Sean Faircloth:
Attack of the Theocrats!
Atheists having religious weddings is undignified. A promise before god is a poor joke when there’s no god. He’s turning something that should be a meaningful and memorable ceremony into a farce, a room full of people listening respectfully as a grown man drones on about his invisible friend. In the weddings I’ve been to, Yahweh was anything but peripheral. He has no time for their silliness in his daily life, but this day of all days he’s going to sit there and not call them out on their bullshit? I agree with Woodworm, try to take marriage a little more seriously.
