Governor Kathy Hochul signs bill removing outdated adultery statute from state law New York has officially closed the chapter on one of its most outdated laws—adultery, which had been criminalized since 1907 and punishable by up to three months of jail time. On November 22, 2024, Governor Kathy Hochul signed the bill repealing this archaic statute, recognizing its growing irrelevance over the decades.

a "special person" likely tried to criminalize their mate...
so in keeping with her dishonesty...Hochul had the law changed.
It’s been irrelevant since the Garden of Eden.
What a realistic observation. Great jump of logic.
Hochul got the law changed so EJ Carroll could go after Trump. Who makes a law good for one year?...which over-rules the statute of limitations. Carroll filed the day after the law was in effect.
Then why did God include it in the Ten Commandments long after Eden?
Ask God...not me...
Kathy got caught?
This one has me divided. As a victim of a former cheating spouse, I want this law out there and enforced. But as we know, government will use laws to go after the “enemies of the state” and use selective enforcement. Either something is the law and you enforce it or it should go away so it cannot be weaponized.
Morality was always taught, but the people hardened their hearts and wouldn’t listen to moral t3achings any longer, so God laid down the law and wrote it in commandment form
Prophets had always preached the word of God, but the people came to hate them and ignore them because man is prone to sin, and love the darkness rather than the light.
I am pretty sure this is related to “no fault divorce”.
I was thinking about that as well.
By taking the way this law , does that mean adultery is no longer grounds for divorce ,or brought up in divorce cases?

So it’s no longer grounds for divorce?

There is a town (pop. over 20k) not too far from me that still has a law prohibiting working on Sunday on the books.
Said law was used to try to close down a movie theater back in the late 1920’s, IIRC. Some employees got fined $2.00 each, the minimum fine, in the end, but the theater stayed open.
A law not enforced quickly becomes a law ignored and irrelevant.
the irrelevant removing the irrelevance
