why is that? You think adultery is such a heinous crime it deserves. State punishment, I do not. Why is your opinion more valid? Because yours came from a religion?Pluralism, in cases of adutlery, is not a particularly valid or constructive point
assuming its constitutional, yes it is.but it is for a society to choose,
once again, the government has NO compelling reason it needs to punish my or my spouses decisions within our relationship just to satisfy others opinions on how relationships should be.but to the same degree, it is a societies choice to make bad choices, so that is not much of an argument either...
Which is? What is that reason? Personally I don't think they should be. But states can pass such laws if they wish to regulate such things. but a positive right is different from punishment.For the same reason that government is involved in legalizing marriage in the first place.
oh I see. Your logic is that since they are already doing it for one thing and another thing is similiar then it must be ok. Is that what you are saying?Why should they be involved in any aspect of how people conduct relationships? If it is OK or logical for them to be in one aspect, then the same can be said for the other...
I know, but you can outline monetary or property for such injuries. Which is what I was trying to say.You can't have a provision calling for jailtime if your spouse cheats on you, so I'm not sure why you even brought that up.
