OH, I agree!!! I was taking a Philosophy class last semester and one of the philosophers, whose name escapes me now, dealt with moral vs. immoral behavior. He also introduced the idea that some moral behaviors are (stay with me here), brought about for immoral reasons...and in that case, aren't to be applauded. For example, if I decide that I do not want to commit fornication, not because from a biblical standpoint I feel that I am "Obeying God, and keeping to his principles", but because, I don't want to get pregnant, get an STD...then my actions are not considered moral behavior, because I am doing it for the wrong reasons. So, if this guy stopped his immoral behavor (adultery), because of the fact that he got caught, and NOT because he realized the immorality of his behavior and err of his ways, then he has not made a 'moral' decision, and therefore, isn't to be trusted.

In MY opinion!
