I knew a family during my childhood that claimed to be ‘Atheists’, yet the mother said that she believed there may be a higher power at work sometimes, but didn’t acknowledge that it was GOD. I guess she wasn’t a traditional Atheist.
Still, why wouldn’t an Atheist marry a Muslim? It could happen, couldn’t it? I know many couples of different beliefs that are happily married, they just choose to each follow their own path. Do Atheists or Muslims require their spouses to be of the same mindset? I guess I don’t understand blanket comments like that – I see alot of grey here.
