Many people have been bothered just because they love a person who happens that he belong to a diffirent religion and beliefs. Thus, their relationship ends up in painful experience because their are other people close to them who are against their love relationship because of religion. Do you think that this is just for those who love each other?

firstly, a relevant discussion, much appreciated. rudy, i feel that true love transcends all boundaries, culture and religion. true love can overcome all adversities which include spiritual differences aswell. idealistically, religion should not be a hurdle. but practically, there have been some subtle , practical problems and this perhaps makes ppl hesitant in inter-religious or inter-communal marriages. pressure comes from family, society and even personal conflicts kinda create differences in the couple. after all we all are humans and mostly very patriotric and spiritual at heart. however, things are changing at rapid rate and we are learning to accept alien culture and religion, courtesy: universalism and dissolution of global barrier.

Thanks for such a wonderful view with regards to this subject on love and religion. It really lightens up the load for those who have been hesitant to pursue their desire for love and marriage just because of religious diffirences. Yes, it is true that pressure comes from the people that surrounds us and for me especially our own family and our own church cirle. Your fantastic.

FAITH is what is important to me. People I know and people he knows need to have faith in us, that we will do what is right for us. He and I are both comfortable with eachother's religious beliefs, as well as our own. We are of two different religions, but we are making things work by incorporating both religions into our lives as a couple.

Thank you very much and I hope that by this response of yours it will lighten up those who are bothered by their diffirence of religion. I believe that the respect for one another can bring us to unity and love even if we live in diffirent beliefs of life. Respect for one another is very important especially when it comesto the matter of love and religion.
