I'll start.

We had great chemistry but different goals. She was religious and looking to marry and thought she could change me, a non-religious person who intends to remain unmarried and childless. I was up front about the lack of religion and the lack of desire for marriage. She was not up front about her intent to change me.

After two months of regular flings she told me we couldn't see each other anymore, because she wanted someone to go to church with, it was my fault she was living a sinful life (totally), and she was cheating on me with another dude was a Christian.

Must be cool to be a Christian. Just do shitty things, then ask forgiveness and it's all good. You always get it.

Asking for forgiveness and repenting seems to be entirely optional, and limited to certain sects anyway.

Most that I know just do shitty things, but it's ok because Jesus is on their side.
