It's the glorification of cheating.
IT IS EVERYWHERE.
On tv, in music, in the magazines, all over the internet...
Heck they even have dating websites for cheating spouses.
It's something that a lot of my friends are dealing with, it's really hurting me to see them hurt.
Side chicks, side dudes, full blown affairs...
Uhg.
Expect to see a lot of threads that have to deal with cheating, affairs, illegitimate children, divorce, and spousal abuse.

Huh. The only thing that burns my backside is when I try to dry it off by backing up to our old wood stove. xd

If they're not truly in covenant with the Holy God of Israel, don't expect them to behave any differently. They're still in the flesh and do not have the Holy Spirit in them telling them to do otherwise. They haven't been born-again/regenerated to have new desires. Redirect that wrath to the covenant breakers inside the church (unless that's who you meant to begin with?). God will judge the world anyway. 1 Corinthians 5:12-13 (NIV)
12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.”[a]

1 Thessalonians 4:3-6 (NIV)
3 It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should learn to control your own body[a] in a way that is holy and honorable, 5 not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God; 6 and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister.[b] The Lord will punish all those who commit such sins, as we told you and warned you before.
Footnotes:
a. 1 Thessalonians 4:4 Or learn to live with your own wife; or learn to acquire a wife
b. 1 Thessalonians 4:6 The Greek word for brother or sister (adelphos) refers here to a believer, whether man or woman, as part of God’s family.
Colossians 3:5-10 (NIV)
5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.[a] 7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. 8 But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. 9 Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
