Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2702492, member: 2221"] I'm agnostic, not atheist. I don't know whether there is a God or higher power, but I am absolutely certain he/she/it did not came down from heaven or Valhalla to tell us how to behave, much less commit atrocities to our fellow human beings. Religion is man made, its many scriptures versions were written by men, quite possibly with the best of intentions, but nonetheless abused by a few to influence the minds of the many, simply through biased interpretation of whatever fiction book they call holy. Those few pray on gullibility of the generally lesser educated and informed people, much in the same way that fascists and/or neo-nazis do. Maybe we have a different interpretation of hard effort. If I can't enjoy my partner's company, and no longer have romantic feelings for her, I would feel hypocritical hanging around because we've signed a piece of paper. Most hard effort would go into keeping up appearances to the exterior. A relationship is an exercise in compromises, but I am only willing to go through those compromises for the benefit of someone I care deeply for. Once that feeling is gone, being forced into those compromises will only result in more and more resentment towards one another, which in turn... results in many looking for what they crave somewhere else, ending up on sites like... you guessed it: Ashley Madison! Yup, that's biology at work right there! [/QUOTE]
