No, but it's a huge sin when a penguin can't find the phone quickly enough when an angel calls :)

For the evangelist, probably. For the atheist, of course not.

A true follower of Christ is told (in scripture) to marry inside the church...
2Co 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
If you were already married to this person before you accepted Christ (and they wish to stay with you) then you should stay married..
1Co 7:13 And the woman which hath a husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
1Co 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
1Co 7:15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
1Co 7:16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?

It is not a sin, but it will bring forth much badness and many problems. Compatibility is so very important and to do things in an upright Christian marriage produces much good fruit.

No, though I think difference of opinion in certain things can make things difficult in the relationship(depending on how strongly either party believes in their belief system). Not to worry, I'm sure these things can be worked through.

Yes, it is Ms Jelly..I cannot say what you want me to say, but I must give you the truth...The word of God teaches us "to not be unequally yokes with non-believers"..Being yoked to a non-believer will draw division into the home..God Almighty teaches us in his word, "that a house divided cannot stand"..
If you marry him there will be problems in the marriage..An atheist does not have the same spirit as a christian does..

no it's not a sin. Maybe unwise. just remember you can not change someone. the choice is theirs. if God won't force it neither can you. Just know you will face many obsticles and he may never change, but you could be the example ge needs too.

I'm sorry to have to say this, but this is just the sort of question that makes religion look rather a bad deal and me glad I'm an atheist.

is it a sin for a human to fall in love with another human?

It's a crime if the atheist returns the feelings. LOL.
