I had a similar experience with my x-husband. He was counting on the Catholic Church and the Virgin Mary to save him, although like your wife, he never went to mass either.
I was saved 8 years into our marriage...I guess I drove him crazy talking about Jesus and The Rapture all the time.
He divorced me, married someone a LOT younger (who is a Mormon!) and he's left the Catholic Church. The last I heard, he's saved now, but his wife is still a Mormon...talk about "poetic justice!"

Hold on a second, you were married to a Catholic and yet you never bothered to learn something about the denomination of Catholism? Yes, I said denomination because the Catholic Church is a part of Christianity like it or not.
But nevermind, you think you know all there is needed to know about the Catholic Church do you?
I would imagine you tourturing that poor man with the whole "Rapture" thing since days would come and go and you simply can't shut the heck up!
Good for him to find someone, but tell me, how's your dating life going for you?
But you're going to burn in hell because you're divorced. Sorry, but you must repent and get back with your husband as soon as possible, regardless if you and him will be happier for it. After all, it is your salvation at stake.
Is there nothing that doesn't fill you with a smug sense of self-satisfaction?
Your husband left you for someone younger, and you're smirking and saying "serves him right!"
REALITY IS NOT JUST SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE ELSE
@Thinking Allowed--you'll find that Fundies are actually pretty comfortable with divorce. They give a lot of lip service to the "sanctity of marriage" but that's just code for "no gays allowed". Their divorce rate has, for a long time, been higher than that of the general population in the U.S.
I'm sure he's a lot happier now that he doesn't have to hear about the rapture every day. That would drive anyone crazy.
And maybe he married a Mormon because he's hoping to get a few more wives, or maybe he's just turned on by the magic underwear.
Yes, poetic justice indeed.
He got a more vigorous wife after leaving you and your Raptard friends behind, and you're to hubristic to admit it.
If he traded in your Rapture Ready crazy-talk for a member of another full-time, ultra-controlling cult who's talking about Joe-the Pedophile all the time, that only proves he's just as dim as you are.
And Catholics don't count on the church or the Virgin Mary to save them---they're Christians, who believe in salvation through Christ, just like you do.
I love your holier-than-thou religious superiority coupled with mean-girl vindictive bitchiness. Hypocrite much?
Forget it. He is going to hell. He is committing sin everyday. Jeebus was quite clear about divorce. And, according to your jeebus, there is no salvation for adultery. (paul said something different, but who are you gonna believe, jeebus or paul?) And if you "know" another man anytime your ex is still alive, you too will be condemned to hell. But strangely, you xians dont seem to notice jeebus's words about that in Matthew....
Actaully divorce is allowed. However it is only if the man divorces the woman (basically he is allowed to throw her aside at any time like a used rag) Afterwards the man is allowed to get married again. However the woman may not.
As for this post. Hearing about the rapture all the time, I am suprised he didnt send his wife "home".
He's divorced, remarried and presumably happy. You're alone and blathering on Rapture Ready. Yes, that sounds like poetic justice to me, too.
You are still his chattel Susan. You holy life is tied to him and you can't do anything until he is dead!
If you are following the literal bible rules it must really suck! I hope your family doesn't have a history of longevity cos jesus aint coming any time soon and your stuck with you misery until you (or he) dies!
Arrogant, deluded hag. I'm presuming that a considerable amount of your alimony these days is budgeted towards cat food, cat toys, catnip, and clever oversized cat-graphic sweaters.
A younger Mormon? Yuck!!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
