Except if u become an atheist too like him, then u guys will all reason in one direction.. Just ordonary xtian-muslim marriage get him own issues(im a product of one) Its gonna be worse, wen its xtian-atheist.. A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE.. |

SpicyJosBabe:Let him go look for an atheist and marry...everytime an atheist wants to marry a christian sister, abi dem no get atheist sister for that their gathering ni??....nobody is neutral in life, it's either you are serving mamon or serving God....also, self righteousness can never take you to heaven cos i see people type here that some atheist have good character than a christian, this is fallacy in the higher oder of enthropy system...let him goan marry from his believe, it's as simple as that. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

SpicyJosBabe: Yes I'm an atheist and you do not have to tell your family he's an atheist, rather tell them he's the best man you've ever met....Of course the marriage will take place in a church because I'm pretty sure he wouldn't mind. Now, children are the most delicate issue here. For instance, once my kids reach age 5 or 6 I will buy them story books on Jesus, Prophet Mohammed, different myths of creation, children's books on Buddhism, Hinduism, and Zeus. The reason is to free them from the shackles of dogma and not indoctrinate them into any organized religion. I and my wife will let our children understand our belief system and why we are convinced. There will be no trying to force them into our 'religious' inclination. Make your children inquisitive, don't make them to just stick with traditions, that's very detrimental. My dad is still a pastor in Nigeria and he still does evangelism in villages but he knows I'm an atheist! I wish I could explain more..enjoy your life. 10 Likes |

Nigayoyo: Ok, but like you said, the children part is the part i don't think i can cope with, i could cope with every other thing. I cannot imagine my future kids as strong atheists who will disregard all that i have to offer as a mother. Is your wife an atheist too? And a Nigerian? I've never heard of female atheists in Nigeria. And you really did not understand my first question, i did not say i was going to tell my mother that he is an atheist, but my mother will surely engage him in a personal conversation if i take him to her and religious questions are inevitable. What will he say if she starts asking him the name of his church, denoination, fellowship, Pastors e.t.c? If he lies, and she later finds out, it would all be directed to me and i will not be able to withstand the pain and dissapointment my mother will feel and show towards me. And if he tells her the truth, she may not bless or approve the marriage. |

Seun: That i think would be practically impossible. I have already had the conviction of Jesus as the saviour of the whole world and salvation for mankind. Men may act good towards women before marriage but after marriage they change. I think there are good and bad people in every belief, atheism notwithstanding. |

SpicyJosBabe: Please listen to me, I tell you the truth from the bottom of my heart. Don't marry that guy; don't marry an atheist for any reason at all. Use your head on this one and forget about whatever love you think you both share. If you marry an atheist, yoh will live to regret it. Selah. |

Seun: Seriously? She was brought up in a Christian home, strictly Christian. It's very odd to tell her to convert to atheism. The best you can say is she should try not to be too religious. Being an atheist doesn't make someone wonderful, not being too religious is what makes someone wonderful and the Christianity that i know is not about being religious. #peace SpicyJosBabe My advice is, think about the future. A man that doesn't believe in God is not a man worthy of following. You're going into the "deep pit". That man cannot believe Divorce is a Sin, he cannot believe adultery is a sin, he cannot so many unholy tin to be a sin. #beware o ye children of light. 2 Likes |

hahn:Atheism is a belief. Atheists dont believe what religious people believe. Lack of belief in a deity or supreme being simple means “belief in no deity of supreme being.“ there is no man without belief. So forget that ur quote of confusion. Now for u, my confused lady: my advise is simple. Run away. You know why? 1: Love fades after some days in marriage and at that time, other things carry the marriage along. 2: Will you be praying at home after marriage? If you will. How will you handle his atheist friends when they come around and make comments that are bad to your belief or your friends make comments against his belief; how will he take it and for how long? 3: your children, in which way will they be brought up? Your way or his way or no way at all? 4: Who comes to the naming of your children? Ifa, alfa, christian priest or atheist priest (lolzzzz)? 5: This is Africa. On the day of your traditional marriage, will he submit himself for prayers according your tradition or christian religion? How will he react when your parents wants to pray for you and your husband? Finally be wise. Love is shacking you now becarefull lest it turns into a nightmare. The DEVIL was such a WONDERFUL man to Eve. But at the end of the whole thing. It was blames and regrets all around. Wake up Dear. 3 Likes |

The sooner you realise some parts will be missing as nothing can be perfect, the better. For me i'll say stick to the relationship as far as he's not encroaching into your space and respects your view. Who knows if you'll be the one to convert him? Though i doubt that... Most people go to church and profess the religion because other people do not because they know why they should or not. |

sorextee:Self righteousness is when you believe that your "good works/deeds" on earth ordinarilly can take you to heaven(james 2 vs 14-26, you must apply faith in your works/deeds)...it's supposed to be a long piece but no-time... Now, the good works here are... 1.You think you can just relate normally with people without either preaching the gospel, praying/fasting/going to church and involving yourself in any church role call 2.You think as far as you can wake up safe and sound in the morning, maybe greet your neighbours, go to work and comeback and everything is moving fine that you are not under any obligation to either give to ceasar what's his and to GOD what's GOD's, lies from the pit of hell...this is where the atheist comes in 3. You assume and believe that all you 've acquired so-far in life is by your strength and self ability, for by strength shall no man prevail, 1st samuel 2 vs 9... Just meditate on this ones first, if you ain't satisfied, qoute me. |
