...the penalty for breaking a marriage vow is dissolving the marriage, not physically harming either party.

I'm not advocating stoning, but you seem to support society's current position in this country of rewarding infidelity financially. The concept of no-fault divorce is certainly immoral and rewards anyone who chooses to unilaterally violate or terminate his or her marriage vows. Furthermore, why someone who would choose to behave in an immoral manner should be additionally rewarded by being granted half (or more) of the community property, ongoing financial support, or controlling custody of children is a puzzle. But when you subsidize behavior you get more of it, and this country subsidizes immoral behavior and the flauting of marital vows big time.

Actually, it was MarkL who wrote: "If you're not happy in a marriage, then get out."
