As a Southerner, I would say "end of my rope" is only close. That phrase has more to do with running out of hope. Losing one's religion has more to do with running out of patience, becoming angry, and losing that restraint with which our good religious upbringing has provided us. It would generally mean then, turning to cussin' or fightin'.

It is a common saying in the southern United States and is similar in meaning to the phrase "at the end of my rope".
What is the origin of the phrase "Luke-warm?"

Okay, who else has multiple meanings for "LOL"? I never know if someone means "laugh out loud", "lots of love", "little old lady" ...

My dictionary says that de facto in the sense of "living together as if married" is only an Australian/ New Zealand term. what is the term used for this in other places?
