Humans and the moral high ground

From Yahoo! Sports
Golfer Jesper Parnevik who introduced Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren expressed violence toward Woods stating he hopes she "uses a driver next time instead of the 3-iron." Maybe a good old fashioned stoning is in order.
We find it interesting that the fallacy in the human condition, making mistakes, is universal at least in your earthly existence. After all, you are only human. Muahaha!
But what is most interesting is this public chastisement of Woods and Parnevik appearing to exhibit a lofty moral higher ground, incapable of making a similar mistake. Perhaps. But one would think such a chastisement would be more sincere and appropriate in person and in private, not on the Golf Channel. Are not the basic concepts underlying your Earth religions forgiveness, compassion, atonement? Ah well, such is the human condition. What fun is it to build a human up, if you can't knock a human down?

You live in an ultra rich gated community.
It's 2:25am
You get in your Cadillac SUV and you pull out the driveway.
In the process you hit a fire hydrant and a tree in your neighbor's yard.
You wife breaks out a window with a golf club to pull you to safety (or so she says).
You're incoherent.
Police on the scene state your injuries are serious yet the hospital releases you with minor injuries.
