“I hope your opposition is based on cruelty or physical abuse”

My three acceptable reasons for divorce; Adultery, abuse or addiction.

I realize that my views are at odds with the Holy Bible and I would remind you that they used to stone prostitutes to death in the Bible as well....until Jesus stood up with one of the most powerful phrases ever uttered by anyone, ever.

Yes, but adultery is still sin.

In the very incident you mention, Jesus said to the young woman, “Go and sin no more.”

Most people probably don’t know that.

While the penalty for adultery certainly should NOT be death, at least in this life, it is still a sin.
