Give up damage control: the Ashley Madison lesson

The hosts return to the Ashley Madison hack and argue the lesson for Christians is to abandon damage control entirely: the hacking group exposed users after the company refused to admit the site was 98% men, and the leaked list included Vatican, federal-government, and military email addresses. They say freedom comes from telling the whole truth — using King David and Bathsheba as the biblical pattern (his real damage control came before Nathan's confrontation, when he had the husband killed; after the confrontation he wept and repented) — and cite Christian YouTube vloggers Sam and Nia as a modern example of owning sin without buck-passing. The chapter closes with a comic detour into married life: suspicious late-night office hours, ketchup stored in the fridge door, peanut butter, and why starting over is not worth it.
