- Abstract
The lack of character education and the high influence of liberal western culture has led many people to enter into unhealthy romantic relationships, who instead of carrying out legal marriage relations, in accordance with religious beliefs and the provisions of marriage law, actually engage in sexual relations outside of marriage or commit adultery. Currently it is increasing to a very worrying level, for some people it is even considered normal because it does not harm other people. As a legal state, based on the Pancasila values and moral values in society, Indonesia views adultery as a bad thing. Through normative legal research with literature study as its conceptual approach and deductive analysis, this study attempts to see the basic rationality of adultery in Indonesia as a Pancasila legal state. The results of the research show that there is a rational basis for regulating adultery in the Pancasila legal state, namely the philosophy of divine law, where positive law as lex humana must not conflict with the law taught by God, which is contained in the first principle “Belief in One Almighty God.”
