If i were you I'd contact the state or area government and ask them. Each state/area has dif. rules on this sort of thing. Religion does help in legal battle but it is not needed. As long as you have good ideals and can prove to be a good godparent then you should be fine. If you need more help contact the area government or Lawyer.
No, no, no, no, no. It was a product of the Third Republic, which was very strictly non-religious.
Legal and legal rules have the similarity is all rules are concerned with establishing codes of behaviour for people.

The standard role of a godparent in non-religious families is not too difficult or formal. Basically, he or she should act as a role model, a mentor, a responsible figure in the life of the child (and be available for occasional baby-sitting).
Yes, a Catholic can serve as a godparent to a non-Catholic, but the non-Catholic must have at least one Catholic godparent.
Yes. Anyone can be a godparent. It's solely based on the decision of the parents.
.Catholic AnswerIf you mean can a protestant be a Godparent for a Catholic, then the answer is no. The Godparent's job is to bring the child up in the Catholic faith, and the first basic requirement of a Godparent is that they are a good practicing Catholic.
A:If they have been divorced and there is no legal impediment to their remarrying, yes, non-religious people are free to remarry.

No, because a Godparent's purpose is to help assure that the child is raised as a Catholic. If the Godparent is not a Catholic there is no assurance that this responsibility will be complied with by the non-Catholic person.

Yes, and they would be called a Christian Witness.
it is legal because a teacher should not make a bias remark in a public or non religious school class.
An atheist would be just as suitable to be a godparent because an atheist would not try to brainwash the child. S/He would say: A number of people hold different beliefs about religion. These people think this, and others think that. ==Opinion== There is no reason why they cannot be godparents. They must however promise to see that the child is brought up in the faith. To be taught the gospel , to pray, to study the scriptures, and to be ready to assist the parents in all of these matters. Their own disbelief must play no part in this covenant that is made. ==Opinion== It would hardly be appropriate for an atheist to be a godparent for a child of Christian parents. An atheist would not understand the gospel well enough to teach it to the child to "see that the child is brought up in the Christian faith." Christ must help us to understand the scriptures: "Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures," Luke 24:45 This should be obvious to true Christian parents. Besides, before whom would the covenant be made, if the godparent does not believe in God? ==Opinion== Usually a Godparent is understood to be responsible for a child's spiritual and moral education. Its fairly easy to think of non-believers (David Attenborough or Betrand Russell for example) who would be good people to do that. One can equally well think of theists (Peter Sutcliffe or Charles Manson spring to mind) who obviously would not. So, based on that, I would say that someone religious beliefs are largely irrelevant to whether someone should be a Godparent compared with the quality of their characters.
