    I don't either, since this verse is not an excuse for sin, it is about salvation. On the divorce thread a woman is making excuses for her sins, trying to justify them by blaming others.

    I am the woman and who am I blaming? I know I made mistakes I never said I was perfect I never asked for justification I asked a question I am not blaming anyone for the mistakes I made what I am upset is how unforgiving people are on this board and in other places. I slept with another man --was I married, no I wasnt and I ended up pregnant I am not blaming anyone for that I made that decision and I will live with myself and I will be the best mom I can be to this baby. I am working on my life, I am not dating I have dove into the lives of my kids and taking care of them. I have joined a divorce support group and with God's help one day my heart will be healed from the hurt this marriage caused. As for my husband he walked on his family, everything that God blessed Him with. Me and the kids are the victims. I ask myself every night what the heck did I do to have my marriage fall apart..I stood by my husband and loved him and supported him throughout his military career but in the end he wanted someone else and it wasnt me. I prayed for my marriage for my husband nightly for over a year but in the end it was over now almost 6 months have passed and I am working on accepting it and moving on. So Donna you can think all you want to of me what a horrible person I am -- I am in fact a sinner and the only thing I was asking is why people who go through this have people that close their hearts and dont forgive when the other person is making an honest effort to change their life and your heart is too closed to care or to see it. I have a right to be on these boards and to be viewed with an open mind, thats how I view all of you with an open mind knowing that you and others are very close-minded. Salimander thanks for the verses I appreciate it and I am using them in my evening bible study tonight after the boys go to bed.

    your ex husband who was your husband at the time.

    your divorce was not final yet, yes you were married, and committed adultry.

    you have sought to justify your mistakes over and over, looking for a pat on the back and an it's ok what you did. You aren't going t get it from genuine serious christians.

    placing blame for your actions.

    you and the kids were the victims, then you had an affrair before your divorce was finalized, making just your kids the victims.

    If a person were making an honest effort they would not be placing blame on others, and looking to justify sin, or a pat on the back and people saying sin is ok. Which is what you have complained about several times on this board, that people won't coddle you and your adultry.

    Ok, since I am a man, I havent brought this up until now because i didnt want to sound biased towards women, or to sound like I am justifying your husband leaving you....but....now I must ask this question


    Do you think that its just a little bit possible that your "superwoman" attitude, might have discouraged him? [offensive language edited]

    Is it possible that, even a little bit, that YOU might have something to do with the divorce?

    I didnt have my superwoman attitude till we were already broken up. And then after doing this twice I decided enough is enough, I am not going to sit by and be the woman with her hands in her laps nodding her head at every stupid thing her husband put her through. When we were married I was the dutiful wife. I worked 40 hrs a week, came home, ran the house, paid the bills, did basically everything because he wouldnt, all because he asked. I ask myself 200 times a day why he is with her. [offensive language deleted]

    Using crude street terms for female body parts is quite nasty.

    I don't care , what I do care about is crude street language for body parts being used on this christian board. this is foul language. Your flippant attitude "whatever" means you don't mind using foul laungage.

    maybe...just maybe...since this thread has deteriorated into insults, name-calling, and hurt feelings...it would be worth it for all of us to let it die a natural death??

    Did you(here), or do you, use street slang for female body parts? Because this is foul and disrespectful of women. Not to mention, street slang for personal body parts is considered cussing. So now we're going to allow cussing on the BB?
