I know. Despite the mutual exclusivity of the various god beliefs, I appreciate the way she is able to rationalize other believer's mistaking (according to the Bible) beliefs.
My only problem in this discussion is the 2 different ways she is using the word 'faith' to equivocate her husband's love for her, and the existence of her god.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
