My boyfriend and I love each other a lot..we are very respectful of each other and have fun together. But there is one problem: i'm Catholic, and he's not. It gets worse: he is athiest. I accept it, but we plan on getting married one day. Is this possible? Also, we want to have kids, but I really want to raise my kids to be Catholic and believe in God..any advice? I have faith and I Just have this feeling that he will see the light and start believing in God..any advice? Thanks!
 
Hun, all you can do is pray for him. But I wouldn't count on anything... My father was an athiest when he married my mom, and eventually my mom brought him into the church. However, not many stories are like that.

Plus, will a Catholic preist marry you two? As a fellow Christian, I think it will become difficult for someone to continue a relationship with someone without the same types of belief system. I would talk about it with him. See if he would be willing to go to church with you one day, and if he is totally opposed to it, then I think you have your answer.

There was a reason there were warnings in the Bible about being unequally yoked. Many marriages end in divorce because of this very fact. :( Hope this helps
 
Sure you can get married. You will need to discuss the whole marriage and kids things with him, see how he feels and figure it out.

I think you will be fine as long as it doesn't somehow interfere with your relationship with God
