There are ppl whos religion (if they knew it prolly says dont date/marry ne body not of the same religion) yet they still date all kinda ppl and not know it. Therefore religion is often just a title passed on through the family so that shouldnt cause a problem. I say if ur arent really practicing (doing what ur religion says or living how it says u should) it, dont try to enforce a little bit of this and a little of that and cause issues in a relationship bc at the end ur still a phone-e with a screwed up relationship bc u wanted to make the rules.

    very true statement here i wont get too into it but this same type of situation caused a large argument

    but my question still lies with marriage how do you marry someone from another religion would you choose to do just a ring ceremony or have one for hers and one for yours?

    I was going to rep you but it seems you've disabled them.

    I'm atheist, and most of the girls I know claim to be religious. I think the thing with religion is its all for show. Its easy to say you are religious, but actually following through is another. I know a lot of people who go to church hungover. Organized religion (for most people) is just a way for people to identify with eachother based on the lines of class, race, economics, etc.

    But I don't think I could date a religious girl. I refuse to go to church and pretend I am religious. I know I am a heathen and I am up front and honest about it. Most people who are religious are also to the right of the political spectrum as well, and I happen to be pretty far left. I would be OK dating a religious girl, but I wouldn't want her practice of her religion to suffer because of me. I am holding out for the right girl, one who is as faithless and decadent as I am

    Edit: to the poster who asked how people marry without church/religion:

    When theres no God sex before marriage isn't a sin. So the pressure for marriage isn't nearly as bad

    You can get married at the justice of the peace and theres no mention of God in the ceremony at all. You can also just not get married . I think 2 people can be faithful enough to each other not to need to get married. I myself have never been much for pomp and circumstance, I find weddings assine. I am dreading my own, if I ever have have one.

    I'm agnostic, and I definitely couldn't date a girl who was REALLY religious. Especially if she believed in creationism and whatever... If she just went to church and stuff I wouldn't mind as long as she didn't force me to come. I'd go once or twice, but I would never go all the time.

    Kids? I honestly wouldn't care. If she felt strongly enough about it to take them to church, then she could. I just wouldn't be going.
