I wouldn't say it was wrong, so much as I see big compatibility issues, due to to the depth of either's core belief structure - that's a BIG part of each other lives which you cannot share together (I'm an atheist by the way).

This is almost like asking if a Catholic can have a deeply profound relationship with a Jew. It's a good question, and I do think it's possible. The trick to it is, respect. Pure and simple. If you can simply respect how the other person feels, and what they believe, then that relationship is possible. I try very hard to not pick at someone's beliefs if they don't preach at me. For example, my boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years. He's a Christian, I'm an atheist. He doesn't preach at me, and I don't pick apart the bible to him. It's only one of several things we disagree on, yet I still love him with all my heart. If you don't allow yourself to learn about and respect other people's beliefs and feelings, you're closing yourself off pretty effectively to a world of interesting, fun, fascinating people. Listen, as an atheist, I can tell you that the last thing on my mind when I meet someone new is what their religion is. And I don't let that preclude me from trying to be their friend.

I consider myself deeply spiritual and I married an atheist. I feel we have a deeply profound relationship. We do have our disagreements about there being gods, but he finds my beliefs more practical than most. The main thing is we respect one another and are each secure enough in our own beliefs that we don't feel the need to "convert" one another to eachother's way of thinking. So yes, I do believe it's possible as long as there is respect and no insecurity there. I have analyzed the choice of atheism vs. theism for myself. Having been an atheist at one point I feel I have a unique perspective and can completely understand a person's decision to be an atheist. I respect that choice.

I don't see why a person's religion or lack of should come between two people in love. There are ways around the differences, you just have to be willing to compromise, and possess an open mind and understanding. Jews and Christians marry all the time and find a nice balance for their beliefs. I see no reason why believers and non-believers can't do the same.
In fact, I have never had a relationship with another atheist, and I have been in some that were very long-term. Our differing beliefs never entered the picture.

I do believe that a religious person and an atheist can have a relationship. But one has to be really free minded. They should be able to tolerate the other's point of view.
If the atheist doesn't believe in god, then he doesn't have to go to a praying facility, but he should not stop the other person from going.
IT depends on what level of tolerence one has. If both people have high tolerence for opposing view point, then a relationship between atheist and religious person is possible.
I don't think either side is wrong. It's what they believe.

I firmly consider that there's an Ultimate Super Power at the back of the production, development, and functioning of this Cosmos. Thinkers of the beyond have referred to as it God, Ishwar, Parameshwar, Allah, Nature, Bramha and so forth. It is all robust, consistently reward within the sort of vigor and bodily legislation similar to gravity, electromagnetic subject, electrons, atoms and so on. makes no errors, does now not violate any bodily legislation. It isn't an person, who can also be cheerful or now not cheerful by way of worship and prayers or no worship and no prayers. It does now not want any one or will get indignant with any one, It does now not deliver some thing to any one or takes away some thing from any one. The suggestion of God exists best within the human mind and now not within the mind of any of the existence varieties in the world Earth. Am I a non secular atheist?

Here's why-you got to know my way of thinking-I am deeply religious:
Lets look at things this way - I am a citizen of the three physical dimensional (plus the fourth dimension being time) cosmos which itself may be one cosmos in the multitude of multiple dimensional cosmos (plural).
My cosmos contains my universe which contains my local cluster of galaxies which contains the Milky Way Galaxy (My Galaxy), on one of the outer peripheries of one of my galaxy's spiral arms is Sol (my star) which contains my planet Earth which contains the continent of Asia which contains my country India which contains Karnataka - the state in which I currently reside in, which contains my city of residence Bangalore which contains the suburb I live in, which contains the street I live on, which contains my house.
My universe is estimated to be around 10-15 billion years, old, my star -Sol or Sun a middle aged second generation 5 billion year star, life on my planet is estimated to have evolved around 3-4 billion years ago, my species around 2-4 million years ago and I'll consider myself fortunate if I live even for one-tenth of a millennium.
On a cosmic scale, even my galaxy may appear as just a blemish and may be unnoticeable in the fabric of space, and I would not even be the size of a speck- but - the ripple that I (any human) could cause in the still waters (the cosmos) could change the course of history, of space of existence/s. So why should I limit myself to a country or a race or a caste or a religion or a continent or a creed (narration intentionally not in order)? As I said - I am a citizen of the cosmos, or a multitude of cosmos (plural)
There can never be anyone else like me at this point in space in this given instant of time ever. I am unique (and so is every other creature!).
Oh! The Creator of these wonders! I thank thee!
Life's Lovely! Love & Live Life!

I love all people all all beliefs even atheist, I am a christian who believes in reincarnation and i will have 50 million christians yell at me that i am not a christian then but you know what , they dont know me and have no right at all to say who or who is not a christian. We should love each other because thats the right thing to do , religious beliefs should never have anything to do with that.

i do believe it is possible because love and religion can be too seperate parts of someone, not for me i would personaly rather have a christian so that our kids weren't confused on what to believe. I personaly think that it isn't any humans right to judge anyone on there belief it is God's decision in the end so i don't really worry about it. it kinda bugs me because my belief is to share God's word but atheists don't even beleive in God, but once again its not really my place
