More than a third of divorce filings contain the word Facebook

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg changed his status to "married" Saturday and received over one million "likes" from his followers.

But the site he founded isn't always so marriage-friendly. In fact, lawyers say the social network contributes to an increasing number of marriage breakups.

More than a third of divorce filings last year contained the word Facebook, according to a survey by Divorce Online, a UK-based legal services firm.

"Affairs happen with a lightning speed on Facebook," says K. Jason Krafsky, who authored the book "Facebook and Your Marriage""

I guess adultery happens with the same kind of "lightening speed" on Facebook too.

The solution is grace;
Ro 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
