those shirts are brilliant! where can I get those?
yes because I would really make up a story like this for fun...
A church wedding was never open to us because I came from Australia and he is a Swiss. in these situations the only option is a town hall wedding by the local government. all up, we had spent about 4 months in each others actual company. and that's stretching it a bit, because I went to other countries while I stayed with him. during this time, he didn't attend church except at christmas time, and I went with him purely to be close to him, I thought it was just something he did at that time of year etc, and I regretted going with him after I went because it felt like such a betrayal of my own beliefs.
of all religions, catholicism is my least favourite.
I genuinely believe he didn't understand that it wasn't just that I hadn't been brought up with a specific religion, but that I didn't believe in god at all.
Quote:Seriously? How can you have possbily married someone who is devout and NOT known this?? How can this be for real??? I'm having a hard time buying that this is for real.
I don't know ANY devout christians who would marry someone without even asking them what they believe.

Quote:2: You got married after only spending a week together in a shotgun marriage.this is sort of true. though we had known one another online for a year previously.
Quote:3: You both kinda knew what the other one was, but didn't want to address it because you knew somewhere in your mind that it could end the relationship.this is also sort of true, but more of me than him, and I don't really actually care, as long as we just don't talk about it and he respects my beliefs as much as I'm prepared to respect him. he can go to church, I don't give a rats if he does. but I do care if he starts insisting that I do, or that I lie about what I am.

Quote:Frankly, I wish that the fruits of my work useful and glorious appearing of the world that the fruits of my labor awaken the mind and unlock the feeling of those who are deprived of light.
Ridiculous to say, outside the sky was nothing.
There is not one world, one earth, one sun, but as many worlds as we see bright sparks on us.
