Will her family accept me?
Hi,
My girlfriend is Catholic and I'm a non-believer (I don't like the term atheist). We've accepted that we each have different world views (for now), and can live with that. However, she's concerned that her family won't accpet me if they know I don't believe in God.
I was born into a Catholic family, so I guess I can say I'm Catholic. Personally, I don't think it's a big deal one way or the other, but I don't like to lie about things I believe and don't believe. I guess what I'm saying is that this would only come up with her family if they specifically asked me about my beliefs. So my question is...
If it does come up, should I just lie? Or do you guys think they would accept me even though I don't believe what they do? How would YOU feel about me if I might marry your daughter? Would this be a deal breaker for you? Thanks.
