Would your change religion for love?

That is something I have never been able to wrap my mind around. Religion, to me the word religion is just a title to nothing. The question to me would be would I give up my relationship with God for the love of another? No, and he hasn't asked me to. Other than telling me to not be yoked with an unbeliever and that isn't to punish me, it's to just make life easier for me. If I were so in love with someone outside of the way I believed, and we were both sincer, God would help us. He wouldn't throw me or him away.

no, that's not love. love is accepting and loving someone for who they are, not loving someone but only if they change their deeply held, spiritual beliefs. I would neither change my religion for someone I loved, nor expect them to change theirs. in Shakespeares sonnet 116, [i]"Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me proved, I never writ, nor no man ever love"[/i] when you love someone, you don't expect them to change to be worthy of that love. the flaws or differences of a person aren't a barrier to love, but a part of why you love them. and as time changes you both as individuals, the love remains. you don't change someone in order to love them, and you don't stop loving them if they change.

Dear friend, It might be a question whether one love religion or love his/her lover. I hope if both of them love each other religion is no barrier and religion itself goes on varying but every religion ends up in a single God. Hence I changing religion for love is just a change for love and if one is that adamant to religion I hope a lover which is much better would not bother about the change of religion. I hope it might depend upon how much each other loves.

[i]They said Love can move a Mountain.LOL It happens many times.Specially of those partners who are not in the same religion.There are also couple I know that have different religion.[/i]

i wont and im not. if somebody loves me really, he'll accept my religion also. theres no reason for me to change it. im not really that religious but i know my obligations. true, that you dont know if the guy will really be the man that you are going to end up with. what if not? theres no need to change for another religion.

let them come to CHINA,there ,there are no religion limit.they can live together very well

No, I would not change my religion for love. That is not love, that is compromise and dominance of one partner over the other. When two people fall in love, they do so without checking their background (checking is done in arranged marriage) and as they gradually know each other and think of marriage, everything about the other person should be acceptable as it is. The moment you want a person to change his/her religion, you are not loving that person but loving your religion more and the other person is trying to compromise by giving up religion which is an integral part of our identity. You change to another religion, you become another person with a new name and everything. Its just not done.

is that love or what? Honestly? No its not...its foolish and infatuation as far as I'm concerned...when two ppl love each other NEITHER should request the other change faiths nor should one want to....My bf is Christian, I'm Pagan/Buddhist and BECAUSE we love each other we respect each others choices etc....Its the same with my husbnad...he is agnostic and his family is very Christian...they know I'm not and respect that, my hsuband also respects that as do I with his choice ya know..

For me being a christian I would not change my religon. One I was married once to a atheist and being married unequally yoked (meaning not same beliefs in my oppinion) was one of the major reasons our marriage ended. I have learned that if you both have the same faith and believe the same way it brings two people closer because its one more thing that they have in common and can understand and neither is trying to convince the other their way is right and vice versa.

I wouldn't, but the answer is kind of moot because I wouldn't date anyone who would demand I change part of who I am just to please them. The whole point of a relationship should be to find someone who loves you for who you are, not for who they want you to become.

I don't have any strong religious convictions, despite my spirituality. So I wouldn't mind at all converting to someone's religion (so long as it is not at odds with my beliefs). And if I was planning to marry the person, I do want my future kids to have some kind of religious affiliation, so it would be nice to be involved in a church. There are very few instances I can imagine this coming up, though, because I think most religions allow marriage outside the church.

no i wont and by the way i think that two people if they really like each other they can marry without changing their religion and i think that the other one shouldnt pressure the other one to change his/her religion, its not about religion its about love and i think if somebody is not accepting to date or marry because the other one didnt change his/her religion i think he/she is not worth to date, because that means she/he is not accepting you as you are she/he wants make you as he/she likes its really wrong idea i think

Well - changing your religion comes with a lot of sacrifices. It is basically completely changing your lifestyle. I would not do it. I would rather stay true to myself and my own beliefs then conform to that of others. If God exists I am sure he would know how you really felt in your heart and if you are only believing in a religion for love and not because it is something you truly believe He would dislike this.

I would not change my religion for love. I am already married, I am a non denominational and my husband is Catholic. I love that he respects what my religion preference is and I think that if you love someone then you should respect their religious choices.
