I saw the news report on this last week and honestly for the people to say it's okay and that they are consenting adults please remember a few facts...
-He has known her since she was 14 since she was his student.
-He says he was just a teacher to her until she was 18 yet any after school activity she was part of he was the teacher for.
-They say nothing sexual started until she was 18 however other students have snapped pictures of her sitting on his lap during class, over 8,000 text messages where sent before her 18th birthday as well as hotel receipts.
-For trying to protect her daughter a mother was almost arrested.
-He left his wife and children, an eldest daughter one year younger than his 'girlfriend'.
Now if you are okay with student/teacher relationships turning into boyfriend/girlfriend relationships do not be surprised or mortified when your son or daughter starts sleeping with their teacher no matter the age! (In other words please have your heads examine!!)

A 41-year-old former teacher in California left his wife and kids -- and quit his job -- to be with his 18-year-old student, saying he knows that she's "the one." Are James Hooker and Jordan Powers in the right -- or is this all a big mistake?

Leviticus 18:22-23
22 “‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.
Romans 1:18-32
18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles. 24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. 26 Because of this,...

Amen. 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. 28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
I can quote the bible too!
Since you like this passage, here is God's punishment for the prostitution in Ezekiel 23:22-27
"22 “Therefore, Oholibah, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will stir up your lovers against you, those you turned away from in disgust, and I will bring them against you from every side— 23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, the men of Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, handsome young men, all of them governors and commanders, chariot officers and men of high rank, all mounted on horses. 24 They will come against you with weapons,[d] chariots and wagons and with a throng of people; they will take up positions against you on every side with large and small shields and with helmets. I will turn you over to them for punishment, and they will punish you according to their standards. 25 I will direct my jealous anger against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and your ears, and those of you who are left will fall by the sword. They will take away your sons and daughters, and those of you who are left will be consumed by fire. 26 They will also strip you of your clothes and take your fine jewelry. 27 So I will put a stop to the lewdness and prostitution you began in Egypt. You will not look on these things with longing or remember Egypt anymore."
What passage were you talking about for a "holy kiss?"

Take that bitch
Let's hope they will be happy in the future, I don't think this thing will last very long.
Recent statistics also show that this is a common trend in America anyway. In fairness, I don't know about the rest of the world though. I can only factually state that in America, more women are cheating on their husbands then men are cheating on their wives.
Random insults I see; the true evidence that you have nothing worth arguing.
Note that I was only observing that more women cheat on their husbands in modern America then men cheat on their wives. I never claimed that some men hadn't cheated on their wives or that all women cheat on their husbands. I was merely making a factual observation.
"It doesn't mean that we're sluts, it doesn't mean we're not marriage material"
-Anyone who cheats is a slut and is not marriage material for their lovers in my mind (that applies to men and women).
"If our needs aren't met, and it doesn't look like they're going to be, we find someone else that will meet them. Same reason guys do."
-Justify immorality all you want; it's still wrong.
