Quote: I don't believe God or Satan will step in and make you do something.
Quote: but the decision to have affairs was yours. Not God's. Not Satan's. And not mine.
In sam's defense...she didn't say the devil made her do it. She was actually responding to the comment that I made that if you provide the opportunity satan will provide the temptation . She was tempted- she fell...it happens. We have all sinned and in God's eyes he doesn't count any one sin better or worse than another. Sin is sin...The problem is that WE put levels on sin. Well what you did has to be WORSE than this other thing, etc...And since you are not the one who had the A -obviously her sin is worse than any you have committed. I've said it before and I'll say it again- "an undetected weakness coupled with an unexpected opportunity and you could do anything as evil or wicked as anyone else has ever done." Anyone can fall. It COULD happen to you...it could have happened to you...
I guess once again it all comes down to forgiveness...
Sorry- I should probably mind my own business but I'm feeling really bitchy today and you sounded just like my H. Not your fault that I got all fired up! Hope you don't mind me butting in!

Never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience...
