ok–religiously and morally, when can a person cross the line and know that divorce is the only way to go. I know the bible says that cheating is the way, but are their other reasons –where I would not be guilty all of my life and think I am going to Hell too?? I am not planning this or anything–but I see things in a different way now and other people see the things that he is doing to me–they look at it differently than I do. They believe he is lying to me a lot and using me for money. Plus he is and has been on the Methodone drug treatment program and sells and uses it b/c that is prescribed, but he smokes week constantly and I found pills and a straw–he said that incidence was just a relapse and he has only supposedly done that about 6 times since he got into treatment. He had no job and I paid for everything and I think he uses my money to front things and I don’t know if I am wrong or just looking for a way out. We were friends for years and he was the love of my life!!
ok he did not work for 2 years almost and he recently got a job b/c I told him that people were talking bad and that my account was so low. But he does not seem to be changing the drug thing and more people are calling him who are into stuff and there is more. But I love him and I think that no one else will love me and that no one else could put up with him and that we are perfect for eachother for that reason. ???
Thank you everyone for your kindness! I really appreciate all of your words of wisdom. May God Bless you!!

Please look at this question:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20061007221339AAooWVC&r=w#NbUvWza6UjnFAv.9Bu3T

Why did so many people tell this girl to PRAY for a drug addict and none of them mentioned DRUG TREATMENT??

Shouldn’t this person see a licensed medical professional who can treat people with drug addiction?

Don’t you feel that it is DANGEROUS and foolish to advise a person with a serious drug addiction to simply “pray” when science and statistics clearly show us that drug treatment is the only PROVEN way to treat drug addicts??
hey papaofgirlmegan: so you don’t agree with me? If it was one of your family members you would rather “pray” for them than give them treatment? Wow, you are a sick man.
hey benitocanadian: Ra + treatment= cured!
Hey Esther: You do realize that science has statistically proven that the most effective treatment for drug addiction is REHABILITATION…….right? I’ll make you a bet….you pray for 100 drug addicts and I’ll send 100 addicts to rehab….who do you think will win??? WAKE UP!
Rkirby: Why am I angry???? Because religious WHACKOS are advising people with SERIOUS medical conditions to “pray” instead of seeking help from a Doctor. Don’t you see how dangerous this is? Wake UP!!!
tequila: Nice try. So no atheists attend AA/NA? No Buhdists? They don’t believe in your “god”. Also, AA and NA (while good alternatives) don’t have anywhere CLOSE to the long term success rate as LONG TERM inpatient (secular) treatment centers who rely on FACTS and MEDICINE, not invisible “spirits” and superstition.
OCCUPYING SPACE: are you telling me that people without “faith” can’t be cured of addictions? That’s funny, I know of atheists who have gone to inpatient treatment centers for addictions with great success. What’s funny is that these centers make no mention of “god”.
JesusFan: you said jesus can heal anybody right? Please provide evidence to support your bizzare claims.

Timothy Garon, a 56-year-old patient suffereing from hepatitis C, was denied a liver transplant for using medically prescribed mariuana, according to his lawyer.

“His doctor at Harborview Medical Center told him she wouldn’t put in his paperwork for transplant consideration at UW until he avoided pot for six months, [his lawyer] Hiatt said. The university soon offered to reconsider if he enrolled in a 60-day drug-treatment program, but his liver disease was too advanced by then for him to last that long, doctors told him. The university-hospital committee agreed to reconsider its decision, then denied him again.”

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/health/2004389825_liver03m.html
Garon said he believed he contracted the disease by sharing needles used to inject illegal drugs when he was a teenager.

On the advice of his physician, he smoked marijuana to counteract nausea and abdominal pain and to stimulate his appetite.

What does this say about the transplant industry’s committment to “saving lives?”
