Best Answer

No. Moral turpitude refers generally to conduct that shocks the public conscience. Offenses such as murder, voluntary manslaughter, kidnaping, robbery, and aggravated assaults involve moral turpitude. However, simple assaults not involving dangerous weapons or evil intent do not involve moral turpitude.

"Thou shalt not commit adultery" is one of the Ten Commandments. Violating the Ten Commandments is considered "sinful", so I suppose you could say so.
