How many times are ya gonna ask this, Kenny? Once a day?
Here's an update from yesterday (isn't there a Y!A rule, here?)
I've been married since '88 (living together since '79), and there's no problem, AFAIC - i.e. as an atheist, there's no reason why *I* shouldn't marry. But *you* do whatever you want, as long as your thoughts about "wrong" don't affect me.

What does marriage have to do with religion or the lack of it? You don't have to get married in church.

NO - it is not. Why not do some reading and research!?
Atheists are people who do not believe in a god or gods (or other immaterial beings), or who believe that these concepts are not meaningful.
Some atheists put it more firmly and believe that god or gods do not exist.

This is hypocrisy, Atheists seek refuge of religion when, where ever they get in trouble and call it morals.
How they trust each other when they are not bound to be honest, as they don't fear of God or hell etc.

No. People can have reasons other than spiritual ones to get married.

No. I am very happily married, and I am sure that my marriage will last longer than for many who claim to be christian.
Atheism. You know it makes sense.

It is only a legal issue for Atheist to get married. Though they may make vows to each other they are not sacred they are only promises.

Not neccessarily. Marriage, these days is considered a legal union. Its just that most religious people consider it a spiritual union as well.

What does being atheist have to do with legal documentation for marriage? I don't get it.
