    As far as weddings go, I'd like to get married in a nice restored castle. It would have all the character of a church and none of the coldness of a registry office. I'd also have poems instead of readings, and utterly romantic lovesongs instead of hymns.

    I didn't have any hymns at my wedding, I had modern songs, bit of U2 thrown in there, and when I'm 64 as I left the church (wasn't tacky I promise!!!)
    also I knew the priest quite well and he a lovely very funny, not normal kind of a priest - if you know what I mean?? The church I got married in is a modern building right beside where i lived - it wasn't cold or stuffy. Maybe I would have felt differently about the church wedding if all of the above were different? It was more of a fun ceremony that happened to be in a church, than a religious ceremony. I will still go to mass on occasion, but only to that church, I can't even explain why, not because I feel I want to talk to god, or even owe god anything at all, of all people I would feel the very opposite for personal reasons, but I just like that church, like it's surroundings, and sometimes it makes me feel happy just to be there once in a while.

    Each to their own, whatever people's reasons are, it's not for anyone else to judge!

    Well sorry Mr.Expert, i know more than you think.
    First of all how are there a few bibles? There is only ONE bible, the one written in Hebrew and translated to english. Just because a few words are different doesnt change the meaning of the content. The old testament became irrelevant when Jesus was born, Jesus brought the word of god into the world and all the "pretty ****ed up ****" (Not as bad as "some" religions of today) was changed in the new testament with Jesus' teachings.

    How many of these "Atheists" have actually read the bible to make their own personal decision on whether to believe in god or not?
