Adulterer dating website: Most of our members our Christians — ‘it is incredibly ironic’
A dating website that helps people in the United Kingdom engage in extramarital affairs says that most of its members are of the Christian faith.
The website IllicitEncounters.com said there are more than ten Christian adulterers for every one atheist.
“It’s incredibly ironic that atheists are more faithful than Christians,” Claire Page, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters, said. “It proves the argument that what some people perceive as immoral – like adultery – isn’t increased by the lack of spiritual guidance. If the only reason you don’t kill someone, or steal, or covet thy neighbor’s wife, is because it tells you not to in the Bible, to me, that’s a lot more worrying.”
“To me, that says you can’t think for yourself what is right and wrong. Besides, for us and our 987,000 customers, we don’t look at affairs like most people do. There are many reasons people have affairs, it’s not as black and white as some people think.”
The website conducted a survey of its members, and found only 6 percent described themselves as atheists, while 64 percent classified themselves as Christian.

So conceited.
the most racist, homophobic or just plain ass mean people are people who claim to be christians. In my 66 years this is what I've found anyway. So many use their religion, bible in particular to explain away their own shortcomings. I'm atheist and like it that way for one thing I don't have something, bible, to use to explain my shortcomings. I do it or say it I own it. What ever the IT is.
John Bradshaw came up with it 20 some years ago.
He basically said that there are 4 types of families which produce the most dysfunctional people.
2 types are "repressed families"
fundamental religious,
and military families ( not ALL, but "majority"
...think The Great Santini
Where external unyielding rules are applied
2 types are "chaotic":
families where a parent has a serious mental illness ( think manic depressive)
families of active addicts/alcoholics.
where chaotic, unpredictable erratic behaviors are the norm
Essentially they are families where emotional needs conflict with external beliefs.
Thus you get the over the top reaction to gays from the repressed people, etc.
I saw those patterns over and over again with my clients.
and the fear of having to join AA kept me from quitting for years. Finally my Daughter in Law asked me if when her baby, my grand daughter was born if maybe I wouldn't be drinking around her. Boom! I gave that some thought went to the liquor store bought a 1/2 pint of my favorite drink and promptly put it high up on the shelf in the dinning/kitchen area where it was front and center and easy for me and only me to get too, cause I'm taller than the others, you know just in case I had to have it later. Spent three days sweating the poison out of my body and here I am 8 years later stone cold sober as I was when I was 8 years old. No AA, no crying, no screaming, just sober. Guess what I love my sobriety way more than I liked my old drunk ass.
That my friends is how I quit being a drunk.
Why am I telling you all this, I have no idea but maybe it's because if you want to do something you can do it without a bunch of fanfare, hand holding or crying on each others shoulders. You want to do it, JUST DO IT. Funny that because that is one of the things my grand daughter says to me sometimes, papa just do it. lIke when we're in the pool, I'm afraid of water so I can't just swim around under it like a fish like she can and when I say something like wow I wish I could do that she'll say papa just do it. I did it, I quit drinking and gave me hopefully many more years to live and her a papa to get to know.
No long term committments, just dates for....well....you know.
I would like to see him walk into a fundy church and watch heads explode!
