Looks like you all got the story of Lord Vishnu and Tulsi wrong. Vrinda was married to Jalandar (a Demon). She was a great devotee of Vishnu. She constantly prayed to Vishnu to always protect Jalandar. By doing so no one could defeat Jalandar, even the Trinity themselves. Lord Shiva then approaches Vishnu to solve this issue. The issue could only be solved if Vrinda's chastity was destroyed. So Vishnu takes up the role of violating Vrinda, so that Lord Shiva could destroy Jalandar.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Don't love someone so much that you overlook their defects. That is by itself a big sin. There are very few Pati-Vratha stree's in this Universe. Vrinda is one among them (As far as i remember those were: Sati, Anjana (saved Kesari), Ahalya, Draupadi, Tara, Vrinda and Mandodari.Comparing Indra's story with Vishnu's story is wrong and disgraceful. Both situations are different. One was for Jagat Kalyan (Vrinda) so that a demon could be killed.. in this Vishnu had no lust whatsoever and he did it on the request of Shiva. Indra violated a Rishi's wife and that too for selfish reasons. So comparing the two is as good as Paap. And don't forget, today when someone Rapes a Woman, the Woman has to lead a disgraceful life.. on the other hand, Vrinda was immortalized as Tulsi (today no Vishnu puja starts without Tulsi leaves). And Ahalya was also immortalized as the biggest devotee of Vishnu (in Lord Ram's Avatar).
