Unless you are ready to be an atheist yourself, don't ever believe you guys will be able to tolerate each other for long. Forget about the "bullshit" about both of you, loving yourselves and being tolerant to one another. That assertion can never work. How can u spend your life with somebody who thinks that your "belief" is delusional and plain foolishness?

How can you train your children in such a man's house? What if he decides that his children will become atheists too? What will happen when both of you are supposed to pray and come together as a family? Do you think such a person will tolerate ur pastors or church members visiting you in his house?

Avoid atheists like plagues. Don't ever think you can change or convert him, once you people are married. There is no any good quality that any atheist possesses, that is not found among the Christian brothers. Just pray hard and God will give you a good believer that will give you more happiness than any atheist can ever think of giving you.

Do You have Problem with Atheists?

ah swear Christians on this forum are really dumb. See that fool saying an atheist will beat his wife to death cause he doesn't believe in any god. really dumb folks
No, an atheist will/may not beat his wife. It depends on the individuals tolerative ability on the long run... But an atheist marrying a christain might cause mini-conflicts which might also exacerbate on the long run. We read a true life story of a nairalander here who married an atheist who later became outspoken and was also imposing his ideas on their little kid thereby causing confusion for the young boy.

An atheist proposed to me just last month and I didn't think it twice to say no. He said things like "I won't disturb you from serving your God, our children will be raised uprightly and when they are old enough, they will choose either being Christians or atheists" but I know once I enter that house, he won't allow me to serve my GOD again

I must confess that I respect you and your fiancée for your discission to marry each other. I am not a pessimist but, the only way your marriage will last is either you become a Christian or she becomes an Atheist.

One of the strong flash point you will encounter is children upbringing.

Ask her if she wouldn't mind that you raise some of your children as Atheist and checkout her reply.

If she says its OK with her, then know for sure that she is either not a Christian or she has an ulterior motive for loving you.

Would you mind if she raises your children as "Christians "? If she is a Christian as you say, she would not be comfortable with the idea that her children will be lost in eternity.

I am a marriage counselor. Love and understanding is necessary for a good Marriage but communication sustains it. Have you done the necessary communication? You'll thank me later.

My Respect Sir

My children can go to church all they want... The most important thing is that I am their father... I will always be more important in their life than any imaginary being just as long as I am the best father that I wanna be

So tell.me something Mr counselor, are u suggesting my girl is better off marrying a Christian who she might not be as comfortable with as she is with me!
We will soon get married!! Communication is the least of our problems

I liked this! Because I am an agnostic... However, it is much easier for an atheist to be tolerant of a mildly religious person than an ultra-religious (like the pastor loving, night vigil and bible classes types.

I fond it so hard to communicate with members of my family because every other word is god this and god that... So you are right that a deeply religious person should not kid themselves about marrying an atheist - it will be hard for it to work! I also like the part about not trying to change people; right on!

RUBBISH!!! He's being honest and straightforward he wants his kids to make their own decisions. The only reason why your a christian instead of a muslim is because you were born into a christian family and grew up a christian.

The truth is that an atheist has no moral compass.
For an atheist anything goes. Because he doesn't believe in a Higher Power to whom he will be accountable at the end of his life, he is free to indulge and even over-indulge every excessive urge for selfish gratification that comes over him.
Is it any wonder that the biggest producers of pornography in the world, like Larry Flint and Hugh Heffner are staunch atheists?
It takes discipline to subordinate yourself to a Higher Ideal. Atheists will NEVER have such discipline.

Daft ideas certainly being spewed and floated here. Repeatedly on NL, I've asserted that morality is logically independent of religion or theism. Empirically verifiable findings (See Phil Zuckerman's Society without God) incontrovertibly shows that most religious countries (and therefore people) are the most corrupt. Conversely, the least religious countries in the world (e.g. the Nordic countries) are the least corrupt and most morally upright.

There are pastors, not simply congregants, who beat their spouses to stupor (http://www.nigerianmonitor.com/photo-mfm-pastor-beats-up-his-wife-of-17-years/). There are Christians (including pastors) who, over time, abandoned their faith and became atheists or agnostics and who neither abuse/assault their spouses nor prevent them from continuing to practice their Christian faith.

please read in between the lines... "Atheists will not or may not beat up his wife, it depends on the individual's tolerative ability" or let me rather say it depends on the individual's mentality. Also a christain married to a christain can not be ruled out from beating up his wife. I didn't portray them as evil beings but my post was based on their religious differences.

You as an individual have taken your decision, you can't speak for others.

If u tell me that atheists are not better than comitted born again christians and liberal muslims, i may accept, but for atheists not being better than all religious people (both liberals, fanatic, extremist), then capital NO.

My only problem with atheists is the way they ridicule God and other people's religion, some words from them can be so shocking and have no boundaries, but i must confess that these people called atheists are very intelligent people.

My late fiance was a Christian yet we had an almost perfect relationship. She always bothered me with prayer sessions and fasting and all that and insisted we must Wed in church which I accepted for the sake of love..I miss her and i am proud of myself because she confessed she never met a guy like me.

Now, 3 years later I am in a new relationship with a Christian and we should be getting married by next year.

One thing most religious folks fail to understand is that there is more to a relationship than Yahweh or Allah. Their ignorance and the deciept by pastors has led them to think that one cannot function normally outside religion.

Apart from going to church and praying to urself, humans will still go home and interact with each other. Our daily lives have absolutely nothing to do with any nonexistent God. Relationship involves sacrifice, pain, love, learning, respect, all of which humans must learn how to balance in order to be in a steady relationship.
I love my girl and she is so comfortable with me.

All my relatives know I don't buy all this church and religious stuff, yet they are amazed at how i am quick to respond to their plight. I am like the good black sheep of my family, I hate religious matter yet, despite not being rich, everyone seem to lean on me.

I respect my girl and we have learned to be with each other, we laugh at our jokes and know when not to cross each others boundary and that's respect. Yet we are not a perfect duo... But we are happy.

If God exists, he must be foolish. He is the source of segregation among the very humans he claims he created and loves. He went into hiding and when someone does not believe he exists, he asks those who believes not to be equally yoked with them. Yet their is no perfect relationship between this so called believer.

The op proudly opened a thread to preach hate in the name of a loving God. Yet she will hypocritically point accusing fingers at a Muslim who rejects his daugther for dating a Christian.

Well for me, even though I think religion is dumb, I still believe good people will always be good and bad people will always be bad. There are bad religious people and good religious people. There are also bad atheists and good atheists.

Imagine the irony of this thread... Loving Christians preaching hate, while murderous atheists are sying it's possible to live with Christians despite the difference. But loving Christians insists that we should never live together.

I'd rather advice my sister to marry a good man like me.

I'm a christian, engaged to an atheist and getting married to him soon. This is the 1st atheist i've ever dated, I have dated Christians all my life but this is my bestest relationship so far and it has taught me a lot especially to be non-judgemental, accept pple for who they are and respect pple's opinion and i'm very grateful for this amazing man in my life.

I see where you are coming from, and a part of me identifies with you. I was once a very committed Christian, but obviously not anymore.

What I used to do in my interactions with atheists (when I was Christian) was I didn't assume that they had ulterior motives to be stubborn. It was clear to me that they were indeed truth-seekers and were not being needlessly disagreeable. I just felt they needed to find what I had found... Christ's love! I think if you take things from this perspective, you will have productive conversations with atheists even if neither side agrees with the other.

Ironically it wasn't my conversations with atheists that changed my mind. Years later, it was my own crazy questions about the nature of reality that triggered a lot more questions and even more painstaking research. I came out of the process empathizing for my atheist friends who in the years past had badgered me with questions that I didn't have crisp answers to. A couple of months later, I found myself ridding myself of what I now realized wasn't true and had never been true.

As for my Christian friends in real life, I am still very close friends with them. At the end of it all, we all realize that we are friends and what matters in our relationships is being good to each other and supporting one another, atheist or theist.
DoctorAlien:
Antiparticle,

I appreciate your thoughts on this issue. However, you will agree with me that most "atheists" come to arguments with their minds made up. They have already concluded that GOD does not exist. And so when they say, "prove that GOD exists," you know they are not ready to reason with open minds. I'm sure that if GOD Himself came down and stood before them just to confirm that He exists, many of these "atheists" will dismiss such an experience as mere hallucination. Such is the degree of their openmindedness.

So what proof do you really need? Keep in mind that the post you quoted was made in a bid to clarify the character of GOD, which "atheists" willingly distort in a bid to create a strawman of Christian arguments.

At this point, I must say that most of what we have here as "atheists" are either hypocrites or unintelligent folks. When they want to show off their ignorance, they malign GOD. And when you make things clear to them about GOD's pure character, they scream "GOD does not exist!"
