Unless one or both parties are religious fanatics, it isn't important at all.

Depends on whether or not religion is important in the lives of the individuals.
I think "Respect" is the key factor, regardless. If you have similar religious beliefs, that's easy. If you have differing religious beliefs, but can RESPECT the beliefs of your spouse (instead of making it a constant battle to convert or change the other), then it shouldn't be a problem.

Marriage is sacrament, in our (my husband and mine too) religion.. A Christ-centered relationship gives direction to both husband and wife. We got married in a church and vowed to love each other infront of God no matter what happens.
"What God has united can never be parted by any man..." We don't believe in divorce and annulments because they are just manmade solutions to get out of a wrong choice... Marriage is a very big deal... before we entered marriage, we had a lot of counselings about problems that we will face and how to solve it with just pure practically and sense, and if we really want to marry... (live our lives together and build a good family...)
I consider our marriage as a blessing.. I met the one who completes me and the one i can grow old with...
Love is what keeps the world go round... :D

It's only as important in marriage as it is important to the individual people involved. When the two people have incompatible viewpoints, and feel equally strongly about them, it's a deal-breaker, IMO.

its as important as the couple makes it! it is in my life cuz i married a muslim.....i didnt really do the religion thing before hand and if i did i was christian....after meeting him i started reading about this religion and found great peace with it so i am converting to it..he never forced me into learning it or told me i had to become muslim in order to marry him, i appreciate that he let me have freedom, and i found it on my own.

When I first got married I did not think that it was very important but now that we have children I think it is very important.My husband and I are always contraticting ourselves when the kids ask questions about faith.

I would say if religion is important for either party.. then it is important... if it's not.. then it shouldn't matter in marriage either.
