alien invasion II

[hoosiermama]

In the past few days, I've heard from my friend who is the wife of H's pastor. She told me that H seems happy, that he seems indeed to have moved on to a different life. He has returned to weekly attendance at church, and continues to serve on a few different committees there. I mentioned the recent development with OW and D; she agreed that it was too soon, and that I should have been consulted, and that like many divorced dads he seems more than willing to ignore his child's mother.

This seems really bizarre to me; honestly, I told her about OW and D in the hopes that it would concern her enough to be addressed in the context of the church community, especially since he is in somewhat of a leadership role. However, I don't get the impression that anything will change, and that generally folks are pleased that he is happy again. NOw, I was fairly visible there, wanting to be supportive of his spiritual aspirations (yeah, right). They know me; they know D. Why is all of this okay with the community and its leadership? I mean, I'm kinda thinking that if this was going on with Jesus physically present, he might not be quite so accepting without any challenges. Sometimes I swear the whole world has gone mad.
