Has anyone else here ever have like a friends spouse or just someone you know from church or the community spouse try to spark up an affair with you?
This happened to me several years ago with a woman in my church, her husband started trolling for strange MY way on facebook.
My gut response was to publically shame him on facebook, but instead I just sent it all right to his wife. Anyone else ever tattle when it happened?
Did the person turn on you? In my case this woman just got mad at ME. 
I'll still always tattle though.
Thankfully I've never had a friends spouse do this but if it ever happens.. ..I'm telling.
Would you get mad at your friend if they told you your spouse came onto them?
This is weird, I was watching an old film last night with Harrison Ford, Witness, it was called.
I found myself wondering about "shunning" in a community of faith, as a retribution to someone for some expository act, a moral or immoral act, or simple social conflagration.
I know, I know, but bear with me...my thought processes demanded I alight at the very meaning of community, and the very essence of religion.
While never actually finding God, I think in our attempts we actually all do. For what is God but a community of trust in the failure of individualism.
It does not work in modernity, unless we start emailing each other with pictures of stain glass windows. Indeed, I believe that was what Bill Gates prophesied for his Windows based operating system at its immaculate conception.
Religion is mere sectarianism on a global scale, community is by its essence, paradoxically parochial.
To be shunned is to be ignored, to be ignored is to be marginalised, to be marginalised creates hate and hate creates division.
Whatever God you worship, that God does not have a Facebook account.
