Not to dampen the spirits of my religious brethren here, but here's the thing:

I'm seeing a record number of my friends, my deeply religious friends, getting divorced.

Of the 4 right now that are in court, all 4 had their wives cheat on them.
They crafted their lives by the Bible.

They followed it to the letter.

Devout Catholics and Christians.

Church every Sunday?

Wrong, try church every day.
So why did their wives leave them?

Many of them have come to me grappling with this question.

"Tim, I did what I was supposed to do. I lived my life by God. I loved her as He did. What did I do wrong?"
These men are completely lost.

Why?

Because they did what they were told to do and not what they needed to do.

They lived a life crafted by others and were told by the Church how to live.

Do they have any personal convictions or purpose?

Sadly, no. None of them do.
Where is their personal will? What are their convictions? Live as God wants? Or live in deference to God.

What's the answer?

It's the same answer it has been guys.

"It's not her, it's you."
What's more interesting is that 2 of the ex-wives were sleeping with some other man in the flock.

Another man in a house of worship blasting your wife.

WTF?

Where are the morals?

They are gone. Don't know if they'll be back.
While what the "manosphere" preaches may make men uncomfortable, it's better than seeing my friends and family members being cheated on in their marriages two decades in because they forgot living a religious life starts with being true to yourself and your convictions.
Understanding the "whys" for these guys on the reasons behind her infidelity and intense hatred of him will take these guys years to process.

Hell, they may never, and I fear I may lose a couple to suicide.

These guys are lost.
