Falwell fans lol how do they look at a bible

Or Mormon bible thumpers

Or even Trump lol family man hahaha

Bible thumpers have never read the Bible and are the biggest cheaters of them all

And by the way biggest child abusers and child porn watchers this is a fact. Every day in this country some youth minister pastor or priest abuses kids.

Affairs from the religious crowd right up there with their daily food intake

Yet they want to control the rest of us

This should all end well right?

I mean look at Tennessee GOP Sexton mr religious lol 😂 liar

Research generally suggests a negative relationship between religiosity and infidelity; as one is more religious, his or her likelihood of infidelity decreases, and vice versa.

Both church attendance and biblical beliefs are associated with lower odds of self-reported infidelity.

I am not going to address the rest of your crappy, lying post.

You don’t have any links or sources to prove your derogatory and hostile statements.

There are religious people who are not nice people, and do bad things, but anti-theist liars who populate this board-like you, pp- are not nice either. You exhibit terrible behavior and nobody would want to be around you. You are just as bigoted and hateful as the worst example of a bigoted and hateful religious person.

You make wild, accusatory statements not backed up by facts, truth, or statistics. You add nothing to the discussion but lies and misinformation.

Regardless, non religious as a group are not stating their opinion on infidelity. It's legal in America so as a nation we have excused it. So the question is why do they feel forgiven so easily by this sin, not who will win the most infidelity award. Religious or Non Religious. The question is why is this something that religious people hide behind and excuse themselves so easily?

Religious people are human, affected by the same urges and desires as the non-religious. The difference is, that religious people can beg for forgiveness from God, freeing them from sin and allowing them to be unfaithful again.,

This is an embarrassing post.

I do think there is something about control in religion and then projection onto other people through affairs. I mean think about it. There is only so much someone can do to control others that isn't hidden. Affairs are hidden. They can't get angry. People will call them on this. They can't get violent. People will notice more if they do drugs to self cope. Affairs are allowed in the US and they aren't done in the public eye so they are the control of choice for those that can't control themselves well.

Sorry, they are the sin of choice for those that can't control themselves but want to in religion or those that can't control themselves and don't have standards. I think it's an easy sin to fall into that seems to get a lot more forgiveness than other sins.

I’m genuinely curious how she or anyone with a faith-based life reconciles that.

OP says faith-based. To me that means any religion that has a faith based approach.

[Anonymous]

For the record NP if you really are a NP, I've known several religious people who had affairs and wondered the same thing as OP. It is something we as religious are allowed to wonder about. You are not God. You feel threatened. That is all your ridiculous reaction is about. Religious people have affairs just like the have other sins. We are talking about them. If you didn't then this discussion is not about you.

That religious people rationalize their goodness in other areas as deserving of an affair or helping them somehow. I’m not sure how this religious person justifies how all of these religious affairs by higher ups happen.

No that’s not how it works, you’re completely wrong. To be forgiven you need to stop doing whatever it was that was a sin. You don’t get multiple passes. Even the people having affairs know this, even if they’re ignoring it.

I know it's wrong. I didn't have an affair. They obviously rationalize it somehow. That is the point of the discussion. To discuss the how they rationalize it.
