Replies to '01/25 Secrets in the Suburbs'

Last Saturday night my wife and I went to dinner with another couple in the lifestyle. We ate, and danced and then went to their house. He is a retired, decorated veteran who was in the US Air Force for 25 years and earned a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star.

While the ladies were playing with each other he and I shot some pool and talked.

When he was 20 he did a year in Viet Nam as a sniper sitting at the edge of air bases making sure no unfriendly folks snuck onto the air base. He killed about 100 enemy soldiers and was told by his Chaplin that God would forgive him because he was under orders to kill by the President of these United States.

He laughed long and hard when I told him that some people on the Dr Phil board thought he and I  would be going to Hell for having sex with each others wife.

He figures he has a lot more to important issues to talk to God about.

So the question is was the Chaplin wrong about breaking the *not kill* commandment and still be able to get God to forgive? Or will he be forgiven for the killings and then sent to Hell for having consensual sex with my 54 year old wife, he is 58
