Look, setting aside that arguing a point with you is meaningless as I have doubts this is in 100% good faith, I mean, you do get that Martha is also an adulterer. Like, not even symbolically, the episode pretty explicitly shows her fucking multiple dudes not her husband. Like, yes, Blitzo is also in an adulterous relationship, but I never said he was the moral center of the show; Moxie, in an explicitly monogamous relationship with no cheating, is who I claimed is the moral center. I don't think the show entirely condemns Stella or Striker, either, as they are explicitly in the same position as I.M.P. and their client in that first episode. Striker's kind of a dick to Moxie, though.
As far as C.H.E.R.U.B. is concerned (favorite episode, by the way), the entire episode is just a take on the ol' cartoon gag of the Lil angel and Lil devil on a character's shoulder blown out to life sized, with the joke being that we're, by the nature of the show, sympathetic to the devils, and also the morality and ethics of the action under discussion are way more nuanced and complicated than these six idiots can deal with. (Also, Millie accusing the sheep angel of "tits havin'" is amazing.)
I also have no desire to refute the promotion of degeneracy, because, once again, duh, but also, that's like, part of the appeal? Are you sure you watched the show?
Even if I'm "pathologizing" the Christian viewpoint (and, well, he don't know me too well, do he?), you could be accused of doing the same to non-Christian viewpoints.
