    Is divorce ever okay in situations like this?

    Well, I would have to ponder this more . . . but . . . some of my thoughts . . . If he is abusive and you stayed married and this led to your death, then he would be guilty of murder.

    Chosing To keep a friend or Dump Them?

    feeling worse when under control

    What do atheists and agnostics really believe in Jesus Christ?

    I chose Atheism over Christianity, as I have experienced it. I'm sorry you know so few atheists/agnostics. I'm sorry I know so few, but have found that many are not in-your-face like Christians are.

    Should I do tasks that are above my pay scale?

    I think that, if you enjoy doing it and it is safe for you to do it, then do it. You might want to point out how much you save the company by doing this work.
