CyberGuy Posted January 28, 2007 Author Posted January 28, 2007 If this law is challenged it will be overturned as to harsh or cruel and unusual punishment. Once a man whose wife was having an affair found that the offending party can be imprisoned. He filed charged based on that law. The police did not want to file charged but he insisted. This law was brought to the attention of the state lawmakers and they quickly overturned the law before it became a sticky mess in the courts. I do not expect anyone to go to prison for aldultery in Michigan. Stats say that 50 percent of married people men and women have an affair. If this law was strictly enforced than half the population of michigan would soon be serving life terms in prison. Quote Riverside CA
Woody Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 Are you sure those stats apply to Michigan cyberguy ? We have Andrews University in Michigan. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
David Koot Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 We have Andrews University in Michigan. Are you suggesting that the Andrews crowd would be immune to marital unfaithfulness? Or lower stats? Hmmmmm . . . I wonder. Seems I heard awhile back, that Adventists have similar issues. Quote

David Koot Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 OH, come now! But your post referred to AU. Perhaps the stats show a different percentage within those hallowed halls. One would certainly hope so!! Although I still remember with shock and amazement an encounter I had with a woman in another SDA University, decades ago. She invited me to prayer meeting, with her Bible in hand, but then afterwards wanted to engage in activities which were not, erm, consistent with that Quite a jarring surprise indeed! One never knows. Quote
Parade Orange Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 uhh I mean 'lead' zephre.... No one will coment on the God Who saves us and inhabits our hearts if we are indeed christians would have reconcilliation thru frgiveness and restoration in all our relationships.. blah blah blah there need no for divorce after adultry... right? peeps? men? women? monkeys can comment also Quote All progress in the Spiritual Life is knowing and Loving GOD"there is non upon earth that I desire besides YOU" PS 73:25That perspective changes EVERYTHING-suffering and adversity are the means that makes us hungry for GOD. Disapointments will wean us away wordly occupations. Even sin(when repented of) becomes a mechanism to push us closer to HIM as we experience His Love and Forgiveness.
Moderators Nan Posted January 28, 2007 Moderators Posted January 28, 2007 I guess it takes two to want to restore a relationship - so if one does not, the Christian experience of the other can hardly be held up as somehow lacking. (been there, done that) Quote
