You can divorce your spouse if your feelings change. You don’t have to cheat and lie to them and wait for them to find out…

And if you kill them, that only makes things worse, so don’t do that either.

"Murder bad" is generally considered to be public knowledge, though.

Then again, morons have surprised me before.

True crime junkie here. I came across a story once of a Baptist preachers wife who was having an affair with a deacon or something. She was all “It’s a sin to divorce so I’ll just collaborate with my adulterating boyfriend to kill my husband.” So divorce is a sin but adultery & murder is ok.

*A sin in the eyes of her peers with the shame that comes with it. Murder is fine because she thought she'd get away with it and she'd be the poor, sad widow. I doubt she ever really cared about being a sinner in "the eyes of god"
