Betrayal: what are the moral and non-moral consequences
What can we say about the betrayal? Marriage today is no longer an imposed rule as in past years. Having children is no longer a duty and perhaps it is no longer a duty to be a wife. But we must admit that today we get married for love and almost a little for interests. Sometimes it happens that an important aspect of the marital relationship is underestimated: responsibility! And there are some consequences!
From legislative point of view treason can be considered neither a civil practice nor a criminal practice. With this we cannot say to get away with it because it still has consequences that cannot be considered serious have its influence.
Therefore, betrayal is one relationship with a married person other than your spouse. It even seems that they are also part of the betrayal platonic relationships or le online relationship. We make a distinction between treason and adultery according to state law. Betrayal indicates a so-called "escapade" andadultery it is done in a real relationship situation in both cases are punishable with a financial penalty.
But since moral point of view it matters little to whom they charge the costs, it does not matter to divorce and it does not matter to a new marriage. Treason is punishable by Leviticus Bible 18.20 "You will not have carnal relations with your neighbor's wife to contaminate yourself with her". Adultery is condemned by divine law, in ancient times even the death penalty was used, even for those who had consummated relationships before marriage.
Betrayal, how does the church behave?
For the Catholic church the marriage only one remains for life, unless one of the two spouses passes away. It is not expected to leave the liturgies but it is not possible to participate in the Lord's table or to hold the roles of godmother godparents. A small exception it is also made the Church or it is possible to dissolve the marriage through an ecclesiastical court if it is proved that the vice was present before the marriage.
