Dear xjwms,
May I suggest you get rid of your wife. Problem solved.
Seriously, if you live your life dancing to someone else's music, you will eventually come to hate them and yourself. Your gilt is only a symptom of a much deeper problem.
May I suggest you get real clear sense on how you want to live the rest of your life, and have a deep heart to heart talk with your wife. Honesty is the best policy, here.
Easy for me from way over here, right. Good luck buddy xj.

If there was no religion
by KW13 in.
i was thinking today, imagine if people had their faiths and opinions but no actual religion backing them up.. i believe that it would help stop cults e.t.c making money off people and controlling peoples lives and would help make the world a lot more peaceful.. i've yet to come across a religion that doesn't have problems or in some way is hypocritical.. what do you think?

For all intents and purposes, Nazism was a religion,
Agree. Here, almost two hours long, is an informative and entertaining Google video: Part One .... Part Two
Edited to add: My sense is that the core problem arises when we transform our beliefs into our reality, and so dismiss what actually is real.

Why would God want to destroy the world?
by DavidChristopher inmakes no sense to me,,,,,.
we have the means to accomplish that..and there are many people willing to do it too.. why would he want to put our necks in a noose..when we do it ourselves?.
who could blame him for us killing ourselves?.

Perhaps it is in agreeance with their desires?
"Their desires"? Besides your mind, where does this destructive idea of god exist?

Could this really be the TRUTH?

Your friend is on to something in his second sentence where he connects God with infinity; then his mind gets the better of him and he loses it.
Infinity, is that which has no beginning and no end; that which no thing and no one can be separate from. He is unaware of holding the precious key he uttered in his second sentence, and so does not stop there and dissolve into the hugeness and immediacy of what his own words point to. Instead he continues on about a small biblical idea-god which is just a tiny meandering fragment somewhere within the mind, and gets lost in a fairytale of his own making.

The lists seem to simply show the intellectually stifeling affects of religion, some more than others.
I feel a John Lennon song coming on.

Materialism and those with "spiritual experiences"
by slimboyfat inmore and more i find myself coming to a materialist view of the world.
i don't believe in afterlife, ghosts, angels, auras, astrology, revelations and the like.
so what am i to make of people who claim to have spiritual experiences?

Narkissos:
Indeed, all imaginary representations, or theories, tend to be totalitarian and deny the others inasmuch as they are perceived as concurrent...This seems an unsuperable limit to me.
Insurmountable only as long as "all imaginary representations and theories" are believed to be reality. Once clearly seen for what they are, the barrier dissolves.
The door is always open.
