Do you think it would be easy if your partner had a different religion? Would you rather break up with her/him because of that?

Thank you for your response to my post. I think I would also do the same. If I really loved that person i would respect him/her and accept them as a whole including their religion, as I would also expect them to accept me. I don't think though that I would convert myself to their religion. If I loved that person and we have religion differences, we would just find a way to work things out and respect each others beliefs on God. Would you do the same guys? Good luck to all of you and more power!

Thank you for responding to the discussion. I would also do the same and respect my partner's religion. It is just a matter of working things out and accepting each other including their beliefs in God.

Thank you for your responce. So you mean that you would convert to another Christian religion? It may be a Christian religion also but do you think it would be better if you just accept each other's religion and try not to convert one to the other?

So if you would not change, would you expect him/her to change for you?

I'm deeply religious person, so I won't trade my belief for my love. That's why I choose a partner with the same religion Iam in so conflict will be avoided.

i actually did. i was a catholic before and now i am a christian. my ex and i are no longer together, but that religion he has shared to me is the best thing he has ever taught me. i believe God gave him to me for me to know Him more. :)
but madonna, keep in mind it's not your religion that will save you, it's your faith. the fact that you accept Jesus as your savior and follow what God says..His manual is the bible. :)
Godbless!

That's a question... I would say, in my country religion doesn't matter very much, so there such a problem can't arise at all. I'm baptized an orthodox, my BF is baptized lutheran, and it's OK. What somebody believes, or believes not, it's his/her own business only. For us religion is a part of the culture. And to move in another country, with totally different culture is problematic for anyone. With my background, my education, and in my age, I don't believe, I could be very happy somewhere else than in Europe... As more to North than better. So I guess, my answer will be no.

I was a Christian earlier and have converted to a Hindu after my marriage not that my husband forced me to do it or even asked me to. It does not mean that my belief's have changed.
I believe Religions are many and diverse but there is only one supreme GOD

No definitely not.Im a Hindu and my partner is a Christian.Both of us are on our own religion.We never force each other to convert.Instead,he will follow me to temple and I follow him to church.Basically,all religion ask mankind to do good things..so its all stands for 1.There's no religion says to do bad things to others.
