heavily criticized for changing his swing and then proved everyone (including the Pastor of the First Church of Tiger Woods) wrong.

Tiger (on the Fuzzy Zoeller incident): “I forgive, but I don’t forget.”

Tiger (on what he believes in): “I believe in what I can do with a golf ball.”
Tiger (on flaws of humanity): “I really don’t believe that there is such a thing as perfection, because we are human. We are all technically imperfect, so how can we ever achieve perfection?”
Tiger (on self love): “If you truly love yourself, then obviously everything will be okay.”
Tiger (on mental toughness): “I think your mind will carry you. The mind controls controls the body. So if the mind tells the body what to do, it’ll do it. It’s just a matter of getting the mind under control to make your body respind. Ans under the most extreme circumstances, when the competition is that fierce and that heightened and my concentration is that high, I feel like I can make things happen.”
Tiger (on golf): “That’s what golf is, the struggle with the internal DEMONS. That is why I love it.”
Tiger (on his success): “I’ve been very blessed.”

Testimonials Left Before Website Crashed
On July 12, 2001, our old server’s disk space maxed out and many of the dynamic features of the website were lost due to the system letting the new information write over the old.
Archived below, however, is a collection of messages from our Testimonial Message board before the crash:
Since April 1, 2000, members, potential converts, and detractors of the First Church of Tiger Woods have been able to visit www.TigerWoodsisGod.com and record their thoughts on the possibility of Tiger’s divinity. Here is a small sampling of some of the actual “testimonials” (complete with spelling/grammar errors) that have been left on the website. The Pastor wishes to note that those in the “True Believers” section seem to, in general, have a better grip on the English language than those in the “Non Believers” category.
The True Believers:
“And seeing the multitudes, Tiger went up into the green; saying, Blessed are the poor in swing, for theirs is the driving range; Blessed are those who slice, for they shall be looking for their ball; Blessed are the meek, for they know to buy Nike; Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for their scorecards shall be filled; Blessed are those who caddy, for I like them; Blessed are those with pure swing, for they will understand Me and my Word; Blessed are those under par, for they shall be called the Children of Tiger; and Blessed are you, when those revile you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice! and be exceedingly glad; for great is your reward on the green, for so persecuted they the prophets that came before you.” St. Augusta National 5:1-11, as found in the Last Testament
Just as I am, before the tee, asking simply for Tiger to show me the way, the truth, and the light….
After witnessing Tiger eat a banana during his Master’s win, I made this sacrament part of my own game. I peel and eat my banana at the turn, silently stating, “This is the body of the son, Tiger, and the father, Earl.” This practice has improved my handicap by five strokes and I recently received an IRS tax refund!
Tiger Woods could definitely beat God in a round of golf. I mean, I know God would be pretty tough and all…But Tiger won the U.S. Open by 15 strokes!
I ONCE PREYED TO HIS IMAGE AND ASKED THAT HIS GRACE SHINE UPON ME TO CURE MY CROOKED BACKBONE+DANDRUFF. I NOTICED A TEAR OF BLOOD DRIP DOWN FROM HIS PICTURE AND THEN ANOTHER UNTILL I FELT MY BACK LIFT ERECT+SCALP WAS ANEW ONCE MORE. aLL YE OF LITTLE FAITH,HEED MY CALL. BOW-DOWN AND WORSHIP HIM,Tiger,THE MAN-GOD !!!!!
YUP, I PRAY TO TIGER WOODS EVERY NITE BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP
AS I POINTED OUT TO MY FRIENDS ONLY GOD(TIGER) CAN HIT A 1 IRON OF THE DECK PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM! SHOW US THE WAY – Some translations of ancient texts quoted God as reflecting and lamenting, somewhat after the Creation, that “I didn’t have my ‘A’ game.” Is this merely coincidence?
As a resident of the latest sighting of our God who art named “Tiger” and among the latest to witness the act of His hand I must tell you I am truly blessed. While watching a practice round by the almighty, I gazed into my sixth malt beverage and LO! I saw the face of the savior! As he passed after a 220 yard 6 iron shot onto the green to within 3 feet of the sacred cup, I fell dizzy and disoriented. Stumbling as I left the holy confines of the the Southern Hills Country Club, His presence was felt as a low rumbling in my loins. Waking the next morning, my head pounded as I remembered the presence of the chosen one. I felt I must pass this along to the rest of our congregation. Look for his face, feel his power, relish in the aftereffects.
PS Aspirin seems to make his presence less obvious.
I know for sure that Tiger Woods is God! T’was a divine miracle; the Heavenly Father Tiger spoke to me in tongues one night and promised me eternal life, if only I would spend this life praising Him and his holy name! We pathetic humans are such unworthy sinners, and the Most-Holy Tiger is all-knowing, supernatural and perfect in every way. I so anxiously await my earthly death so that I will be able to be closer to God The Tiger Almighty.
Tiger said it, I Praise the lord. For I have seen his swing, and knowing that it was good, I emulated it as best as I could. And upon that awakening day, my shots became straight. And my scores went down. And my handicap went down 6 shots. And it was good.
It’s time to go to church. I have a 3:00 T time.
There was a time in my life that I was convinced that Eric Clapton was GOD due to his clearly devine mastery of the electric guitar. However he has not stood the test of time and has proven himself to be a false GOD. In my years I have followed the path of many pretenders but ever since I saw Tiger Woods hit his second shot on the par 4 number 8 at Spyglass Hill from deep in the trees, 212 yards away,drawing it 20 yards around a pine tree to within 8 feet, pin high, I knew he was clearly GOD incarnate. Just before he sunk the birdie putt Steve Stricker’s caddie was heard to say, and I quote “For those of you who witnessed that shot, believe me, it was as as if GOD had struck it. You have seen something truly special”. The foresome included Stricker, Kevin Costner and Bryant Gumble. Now post 2000 US Open those words were clearly prophetic.
In the Old Testament book of Regit Chapter 4, verses 3-7, which was removed by the King James commission in 1611, it clearly refers to a savior who will come from the masses in the Hebrew calendar year 2000. This just happens to be 1976 in the Caesarean calendar. Tiger Woods was born in 1976. Just a coincidence? I think not. Even more profound is that the book of Regit spelled backwards is TIGER!!!!!!
Our sect’s only fear is that the anti-Tiger, better known to laymen as David Duval (Devil/Duval/Devil/Duval…mmmmmm?) will tempt our savior in the desert of Palm Springs for 40 rounds and 40 bogeys.
Tiger, you inspire the h_ _ _ out of me!
I believe in Tiger since I touched is red shirt through my TVscreen in April 1997. I was a 12 handicap and became a scratch player!
Maybe if Tiger layed some hands on me I wouldn’t be a hacker anymore.
Tiger very well could be God! Tiger is real; all the other Gods I read and hear about are imaginary.
It is truly unjust that some heathens denounce the First Church as “a joke” or “the mad ramblings of an out to lunch pastor” I would like to confirm that Tiger is indeed God (he told me so in a dream) and to book my place at The Feast of Making the Cut.
As a native of the Augusta area and loyal supporter of the Masters, I can testify to seeing
Tiger feed the entire gallery with a single powerbar and a banana. He turned a single powerbar and a banana into enough food to feed 2,500 people. Tiger also told me that I would deny his name three times before his victory on Sunday.
Great cult, just don’t tell me we need to buy Nikes and await the return of the Hale-Bopp Comet.
I know for sure that Tiger Woods is God! T’was a divine miracle; the Heavenly Father Tiger spoke to me in tongues one night and promised me eternal life, if only I would spend this life praising Him and his holy name! We pathetic humans are such unworthy sinners, and the Most-Holy Tiger is all-knowing, supernatural and perfect in every way.

Testify, brothers and sisters!
I’m glad this website exists to corroborate my soon-to-be published research analysis of the Hebrew scriptures that clearly establishes Tiger’s divinity. When I cracked the cypher pattern of the original Hebrew texts to reveal the true meaning contained therein, I was shocked to discover the explicit forcasting of Tiger’s emergence. Your website has eased my fears of a public unwilling to accept such a premise.
After watching the 2000 PGA Championship, I now have no doubts that Tiger Woods is our Lord.
i believe it is said that tiger woods will be denied another two times by hal sutton, before the hen crows at dawn of an undetermined date. Tiger will forgive Hal, though.
When Tiger-God losses it is because he wants to let some loser/no name like Darren Clarke feed his family. HE knows that Clarke wont win another golf match, so he lets Clarke beat him. The sun has to shine on a dog’s ass ONCE in its life.
this site is not a joke! Tiger Woods is God. We’ll pray that he has mercy on your unbelieving soul.
Tiger Woods is the God. And that is that. I am sick and tired of hearing people who deny Him. I do not believe in any religion like Christianity and Buddaism. I really do not think they exist, the bible and all these religions are just “MADE UP.” These religions are made by humans not God. Matter of a fact there is no God until, Tiger Woods came. TIGER WOODS IS THE ONLY GOD WE HAVE ON the planet EARTH. please FU(KING remember that you ignorant humans!!!!!!!!!!
i don’t want those people who denies Him go to hell!!!!!
After seeing TIGER WOODS drain the last putt for birdie on the last hole, a tear came running down my eyes. He has proven me that he is not one of us. He is not mortal. He is the God. Not just the golf God. I have followed his action since thursday, never missed one single minute of the live golf action on TV. He is good that no words can ever, i mean ever describe what he has done. I feel so lucky and graceful that i can be alive and watch what has done to the world of golf and the world itself. He is absolutely amazing, i play his golf game, read his book, i have his poster on my bed room wall and pray to him before i go to sleep. Remember his greatness will not stop, it will just greater. To ignorant fools like Phil Mikelson and David Duval, I have something to say to you, “if you guys want to win a major the only chance is that TIGER WOODS does not sign on for the tournament. Ha hahahaha. Tiger Woods is the God. And i am nothing, i mean every one is nothing compare to TIGER. Even if its Micheal Jordan, even he prayed to TIGER WOODS.
So fu(k off, to those people who denies HIS HOLINESS!!!!!
Let us worship the true divinity, the true grace, the only god.
May his father protect him from bogeys and temptation till the end of time.
Alleluia!!!
May no green be too quick and no bunker too deep for the purpose of his glory
Alleluia!!!
In tiger we trust, he will show us the way.
Thank you my lord!!!
yeah, tiger is a gift from god, but i dunno about the rest…but, hey, if i get to spend my afterlife with him, then I BELIEVE!!
TIGER WOODS is without a doubt the greatest golfer ever. What he has done during his short time on earth is beyond imaginable. People, please don’t look at him as a normal human being who just play golf…. He is the God who touched many lives such as myself. When i feel down or i loose hope, i always pretend that i am TIGER WOODS, hoping i will be like him in some way, so i can go through the day. He is not only a great golfer, He is the God!!!!!!!!!
The Non Believers:
Even though tiger woods is a good golfer, i don’t think that gives you the right to say that he is God. tiger is anything but perfect. and to the pastor of this church, i think that you need to read the bible all over again because i think you missed a couple pages. by the way, tiger woods is buddist. if this site is a joke or not, really consider what you are doing. Jesus loves you.
You people are brainless nig worshippers and have your arse screwed on backwards. The only place I want to see this crossbreed monkey is either swinging from a tree or in high voltage testing to see how much voltage and current it takes to explode such an animal. God save us all.
tiger received his gift from the true God ….I just pray that he realizes this and makes a public statement to that proclaim his true Father in heavan and tigers belief in the Lord Jesus….this is a funnie site and I believe its only just that someone’s idea of a fun site….I’m not knocking tiger he’s ok but lusting after him and worshiping him ‘I don’t think so’……..I’d hate to see tiger being crucified and hanging on the cross….
you are sick freaks, and you really should get a life, god was not black, and i dont think god was sponsored by Nike, and you will be punished in the after life for compaing a GOLFER to god, WOW! wayne gretzky must be god, he scored 92 goals in a season, hail wayne! yea! get a life you morons.
tiger woods is not god Jack Nicklaus is. and no it is not a grand slam. all four in the same year is a slam. all you fools can call him god when he wins 21 majors.
U guys are bloody funny. this is hilarious. that game involving a tiny ball just takes some practice or talent. tiger woods is NOT god. U bunch of morons.
THIS IS THE MOST PROFANE AND BLASPHEMOUS SITE I HAVE EVER SEEN! 1ST COMMANDMENT OF THE LORD: “YOU SHALL HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME” EXODUS 20:3
MARK 3:29 “WHOEVER BLASPHEMES AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL NEVER BE FORGIVEN; HE IS GUILTY OF AN ETERNAL SIN.” THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE BLASPHEMING THE LORD SHOULD BE CAREFUL BECAUSE ‘JUST IN CASE’ THERE IS THE LORD (AND THERE IS) YOU WILL NOT BE FORGIVEN. EVEN IF THIS SITE IS A JOKE, IT IS BLASPHEMY AND WILL NOT BE FORGIVEN.
Tiger Woods is just HUMAN. a bipedal human lifeform with the good ability to hit a small white ball with a crooked stick in a hole…Whoopi Deeww!!!…no Godlike Abilites Needed there….just practice…DUH..
WAKE UP WORLD
I WONDER IF TIGER CAN PICK COTTON AS GOOD AS HE PICKS UP THOSE BIRDIES.
OF COURSE TIGER IS PROBABLY THE BEST GOLFER OF HIS TIME,BUT THOSE OF YOU WHO THINK HE IS GOD ARE A BUNCH OF MORONS.I CAN’T BELEIVE THIS TRASH I AM READING ON HERE.TRUST ME I CAME TO THIS SITE BY ACCIDENT,BECAUSE ANYONE WHO COMES HERE ON PURPOSE TO PRAISE TIGER HAS GOT TO HAVE SOME KIND OF BRAIN DAMAGE.
Anyone who comes to this page on purpose is a complete loser! Tiger Woods is a great golf player but give me a break he is anything but God. As far a everyone who idealizes him get a life. You have been caught up into the media hype. I guess if Woods starts to lose on a regular basis and a new golfer comes along and wins everything you will jump on his bandwagon.
HE’S NOT SO MUCH OF A “GOD” NOW, IS HE, WITH THE WAY HE’S BEEN PLAYING THIS YEAR??
Tiger CAN’T be God, cause God is make-believe, like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy!
But if there actually was a God, Tiger would be a great one (that would REALLY put them white, up-tight, christians in a state of shock! They’d have to start a new religion!!)
Tiger is just another stupid spook that can’t get a real job!!!!!!
TIGER IS THE BEST THING SINCE SWISS CHEESE!!! I am love with the man but HE IS NOT GOD! I consider myself to be one of his biggest fans but I think that the person who made this page is leaning towards delirious!
Over the past 3 days I had the honor of parking Tiger’s car while he stayed at an Oakbrook based hotel for the Western Open. The only tip he left me was “have a nice day”.
Gee thanks Tiger, you are the God.
Please let me be very honest. I truly believe that you are out of your
mind. My goodness, Tiger Woods doesn’t even know who you are and your
putting yourself in harms way. I understand that being a number one fan
is fun and important to you, but to call Tiger Woods, God. Is completely
CRAZY!!!!! Tiger Woods doesn’t even know you and you’re going to hell.
Man, this is the most sick and funny website that i’ve ever seen. I
don’t think that I could put my salvation on the line for a golfer.
you guys are very messed up in your belief! tiger woods is not god and this site is not true! tiger did not give you life and tiger cannot give you life eternal in heaven. tiger can also not sentence you to hell’s fires for unbelief[such as that which is in this site.]! repent people! tiger is a great golfer and a great guy. but i think he would be the first to deny this sinful website is true. GOD HELP YOU!!
Tiger Woods may be a God in Golfing History, but not the true God! You are whacked! Psycho! Can you say mental institution!? Well get familiar with it because it will soon be in your vocabulary! Helloooo, You need to read your BIBLE! Tiger Woods may be HOT and a Great Golfer but He is far from being GOD! So go pray to the one true God and repent and forg I use to love this site but now I know that TIGER IS NOT GOD. I’m going to tell you guys what you have to do to be saved. In ACTS 2:38 it say that you have to be baptized In JESUS name and recieve the holy ghost. and by the way there is ONE GOD and if any one dont belive that email me and I will prove to you that there is only one god. et this crap about Tiger Woods!
The person that made this site has really lost it. In the Ten Commandments it states that you shall not have any other gods before me meaning THE REAL GOD JESUS CHRIST NOT TIGER WOODS. This person has to get it right with the god(Jesus). And what kind of miracle can he do for you get a hole in one. Can he help you in problems with your family? I don’t think so. If you belive this guy is god you need help, So go to a real church.
Until your almighty Tiger feeds the entire gallery at the Masters with only two fish and five loaves of bread or turns tap water from the clubhouse into a martini, I think I’ll stick with Jesus.
Who ever believe that Tiger Woods is a god or even idolizes him is in for a big surprise.You people are going to be brought before the real God one day and if u believe this site your not going to be in heaven.And what give the guy that made this site the right to change God’s words around.You people can’t say this is a joke when he built a church for Tiger Woods.You people believe anything these days.Jesus died,Tiger woos never died.It says in the bible that when Jesus comes the whole world will know it.If Tiger Woods was God everyone would know it.you people really need God in your lives,the real God.All you people who don’t know God ur really missing something good.All u people who believe this site need to get to know God before you come face to face with him
love always in Christ,
Amanda
To those who beleive that Tiger is god, i really feel sorry for you. You have sined against the true 10 commandments, namley Comm. number 2. Thy shall not have any graven images. That means God is the one and onlgy god, you will not praise and beleive in anyone or anything else accept god. Failure to do so…. youll go to hell. Your all very dumb and you will end up in a place worse then you could ever imagine. And to those who said god gave man a sence of humor, your right but this is not humor. This is sinfule and you will be punished for this. That is all i have to say.
All of you who read this have a choice.
1.) You can shrugg it off and think that I am stupid or whatever your egotistical minds want to think.
Or
2.) You try to change your life and you life after death around. You can make a difference in how you feel and live by going to church and beleiving.
In The Lords Service,
Brett
Other Possibilities:
Ok, I know the real truth behind this situation and im here to explain it to you. Tiger is not God but yet is Satan here in human form. He seems to have the golf world at hand like lucifer takes on all wants humans have and just like satan his surrealism is an illusion. The true members of justice here are David Duval and Phil Mickelson who strive valiantly to dethrone the evil one from his conquest of domination. In time they will prevail and when they do they will own the records, remember 59 in bob hope?
Tiger CANNOT be God! How stupid can you be?? Anyone with 1/2 a brain knows that God is a FICTIONAL character invented by ignorant and superstitious peoples two thousand years ago.
The miracle of the transfiguration isn’t that the priest was able to turn the bread and wine into the ACTUAL body and blood of Jesus H. Christ, but, rather, that even though the priest WAS able to turn the bread and wine into the actual body and blood – IT STILL LOOKS LIKE BREAD AND WINE! Wub, wub, wub, wub!!! That’s all folks!!!
TIGER WOODS IS FROM THE YEAR 2720 HE IS HERE ON MISSION BUT DECIDED HE WOULD PLAY A BIT OF GOLF WHILE HE IS HERE. YOU SEE!! IN 2720 GOLF IS A WHOLE NEW BALL GAME. TIGER WOODS DOES NOT HAVE NORMAL CLUBS THAT WE HAVE TODAY BUT HE HAS CLUBS 700 YEARS AHEAD OF OUR TIME AND WHEN THE BALL IS IN MID AIR ALL HE HAS TO DO IS CLICK THE BUTTONS ON HIS GRIP ON THE CLUB AND THE BALL WILL LISTEN EXACTLY TO THE CLUBS. SO TIGER TELLS HIS BALL TO GO LEFT AND LAND AN INCH FROM THE HOLE .THE CLUB LISTENS AND SENDS THE MESSAGE TO HIS BALL
IN TIGERS ERA IN 2720 HE IS NOT EVEN THAT GOD HE IS RANKED 400 IN THE WORLD HERE HE IS JUST LIGHT YEARS AHEAD OF US AND THAT IS THE ILLUSION TO US. SO THEREFORE HE REALLY IS JUST FROM ANOTHER TIME ZONE WHERE GOLF IS A FAR EASIER GAME TO PLAY
SO GO HOME TIGER WOODS AND LET THE MAN WHO SHULD BE NUMBER ONE ERNIE ELS!!!!! BE NUMBER 1
SIGNED 4 HANDICAPPER IN SOUTH AFRICA
Tiger Woods is not God. He is Jesus’s brother sent anonymously to Earth to walk among men and see how we’ve progressed in 1000 years. Because of the anonymity thing, we will never see Tiger shoot 18 for 18 holes, just as I’ve never seen a really good set of Jesus’s kitchen cabinets. Anyway, it doesn’t matter, because when they write about him 300 years from now, it will be a 17, uphill, in a driving snowstorm.
Besides, if God him/herself came to earth, they would have to play the Senior Tour. What kind of challenge would it be winning one of *those* tournaments by 7 strokes?
Yep, definitely the *Son* of God.
Tiger Woods is not an actual deity–I dare say one exists–but what he is becoming is an icon that is worshipped by media, corporate America, and sports junkies such as myself. The result, Tiger has become a more common topic at the watercooler or the line at Burger King than a religious figure. In our tech-driven reality, we have become a congregation that meets in chat rooms and on Television to seek that emptiness and doubt in our own immortality. Simply put. . . Tiger Woods is becoming a God.
Tiger Woods is not God. He is not even an angel. He is not even a prophet. He is not even a robot. He is not even greater than Ghandi. Okay, maybe he is greater than Ghandi. What he is, is a freak genetic mutation that’s never come along before, probably an emergent species of man- Homo Golfiatus Sapien. Cower all golfers before him, you just been out-evolved. Hehe.
I have one question for all of you… What are the two colors you associate with thwe Lord of Darkness, SATAN? Obviously those two colors are red and black. What two colors does Tiger Woods wear every Sunday when he romps the field and collects his check? Black and red. Was this part of his contractual agreement with the Lord of Darkness? Is he required to display some symbolic representation of SATAN at the conclusion of each one of his conquests? Do people sign contracts with the devil? Probably not. I highly doubt it but think about the PGA Hall of Fame and fifty years from now when there will be dozens of photos of Tiger, holding all of his trophies, wearing black and red in every single one.
If you don’t want to know the truth then don’t read this posting. Tiger Woods is a great golfer but he has been promoted to dominance through Satanic spirits.
Have you ever noticed that if he misses a putt he will look up to the sky? At the end of a recent tournament he told the reporters that the Gods weren’t with him that day. He knows why his longest putts go in and why they don’t.
So what is the reason for Satan to care about Tiger Woods? He would much rather have your children dreaming and thinking about Tiger Woods then dreaming and thinking about Jesus Christ!!
Dare to believe!
Let me put it this way. If you don’t like Tiger Woods, you don’t like sunsets in the Caribbean and views of the Himalayas from Katmandu. If you think he’s boring, you think the Grand Canyon is a hole in the ground and the pyramids are just piles of stone. And if you want to see him lose, you also want to draw a mustache on the Mona Lisa and pave over the canals of Venice.
And I feel sorry for you.
Tiger is not God, but he’s not human, either.
He is actually a cybernetic organism, like the Terminator, living tissue over a metal alloy endo-skeleton, controlled by advanced hydraulics and micro-chips. Violating the time-space continuum, he has come here from the 25th century.
Apart from his super-human golfing ability, notice how he never shows any emotion, apart from a smile or pumping his fist, not much of a challenge for the programmers in the year 2499.
Even after wunning tha British Open, he was calm, cool and collected, much like Data from Star Trek.
There is not a single physical flaw on Tiger. Did you ever see how perfect his teeth are?
What’s more, has anyone ever seen him with a dog? I doubt it. That’s because animals can sense these things and would give him away.
His purposes in being here, whether good or evil, remain to be see.
Problems with Joanna:
Joanna Jagoda is butt ugly. Tiger is not God. God would not date a cross eyed poor Polish girl with bad teeth. He should buy her some cosmetic surgery.
Hey! I love Tiger…he’s an amazing player and fine as a mother…but have any of you seen his new hair…it’s blond…hey Tiger if you read this, baby boy you need to stick to ur true hair color (black) and ur true race, because the blond hair and blond girfriend ain’t kicken honey! Love you TIGER HONEY!!!!!
Tiger has done some amazing things with a golf club and ball throughout his life, but does that really mean he’s GOD!! And by the way, if he was “The Chosen One” couldn’t he have found a better mate? I mean, Joanna is not GOD like!!!
I agree with another guest ‘Carmen’ on why he can’t be God. He has that butt ugly girlfriend. No God of mine would date her–or now that I think about it maybe he is God, trying to teach us a lesson in tolerance and the acceptance of ugly people.
Thoughts on the Website/Pastor/First Church:
I thought this website was a joke but now Tiger keeps kicking @$$. I don’t know what to believe anymore.
This site is awesome. I have laughed for two hours straight. My spirit has been lifted. Amen
May the Lord save us from the rantings of racists and fascists. This site is intended for pure amusement, not the vitriol of frustrated miscreants. May Tiger continue in his winning ways and his charitable endeavors!
Found this website by chance .. I think Tiger is a great kid and wish him all the best. Have the people who responded negatively to this site no brains? Don’t they know humor, parody, and light-hearted FUN when they see it? Obviously not.
I think God is laughing, too. After all, He’s the one who gave Tiger his talent, and Tiger is only using the gifts God gave him. Go for it, Tiger!
The sad postings of those who neither understand nor appreciate good satire when they see it are depressing. Wake up, folks: recant your racist rantings, and just enjoy all of this in the good humour out of which it obviously arises! For heaven’s (and others’) sakes, lighten up!
I think Tiger worshippers should be called Woodies
cause they are a bunch of dicks.
This site is 2 funny. Tiger Woods may not be God, but surely he is at least on par (no pun intended) with one of the minor prophets. Some of my Christian brethren scare me with their condemnations of this site . . .don’t you guys have anything better to do? Go to a soup kitchen and witness . . . and get a sense of humor.
I DO NOT KNOW WHO MADE THIS SITE,BUT WHAT THEY NEED IS A REAL EXPERIENCE FROM THE LORD,JUST PRAY THAT YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY CROSSED THAT LINE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH….
I love Tiger Woods too but y’all need to get a life.
I’m a huge fan of Tiger’s and I think this guestbook is the best part of your website. I find it extremely Funny. However, I find the racial slurs that some of your guests leave a bit disturbing.
This site is the most hilarious thing I have ever seen on the web. Even though this is strictly for fun, some parts of this website can be a little convincing. As for everyone getting all upset because of this website…chill out!!
MEMO TO “THE PASTOR”: i agree that the people who take this site seriously are dumb. but the REAL idiot is you for being dumb enough for wasting all your time on this moronic website.
What a terrific site. I haven’t laughed so hard, out loud, in years! To those who take this site so seriously and are angry about it– hey, if your particular god is so real, why can’t he defend himself, and not rely on whiners like you? Praise the Lord and pass the nine iron!
Signed,
Tiger Wood’s Love Child
(PS- Does this make me special?)
I don’t know what to make of this. Are you guys brilliant or insane? I love Tiger as much as the next person, but I don’t think he’s GOD. Although, sometimes he does make me wonder.
This site is to golf (and religion) what the movie “Life of Brian” was to religion. Obviously some of you bone-headed, rabid Christian-types just DON’T GET IT! This is making fun of your beliefs, your organized religion, NOT God!!! You have no more true idea of what the exact nature of God is than anyone else on earth. It’s just too scary to even contemplate that though, isn’t it? In my opinion (and it is just that, an opinion) the God I believe in has a SENSE OF HUMOR and does not take himself seriously. So maybe all of you shouldn’t either. The next time you’re driving down the road in your mega-expensive car, with the little “I’m a good Christian” fish symbol on the back and the “God is my co-pilot” license tag, ask yourself what the teachings of Christ say about rich people who love their possessions more than they love God…Would you give up your money and possessions for your faith? HA! I didn’t think so. That makes you a hypocrite!
There is a distrubing correlation between detractors of this website and people whose sentences ramble on as if they are spewing forth misconceived metronomic mantra rather than considered and rational thought.
Great site. The people who think the site is blasphemous are the ones who need to get a life.
Good fun.
P.S. As proof of “His” intervention in life, take note that Greg Norman only went down hill in his game AFTER he had Bill Clinton as a house guest.
Why Tiger Woods is a Sex Symbol
One of the many aspects of organized religion that has always confused and frustrated the Pastor of the First Church of Tiger Woods is that most religions fail to embrace sexuality, and often (as in the case of the Pastor’s original faith, Catholicism) reject sexuality as being as being somehow evil, except in very restricted circumstances. After all, the Pastor reasons, if God really created us, and he chose sexuality as the way for us to continue that creative process (not to mention that fact that he made it feel SO good), then sexuality should be a positive aspect of any working notion of the Almighty.
Once again, the possible divinity of Tiger Woods fits perfectly with this philosophy. Unlike most other “Messiahs,” he is not only worshiped by millions, but he is also lusted after as well. The true magnitude of this reality became clear to the Pastor when his own sister (happily married with a two year old daughter) made it quite clear to her husband that she would leave him for Tiger in a heartbeat if she had the opportunity. She even went so far as to assure him that being known as the husband that got dumped for Tiger Woods would help him greatly in finding a new mate and that it would be a “win, win” situation for everyone involved.
Here are just a few of the many reasons (other than the fact that he is VERY rich, famous, and good looking) that Tiger is a legitimate sex symbol.
– He is longer and straighter than any other man has ever been.
– He has a very soft touch around the “hole.”
– He uses an extremely stiff “shaft.”
– He never has any problem getting it “up” fast and high.
– He seems to get it in the hole with very little effort.
– He never gets the “yips” with his “putter.”
– He is almost never short with his putter.
– He has no fear of success. When he does well on one “hole” he simply wants to do even better on the next.
– He has great endurance and seems to get better as the “round” goes along.
– He never “loses it” under pressure.
– He is not afraid to “take it deep,” or “go low.”
– He has already “played” most the world’s most beautiful “courses.”
– He does even better on the “challenging” courses than he does on the “easy” ones. In fact, he usually doesn’t even bother to play the easy ones.
– He usually returns to the courses on which he has played well in the past.
– He never fails to live up to the loftiest of expectations.
– People actually pay big money to play with his balls.
– Other rich, famous, usually powerful men seem to go literally limp when in his presence.
– He understands that his length and power mean nothing without control.
– He has as much control over his mind as he does his body.
– Chicks dig a guy who can make his club do anything he wants.
– When women cry out his name they may already be also moaning God’s as well.
– He is already the first “man” to have mastered the SECOND most mysterious endeavor for his gender (golf) and therefore would also present man’s greatest hope when it comes to unlocking the great mysteries of the MOST perplexing challenge they face (women).
