Do athiests marry?

Answer 1

of course! they are still people! they just get married in a court by a judge.

Answer 5

What a stupid question.

You really think every couple who gets married in a church are true believers?

Kind of odd that all those people who swear to have and to hold til death do them part get divorced a few months later - I presume you think its all part of satans plan.

Answer 6

I'm an atheist, and I'm married. My husbands a druid. Marriage has nothing to do with religion.

Answer 7

Why not? Do you think any animal that mates for life needs to have a Christian ceremony to simply make a promise?

My wife and I were married on her parents' acreage in Oregon, with a Wiccan priestess giving us our non-denominational ceremony. We made our vows to each other, and God never entered into it.

We have been happily married for over seven years, and I want nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with this woman. Who needs God?

Answer 8

Uh, yes?

Marriage is a legal institution. It originated as a transfer of property contract. The religious overtones came much later.

Answer 9

Some do, some don't. Its only a piece of paper anyway,and don't need to get married in a church.

Answer 10

Some.
