Don't let the fundies get to you when they tell you to break off the relationship. As long as you are happy.
Who knows, maybe, one day after being exposed to a different religion for such a long time, you will both start to realise how irrational religion is, and will both unite and become free-thinkers/skeptics/humanists.

Did you have more to write? Just curious.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I just got married 36 days ago myself. He's catholic and I'm atheist. And yes, you're going to hear it from the theists to not get married because you can't be unequally yolked and all that stuff. But, honestly, as long as you both have discussed it in depth, and discussed how you plan on raising your children (religiously speaking), and you can both keep an open mind, then you'll be just fine. It's the unwaivering, unbending, unreasonable theists and atheists that refuse to tolerate each other that have the hardest time. I hope you both have a wonderful and fulfilling life together!!
@ Cheesphh - why wouldn't atheists have "honor and obey" in the vows? That doesn't make any sense to me. I promised to honor, obey, love, submit, and everything to my husband. We also got married in a church with an old youth pastor of mine doing the ceremony. See, I'm not going to let religion come between the love of my life. It's just not that important to me. But that doesn't mean that I love him any less or that I won't respect, honor, and obey him. You're odd.

You should not be marrying him, you will never convert him
Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
You are setting yourself up for failure if you are a Christian, Good men are hard to find, but if you are a Christian you should be waiting on GOD

Good for you both. Don't let your different religious beliefs take over your life and ruin your love for each other.

I don't see what the problem is as long as you both respect each other's right to your own belief and not try to convert each other.

You need more details in your question, like, do you guys attend the same church or do you just have different believes and church isn't important to you. What exactly are your two believes?

Two irrational people in a relationship! It is going to fail. How long it takes is the only question.

One of you will end up throwing your faith out the window. Just as if one smokers, the other will start.
