And, honestly, it’s the least you can do given it’s one of the few things in the entire ceremony that you will have control over. > [@Atheist getting married in Catholic church - need help with readings](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/atheist-getting-married-in-catholic-church-need-help-with-readings/525665/76): > > [Official Moderator Warning]I gave the last word on this hijack. Infraction.[/Official Moderator Warning] Seriously, **Czarcasm** , that post by **PunditLisa** was on topic: it’s all about the choice of text, and not about an atheist marrying in a Catholic church. The bit about “brimstone and hellfire” was saying that a Catholic wedding isn’t going to have bits about b&h included, and she’s surprised that anyone would think they were. I think you’ve become a tad overzealous in trying to prevent the thread-jacking here. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/an-op-which-invites-a-off-topic-diversion/525739)._
