Rottweiler:Ohmygosh, it's so interesting that you just wrote that. B/c I think this life is hell and there is no hell. |

chinani: Sorry about that. Do you stay in Afghanistan? I understand why you equate life to hell. It's a pity. Just endure. You will soon be free. I mean when your guy decides to strap some bombs to himself in order to spend eternity with some virgins in the great beyond It's 10.47pm here in naija, I have to go pray to my God before going to bed. Cheers. |

Yes. I would marry an Atheist |

Rottweiler: On the contrary, you, as a believer, should have the upper hand in a situation like this. This is the more reason why I wouldn't mind getting married to an atheist, because I know eventually, she wouldn't need anyone to tell her God exists. She'll proclaim it herself! |

chinani: I think this life is hell and there is no hell.So do I. You know what this means? We are meant for each other: Christian Atheist marries Atheist Christian! |

Rottweiler:Gosh, I didn't mean it to sound that dramatic. Let me rephrase: I don't believe in Hell. What I meant was: If Hell is the absence of God and (I think) the world operates w/o a second thought about God despite what ppl may say, then the world is Hell. |

Seun:LOL Seun!!! Is that a proposal? But then again, are you EVERYTHING I've ever wanted? Those are the conditions, abi? |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by jgirl3: 7:16am On May 30, 2006 |
lol - it depends on the person. If the person has a good nature - then it is possible for me to marry him. About the life thing, life is not hell - it is so much more lenient than hell. At least good stuff happens in life but in hell, there is no good at all. |

If you don't have faith in God How can you stand when all hell is breaking lose in your marrage ??. And the enemy is ragging like a flood to distroy anything connected to you. Except the Lord-God build a house or else the builder labour in vain. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by dakmanzero(m): 7:15pm On May 30, 2006 |
my answer to this is: like and like must marry. however that does NOT translate to 'same religion must marry'. it translates to tolerant X tolerant or intolerant X intolerant the intolerant should marry someone of like mind (this implies a same-religion-union) the tolerant must NOT MARRY AN INTOLERANT PERSON or they will regret it. same religion or not! look for someone as openminded as you are and have a happy married life |

Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by ToyM28(f): 6:11pm On Jun 01, 2006 |

Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by MrBean(m): 7:58pm On Jun 01, 2006 |
Hell NO !!!! Freedom of choice is a beautiful thing. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by Yomz(m): 8:03pm On Jun 01, 2006 |
Love only can not sustain a marriage. Someone that does not beleive in God is veritable tool devil's hand. Cat and mouse can not stay together. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by dominobaby(f): 9:09pm On Jun 01, 2006 |

Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by spikedcylinder: 7:09pm On Jun 02, 2006 |
I will not marry a believer of whatever faith. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by spikedcylinder: 7:12pm On Jun 02, 2006 |
That was a joke by the way. Seriously,i saw a post earlier(cant remember who posted)that said atheist,animism etc is one and the same thing.I mean,how ignorant can someone be?Damn! |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by baby4u2(f): 5:57am On Jun 03, 2006 |

Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by Badman888(m): 7:15am On Jun 03, 2006 |
nah i dont think i can, better to marry someone who have same beleifs as u. you can relate together and stuff |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by silans(m): 8:53pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
NO and Never!!! Because the Bible amde us to Understand in the book of 2corinthians 6:14 that we should not yoke with an unbeliver. that we should not yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?, so as a believer, i can't marry some one that does not believe in God, but if it is the will of God, then who am i to say no . but i know God can never allow that to be His wish for me, He made us to understand; in the book of Jeremiah, that His work for mankind is not of evil but of Good, |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by silans(m): 8:57pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
wow, nairaland users, its good to understand the Bible very well, i just quoted a Bible passage there that we shouldnt yoke with unbelievers (2corinthians 6:14) but please take a look at 1corinthians 7:13 it says ; "And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him." i think i will go ahead and marry her then convert her mind and everything unto God. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by dominobaby(f): 10:11pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
Silans, it is not our duty to 'convert', since when did we become 'converters' for d Holy Spirit? If he/she is meant for u, he/she would have come under d convinction of d H.Spirit. Unless one does not follow d scriptures in dat regards. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by Seun(m): 10:19pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
Religion divides people. It's so sad. I'll just marry a nominal Christian and we'll produce cute atheist babies. |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by dominobaby(f): 10:23pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
@seun, why a nominal xtian, why nt an atheist like u? |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by chinani(f): 10:35pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
Seun:And who says the children will be |
Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by Seun(m): 10:41pm On Jun 04, 2006 |
That's true: what if they turn out to be Christians!??!?! Oh my, parenting is such a risky occupation. You train your Children to turn out right, and then they go and decide to be Christians. It's shameful |
