Ted,
I think both are a sin.......but the bigger sin is hypocrisy.
OK, but think about the 37 million others (wow, that's a huge number) who have been exposed as "cheaters." (Even if the majority of the accounts are faked, duplicates, or otherwise illegitimate, we're still talking millions upon millions of people here.)

Should their marital infidelities be exposed just because they were stupid enough to give the web site information that can identify who they are? Or should only those who are Christians be exposed as cheaters? I doubt you can tell from the data what their religion is. Of course, I don't think the hacktivists really care.

That's the problem with asserting that Clinton's infidelities should not have been made public, that it was a "private matter" between him and his wife. If you believe that, then you should also be opposed to haphazardly exposing the users of AshleyMadison.com, since the infidelities of millions of people should have been kept private under that standard.

Otherwise, you yourself would be a hypocrite. And remember, to you hypocrisy is a bigger sin than cheating on your wife.

No hypocrisy? Accused Child Molester and Obama Bundler to Host VIP Democratic Party Fundraiser

Bean was arrested for sexual abuse of a minor last year. Yet he is still hosting Democratic party fundraisers. The only way there is no hypocrisy here is if the Democratic party is officially OKAY with sex abuse of minors.

Black Man Whose Son Was Killed by White Police Officer Rejects ‘Black Lives Matter,’ Wants No Revenge

21Aug, 2015by Warner Todd Huston

Adrian Taylor, whose son Christian was shot and killed by a rookie officer in Arlington, Texas, is rejecting representatives of “black lives matter” who want to use his son’s death to push their activist cause. Taylor says that he is praying for the officer and his family, wants no revenge, and does not want his son’s death to spur riots and hate.



By all accounts Christian Taylor, 19, was a pretty good kid. But on the night of August 7 he was caught breaking into a car dealership and was confronted by police officer Brad Miller, a first year rookie. The officer said the young man, a college football player, charged at him and so he fired his gun killing the suspect.

The department fired Officer Miller for not waiting for back up and for going into the car dealership alone.

Since then many in the so-called “black lives matter” crew have been trying to get the teen’s family to lend their son’s death for their cause.

But Mr. Taylor says no way, he doesn’t want his son’s death used to stir hatred…

If anything, Taylor may teach all of us a thing or two about grace, compassion and, most important, not rushing to judgment in situations that aren’t always black and white.

He expressed sorrow for the white officer who shot his son, saying he refuses to turn the shooting into a racial issue.

“There’s no winner in this,” Taylor said. “We’re both losers. I feel for him and I pray for him.”

And while social justice activists in the Black Lives Matter movement may hang ex-Officer Brad Miller’s firing on their mantel like a trophy, Taylor refuses to consider it a victory for anyone, let alone his family.

“People ask me if I’m happy about the decision,” he said. “No, I’m not happy. No matter the decision, I can’t get my son back. I’ll never see him again.”

The hurt is deep, and it cuts both ways, he said, for both the Taylor and Miller families.

“The officer lost his job, his dream,” Taylor said. “But more than that, a life was lost. And both of our lives were changed.”

This is such a sad time for all involved, but Taylor deserves extra credit for his compassionate and Christian response to this tragedy.
