One of the factors often contributing to affairs is that of ‘imagined wrongs’. The infidel often maintains a list of imagined wrongs. When that list grows long enough to take action, the infidel then uses the list of ‘imagined wrongs’ as a rationale for their affair. The use of the imagined wrongs is a ‘straw dog’ argument. Although outsiders can see through the weak logic often used, the logic is enough to motivate an infidel to justify their affair.
In some cases, when the list needs more justification, the infidel may use mantras like “I deserve some happiness”. In cases where an affair presents a moral dilemma, they resort to the mantra “God would not want me to be unhappy, would he?” The use of the mantras usually comes after the list has been compiled.
If the infidel truly felt that they were doing nothing wrong, there would be no need for the list of imagined wrongs or a mantra. They would be honest and open in their choices. The use of imagined wrongs and mantras indicate that they are not a copacetic about the affair as they had imagined.
