Interesting . . .

Remember the blog about infidelity that I wrote for The Huffington Post? I had hopes that it would become a lively discussion. Alas, it only warranted five comments, two of which were mine. Ah well, not the first time I thought a blog/article would yield more attention than it did.

Until today that is, someone reposted the blog at Alternet.org, and the viewers have a lot to say. There are 45 comments—and counting. Some are good. Some are bad. Someone suggests I should be shot. It’s pretty sweet. The humanness of humanity really comes out in the comments section doesn’t it?

Here’s the thing: Whoever reposted this changed my headline from “Infidelity: As it was, is, and always will be” to “Relax: Adultery is Not the Big of a Deal.” That’s a serious shift. It changes the entire concept of what I wrote. My words weren’t changed at all, but that headline has people coming in angry already—and understandably.
