Well, I'm Wiccan, and I have no problem dating someone who has any kind of belief. What I believe is mine. No one elses. If we were to marry, then I have no problem baptizing my children, so long as he allows me to do a Wiccaning. Eventually, as the child gets older, they will choose their own path anyways. I was baptized as a catholic, and it hasn't been a detriment to me in any way. I believe that if you love someone, and you each understand that you have your own veiws, and neither of you tries to sway the other to their side... Things can work out just fine. It may not always be easy, but what in life is ever easy?

@MrRamtasticAkaRam318: i agree. The people on this forum are great, but ive had the same experience with atheists. Quick to judge but upset at anyone who disagrees.

Alot of atheists probally don't wanna admit this,but they are following a "religion" too.They believe there is no God,when we Christians,DO believe there is one.Either God exists or he doesn't.You can call him God or call him anything you WANNA call him.There is a creator or there is not a creator.We believe by faith as many atheists claim that we do.Well I would say that atheists believe by "faith" as well,that one day they will discover how the first law of Thermodynamics was violated in the Universe,for something to come from nothing.So I think it would be fair to say that atheists have a faith based belief too.They won't admit it.But they do.There is no difference.

Question, this may be stupid, but is is agnostic when you believe in God, you pray to him, but you dont believe all of what is said in churches so you dont go to church yourself because of it?

@sammay: That wud make u "not alone" lol Do u believe in God at all, or some sort of higher power in general? Or u jus don't know? Its ok not to know. Its all a personal decision that has to be worked out in ur own time.

@sammay: im sorta in the same position. Im baptist because i was born into it. I definitely believe in God but the more I educated myself the more i realized how full of crap a lot of these so called pastors are. There are maybe one or two that actually had a good sermon but other than that... I could say a lot about that but i guess the short version is, you're not alone lol

@Baylorgurl07: exactly! I believe in God, but I have a hard time with what they say. I guess its that whole 'do as I say, not as I do' thing that most pastors/preachers do. And how they left out some important books out of the bible because some guy didnt think they were important. But in my opinion, if they took the time to write it down then it was important and should have been included...just my opinion though. But until I find the right church, Ill just have to worship in my own way.

Well it depends if the athiest really doesnt believe there is a God. Or if they at one point did believe but got mad at God or didnt understand y something happened and then stopped beliving
