:And the man that committeth adultery with another man's [[wife]], even he that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death. [http://bible.cc/leviticus/20-10.htm (Leviticus 20:10)]

Jesus said that a man commits adultery in his heart by lustfully looking at a woman. (Matthew 5:28) Sexual intercourse by a married man or woman outside marriage is considered adultery under modern law, although it is hardly ever punished anymore.<ref>The ACLU has been unable to find an adulterer who is willing to challenge a prosecution.

Adultery may ruin trust between husband and wife and break up [[families]]. It is contrary to the traditional marriage pronouncement derived from Matthew 19:6: "Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." It also breaks the promise that the bride and groom make to each other in virtually every form of marriage ceremony observed in the U.S.—even secular observances conducted in judge's chambers, or in vows written by the couple themselves.
