Atheist With a Christian spouse

[derby378]

7. I was a Christian married to an atheist spouse

If I can ask you a few things...

Is she still the center of your world? Does she still have your heart? And do you still have hers?

If the answer to all three is "Yes," then you're going to be in good shape. Every married couple has interpersonal conflicts to work through, and the two of you have something very much in common with the two of us. We made it work. I think part of the secret is that we were both able to make each other think and keep each other on our toes mentally.

And this Quaker is cool with a few atheist authors on the bookshelf, too. I used to be president of a skeptics' club - comes with the territory. Science!

I'm sure you guys will figure it out. FYI, I'm a widower, not divorced. I still miss Ginny, but it's been a little over three years, and it's getting easier. Good luck to you both, and tell your wife I said .
