My wife is religious. I’m sure what to say about it. It’s a non issue in our lives. She thinks what she wants. I think what I want. Kids were a little tricky, but we worked through it. They got introduced to the idea of religion when they were younger and I made no bones about not believing and we agreed they could decide for themselves. AFAIK they are both atheist but who knows when they experience significant loss - a lot of people turn to religion then. The older kids from her first marriage are all believers I think but also pretty casual I think. I think my oldest married an atheist, but the truth is I just don’t have reason to talk about religion or lack thereof with anyone.

ETA: we were married by a pagan. I also married my daughter dressed as Darth Vader after dueling her husband for her hand. So it’s just not a big thing.

Dravin ,

Yes. I became an atheist after we’d been married for several years. It made for a bit of a rough time until we settled into the new status quo.

I can’t wait to get to the point where the status quo isn’t rough.

If you don’t mind me asking, were kids in the mix? It’s been rough anyways, but kids are certainly making it much more so.

Dravin ,

Thankfully no kids in the mix. I can imagine how that complicates things.

sunbrrnslapper ,

No, that is a deal breaker for me.

CanadaPlus ,

I’d consider it, but if they’re serious about it, I’m sure they wouldn’t love the way I look at them when they explain how well their spell/saint’s toe is working.

Wild people rule out others based on religion. I don’t give af as long as they’re good people

What's wrong with wanting to share the same values, and to live in the same reality as your partner?

saltesc ,

I guarantee you that there are things you think are for real that aren’t. So to disregard shared values for sake of a specific one of these things is…interesting. May your ex’s continue with their good fortune.

CanadaPlus ,

It’s easy enough to find a religious person who’s nice, but a shared reality is basically impossible if you really believe in science.

It can be a big issue if the lean a little harder into religion and start thinking they need to save your soul.

Yes, she’s wiccan, but certainly not pushy about it.

TheWeirdestCunt ,

Yes but she doesn’t go to church often, she convinced me to come with once and it took me from being an atheist who isn’t opposed to Christianity to being fully convinced that it’s just a worldwide cult

CanadaPlus ,

Lol, what kind of church did you go to? Was it just the singing and slideshow kind, or were they doing something more hardcore?

My parents are that way, dad is an atheists and mom is a christian that doesn’t actively attend any church (and hasn’t in decades).

No, but I wouldn't rule someone out because of it as long as they were respectful

Fuck no 😂

Weirdfish ,

No, I don’t think that would work for me.
