Bad Sects (new project title- opinions?)



As I am trying to define myself and internalize sin from a rather privileged stance, I cannot escape relating sin and lifestyle to domestic partnerships. The feelings I associate so closely to religion and relationships is powerless, compromising, and defeat. And I think that the demands of both of these ideas are so conformist that they repel me. So bringing the two ideas together is to form something more tangible for me as far as imagery goes. This may be a reach, but I feel that what people tend to bring to relationships almost mirrors their subconscious feelings towards religion (generally speaking about middle class Americans). At first glance I want the couple to seem like they would have a close to healthy relationship by most standards, but the subtleties to set in as a secondary understanding.
