That’s no joke. Atheists are the biggest evangelicals (small E) I’ve encountered. University professors “profess it” as their belief system.

You're asking good questions, but you may be overthinking it. People like to party.

What’s the purpose of weddings in the minds of young non-religious, non-traditional couples these days?


Let's be honest.
Weddings exist so girls can have their special little day that they've been dreaming of since they were little girls.
A colossal waste of money.

Religion is the origin of "rules for thee, but not for me". Keep ranting, old man.

Yeah we need more evangelical style weddings since those marraiges last.


What does evangelicalism have to do with the topic?

Even if I steel man your post, I agree that divorce is too often chosen by couples, the point is this: why are the secularists even bothering to get married, and how are they concocting a wedding “ceremony”?

Are you all ignoring the massive turn away from religion and traditional values over the past few decades?


Where is religion during the divorce? I think it should be agreed upon that if you get married in the church and want a divorce, you must first go back through the church. The priest has to be involved. Otherwise what's the point of doing it in church in the first place?

Wut? ??

Clearly a projection by a secular relativist who doesn't want to be held to any moral or even logical standard.

Take a swim in the waters or reality, and describe the last non-religious wedding you went to? Can you tell me about it?

They absolutely should. How the frick you know if you'll make it if you don't test the water? This isn't 1965 anymore. Nobody is marrying their high school sweetheart.

I went to a wedding of an agnostic Christian and atheist Jew (redundant?). Oddly they went to great lengths to avoid any religious symbolism, except when they stepped on the glass. Is that based on the Jewish religion or is it secular in nature?

FFS, do you think I enjoyed the fact that my best friend’s son “trans-ed” into a shemale and got married to a “gay” woman (who as marrying a man with a penis in a woman’s costume), in a farcical anti-religious trope of a wedding at a bar in New Orleans?
