I didnt see the interview, but I think its good that people share their stories so that other people who may feel like *insert issue here* only happens to them. I think people are beginning to trivialize marriage to some extent. People can profess to be of God, but all that means is that they are human and thus, will sin. I don't put anyone on a higher standard b/c then I would have to be there too, and I KNOW I can't do it. A good pastor is willing and able to admit his/her faults and pray for the strength and the willpower to over come them. Kirk may be a famous person and whatever, but he's still JUST a man, a father, a husband, a PERSON. His other "stuff" makes him no better nor worse than me.

I admire anyone who can be married, with children, in the spotlight and still make it work. I can admire people who say "I have XYZ issue and need help. I prayed and got this help in response."

So YAY Kirk for telling, YAY Tammi for sticking with and supporting him and YAY Oprah for sharing the story.
