Side note: Our toilet is called the library
That's quite a coincidence, actually; in my town, our library is called a toilet.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
Do you have a younger sister who's name begins with 'T'? Had to ask. I have a cousin named Angelina that I haven't seen for over 20 years. Our last encounter was when she was working at the MCL at the Salem Mall.
No matter, welcome. I told my wife of my atheism in 1995, a year after we got married. I should have waited until we were alone in an elevator (lift). That's a sad attempt at an atheist 'movement' joke. I had never seen my wife near a church, we had never discussed religion, but I was unprepared for her negative emotional response to my declaration. I could never imagine a better soul to share life with than her, much as I assume you feel for your husband based on limited information. My wife is still ignorant of the contents of the bible. Without more conversation, allow me to suggest another means of reconciling your situation. You shared that your husband is reading the Bible. I hope he does this front to back, it gets off to a very bad start considering reality. No matter. Read it with him and discuss it. Seriously. You haven't portrayed him as an idiot; so, have fun with it.
Hey Angenlina and welcome to AF!
We have a some residents who are atheists happily married to religious people, so maybe they can give you tips on how to keep the domestic peace without stepping on each other's toes.

And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

My wife's Cathoholic family was coming over and she noticed I had left my copy of "Godless" in the family room. She bitched at me because "they don't believe in that!". Yeah, but it's okay for me to go over their house and have to look at their Babbles on prominent display. Anyway, welcome! Always nice to have one more rational person on board!
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

He seems a bit manipulative, if I'm honest. (August 29, 2012 at 9:03 am)frankiej Wrote: Welcome. I actually keep the bible next to our toilet. You know; for emergencies. All that nice, soft paper.
