1- PROVE it was a fabricated story..
Please see the following links, in no particular order, regarding the story of the adulterous woman, which was fabricated and then added to the Gospel of John:-

There is no question the story of the adulterous woman was added to the Bible because it was
NOT present in the original texts, and only appeared later.
Along with the truth pointed out by Biblical scholars that the story of the adulterous woman was:
1) not present in the original texts of the Gospel of John;
2) doesn't match the writing style of the rest of the Gospel of John; and
3) interrupts the flow of the story being told in the verses before and after it,
there are several other reasons we can be
CERTAIN it was added later, including:
4) the passage contradicts Christ's statement about The Law found in Matthew 5:17-19 (i.e. if the story about the adulterous woman happened as we're told, it is calling Christ a liar);
5) the passage contradicts itself by claiming only a woman was caught in the act of adultery [it takes two to “tango” and the penalty in The Law is that
BOTH the man and the woman caught in the act have committed a capital offence (
Lev. 20:10)]; and
6) the passage contradicts itself by claiming Jesus let the woman caught in the act of adultery go, while at the same time telling her to “go and sin no more”. If it's really okay to commit adultery, then why tell her to stop doing it? In other words, if there's no penalty for sinning (breaking The Law –
1 John 3:4), then there's no incentive for anyone to stop sinning/breaking The Law, i.e. stop being a criminal.
The
REAL reason the story of the adulterous woman was added was to be used to supposedly grant people the licence to commit all the abominations of the Earth (
Rev. 17), even though Christ Himself said heaven and earth would pass away before the slightest change to The Law would take place (
Matt. 5:18).
We have even further proof in the
FACT that today, as a result of man's refusal to keep and enforce The Law, adultery has been re-packaged as “having an affair” and is not only dealt with “leniently” under man-made rules, it's encouraged (and even glorified).
This has caused
BILLIONS of broken homes and untold amounts of suffering, as children are often caught in-between feuding parents, and brought up in an environment that fosters selfishness, infidelity and conflict (hatred really), instead of love and teamwork to overcome all obstacles. And it trains the children to repeat the same mistakes as their parents, perpetuating this hatred and suffering in a never-ending cycle.
2- As a single man, married women have fluttered their lashes at me over the years but I've never accepted their invitation because i could never in a million years want to get involved with a married woman, I'd feel absolutely uncomfortable.
I can't explain it but it must be hard-wired into my DNA, I dunno.
Because you know, deep inside, on a
spiritual level, that it is
WRONG. It's a capital offense under The Law.
The most I could do would be to invite them to my place for a cup of tea or a stroll along the seafront or around town if they were feeling depressed and lonely or if their hub was a washout, and maybe I'd give her the odd hug but nothing more than pure friendship.
Good for you.
