I think someone like that is a git.

I would definitely tell her, to stop her life being one big delusion, and so she could spend the rest of her life getting it on and having some fun with a few guys, instead of sitting around depressed thinking about her dead husband who never even loved her anyway, easy question.

Then I think your moral sense is off. You're disabuse someone of an idea that provides them with huge comfort for no reason other than that the belief is false? Don't you care about people's welfare?

How can his moral sense be wrong if, according to you in another thread, it's instilled by a god? Surely you mean to say that his god is wrong in its instructions?

I think someone who posts threads like this is a twat with shit for brains inigo, since we're expressing opinions and everything

You're just confirming my suspicion - that a lot of you are borderline (and over the borderline) psychopaths.

Because 'instilled by a god' does not mean the same as '100% reliable'.

Why should I care about Mary? Leave her be.

But I'd like to turn this around...
Meet Joe, He's a standard guy, trying to make a living in a crazy world... One day, this other guy (Matt) tells him about yet another dude, let's call this dude, 'Dude'.... and Joe falls in love with Dude, because of all the wonderful things that Matt told him about Dude and he also told him that Dude loves Joe back.
At some point, other friends of Joe's tell him about Dude.... He really wants to meet Dude, but no one can get those two in touch with each other.

Now you are, dear reader, are fully aware that Dude was made up by Joe's friends, just to mess with him, or to get him to look forward to something, or whatever...

Is it ok to tell Joe that Dude doesn't exist, never has and never will?

I'm certain that's true.

One would think that what was best for another person's welfare was to live in reality rather than exist in a delusion.

ooooh. didn't know you were a psychiatrist.

And would you tell her?

[pineapplebunnybounce]

yes. because i'm not so full of myself that i'd mislead her to follow my plans for her, i'll respect her enough not to hide important things from her.

You want a lie to a woman who's husband has just died in order for her to never love another man again and to stay faithful to her husbands corpse, even though when he was alive he never loved her anyway.
