Considering that ONLY religion deals with morality, or ethics, is so stupid,
since many moral and ethics treatsies that modern religions have adopted
existed before the religions themselves. Morality and religion are two
separate things, and if you ask me, religion is as immoral as lying,
murdering, adultery, stealing, and hypocracy.

Would a religionist consider it to be immoral? If so, why are there so
many famous religious adulterers?

Are you suggesting that only religion confers morality? Likewise ethics?
