        That's the Faith/religion option, no-one can take that seriously.

          You mean apart from a few billion people. Like me, as it happens

            He's my wife. So it is catered for.

              Be a man and pick one. You wouldn't move to Australia away from your family for the sake of your wife? But, can you choose between wife and kids?

                money/lifestyle : Ho ho ho
                career : Hee Hee Hee
                respect/reputation : Avoid
                wife/partner : YES
                children : No thanks
                family : Sometimes
                friends : Sometimes
                faith/religion : Deicide sounds good.
                Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                    I want to stay a man, so I'm sticking with all three.

                    Thankfully I don't have to.
