"Any finding that one spouse is at fault in the break-up of a marriage can change how the court divides the couple's property."
-NH law-

Why should our law be involved in imposing penalties for adultery?

Marriage is a contract. The law has always had a role in enforcing contracts and determining claims involving breach of contract.

Yes indeed, but how & why is a sexual breach to be enforced by divisions of property? Who gave the state the power to assign sexual fault?

I will toss the question back at you. Why should the marital contract deserve less protection than any other contract?

It benefits all parties to settle such contracts peacebly without finding fault. No fault divorce works.

Keeping government out of our bedrooms also works.

Don't know where you've been but it happens ALL the time. It DOES influence property settlement. It certainly has a HUGE impact when kids are involved.

Oh, I know ... we can't, er shouldn't legislate morality, right? LOL! It's LEGISLATED ALL THE TIME! It's just that giving a green light for deviancy sickens normal people. BTW, are you normal?

It benefits no one to end a marriage without finding fault. Marriage is until death. No fault divorce has wreaked immeasurable harm on our society.

Due to no fault divorce many children are now raised lacking a parent, usually the father. Lacking a realationship with one's father is one of the main causes of the mental disease known as homosexuality, and we all know the health and social damage that the practice of homosexuality has caused.

Due to no fault divorce marriage has been cheapened, rather than stick together through the hard times people quit and walk out. No fault divorce has turned us into a country of quitters.

Due to no fault divorce our educational level has decreased. Single parent children on average are outperformed by dual parent children. Single parent children commit more crime, do more drugs, are more promiscuous, in short practice negative behaviors with far greater frequency than children with married parents

There is no benefit to no fault divorce except to the sexually deviant as children is single parent homes are far easier for outsiders to molest. (and molestation is the main recruiting tool of the 'homosexual' community)
