Besides which, the Bible he likes to quote also tells people not to practice acts of self righteousness before others. It's a grave sin, and he does it all the damn time. "Oh, the NCAA is breathing down my neck? Better make sure everyone knows I am taking water down to the Haitians. I also know the bible "inside and out"." Whatever. Dude is a slimeball.


21st century's approach to disparaging all Christians. I've heard this line of reasoning to call out any Christian who's made a mistake. Because they are outspoken in their Christianity and they make a mistake or mistakes, then they are sleaze balls.

Christ is sometimes referred to as Son of David. All David did was seduce a married woman and then have his husband killed. Is Christ's lineage also depraved and sleazy?

I don't like the approach to Christianity as "those who don't talk about Christ can behave without judgment and those who profess Christ will be publicly scorned for any and all mistakes".

The Hugh Freeze hatred here is largely an extension of him beating your teams. The other forms of hatred being shown are people that are vehemently in opposition to anyone of faith.

Eh, I don't think that is the point of what people are saying (I'm not saying it, FYI).

They are saying that Freeze is consistently self-righteous. David sinned with Bathsheeba, sinned with her husband's murder and sinned numerous other times, but each time he came to the Lord and asked for forgiveness, attempting to turn from his sin.

The point, I think, was that Freeze does this as habit, and it is not a sin in his past that he is actively trying to control (like an alcoholic trying to get sober or a fornicator attempting to be celibate).

Just my interpretation. And again, I don't agree with it, but I don't think it's "Freeze messed up once got him he can't be a Christian anymore".
