Exactly, I think it would be much harder to be married to someone that is more die hard for or against religion. I once asked my husband if he cared that I won't go to heaven with him and he said "No, the pope said that you just have to be a good person to get into heaven. You are a good person so I know you will be there with me." I still don't agree that I will be in heaven since I don't think there is one but it makes him happy to think of us up there together forever so that is fine with me. If he pestered me to go to church or tried to sway me we would have broken up very quickly.
I will say one small note. I think I am rubbing off on him. He doesn't go to mass anymore, I haven't seen him pray over his food in a long time, and his St Anthony necklace has been sitting on a shelf. He still says he is Catholic but I think he might be turning at least agnostic or maybe just believe in some kind of higher power not necessarily Christian. I won't lie, I'm hoping this is what is happening. I would love for him to denounce religion but that is such a selfish thought I would never in a million years say it to him and I would/do love him no matter what he thinks or believes. I do joke and say "oh I will make an atheist of you yet." But that is in good fun and we both laugh.
