(Newser) – Mel Gibson's wife filed for divorce when she learned his Russian lover was pregnant, reports the Sun. Robyn Gibson "put up with Mel for years but when she found out" Oksana Grigorieva was telling friends she was expecting, "it was the last straw," said a friend. Gibson recently moved the singer and her 11-year-old son with actor Timothy Dalton into one of his California mansions. She talked to reporters recently, apparently sporting a baby bump. Gibson had no comment.

This and the Pushia thing have got some people worked up about religious hypocrisy, and others worked up about perceived 'religion bashing'. Whilst many of faith admit in public they are 'sinners', they often profess to or posture as being of some higher moral value than the rest of us. I can understand why there's the occasional harangue or giggle behind the hand when a religious person falls so far off their perch. Human flaw is a great leveller.

So that somehow lessens Mel's immorality smothered in hypocrisy?
