I believe God looks at the inside not outside.

There's nothing wrong and it's even interesting since you both learn from each other's differences and cultures. If it works for both of you, then it means it's TRUE LOVE!

i think it doesnot matter ...however I know if i were to marry someone of another race ,i know my family wouldn't be welcoming as they would be if it were of my own race , better if they are of their same religious belief...Although i wouldn't let their intolerance sway my desciion ..Its love regardless of colour...

I think that when it comes to the matters of the heart, hearts know no color. My mother used to be against interracial marriages, but then she had to accept it because she was not given a choice. It was something her siblings (my aunts and uncle) had to come to understand and accept also. I was raised by my father and he did not see colors. I grew up with him seeing people as people. Not what color their skin was. So, when I was exposed to my mother and her side of the family, I didn't understand why they had such an issue. And to this day...I still do not understand. I think it is ignorance!

Real true love does not see color just as it does not see age or anything else. I don't have a problem with these relationships and don't feel that anyone else should either.

I believe this as well. Skin color has nothing to do with love and attraction. If two people of different races want to get married, they should be able to without getting dirty looks from people.

amen to that god does look at us from the inside out but people look at us from the outside in but god loves us all the same he sees us all the same so i dont think he is concerned about who you marry whether black or white as long as you love one another from the heart as long as you are sincere and genuine to one another i think that is all that matters too god and that is all that should matters to us too but we do not live in perfect in a perfect world all we can do is pray that god open the blinded of people who are in racial ignorance!!!!

All of us are creations of God and we must not differentiate people on the basis of races. We have to respect God for his choice of variety when it comes to creation of the world. There is God in all of us and what is true is the inner self and not the external appearence. There are certain expectations of the society and if your social circle accepts and respects your decision to marry from another race, caste or creed it is good to go ahead. If there is any concern of your social circle and if they feel it would not work, it is necessary to give due respect to their opinion because after all you are going to live with them and seek their passion and love as long as you live.

I do share your opinion. As long as there is love and respect, nothing should be in between a loving couple, age, culture, language nor religion or race.

Why not? As long as that marriages based on love.

A great poet once said "If love is not, nothing else exists", so if they love every day more and more they would conquer everything.

I definately think it shouldn't matter what race two people are. If they love each other & want to make their lives together, that should be all that matters.

Being predjudice about skin color is about as stupid as not liking someone just because they have a certain eye or hair color. I agree with you.
