divorce?

I think distinguish would make more sense here, though I guess they might become mixed up sometimes.

I think it's a good metaphor...

@sacredceltic: The word "divorce" isn't being used as a metaphor here.

3. total separation; disunion: a divorce between thought and action.

That seems to comfort it, no ?

An easy way of putting this would be: Can't you tell fantasy from reality - wouldn't it?
