Adultery could mean life, court finds

REALLY? The liberal agenda had me convinced that we have always been liberal . . .

Oh, I see, so the New Testament now supercedes the Old ?

Yep.

 

The Bible was and is serious about both.

I am serious about the Word of God, as I pray that you are as well, so where were you expecting the OP to go?

 

They do...it's called alimony.

Oh, you mean criminal, as in jail time criminal?

My opinion is, if you are going to cheat on someone, you should at least have the decency to divorce them first. I detest divorce, but someone who secretly cheats on their spouse while they are still married is doubly detestable, imo.

At least a person who divorces first is honest about the lack of love. A cheater who is married shows a complete lack of love, character, and respect for their spouse.

After telling me about a mutual friend who found his wife cheating on him, a friend of mine, a preacher (as was the one who was cheated on), stated to me, "Why can't people just live right?" Is it really so hard to not cheat on someone you once claimed to love?

 

I guess I forgot to really answer the question.

I think the person who was cheated on ought to be able to give the cheater 10 lashes, at least.

Of course, that will never float in this country.

Other than that act, as a little retribution and therapy for the cheated, I think money is the best way to deal with cheaters. Hit them where it hurts.

 

Chill out, man. Can't you read a joke when you see one ?
I'm not a very prolific user of those yellow, round, smilin', wavin' faces.
Seriously and secularly speaking, adultery is a personal crime, first, and a civil crime, second.
God takes it seriously and demonstrates it by commanding the offenders be stoned to death.
We ought to take our cue from that.
Put the cheatin' heart in jail, not a psychiatrist's couch.
Unless the offended party forgives.
But then the cheater has to contend with the state next.
But I guess that's no problem, most states will probably give the offender a slap on the wrist.

 

I believe that adultery should be punished.

 

In my opinion, the cheater shouldn't get a single, solitary dime.

By cheating, the cheater breaks the marriage covenant (contract) and is therefore entitled to nothing from the marriage.

Of course, that ain't the way it works, but it ought to be.

My brother's wife cheated on him, and actually got pregnant from the other guy, yet my brother gave her everything just so his son wouldn't have to endure any trauma or have to move from his home. In my opinion, he shouldn't have done it that way. He has nothing to show from the marriage, except his son and a broken heart, and she has been vindictive and using my nephew as leverage against him. He sees his son every couple of weeks, when his ex-wife gets tired of him.
