    The quality of your posts tells me that you've attended subpar schools like Washington or Jordan for most of your life. Speak on it.

    I've never attended any LAUSD schools.

    Things couldn't be any better if I married an Atheist. I won't mind marrying a Christian, or any other religious person, as long as they don't try to force their views on me. If I married a religious person, they would have to be one of those "I believe in god, but don't ever go to church" people. You know, the ones that don't actually apply religion to everyday life, but believe in a god jut because it's how they were raised. I'd be fine with that.

    Me and Dinara aren't of the same religion, but we love each other deeply, and we both have a strong faith in God. That's good enough for me.

    I always had relationships with ppl of different religion. I'm not really religious myself. I have faith but, to make an example, I don't pray or go to church, or anyways I could pray wherever (church, sinagogue, mosque) since God, in my opinion, is ONE.
    My longest relationship was with a muslim guy, then I had mostly protestant guys (not italians, obviously).
    I've never had big problems with it, but I must say that my muslim ex wasn't wasn't really religious. He didn't go to pray etc. It was ME who bought the Koran for him for his birthday and told him to read it. In Senegal they have more an animist-islam and they are not really strict, so me and him were ok. I must say, though, that on some things we didn't agree and he used to say it was the religion, but I just think it's cultural/of the family. He was nice to everybody but he said he could never tollarate to have a gay son and he kept saying that homosexuality is sick because all the religions say that. I wished him to have a gay son one day, LOL. I found the same thing on a protestant man, too.
    I could be with a man whatever his religion is, as long as he doesn't force me to become like him. My friend is catholic like me, but I could never be with him. He would take me to church every sunday morning and he doesn't goes out for the 40 days before Easter and eat fish on fridays etc. I couldn't stand it.

    The options for a sarcastic atheist with non-traditional views aren't as scarce as one might think.

    So let's say, hypothetically, you fell in love with a woman who became your whole world, you just could not imagine your life without her, you want to commit to her for the rest of your days, give her your last name and make a family with her etc, how would you do it? I'm curious. :smile:

    Sorry dear, missed this earlier.

    Although it isn't something I want now, being an atheist doesn't preclude me from marrying or having children. Atheists the world over marry and reproduce all of the time.

    So it would be a civil marriage or secular marriage?
    I just learned those words. [​IMG]

    No, just a marriage. It doesn't have to be termed a "secular union" or anything like that.

    Marriage is not an inherently religious institution, it was invented by men (not god) who wanted to control female sexuality.
