I wonder if any liberals will tell us that it's only sex and therefore nobody's business
I'm always still in trouble again

Polarity of ideology tends to sully everyone’s logic at some point. It’s part of being a tribal species. Don’t think you’re so immune.

No Christian conservatives I know of defend Trump’s infidelity. They’re drawing comparison with King David at most.

Fascinating that the only one who is willing to defend Trump's infidelity is the only liberal to have voted so far.

Originally posted by whag View PostDavid was punished by God for having multiple wives? I think he was punished for Bathsheba because that was adultery plus murder. I think the Bible indicates that God sanctioned David’s having sexual relations with his various wives and concubines.
Deut 17:15 Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the Lord thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.
16 But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the Lord hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.
17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold. (KJV)
God never intended for men to have multiple wives. He did put up with them doing it though, but nothing good ever came of it. David's own children turned against him and each other. David's reign was plagued with trouble because of his many wives. And Solomon was even worse.
So I guess the lesson is that while Trump can still be president, his infidelity is not approved, nor will any good come from it.
