The Bible states that if your spouse cheats you are under no obligation to uphold the vows and can divorce. If you are in a state that doesn't have laws against it, there is nothing morally, religiously or legally wrong with dating someone when you are separated.
Whoa, what, huh, ????????? Say's who? Now I'm no theologian - not even close. I'm religious but have not done a lot of bible study and won't begin to pass myself off as any sort of expert on the bible but where in the heck are you getting this from? Where in the bible does it say that if your spouse cheats well then you are absolved of all responsibilities? What is the sense of vows then? Why do some religions not even allow divorce - or remove your from the church if you do divorce? Others require an annulment to remarry - or is that where this comes under?
Honestly, I do not know, but I have to tell you in 55 years of life you are the first person I've ever heard claim that the bible says it's okay to divorce if your spouse cheats. Please provide the bible passages this comes from - I'm extremely interested in hearing more about this.
As for dating someone when separated not being morally wrong - that rests within the morals of every individual. It may not be against YOUR morals but it well is against the morals of many others. That does not make them right and you wrong or vise-versa but to say there is nothing that makes it morally wrong as a blanket statement simply does not stand up to society as a whole.
