His speech is infuriating because a) he assumes Jesus is the only path to forgiveness and redemption as a matter of fact, b) belittles Buddhism as somehow inferior religion without knowing anything about its teachings on the matter of forgiveness and redemptions, and c) Hume claims he isn't proselytizing.

redemption.
You know, if Gov. Mark Sanford was Buddhist he would find forgiveness and redemption with less strings attached.
