Sometimes a less than perfect marriage is better than no marriage.

If the church would just let these guys get married......what? Oh- not Catholic? Uh, never mind!

So you think adultery between adults of the opposite sex is analagous to priests RAPING LITTLE BOYS under their control AND BISHOPS, CARDINALS, AND POPES covering it up?????!!!!!!!!!

“Sometimes a less than perfect marriage is better than no marriage.”

Husband leaving the toilet seat open or wife over shooping is a less than perfect marriage.

Husband philandering or wife sleeping around is not a marriage at all. It is a fraud.

I give him credit for resigning. Now let’s see if he goes through repentance and a process of restoration...

Who has the courage to watch this message ... Are today's Christians able to hear and recieve a challenging and difficult, albeit "true", look at why Jesus Christ commanded "Render Unto Caesar" message ?

I have just never grasped how any affair can feel so good that a man would blow up his family, destroy his career, and distress thousands of people for it.

[ottbmare]

But seriously, see how this allows for wiping out a marriage and allowing “Biblical” remarriage? You were never married, if he cheated.

That's a very smart observation. Thanks for pointing that out.

You arent even worth the time.

I'm just gonna go with what you said.

[Rashputin]

Seems like there's been a lot of this lately, was there some sort of pheromone attack on mega-Church guys or what?

[WILLIALAL]

Not a little on the judgemental side are you?

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I assume that is in Tulsa, the church I found was in OKC. The Tulsa may be a branch of the OKC church but I don’t know.

I am sure he had to resign and was caught.

‘Mega’ churches are frauds, they are just large entertainment centers.

The devil has his ways of making evil acts attractive.

I won't argue with that a bit, it's just that for an awful lot of people it's the only exposure to anything even pretending to be Christian they get in our increasingly Godless society. Most such churches at the very least mention Christ being our Savior now and again although they preach "go along to get along" and not Christ and Him crucified as their real message. They're a money machine "Church of Nice" providing a theoretically Christian alternative to whatever society makes popular from Anorexic Babes to Queers for Christ but they're careful about their facade and maintain a Christian veneer that requires them to at least touch base with some traditional Christian beliefs.

So, for a very large number of people in this country the mega-church leaders are the benchmark of Christian behavior and morality for them. When they go bad, a lot of people start to lose what little faith in Christianity they have and go from very little exposure to anything like Christianity to no exposure to Christianity.

God really does work in mysterious ways, though. I've known several people who started their Christian journey in a mega-church and didn't think the way things were explained fit together very well. So, they began to study on their own and eventually saw the same thing, the mega-church is a money making entertainment enterprise and little else.

If there had never been the attraction to comfy theater seating, "Christian Rock" as it's called, and coffee served during the show, they say they'd have gone some other route. Eastern religion, no religion, different things.

At any rate, I totally agree. In fact, one of my favorite YouTube goodies makes that very point.

What is that in Proverbs, “It is better to live in the corner of the attic alone than in a mansion with a nagging spouse”

Only 3rd marriages have divorce rates that high.
