The website www.maritalaffair.co.uk is the subject of a campaign by church organisations and indeed by a growing Facebook group who are seeking to shut it down or stop it advertising, at least on billboards.
Regular readers of this Blog will know that I am a strong supporter of the insitution of marriage, although I do accept that relationships sometimes end. So, what do I make of this?
First, let's remember that an affair is a nice, maybe exciting, word for "sexual intercourse when you know you shouldn't"! It is also adultery one of the grounds for divorce.
My opinion is that the website is just the putting online of something that has gone on for hundreds of years. Surely it is the people who have affairs who have the issue to answer and not the website?
