I guess this one's pretty straightforward.

We've made much progress as a nation with regard to marriage. I'm not talking about Atlasia's legalization of gay marriage or our own recognition of polygamy or incest, but rather, the modern and progressive advent of no-fault divorce laws.

However, outdated laws do not always catch up with the times, regardless of enforcement. For instance:

Also, a map in the above link shows that adultery is a criminal offense in New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

I think adultery is justifiable cause for divorce, but obviously there shouldn't be any extra penalties associated with it.

Here's New Hampshire's current statute:

Here's the Massachusetts statue:

All of this is a bit out of proportion, IMO, and not up to date with our consensus of an equitable criminal justice system.

Any prohibitions on the matter seem archaic to me. Fully support. Smiley

I'll support this. Making adultery a criminal offense is ridiculous
