Sacred: connected with God or a god or dedicated to a religious purpose and so deserving veneration.

My marriage of over 42 years definitely has nothing to do with an imaginary friend, Joe. My friend, partner, lover and mother of my children may well deserve veneration but she is definitely real.

Ake. Let me help you out. The term wanker, as I use it, has nothing to do with masturbation. It simply means that you please no one but yourself. In is a metaphor rather than literal. In just the same way, if I was to say you are a stupid fucker, I would not mean that you are practicing procreation in a nonsensical manner.

Which brings me back to sacred. If you mean sacred in a metaphorical manner, Joe, just say so. But it still does not excuse suggesting that people do not love each other.
