My girlfriend has been turning to church and religion and it is about more than I can stand. We've been having a rough time lately, so I've tried to be indulgent, but this is getting out of hand. I am an atheist myself, and have tried to tell her she may as well believe in Father Christmas as Jesus, but she is unmoved. I suspect that the level of education is a determining factor; she has never gone on to university, so grasps religion as a method of validation. I've cheated on her a few times in the past and the thought crossed my mind she was having a revenge affair and using church as a cover-up(a thought that causes me extreme hurt---how cruel of her!), so I asked her point blank. She replied, "I'm seeing a man on a weekly basis now, and you're welcome to meet him as well. His name is Jesus Christ." This is too much. I've followed her secretly a few times and it's true: she's spending every free moment at church and has totally neglected me. What can I do about this?
