if they wanted to change so huge a part of me as my spiritual path, then I would know that they do not love me.

We have to give importance to her/his religion. Because every one have their own tastes and different believes. So as per my opinion we do not force them or to do not put pressure on them to change or to convert from their religion to our religion. My teacher is a Christian She married a Muslim, now they two have a 5yrs baby, even though their religions are different.

No i would not and i dont think that anyone who truly bekieved in a particular religion would.If you are religous you believe that what you are following is the word of god and that it is a terrible sin to disobey and in a religous persons mind converting to another religion would be disobeying their god.Because of how important my faith is to me i would respect their faith,i wouldnt try and make them change religions i would talk about the benefits of christianity and allow her to make her own mind up i would also either have a ceremony in which a leader of both religions officiated or two ceremonies one for each religion.

Religion is my right and choice so I will only enter or join a religion based on my own judgement and not for anything else. I am a catholic while my husband belong to another christian sect but we have no issues about it. My daughter practices same religion with me not because i intimidated her but because she chose to be.

in that case, for me.... i can never change my religion... i can only add that religion's strong points to my previous beliefs.... and reject the useless to what i believe nonsense... thus... absorb what is useful... reject what is useless... add what is your own... you may compare it in the world of Martial Arts... this is what they called "Jeet Kune Do" a combination of all strong points of all Martial Disciplines.... into a one...

I can't answer this one for i really can't relate on this pretty alquizar. But if ever I will be in this kind of confusing issue I would not change into his religion. It would be great if we respect each others belief and spiritual orientation. :)

I have never been and I will never be religious. Nothing would change this. If someone believed that that I needed to hold the exact same beliefs as them in order to be loved by them, then it isn't very strong love and it isn't a very open-minded person, and I wouldn't want to be with that type of person anyway.

Religion is very personal choice of belief.so nobody should interfair in it.and love is just related to heart and feeling.no matter what our religion is.if my partner say me to change my religion,i would like to finish that relation.that clear.

I think I won't change my religion; and why not two different religion live peacefully? There are a lot of couples in my countries where their religion is different; but it didn't bring any crush in between.
