I don't think I would have been attracted to someone with a different religion in the first place.

I'm not really religious, actually I'm an athiest. But I respect everyone for what they believe in and if they don't try to change my perspective, then I don't try to change theirs either. The amount of people who believe in some sort of religion dominate the number of those who don't. So more than likely, I'd end up with someone who believes in some sort of God. I am open to any beliefs and also those who might want to teach me about their religion. So, I think that being with someone of a different religion would be a learning experience for both of us. I would not change what I believe for my spouse though because this is my opinion and it won't change; if my spouse cared about me enough, he would respect my beliefs and leave it at that.

If you are true to your religion, there is no way that you could change it for your spouse.
However, you can each show respect toward your respective faiths.
The real question is how to decide in what religion your children will be raised.

I don't think I'd want to marry someone who isn't a Christian. That's a pretty non-neotiable thing for me. God comes first in my life, and I'd want to spend my life with someone who feels the same. My thought is that if you are willing to change your religion, you weren't a very strong believer in the first place.

No. I am a Christian and my husband was (he passed away) Jewish. We respected each other's right to believe in what we chose to believe in. He was a democrat and I am a republican. We were as opposite as any two people could be. But it was those differences, and our mutual respect for one another that made our relationship so special. If a partner wants you to change anything about yourself, then you are not who they want. If they cannot accept you, then find someone who will.

no. If you have a problem with each others religion then maybe you weren't really that compatible. A persons religion is very important to them. It helps to find someone who believes the same way you do.

No, it's too late for me, My relationship with God is not a religion. But something that is. It is not for me to change. I would however try to show her the way to a personal relationship of her own.

No If my spouse cannot accept my beliefs than there is no hope for us to even be married.Don't get me wrong he can believe is what ever he wants to but he will have to accept the way I worship.

No.
If I was sincere in my religious beliefs then I wouldn't be able to change for someone else, and if I did I am afraid I would resent them for it.
