This was kind of my impression. He said a LOT for someone who had so little facts about a situation that could potentially impact lives of not only this man and woman but also their children and the rest of their families. '
The assumptions were huge and glaring and freaking stereotyping... He assumed that the man was the bread winner and provided everything for the wife who should have plenty of time to be a happy homemaker and sultry seductress... blech! How many women now must work to make bills and barely have time to get dinner on the table? In most families I know now if a man wants more or better sex he better be ready to do the dinner dishes and get the kids their baths.
Mostly my biggest issue is that we would even try to handle life's most trying problems, one's that stretch our faith to the limits, in a few minutes on a TV program, essentially for other's entertainment.... disgusting. When were the elders in our churches reduced to being sound-bites?
As far as adultry goes... forgive if you can, divorce if you can't, it's bible. I don't think counseling should have been over until they were at either one place or the other.
