Wow.

I’ve mentioned my sister on here before – the one with the dog and the shit-head husband. The sister who is ultra religious and wears nothing but dresses and homeschools her kids so they are not polluted by things like evolution and nontraditional relationships.

This sister called me the other day and told me that she was experiencing some doubts in God and Christianity and the whole shebang. I sympathized, I really did. I was there when my husband was going through his deconversion. I was there for my deconversion. I know what it feels like to have the foundation of your entire life shaken and finally utterly destroyed. I know that it’s like to suddenly realize that you’ve been basing your life on a giant game of pretend.

Last night she shared her doubts with her husband – the husband that demands obedience and acquiescence from his wife and children because he is the “head of the household,” thus sayeth the Lord. His response? “Honey, I think we should have an open marriage and I think we should hop in the sack with a couple who are complete strangers to us. Whaddya think?”

My sister: “I’m not really comfortable with that.”

Her husband: “Well, how about if I just step out with said couple?”

My sister, somewhat in shock at the sudden turn of events: “Um, okay.”

Her husband: “Alrighty then. I’ll see you later tonight after I’ve gotten my grove on with this stranger couple I found via an online advertisement.”

*door swings shut behind him*

HOLY SHIT!

I am not making this up. The man that won’t let his wife get a tattoo, that wants his wife to wear skirts and keep her hair long, wants his kids homeschooled for religious reasons, this man just had a threesome? With strangers? That he found in an advertisement?

I am not sure if I’m pissed at him for being an asshole, angry with my sister for being a doormat, happy that maybe their shitty marriage will quit giving marriage a bad name and just end already, secretly giddy that religion has failed once again, or just really depressed that my sister’s life just went down the shitter in every possible way and she’s just bumped herself up on my suicide-watch list.

This fucking sucks.
