Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his wife Megan Kerrigan Byron’s neighbors find his alleged infidelity “disgusting” but believe the family deserves “privacy” as they navigate overnight fame and heartbreak.

Those who live in the pair’s Kennebunk, Maine, neighborhood told the Daily Mail Thursday — just over a week after Andy’s alleged affair with an employee was exposed at a Coldplay concert — that “everyone has seen” the viral “kiss cam” video.

“The family do not want to talk about it,” one angry local explained before asking the outlet to leave the exclusive street next to the Webhannet Golf Club.

According to the Daily Mail, Megan fled the duo’s $1.4 million home in Northborough, Mass., and has been hiding out at their $2.4 million Maine mansion while holding crisis talks about her marriage.

Multiple family members were seen going in and out of the four-bedroom, four-bathroom, 4,169-square-foot property over the weekend, including her older sister, Maura, per the outlet.

It’s unclear whether Andy, 50, came to speak to Megan, also 50, following the incident.

Ain’t nobody’s business but their own

Exactly, why anybody is interested in this story baffles me.

But then, I have a life.

Well, poopie.
So much for my Carl Sagan jokes...

Since lust in one’s heart is adultery, everyone has broken their marital vow.

It seems to me this type of statement tends to minimize and normalize the actual physical adultery, that for which the Old Testament Law proscribed the death penalty. Although the New Testament extends the scope of adultery to include lust it does not abrogate the Law.

I understand the New Testament teaching by way of this explanation.

James 1:12-16
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any
But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
Do not err, my beloved brethren.

I tired of academics quickly. It only took 7 years and I went into business where I could make some money while listening to whiny clients. 😉

Not at all.

Physical acts are punishable by law and by God. But sins of the mind and heart—though hidden—are judged by God alone, which is far more serious.

Jesus wasn’t minimizing sin; He was exposing its deeper root—our deeper rot. The rot that infects the soul. The infection we humans brought into the world—the source of all its evil.

And if someone asks, “But what about demonic evil?”

Perhaps we invited them in. In fact, we may have caused their fall by our own corruption—“the daughters of men were beautiful” (Genesis 6).

Scripture hints they fell not only from pride, but from desire for what they saw in us. Either way, it was our sin that opened the door—and keeps opening the door into human souls.

No, physical acts are the culmination of the heart's conception. "Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death."

It is not less serious, but more, as there is then no remedy in that it has occurred. What is in the heart may still be remedied, avoided (flushed down the toilet as it were), and not have the consequence of death. Look at the scourge of homosexuality within the Church that led to the great scandals. The sins of the heart lead to sins in the flesh. One can hardly say the latter are less serious than the former.

Isn’t that where the Bush family had a summer home?

That's the next town over - Kennebunkport, Maine. The Bush family still has a *compound* on exclusive Walker Point in Kennebunkport (named after one of their ancestors).

Every few years a new house is added to this compound. Jeb has a fairly big new home at the Bush family compound in K-Port. I don't know specifically who lives in the big old mansion there now that George and Barbara Bush are deceased.

I drive thru there on occasion. They do a fantastic job decorating the homes there for Halloween. Big beautiful old homes.

Same here, and I've seen those gorgeous old homes decorated fabulously for Halloween as well.

Do the Byrons own one of those particular older homes in Kennebunk?
