Adultery, no double standard, is it wrong?
« on: October 29, 2004, 11:11:22 PM »
I think it is, guys who cheat on there women suck.


I have never nor would I ever.


It comes up here and then someone comes up with, well you guys do it to...(politics).

I do not care whose side you are on politically; cheating on your women is wrong and shows a lack of character.


Also is it important to you that your friend and or our political leaders refrain from this?

It is to me, that is my biggest problem with Clinton (or any other politico that cheats). It shows a lack of integrity I want my leaders to be men of honor and character. (I know I am dreaming)

Well sometimes life is complicated, and yea it is wrong and all. But that whole instinct to procreate can be a hell of a force.

Never say never.  Different strokes for different folks.  Whatever variation there is of human conduct, some society somewhere probably has tried it sometime.  

If there is any universal human tenet, it might boil down to:  Do no harm.  Which naturally some people immediately caveat to:  Well, as little as possible, anyway.

Guidelines like the Ten Commandments probably evolve primarily to keep the human race from killing itself off.  Hopefully based on common sense, proven survival practices, reasonably attainable consensus, and even divine guidance.

Halo
 Are you married or have a girl friend?

I am not talking about human society, just US mostly or western.


Would you want some guy ****ing your girl? Would she want you ****ing around? You want your leaders do those types of things?

A glance at just a few current book and movie titles is only the latest affirmation that cheating is rarely a good idea.

Really good ideas are birth control and marriage to bring only wanted children into the world and into a family that can provide for them.  Spreading seed indiscriminately is irresponsible.  

Cheating in anything means one partner has violated whatever agreement the two people have made.  Which nullifies that agreement.  

What happens afterward is up to the two partners to work out.

Cheat on your wife... ... lack of discipline, ethics, morals, commitment, respect.  People can invent all the rationalization in the world for cheating... to me it's just the prattling of the morally weak.

I aint saying it is right or "moral" but sins of the flesh are part of being human (otherwise we'd have not needed a savior). So, if the point here is to judge humans, well there's a quote in the Bible for that - think it say "never say never" or "so shall you judge, so shall you be judged" or somethin...

Clinton didn't cheat on a woman, he cheated on Hillary.

I always thought of her as a real life version of something you'd see in an episode of South Park...

On that same token, I think Clinton's was a clear case of a desperate guy pulling one of those 'he wanted to get caught' moves. Poor guy didn't know the tactic only would only make her stronger in the end.

Clinton would have gone down in the books as a pretty good president.

Now he will only go down as the one who got impeached for a blow job.

The dumb **** blew his legacy, pun intended.


Thats sad.

Well if you're going to get bent out of shape because some person fell into lust, stay away from history books - its laden with them - Popes, Presidents, kings, and prophets.

No ones says  its right, but most should understand how easy it is to cave to instinct.
