Do you know that for a fact? Would you nail yourself to a cross on that one?

Its one or the other. Either he lied or he really is dumb enough to believe that a woman wearing a bikini in front of another man is fornication. Either way its some pretty heavy stuff. By the way I wouldn't nail myself to cross for anything. That's just crazy talk... would you?

Did someone say who the man was that she was wearing a bikini in front of?

Well, no, I wouldn't nail myself to a cross. I couldn't think of a more dramatic way to ask whether you would stand on your opinion or belief with your own life. LOL!

The paper's said 'a friend's husband'.

Which sounds to me like she was swimming with her friend, and the husband was there.

I read that he "found" her. That means he wasn't, initially, present.

Not that husband, the other husband.

I'm confused. Was the man, at the pool, a friend of her husbands?

Because without naming the man, it almost reminds me of the woman caught in adultery-"in the very act", in the Bible. The woman was brought before Jesus and accused. They caught her in bed in adultery. What, did they lose the man in the sheets? Forget him in their zeal to stone her?

For the record, no I don't think that this woman was in adultery or fornication for wearing a bikini. We don't know who the man was or his motive for being there. He could have been a relative, or he could have walked up while she and her friend were at a private backyard pool for a girls' day. That happened to me once, but believe me, it wasn't fornication. He didn't go to a UPC. He walked up and started chatting, not realizing that he wasn't supposed to be there. What was more immodest? Staying in the water or standing up and getting out, giving him a full view?
