Surely for the devoted,they choose religion.and for the deeply inloved they will choose lover.but you think guys you have to choose between these too?does religion be a hindrance for the lovers?Some religions are implementing that the members must marry someone with the same religion or if not,the one must be converted to the other.What do you think about mylotters?

Well, I am a Muslim and my Girlfrend is Hindu. But I Love her for what she is. Not for what religion does she belong to. So, it doesn't matter. And as far as we are respect each others religion and provide equivalent space for it, I think it all worthed. God has given everyoe two ears, a nose, two eyes a heart, we all breath in air, drink water eat food....So If God has made us all same, Why should we differ on basis of religion.

Hi,
I choose religion because i brought up under very devotional family. I really don't agree with switching on religions for marriage, for which they can better quit their love. Because i feel love should not be restricted.
Cheers ;)
Happy mylotting!

For many years, my husband and I chose our religions. We even married other people and remained best friends. Eventually, we realized that we can share discussions of religion's differfences, but we both believe in God deeply, and we need not be made miserable by being apart. I can go to church with him, and he can go to temple with me, and it's just fine. We've been very happily married since a priest convinced us of this, and we'll never look back!

well im not any religious person , so there is no problem to me in changing or getting converted to any religion . but the matter is that i will never except any religion since i don't believe in god. so i will surely go for my lover and as far as my family is concerned, i don't care , if my family tells that i cant marry any specific girl whom i love the most , then i will leave them .

In my opinion, religion and to choice a lover don t have nothing in common.
Are 2 things very different!
Do you love me? if yes, respect my religion..
If i ll love you, i will respect your religion too.
I am not a religious person, i belive in God, and i have a special relation with Him, but in my soul.
I don t was in this kind of situation, but i am sure that 2 peoples who are in love and want to marry, will find a middle way, to be both happy!
So, no problem here for religion and love.

My boyfriend doesn't share my view of Wicca, nor does he really have any religious beliefs. But I love him, and we work around it. It does bother me a lot that he doesn't have an opinion, but I believe that if you have enough love in your heart, you can love your religion and the people who don't believe in it.

Good question. me and my boyfriend we are from a different religion and we have never been bothered about that so much as our parents and people who got nothing to do but just gossiping, I believe in life and the almighty and he does the same too, we think religion should never be interfering betwwn two person who are in love. We accept that even we will be together we will never be sacrificing religion or whatever but we will simply stay ourselves and continue to live as before. Be broad minded for those who still thinking that it is bad to love someone beyong your religion.

I presume you're a Christian. Whether you'll base it in a religious context, you'll see that God never told us to be "choosy" when it comes to love and relationship. In fact, he even taught us to love one another.
This is one of the things which I don't understand in Catholicism. I don't see any reason why they would prevent priests from marrying.

yes but my concern is for my fellow christian who has a relationship with a muslin and the family they belong are both against of their relationship.and now the question that i posted here was the question they both(The lovers) had in mind asking their circle of friends and gathering some opinions.

I will openly admit I'm not a religious person, but I think I would choose my lover over my religion. Love is stronger than any other force in the world, and can never be ignored.
