Hey Michlow!
How are you and your family? Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to you!
I was not invited to your wedding.
However, if I had been invited to your wedding and you told me that the person you were marrying was a confessed atheist, there would be a long pause between your invite and my RSVP.
Your case would be different from attending the wedding ceremony of two unbelievers or of two pagans.
Please don't be offended. You know me and you know my heart. The more I think about it, if I had been invited I would have respectfully declined the invite.
I would still wish you the best of success (which in my mind would include the eventual salvation of your atheist husband) and I would definitely pray for you and your family.
Please forgive my
lack of graciousness.
Remember the "MADD" commercials from the 80's that ended with the phrase, "... a friend does not let a friend drive drunk" ?
Should you expect your
Christian friends to congratulate your marriage to an atheist? Not hardly-- especially if they are your true friends.
